I think it would be easier to implement. I'll have a closer look. 

Tobias seems to prefer a). So we'll see :)


I have no preference at all.
If a message is the best way to do it,
i.e. "tm-open-external-link" or some such,
then we should do that.

Is that what you have in mind?

At the moment 2 clicks are needed. Tobias opened a github issue 
, which is discussed 
currently. Basically there are 2 possibilities. ... 

a) We can intercept the "external link" click, which needs new core 
functionality
b) We can add a new "button message", which also needs new core 
functionality. 

So the 1-click action is discussed, but not available yet. I personally 
prefer b). I think it would be easier to implement. I'll have a closer 
look. Tobias seems to prefer a). So we'll see :)

Yea. That's why it defaults to "--". It would be possible to customize the 
default text with a feld eg: default-comment. ... But at the moment "--" is 
hard-coded.

That should be possible, since the core already has that functionality. So 
we just need to experiment a bit.

That's right.  Scheduled lists can be created using different tags. eg: 
checkMonday, checkTuesday,  and create different lists / tables. ...

Good! As you can see, you raised a problem, that is interesting and seems 
to be useful for the core. There is no immediate solution, but there may be 
one :)

have fun!

Apologies, I completely missed your post with the downloadable attachment 
and was responding to a different post. I've now tried it out. First, let 
me say *thanks*! 

I was initially slightly baffled. Instead of 

URL date

You've made

tiddlername comment journalbutton url

and took me a few moments to figure this out (I didn't even immediately 
recognise the add journal entry button, sorry) and also I had to see how to 
add a field (I have not yet done anything like this with TW5; this isn't a 
complaint, just to be clear about how idiotproof instructions need to be!).

Ok, so I created tiddlers and added fields with urls and then clicked on 
the links for the urls. The web page opened, the journal was updated, but 
no timestamp was recorded. Then I tried adding a comment and the timestamp 
was recorded ok. Am I right in thinking that a one step action isn't 
possible? Because, well, I don't need to record comments every time I visit 
a web site! Apart from that it seems very workable and it certainly does 
what I need. Yes, the last table looks great.

Now that I can see it working it crosses my mind that it might be nice to 
have a "days since" column as well as or instead of the date, but I could 
live without it. This would be handy for things one looks at without any 
schedule -- just using intuition -- where the actual date doesn't matter 
that much.

Bravo and thanks again! I'll be happy to try any further iteration. This is 
something I have wanted FOREVER so I'm really very pleased.

That's perfectly fine. In TW tagging is a very powerful feature. Every 
tiddler can have several tags. eg: if you tag a tiddler: default and add 
the following filter to the *ControlPanel: Info: Basic: Default tiddlers  
*setting: 
[tag[default]]  it will open those tiddlers every time you open your TW. 

So you can tag a "Dashboard" tiddler, that lists your tasks, and lets you 
easily jump to other dashboards. 

Those dashboards can display any filtered list, that uses the link-journal.

As you may have found out in the conversation here and on github, it's not 
possible at the moment to automatically trigger tw-action events if you 
click an external link. The core doesn't provide that function (yet). ... 
That's why I did create my proof of concept in the way I did, to work 
around the existing limitations, and offer something, that should work, as 
close as possible to your OP. Additionally,

That's the way I did it as close as possible. You just have to use your 
imagination, to get the stuff going. ... and off course you should at least 
test, what someone else prepared "just for you" in his free time. 

As I wrote:

Let me rephrase this: "No feedback" -> No changes!  ... It's as simple as 
that.

Maybe I've misunderstood... are you suggesting this: changing each link to

I haven't had time to futz with this. Will try later today.

No, I don't want a journal equivalent in TiddlyWiki of the browser history. 
Let me walk you through it by describing doing manually what I'd like to 
automate. Let's say it's Monday, and the 1st day of the month and I wish to 
do some weekly and monthly visits to some web sites. 

First I go to the Weekly Tiddler, and I find for the sake of illustration, 
a few URLs, each with a date after it:

ULR1 date
ULR1 date
etc.

