How to save TiddlyWiki remotely ...

[laurent...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I'm newbie using Tiddly Wiki, and I'd like to use it remotely, and
leave my file
on a webserver. I there a way to save it directly on the webserver ?
How is it possible to do that ? Do I need to configure the WebServer in
order
to do this task ? (e.g. activate the POST)

Thank's by advance ...

Trick Lo,

With standard versions of TiddlyWiki, you cannot work with your file
while it is on a remote server. You can make changes locally and
upload, or (in rare cases) you may be able to "mount" your server
volume over a virtual network (such as when it's a university
network, or a business network with VPN). In other words, you need to
be able to load TiddlyWiki over the file:// protocol in your browser,
not the http:// protocol.

There are server-hosted adaptations of TiddlyWiki -- search for
Jeremy's list of adaptations. I use ZiddlyWiki, for example, but this
requires a server running Zope. Other adaptations get TW to cooperate
with a PHP/Python system.

For most users, however, it makes more sense to figure out how to
keep a local copy and ftp it frequently to a server. There are
utilities that may help you ftp easily and quickly with any changes
you make.

Pytw is probably the easiest server side tiddlywiki to set up:

Thank's for the answer ... I'was wondering if it was possible to use
HTTP instead
of FTP because it's not always possible to use ftp (proxy/firewall used
in some
companies for instance).

I use tiddlywiki remotely by logging into my computer at home on remote desktop. This is not too hard to do if you have access to your router to open the right ports. Chrome Remote Desktop allows you to do that over your browser which bypasses the port forwarding issue.

Keep in mind that in this case, security is up to you and you need to be mindful, depending on how much access you want to have on hour home machine.
