I agree, it is pretty amazing. I had some initial issues getting it to work but I think that was because I tried right around the time IBM bought out Cloudant and the "set-up" process changed. Instead I started messing around with other things. I always meant to get back to it. Yesterday, I did

Hello all. Glad to see that more people is getting interested by NoteSelf. I'm sorry to read people is having some trouble. To be honest, the new Cloudant policies have hit the NS community hard. However, I have plans to mitigate this problem (see below). I want to make some clarifications

Mark et all Yesterday I installed CouchDB on My Windows 10 64bit, I have not got a noteself to connect to it yet. There seems to be a gap in the instructions on how to configure a tiddlywiki DB. This would allow me to look at the database structure that NoteSelf is using and thus determine if

I don't have any real experience using NoteSelf but I do know a bit about databases. You can have variable length columns in MySQL, each column has a type which determines the allowed content and some types have limits on the size but text columns can have variable lengths. SQL is optimised

Mark et al.. I would of thought the tiddler could be saved as a "blob", that is the fields are just more details in the tiddler, all just one big text file. They only become meaningful when they are loaded into the Tiddly-wiki which knows about fields. The question is can you have variable

Good point Tony! I suppose couch/pouch is a better match for the way TW stores data, where any tiddler could have any number of fields. But, what if you limited the number of fields exposed? Just title, caption, text, created, modified, tags and a couple extra (field1, field2). Then maybe it

Hey Tony, Thanks for your reply. As this storage model is based on a database that stores revisions inside it, my backup strategy would be to keep one or two database copies around at a time, as opposed to an .html file. Is this possible? On Monday, April 23, 2018 at 8:33:37 AM UTC-5, TonyM
