If nothing changed, the StoryList isn't updated. If you changed something, that should have updated the list, you found a but.

So it would be nice if you tell us, so that we can fix it.

By rebuild are you referring which tiddlers are open and closed on the storyboard or the actual contents of $__StoryList.tid on the server?

Hi Captain Packers,

One thing you might do instead of rebuilding/reloading/reputting $:/StoryList is to merely alter $:/core/ui/PageTemplate/story so that it loads your tiddler as soon as it is present, in addition to the story list.

Cheers,

I believe I'm looking to updat the contents of $__StoryList.tid. If I drop a new .tid file in the folder that I created on a mobile device, I can't see the new tiddler in the TiddlyWiki unless I restart the server. I'm wondering if there is a way to refresh $__StoryList.tid without having to restart the server, and if that would make the new tiddlers appear/viewable.

How would you do that?

The $:/StoryList tiddler is not responsible for updating anything in the node server context. It's a tiddler, that contains a list field, that represents the "story list" .. that's all.

At the moment it's not possible to insert tiddlers from other devices into the filesystem, without restarting the server. .. There is no code in the server that watches the directory, reloads the server and notifies the clients.

I am able to insert tiddlers without restarting the server by injecting javascripts in a Chrome extension.

You got to restart the server. That does not mean you have to do it manually. Try using something like nodemon to watch the folder and restart when there are changes.

Captain Packers,

I was thinking about something like replacing

<$list filter="[list[$:/StoryList]]" history="$:/HistoryList" template="$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate" editTemplate="$:/core/ui/EditTemplate" storyview={{$:/view}} emptyMessage={{$:/config/EmptyStoryMessage}}/>

by

<$list filter="[title[Your Incoming Tiddler Title]!haschanged[]] [list[$:/StoryList]]" history="$:/HistoryList" template="$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate" editTemplate="$:/core/ui/EditTemplate" storyview={{$:/view}} emptyMessage={{$:/config/EmptyStoryMessage}}/>

Not quite satisfying as it would mean that your incoming tiddlers would be sticky on the page until you change them in some ways. But maybe there is a more clever use of the filters.

Cheers,

X.

Captain Packers is right to say that one can insert tiddlers in a running wiki server. For instance, consider this command:

curl -v  -H "Content-Type: application/json"  -X PUT \
       --data-binary '{ "text": "Some content above the line", "tags": "[[incoming content]] $:/tags/AboveStory"}' \
         "http://127.0.0.1:8080/recipes/default/tiddlers/MyTiddler"

If a wiki server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8080, issuing this command in a shell will surely create (or replace) a tiddler which title is MyTiddler and which content will appear above the Story List.

More interesting things can be done as soon as you add fields to be processed by a template :

curl -v  -H "Content-Type: application/json"  -X PUT \
       --data-binary '{ "text": "{{||A template to handle data}}", "tags": "[[incoming data]] $:/tags/AboveStory", "data1":"whatever" }' \
         "http://127.0.0.1:8080/recipes/default/tiddlers/MyDataTiddler1"

Now, I'm not sure that placing such tiddlers in the Story List is a good idea. If we want them to be visible as soon as they are loaded, we may be better off giving them a tag that make them appear at a known place (like on the side bar).
