Changes to tiddlers are not saved #2

I try to run it locally with npm start and I deployed it to heroku. When I make change to an existing tiddler or add a new one, it's not saved to the file system. The only file that's changed is $:/StoryList. Nothing gets logged by the server after the initial logs about loading plugins.

@adamschmideg yes this is not complete at the moment. Heroku doesn’t have a file system. This is me experimenting with what TiddlyWiki + Heroku looks like.

Any plans to make this more complete? I too am looking for a solution to this

@ohare93 I'm not working on this approach directly right now.

The Git Saver method works well with Github / Github Pages, and is the easy way to get started now, I wrote a blog post that has links to what I did https://blog.fission.codes/tiddlywiki-as-the-original-serverless/

And here's a work-in-progress template for the Drift Tiddlywiki that has instructions on Git Save mode https://github.com/bmann/drift-tiddlywiki-template

What I would like to see is individual tiddler mode, with multi user, and encryption :)

@ohare93 if you can post some more details on what you're trying to accomplish, that would be helpful!

@bmann Ah well, no problem. Thanks for the detailed reply and the link.

I believe I will be going down the host a TiddlyWiki on a Raspberry Pi route then :+1: all I am looking for is a self owned TiddlyWiki setup that I can access from anywhere, but that is also secure with the possibility of allowing other users in. Hosting it as a permanent server in node.js may be the answer I've been looking for.

Ah, the multi-users stuff can be tricky. But, if you’re on RPi, you can just use the NodeJS server and it just works.

That’s how this repo is setup, and it will work locally because you’ve got a file system.
