[tw] Re: [TW5] Introducing a simple BarChart plugin

[Jed Carty]

I have been looking at how to update this plugin and I posted an 
experimental version 
here http://ooktech.com/jed/ExampleWikis/BarChart/#Bar%20Chart%20Creator

You can make the charts vertical or horizontal and you can make the 
sections into multiple bars instead of just a single bar and I made a tool 
that lets you design your chart and outputs the widget code so you don't 
have to remember everything. That may be my solution to how complex things 
get when you start adding options to something like this.

[tw] Re: TW5 - Another RSOD suggestion

[Thomas Elmiger]

Hi all 

Here’s what I would prefer – something in the direction of: 

---
  DON’T PANIC. There is a problem but it’s likely not a disaster. 

TO BE SURE it is recommended you create a fresh backup of your TiddliWiki right 
now using your file explorer. 
AFTER you did the backup, you can try to save this wiki. 

AVOID DATA LOSS: close and reopen this wiki now and check the content. If 
something is wrong, return to your last backups. 

---

Stay safe, 
Thomas

Hello everyone,
I have finally moved TW5 in the Sky for Dropbox to a new, easier to find
URL.

https://twcloud.github.io/tw5-dropbox/

If anyone else would like to host their cloud connecting app on this site,
let me know and I will setup a repository for you. I'm also going to add
Jeremy as an admin to the organization.

Thanks,

[tw] Re: Like TiddlySpot but using https.

Hello Lost Admin!

I'm not sure I understand - is your intention to create a service like more 
or less exactly like TiddlySpot, but with https?

...and to run it like cousins Simon and Daniel Bard do with TiddlySpot is 
run, i.e public, free, reliable etc

That would be incredibly generous. But I must assume I misunderstand 
something because that would be quite a moral commitment considering how 
people truly rely on TiddlySpot. Of course, your project is interesting 
even if do, in deed, misunderstand your intention! ;-) ;-)

So, if I may, exactly what *is* you intention?

Thanks!

Hi PMario,

thanks four your answer.

But StoryList does not store the tiddler which were opened and closed 
afterwards. I think HistoryList is exactly what I need. A list of tiddlers 
which were opened. Even if they were closed afterwards they are stored in 
HistoryList. But I could not get a list from HistoryList to show in SideBar 
or anywhere else.

I do think that is something in all this. Perhaps it not so cut and dry?

Personally I am very interested in Danielo's ongoing project of a TW that 
BOTH can auto-save into Browser Storage (into an automatically created 
local database), rather than using the Download Saver mechanisms.  It can 
also be synced with a remote database. Once that is done you can use it 
from more than one location. Basic info here: https://noteself.github.io/

I haven't had time, nor have I the competence, to thoroughly test it, but I 
think it is very suggestive to see something concrete like that actually 
seems to work.

Its in some ways, potentially, a demonstration of how the "on-line" and 
"off-line" can be crossed. I think its interesting to look at in the 
context of Jeremy's comments.

Josiah

[tw] Re: Voicing Futures ...

[A M Alfaro]

Arlen,


I'm a part of the minority which cannot use USB sticks at work. Security 
recognizes and blocks flash drives. The more restrictive my environment 
becomes, the more I dread the day I can't even get TW at work. I tired to 
email a copy of my project management wiki to myself at home and it was 
blocked based on content and file size. I imagine one day I won't be able 
to email myself an empty wiki from home to work, which is what I did to get 
it last month. I could get to the website but couldn't download an empty 
copy.

---

Andrew,


I think I get the analogy you're trying to make, but I believe the premise 
is slightly off because Excel is a complete package, meaning it's designed 
from top to bottom for all "parts" to work together. Tiddlywiki and the 
browsers are not designed that way. The only way to solve that would be for 
Jeremy to repackage the single file application as that "Excel"-type of 
program. I don't know anything about the JSON side of TW, so it could be 
that it provides this type of solution (?).


Also for clarification, TiddlyFox is just a FireFox addon that smooths the 
user's saving experience. It isn't a tool being manipulated by TW which 
seems to be how you're describing it. In fact, what you're describing as 
the future of TW is already in trouble and continues to be TW's recurring 
problem. Browser security continues to evolve in ways that close off the 
function TW needs to smoothly save over itself. That elegance is at the 
mercy of the browser developers. 




I completely get that mine is an unpopular opinion but I'm not seeing any 
way around it: Jeremy's fallback measure of using the Save dialog will 
become the only available way of saving TW in the future. I don't think of 
it as inelegant; I think TW users just aren't used to it and are loathe to 
accept it. Like I said before, we got used to a different experience. We 
have the expectation of it. Maybe it's time we reset our expectations on 
this one thing? Is it truly so disruptive to the user experience? I don't 
think so.

