I spent a lot of time messing around and searching the internet to try to
learn how to make an http request. This is the what I've managed to come up
with:
console.log('pleasework starting');
var http = require('http');
http.post = require('http-post');
var newTidText = '{' +
'"text": "Tiddler text",' +
'"title": "WillThisWork",' +
'"type": "text/vnd.tiddlywiki"' +
'}';
//var newTid = JSON.parse(newTidText);
http.post('http://127.0.0.1:8080/recipes/default/tiddlers/WillThisWork',
newTidText, function(res){
res.setEncoding('utf8');
res.on('data', function(chunk) {
console.log(chunk);
});
});
I commented out JSON.parse because I think it might not be necessary, but
I'm not sure. I found a program to watch network traffic, but I can't seem
to do anything that this program will respond to.
So in terminal, I do:
node pleasework.js
And it gives the output:
pleasework starting
but still, I don't think anything is going through to my TiddlyWiki server.
Meanwhile, whenever I do anything in my TiddlyWiki, the program picks it up
and shows me all of the details. So I know exactly what I am looking for,
but there must be something missing in my javascript code.
What am I missing?
