Thanks Danielo, I had missed that, and I think it's *huge*. Previously, IFTTT was a bit of a Silicon Valley walled garden, only allowing mainstream corporate services to be connected together. That was still pretty useful, but now that we can post arbitrary data, we can do some really interesting things with TiddlyWiki.
The system relies on secret keys that are unique to your account. We can re-use the existing password mechanism to store the secret key in the browser's LocalStorage so that it doesn't need to be embedded in the HTML file. We need a startup daemon that listens for the `tm-ifttt` message. Message parameters would provide the event name, value1, value2 and value3 values that IFTTT supports. The handler would simply perform an HTTP POST of the parameters to a URL incorporating the secret key. The kind of thing one could do would be: * A commenting system whereby new comments appear as text files in your personal dropbox (one would need some code to harvest them and convert them to .tid files) * An analytics tracker that logs user navigation to Dropbox * Create a TiddlyWiki user interface to your home automation system (there's very good support for home automation) I'm very happy to help and encourage anyone who is inspired to implement this, Best wishes Jeremy On Tue, Jun 23, 2015 at 9:32 PM, Danielo Rodríguez <[email protected]> wrote: > Check it out here: > https://ifttt.com/maker > > It is able to make any post or get request and also receive them.
