Folks,
Sorry about the narrative approach to this Question, it is in part because
I am still climbing the TW5 learning curve hill/mountain. It relates to
more advanced uses of NodeJS, but not core or plugin development
(necessarily).
*Background*
I have implemented most tiddlywiki Hosting platforms as I learn more and
Prepare for Firefox 57. I have NodeJS running on my Windows Desktop, My
Synology NAS, My Mac Mini, Android phone and tablet. all Great stuff.
TiddlyServer also allows me "serve" both TiddlyWiki files (including those
I can also host through ISS WebDav, and Node Installs off the same address
and Port.
Now I indend to migrate a 17Mb TWC into multiple TW5's, build my own
plugins (later), Tiddler Bundles, TiddlyWIki Solutions and editions.
*I have a lot of ideas so if someone wants an interesting project just ask.*
I have done a rudimentary search and not found any documentation for using
the multi-file tiddler structure of Node JS such that it may be able to
support me on this journey into tiddlywiki as an environment, and even then
what I find documentation is more about contributing to the core, or
serious plugin development, something I hope to do one day, but I know my
limitations. For now I want to see how I can exploit the *NodeJS* solution
to help *manage a complex environment.*
I have explored and continue to explore drag and drop, import export,
bundles and building (rudimentary) plugins. However I have now a multitude
of File based tiddlywikis and there are management issues. In fact some of
the solutions I plan to develop relate to managing multiple file based
tiddlywikis. But I expect NodeJS may help me.
*The Question(s)*
- *Can anyone point me to some resources on using NodeJS in more
sophisticated ways?*
- *Is what I am thinking possible?*
1. Can I create a set of structured folders that NodeJS will search to
build TiddlyWiki editions, such that I can place shared tiddlers or
plugins
in a one or more locations that some editions use and not others?
2. Imagine for example I have say project related TiddlyWikis and
Task Management TiddlyWikis, could both point to plugins and Tiddlers
they
Share, but other editions do not?
3. or a Folder of Snipit tiddlers the Editor uses that all Wikis can
access,
4. if I updated a plugin or shared tiddler could the different wikis
now all see the update?
5. Using this method could I have a tiddler store of Tiddlers that
acted like a message queue that other wikis could use and respond to?
6. Could I have a library of plugins I collect that I can selectively
refer to?
*Because I do not know what I don't know, this Question is very broad,
perhaps once I have a little more detail I can start new threads on
particular methods.*
*Please note: I have a very systematic way of looking at things and love
re-usability, de-duplication, maximising possibilities and minimsing
compromise.*
Thank in Advance
Tony