I click on each URL and then go back and edit the date manually. Then 
repeat for the Monthly tiddler. I don't actually do this but if Tiddlywiki 
could set the date automatically I would organize my bookmarks using 
TiddlyWiki.

Re: [tw] Re: TiddlyWiki app idea

[PJO]

Small, addendum, having looked at the github discussion: I don't need to 
*count* visits or keep a history (I'd archive the browser history if I 
did). I just want to know when I last visited a web page.

I keep some of my bookmarks in TiddlyWiki and that works pretty well apart 
from not tracking which sites I visited when -- so I've never scaled this 
up as much as I'd like. 

Why am I doing this? I am trying to bring a little additional order to some 
of my reading. It's a January experiment, that's all. I often find that I 
haven't checked in with some sites for too long (and I do not want to 
consume RSS or anything in the meantime).*

Maybe down the road it would be interesting to combine this 
 (plugin 
for pulling pinboard bookmarks into tiddlers), a Tiddlywiki hosted on 
node.js, and perhaps a browser plugin for updating the Tiddlywiki (that is, 
the date of any site bookmarked if visited without clicking on it in the 
wiki). But for now I'll settle for manual curation and a date that updates 
when an adjacent link is clicked! :-)


*This is something I've wanted to do anyway for a long time but, FWIW, I 
did recently have the experience of finding that I didn't discover known 
bugs in a security system which I might have discovered ahead of what 
turned out to be a false alarm event, and not a burglarly, if I had 
realised how long it was since I lasted visited a particular site.

[tw] Re: TiddlyWiki app idea

[BJ]

I have a plugin that allow links to be clicked:

http://bjtools.tiddlyspot.com/#ClickAction

you could use it like this: (you can open a new tiddler at 
http://bjtools.tiddlyspot.com/ and paste the code below to try it)

\define datedlink(x)
<$button setTo="v" set="$x$"><$text text={{$x$!!title}}/><$view 
field="modified" format="date" template={{$:/language/Tiddler/DateFormat}}/>

<$click state="$x$" text="v"/> 
\end

all the best BJ

Yea, 
IMO that would be a good solution. is tm-open-window 
http://tiddlywiki.com/#WidgetMessage%3A%20tm-open-window  able to do this?

Re: [tw] Re: TiddlyWiki app idea

[PMario]

At the moment the "record-comment" macro allows to creates a log-entry 
every minute. This is accomplished with the <> macro. 
The macro can be found in the test-filter  tiddler. 

\define record-comment()
<$action-setfield $tiddler=<> $index=<> $value={{!!comment}}/>
<$action-setfield $tiddler=<> $field=comment $value="--"/>
\end

if you want to have 1 second granularity just change the second line to 

\define record-comment()
<$action-setfield $tiddler=<> $index=<> $value={{!!comment}}/>
<$action-setfield $tiddler=<> $field=comment $value="--"/>
\end


If you want to keep the comment just delete the 3rd line. like so: 

\define record-comment()
<$action-setfield $tiddler=<> $index=<> $value={{!!comment}}/>
\end

have fun!

uups, forgot to talke about the workflow :)

For me it is important to have a possibility to add a comment to every 
journal entry. 

1 add comment
2 click add journal entry
3 open link. 

or  just 3 open link, if you don't want to add a journal. 
or just use 1 and 2 without 3 ... and so on 

have fun!

Re: [tw] Re: TiddlyWiki app idea

[PMario]

Hi PJO,

*Important: Use a backup of your TW, to play with this concept.*

I did create a proof of concept, to play around with the input 
possibilities and a decent display structure, that I think could be useful. 

The attachment contains a file, that you can download and drag and drop 
import into your TW. 
It contains several files. 


test-filter ... main tiddler to play with. It conains 5 different "views", 
where the last one looks promising for me. 

google-link... test journal 1
tiddlywiki-link  ... test journal 2   To create a URL, that should be 
tracked, just create a *tiddler named *eg:  x-link, *tag it*: track   and 
add a *field *named: url: https:/example.com   Tiddlers tagged: track will 
contain the journal. 

index-text-template ... template to display timestamp as plain text
table-template ... table row template, kind of useful

link-journal-styles ... simple style sheet.

li-template  ... list template, very rough, just for experimenting. 
li-template-1 ... list template, very rough, just for experimenting. 

