Question

Dear TWiki hackers,

I want to use TWiki for some room booking application. I've got one topic per Room and a ListItem like : * : hh:mm-hh:mm - within each topic. With a nice %CALENDAR% ...

I try to summarize in another topic the day use for all the rooms. Using I manage to find used room but I failed extracting specifics lines from the ListItem matching "room booking for today". I tried hard to read doc, support, ... but failed.

I am not sure I can do it with because it is topic based search so I tried with

Warning: Can't find topic ""."" selective include :

Warning: Can't find topic Support.Room1 <-- this is the last try but only manage to get the whole list It might be a problem with my use of regex or my understanding or

Warning: Can't find topic "".""

As far as I undersand it with

Warning: Can't find topic ""."" I can extract par of the text but not various lines like :

• 24 Jul 2003 - 8:30-10:30 blabla1
• 25 Jul 2003 - 8:31-10:31 blabla2
• 24 Jul 2003 - 10:30-12:30 blabla3

If today il 24 Jul I want to extract line 1 and 3 but not 2 of this specific topic.

Tanks for help !

Answer

With a FormattedSearch and $pattern(.*(\s\*\s24 Jul 2003[^/n/r]+).*) you only get one entry per topic.

This is not yet in the core code, but you would need MultipleSearchesInSameTopic.
