[tw] Announcing TiddlyDesktop v0.0.9

2017-10-18 Thread Jeremy Ruston
I’m happy to announce a new release of TiddlyDesktop, including new features 
that support creating external attachments via drag and drop — in other words, 
it lets you drag a .JPG file into your TiddlyWiki and have it appear as a 
tiddler with a _canonical_uri field pointing to the original file.

I’ve had reservations about TiddlyDesktop for some time: particularly that the 
understandable pressure from users to make it as good as commercial browsers 
would become a Sisyphean task. Things change; like many others, I’ve been 
relying on TiddlyFox for all my personal work with Dropbox-based single file 
TiddlyWikis on my Mac. With its demise I plan to switch to TiddlyDesktop; if it 
works out, it should help encourage me to keep it up to date :)

This release is mainly about integrating the latest version of the underlying 
NW.js platform. Significant changes to the code were required because of many 
deep changes in NW.js itself. New features include:

• Latest Chromium features (e.g. integrated PDF viewer)
• Resolves bugs related to window positioning (e.g. quitting while 
windows are minimised) by using NW.js new built-in window handling
• Updated visual appearance for the main toolbar
• New, more distinctive application icon

You can download the new release here:

https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyDesktop/releases/tag/v0.0.9 


As usual, please exercise caution when upgrading: take careful backups and 
don’t rely on it for anything important until you’ve tested things thoroughly.

The support for external attachments takes the form of a new plugin on the 
TiddlyWiki side. I did it this way around because the external attachment 
support isn’t actually dependent upon TiddlyDesktop — it will work with any 
browser environment that provides a “path” property with the “File” object 
created during drag-and-drop operations. There are no such alternatives right 
now, but it gives us room to get things working on platforms such as Quine on 
iOS.

The new plugin is included in the latest 5.1.15-prerelease:

http://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Ftiddlywiki%2Fexternal-attachments
 

Note that the plugin requires the matching version of the core to operate 
properly; it can’t be used with older versions of TiddlyWiki.

Feedback and questions are welcome,

Best wishes

Jeremy.