The easiest way to get going is to delete stuff, that you don't like. Just 
keep what you want :)

Feedback is very welcome! .. So I can iterate and try to create a simple 
plugin. Templates, Styles and so on will be system tiddlers. A the moment 
everything is visible, to make debugging easy. 

have fun!
mario

I'd be happy enough to trade off right-clicking. To amplify a little 
further, probably unnecessarily, I'd be happy to have tiddlers with the 
following

1. URL date
2. URL date
3. URL date

where the date was updated whenever the corresponding URL was clicked.

Re: [tw] Re: TiddlyWiki app idea

[Jeremy Ruston]

Tracking external links can be a tricky business. For example, there's no 
JavaScript event issued if a user right clicks on a link and selects to open it 
in a new tab/window. I'd be more inclined to focus the other way around: 
constructing an action widget for opening a link in a new tab, and then using 
that within a button.

Best wishes

Jeremy

I know. But it turns out, that's not really necessary (at least for me :), 
since imo a journal mechanism always wants some comments. So the idea that 
I prefer, uses a 2 click mechanism and has much more flexibility.

Hi PJO & PMario,

I extended the ticket...

*#2711 invoke actions when clicking external link*
https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/2711 



...as follows:

Another possible solution could be to extend the core ButtonWidget 
 to allow the click event to propagate 
down to any [ext[]] it contains. Currently, this appears to be 
prevented. At least, trying the below on tb5  
using 
the calc macro doesn't work:

\define link() [ext[$(url)$]]
\define logtid() $:/logs/$(url)$

<$vars url="http://google.com;>
<$tiddler tiddler=<>>

<$button class="tc-btn-invisible">
<>
<$list filter="[has[text]]">
<$action-setfield $text=<>/>

<$list filter="[!has[text]]">
<$action-setfield $text="1"/>



<$link><$view field="title"/>



Best wishes,

Tobias.

Hi PMario,

I guess you have noticed by now that, no matter how you turn it,
there currently is no way to attach some custom button action to external 
links.
At least, that is what experimenting will make you aware of.

Hi PJO,

So if I understand it right, you want a list of links represented by 
"journal like link-buttons" 
Whenever you click a link it adds a record to the journal. 

My idea is, to use one data-tiddler per URL / journal. ... They are easy to 
create
Then use a "custom" list to create the "journal like link-buttons"
Those buttons may use action-setfield widget to populate the journal. 
...

just a rough idea, no experiments made yet. 

see: 
http://tiddlywiki.com/#ActionSetFieldWidget:DataTiddlers%20ActionWidgets%20ActionSetFieldWidget

[tw] Re: TiddlyWiki app idea

[PJO]

I'm aware of browser history, thanks.

What I was thinking of was an app that allowed me to tag a curated list of 
web sites to facilitate some kind of regular review (weekly, monthly and 
quarterly, say). No bookmarking tool I've ever seen does it. Currently one 
can add bookmarks to folders readily enough but the link doesn't get a 
last-visited date. My browser history tends to get large and then get 
wiped. I mainly use it after a browser crash to find things I hadn't 
finished reading or to find something that has come up in conversation and 
which I didn't think to bookmark earlier.

Hi, 
Just use the browser history. eg: In Firefox you have several sorting 
options: eg: By Date and Website. 
Which should pretty much do, what you want. 

I'm sure it may be worth, to have a look at some specific browser plugins, 
that show more details.

Hi PJO,

Come to think of it, perhaps the parser for external links could be 
extended like so:

[ext actions=variableName[|]]

In other words, when clicked, the actions defined in *variableName* are 
performed.

I created an issue on Github for this:

*#2711 invoke actions when clicking external link*
https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/2711

At the moment, there is no action widget for opening an external url that 
we could use inside an appropriate button to which we could bind further 
actions.

In other words, we would need (to extend) some widget first, so that it 
caters for opening external references, e.g. ActionNavigateWidget 
 or WidgetMessage: tm-navigate 
. So, we'd need a 
way to define out own click-actions for opening an external url.

Best wishes,

Tobias.