>From my point of view, it's actually much easier now that TW "falls back" 
to the Save dialog.

Peace,
Anita

I don't think that it is too complex considering that most of the time you

means that the target audience will be people who are at least willing to 
play with how tiddlywiki works.

Re: [tw] TW5 - Another RSOD suggestion

[@TiddlyTweeter]

Ciao PMario

Before I reply on your suggested message (I need think about it a little 
bit first)... I'd like to make an observation ...

I think one of the reasons its not so easy to get the message exactly right 
is awareness that users are likely, unfortunately, NOT routinely 
backing-up. So the message of advised steps also has to kinda deal with 
that. BUT should it? IF we were SURE they were backing up then the message 
could be a lot simpler I think.

BECAUSE I run redundant backup that detects changes in a TW every 30 
minutes or so I would rarely follow your suggested steps. I'd just close 
(without saving) and re-open & if the problem came back I'd revert to a 
previous version.

I suppose what I am saying is *I don't see why TW creators should have to 
have the hassle of laying out complex steps because users are lazy about 
backup*. In a way I think they should ASSUME people back-up. But also give 
alerts, in the "Red Screen", to encourage them to do that if they aren't 
already. 

Backup is universally understood as a basic principle. Its likely one of 
the most straight-forward concepts you encounter in TW. I don't like to see 
you developers over-apologise when Users do need to take some ordinary, 
understandable, responsibility too.

I hope it is clear what I am saying. That whilst reminders of backups are a 
very good idea, especially in "crash" messages, I'd NOT try to address 
salvage in every post-crash scenario ultra-carefully. It just gets too 
complicated. IF you had decent recent backups already you'd simply bail out.

Best wishes
Josiah

That's the problem. We actually don't know, if the system is in a "fatal 
state". ... but it could be. 

 So opening the file explorer and create a backup, before the next save 
may be the best choice. ... I'll probably include this advice.

I like that. Backups are always good.

So the right thing to do is:


  DON'T PANIC. There is a problem but it is likely not a disaster. 

   - Please open your file explorer and create a backup of your TW file. 
   - *Don't save, create the backup .. Now!*
   - After you did the backup, you can save this wiki. 
   - *To avoid data loss, please close and reopen the TiddlyWiki.*
   - Check the content.
   
  NOTA BENE: Please make sure that you regularly backup your data,
  because failures do happen & it would be a great shame if you lost 
your work.

what do you think. ... To complicated?

Absolutely, this would be a central consideration. It would be very useful

Re: [tw] TW5 - Another RSOD suggestion

[@TiddlyTweeter]

Ciao all

Just a side comment of my experience as a user who doesn't really know what 
those messages mean other than "close it & restart." :-) 

The impact on me when I was first using TW of Red Messages: they got me in 
a hot sweat. Till I realised they are rarely fatal. My single biggest issue 
has never been them. Its been browser crashes corrupting the TW file.

To be honest its the *AESTHETICS of the warnings* as much as anything that 
scared me, and likely for others who have no clear idea what is happening. 

TBH, I'd rather have a message like ...








*  DON'T PANIC. There is a problem but it is likely not a disaster, just a 
small glitch.  To be safe, please close the window this TW is in and 
reopen it.  NOTA BENE: Please make sure that you always regularly 
backup your TiddlyWiki   because failures do happen & it would be a 
great shame if you lost your work.*A message something like that.

Having the message in Glaring Red may feel like a good idea. I think a 
softer colour like Light Pink would be just as good without the extreme 
aesthetic alert factor.

Just some thoughts.

Best wishes
Josiah

That's a good thing to read. I just wanted to be sure, that there is some 
discussion going on.

As I wrote, that should be possible too. ... But I'm not sure, how you 
would want to implement it. .. IMO for a "low latency" system, it's

[tw] Re: Like TiddlySpot but using https.

[Lost Admin]

Other than the official TiddlyWiki (empty.html from TiddlyWiki.com) are 
there any other current wiki templates that I should think about including?

Is anyone interested in playing beta-tester?

Before I go public, I've got two more items on my must-have list:

1) encrypt the passwords in the password database.

2) re-do the internal structure for storing wikis (I just don't like it as 
it sits now).

And on the should-have list:

1) Give people the ability to change their password

2) Give people the ability to delete their account

3) Give people the ability to re-set their wiki (basically delete and 
re-sign-up in one shot)


On, and one last question. Does anyone actually care?

