Using node server

[Furicle]

I have installed Tiddly Wiki as per Installing TiddlyWiki on Node.js  on my Windows laptop.
I can see the wiki at localhost:8080 and it works.

How do I relaunch the server either on log in or power up?  That's not in that guide....

Use or create a Batch or cmd file with the same thing you would enter to launch your tiddlywiki in nodeJS and either place it in Startup or windows Task scheduler

I am about to go on the road for 3 hours but I can help further later.

Hi,

You can drop the start commands into a batch file and create a shortcut
in the autostart folder.

open a text editor.
copy the start commands into.
then save it to filename.bat.
filename can be anything.
don't forget to add the extension .bat.
then save it.
then check in the location you dropped it if this extension is really
bat and not txt.
notepad is pretty picky about such things.
locate your batch file in the file explorer and right click it.
click create shortcut.
copy that shortcut to your clipboard with ctrl+c
then you can enter
shell:startup
into the address bar. the startup folder will open.
hit ctrl
+v to insert the shortcut.
after each start the tw5 server will start then.

Maybe you'll also add some lines to your batch file on top which cd in
the right directory.
i will create a portable tw5 server again pretty soon.
its a quick and easy job.

Oh and hello all the old and new people.

Greetings from Austria,
Simon

Hi,

Not directly an answer to your question, but may be interesting too.

I did create 3 videos, that show, how to save local file TiddlyWikis with windows IIS webdav.

The IIS server will be launched automatically with your system, once it is enabled and configured.
IMO it's a simple and robust setup, that works out of the box on windows systems.

Also see: https://tiddlywiki.com/#Saving%20via%20WebDAV

have fun!

Thanks Mario
That looks interesting too.
I'm trying on shoes to see what fits :-)

And thanks Tony M, Simon - that's about what I figured. 
It would be nice to have even a one liner added to the main tiddly wiki page indicating you have to do something like that.
