Hi all, I have some questions about using the Node.js version of Tiddlywiki. To give some context on the insanity I'm trying to achieve, let me give you some background first.
I use TiddlyWiki as a standalone HTML page. As my principal tools I use TiddlyWiki desktop on Mac (which has unfortunately become a bit unstable on M1, something I'll want to investigate separately) and Quine on iPad and iPhone. I have tried going the Node route a few times, but have always given up on it, as I couldn't find a good way to use it on mobile without having to download the entire wiki every time. My two main wikis are currently 10 MB and 6 MB in size, which on mobile adds up. Also I never found a good way to have those wikis offline. One slightly crazy thing I do with my wiki is that I synchronise quite a bit of data into it. For example I have a homepage generator that downloads some cartoons (storage is with `_canonical_uri` but there is still a wiki update as well) or a script that regularly puts in Google calendar events into my wiki, so that I have a natural place to put meeting notes. I have created this myself as a Python tool. When doing this, I would love for my wiki to be automatically updated in the browser, to avoid write conflicts, and even just to avoid having to remember to re-open the wiki regularly. I am aware that solving this issue with the desktop mode is going to be almost impossible, so I am assuming I'll need to migrate to the server setup. The questions that I would love your collective insights on are specifically these: 1. Is there a good iOS mobile setup with a server-side Tiddlywiki? 2. What is the best way to write to a server-side wiki programmatically? Would you write the `.tid` files directly, or use the import functionality, or something else entirely? 3. Is there a way to push changes automatically to connected clients without requiring a full wiki reload? I seem to remember having seen this at some point. Thank you for all your help.