Re: [tw] TW5 - Another RSOD suggestion

[tejjyid]

That's my experience too. I've never seen it when it wasn't my fault. 
That's why I feel the apology is awkward, because mainly it will be the 
user at fault. The communication is well-intentioned, but it doesn't match 
the pragmatics of the situation. That kind of mismatch is what I was 
looking to avoid. But look, I don't want to waste your time on it. As a 
final compromise/suggestion, how about "Sorry, but this might be serious. 
To protect your data..." But I will absolutely be happy with your final 
call. Otherwise this kind of discussion can go on for years!

Thanks for taking the time over this.

Andrew

[tw] Re: Voicing Futures ...

[tejjyid]

I'll try again, but my posts keep getting deleted...if anyone can help me 
that it'd be appreciated...

I don't think it's right to characterise the problems as being with the 
single file architecture, because I don't really see TW as a single file 
architecture, any more than Excel. TW is a program and a data file, as is 
Excel. The difference is that the program for TW is called the browser. We 
think about the TW program as being that part of the data in the file that 
gets executed, but that's really analogous to VBA code. 

*Program*   - 
File
Excel
   Application functions
   Enables VBA- 
user code (VBA, formulas); data
   File IO
Browser
   Enables JS - 
application functions (JS, macros, widgets); user code (ditto); data
   ?FIle IO?

  
The problem occurs because the TW driving program, the browser, is not 
longer fit for purpose. If Excel stopped saving spreadsheets, that'd 
obviously be a pretty major disaster. TW, though, doesn't control the 
browser, so we have to take our lumps when it does stop saving.

I switched to using Firefox for TW (from Chrome) because of the extension 
which allowed overwrite saves. The save(n+1) option is rubbish; I mean it's 
doable, obviously, but it is not convenient. It's not a user-winning 
experience. If that goes, I guess I'll switch to using Tiddlyfox, which 
seems to be OK. It's the program TW controls which can run TW and also 
save. It's a pity to lose the "elegance" of running with a program that is 
already readily available, but in terms of offline user experience , 
downloading a program, installing it and running it is not a big challenge 
for most people. 

I think the future will be TFox for standalone; browser for online; Node 
for the minority; offline browser for the rest, and I don't really see a 
problem with that. It's more user-friendly, IMO, than running TW on top of 
a database. No matter how hard people work to make the underlying 
technology transparent, I think the extra complexity will eventually show 
up. I don't think that's the right place to invest the technical talent.

Cheers, Andrew

In TiddlyWiki, themes determine the layout of the display but the colour scheme 
is determined by the palette. They are set independently so that users can mix 
and match the layout they want with the colour scheme they want.

In the control panel “Appearance” tab you’ll find a list of available palettes. 
“Contrast (Dark)” is a built-in dark theme, but you can adjust things with the 
built-in palette editor.

Best wishes

Jeremy.

[tw] [TW5] Hours Filter - as a counterpart to the Days Filter (suggestion)

[The Bo]

Hey guys,

I was thinking about a hours filter which is working same like the days 
filter to show tiddlers I created or modified the last x hours.
It was quite simple to change some parts of the days core filter. So I want 
to share my result:


$:/core/modules/filters/hours.js

/*\
title: $:/core/modules/filters/hours.js
type: application/javascript
module-type: filteroperator

Filter operator that selects tiddlers with a specified date field within a 
specified hour interval.

\*/
(function(){

/*jslint node: true, browser: true */
/*global $tw: false */
"use strict";

/*
Export our filter function
*/
exports.hours = function(source,operator,options) {
var results = [],
fieldName = operator.suffix || "modified",
hourInterval = (parseInt(operator.operand,10)||0),
hourIntervalSign = $tw.utils.sign(hourInterval),
targetTimeStamp = (new Date()).setMinutes(0,0,0) + 
1000*60*60*hourInterval,
isWithinHours = function(dateField) {
var sign = $tw.utils.sign(targetTimeStamp - (new 
Date(dateField)).setMinutes(0,0,0));
return sign === 0 || sign === hourIntervalSign;
};

if(operator.prefix === "!") {
targetTimeStamp = targetTimeStamp - 1000*60*60*hourIntervalSign;
source(function(tiddler,title) {
if(tiddler && tiddler.fields[fieldName]) {

if(!isWithinDays($tw.utils.parseDate(tiddler.fields[fieldName]))) {
results.push(title);
}
}
});
} else {
source(function(tiddler,title) {
if(tiddler && tiddler.fields[fieldName]) {

if(isWithinHours($tw.utils.parseDate(tiddler.fields[fieldName]))) {
results.push(title);
}
}
});
}
return results;
};

})();

type: application/javascript
module-type: filteroperator


Usage:
e.g. [hours[-2]]

Is there a need for this filter? Are there any suggestions?

Regards,
The Bo
