    Samples

      Output

    to create a new page:

    {{ wiki.create() }}

     

    The following demonstrates how to pass arguments to a template page.

    First, it is necessary to create a template page with the arguments wished to be rendered.

    For this example, this template page is used.

    The path: user.homepage.path instructs the function to create a page at your user page.

    Second, the function below is edited into a regular page:

    {{ wiki.create{path: user.homepage.path, template:"Test Wiki.Create", 
args:{first:"Hello World", second:2}} }}

    Could someone expound a little on
    args map (optional, default: nil) request arguments to pass to new page (8.05.1 or later)

    This looks intriguing but I'm not really sure what I can send to it.

    @melder Any idea why this fails? (10.0.7 Core installation)
    {{ wiki.create( label: "Create Progress Report", template: "PMS/Project_Home_Page", title: page.title" - Progress Report" ) }}

    @SteveB - I've tried that, and it's still failing:
    {{ wiki.create( label: "Create Progress Report", template: "PMS/Project_Home_Page", title: page.title .. " - Progress Report" ) }}
    Gives error:

    Out of interest, how do I know which part of the expression 'column 19' is? It would help my troubleshooting..

    How do I get wiki.Create() to copy the tags from the template, or even to apply tags specified as a parameter? The template's tags (either genuine tags or in edit: template:tag-insert code) are copied ok if I create pages using the 'New Page' button and select the template from the gallery, but they don't come across if I use wiki.Create(). Can I pass the tags I want in the arguments? How then do I get them to be applied to the resulting page? There should perhaps be a "Tags" parameter for wiki.Create() ?
