Rafael,

I am no expert on this, but if you are using a server version, the 
tiddlywiki content is already accessible via the server, by definition. Jed 
has used a similar approach to make Bob wikis multi-access so it locks a 
tiddler at a time. So there exists a method to query the server already. 
Perhaps this would be your best approach first. ie investigate either bob 
server messages" or "native Node.JS".

If you use a single file wiki there are ways to import content from that 
wiki from elsewhere, but that's not what you are looking for.

My own interest in REST API's is the opposite, and comes from the fact that 
WordPress already has many API's, custom posts and more. I wonder if a 
TiddlyWiki could store all its tiddlers in the database behind WordPress in 
its database via REST API's, in part because such an internet service is 
easy to obtain. But Then WordPress could also access the tiddler content, a 
custom post type could even give access to a tiddler independently. We 
could programaticaly generate wordpress content from a TiddlyWiki.

Best of luck in your endeavours

Remember explaining what you want without a partial solution, may get you 
further when asking questions.

Perhaps you thought REST API's was the answer, but what was the question? 
You answered this in part, but the topic title may keep people away.

Regards
Tony
