Hi Jon,
Reading local text files is possible, I use d3.js and some inline
JavaScript in FF57.
Download the d3.js from github, past it in a tiddler and tag with
systemConfig.
Paste the following inline js in a tiddler and provide the right
path/filename and tiddlername to save. InlineJavascriptPlugin is required.
<script>
d3.text("path/filename.txt", function(data) {
store.saveTiddler("LoadedDataD3", "LoadedDataD3", data,
config.options.txtUserName, new Date(), "tags")
})
</script>
There you go.
Have a nice day, Okido
