Hi Carlos, I did an update for the loadExternalFiles plugin it is ajaxLoadExternalFiles.js<https://github.com/pmario/tw2.plugin-dev-template-node/blob/master/tests/ajaxLoadExternalFiles.js>[1] now. I did some tests with a "vanilla" apache server installation. So all files need to be sent to the client as plain/text files. The plugin converts them into tiddlers without any refactoring.
The client creates a single request for every file. So if you have many files, it may take some time to transfer them. Depending on your server response time and the internet connection. ... The plugin no creates "real tiddlers" because shadow tiddlers have limited possibilities. ... eg: Real tiddlers can have tags. There is also a new config file [2] that lets you adjust the host url setting and specify a server side file that contains a file list. ExternalFilesConfig tiddler needs to be adjusted to your needs: ! Config host: http://yourDomainName.com/dir/ list: ServerFileList log: verbose The tiddler contains a lot of additional info, but these 3 lines are the important one's. host: the last slash / is important! With the "list:ServerFileList" setting, the ExternalFiles tiddler is not needed anymore. It will only be used, if there is no *ServerFileList file on the server* With this configuration, it should be possible to - upload "anyFile.sh" - upload "ServerFileList" - reload the browser -> done So index.html is only needed if you change it. ------------ The file structure cna look like this: yourRootDir index.html ServerFileList anyFile.sh anyFile.txt ... +--shadow (dir) i-will-be-a-shadow-tiddler ... +--test (dir) i-will-be-tagged-test ... ServerFileList should look like this anyFile.sh anyFile.txt shadow/i-will-be-a-shadow-tiddler test/i-will-be-tagged-test Feedback very welcome! have fun! mario [1] https://github.com/pmario/tw2.plugin-dev-template-node/tree/master/tests [2] https://github.com/pmario/tw2.plugin-dev-template-node/blob/master/tests/content/ExternalFilesConfig.tid -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
