There is a very big problem with embedded files in TW. They need double the size, because they are base64 encoded
I did move the big files out of the way and started TW like this. It starts up in about 5 seconds. Down from 30+
cd /path/to/HugeWikiExample/
tiddlywiki.cmd +plugins/tiddlywiki/filesystem +plugins/tiddlywiki/tiddlyweb demo --build index
npm run dev
seems to rebuild the whole thing everytime I run it. ... I want to build once and then only run it for testing. How do you do that?
I did a bit more testing ... and the whole tag-pill macro rendering seems to be a huge problem. With an init and the CDDA tiddler open. While rendering the links the parser is started 20000 times. That should not happen. we should hit the cache 20000 times.
Hi, you can run npm i
then npm run dev-html
.
Or pnpm i
then pnpm dev-html
.
- It should use _cannoical_uri and lazy-load the thing
That is true, I forget this. In my personal wiki, I use lazy-image
that also exclude the PDF. Maybe we can just remove the PDF from this repo. I was trying to reproduce the situation in my personal wiki.
pnpm dev is good for developing plugin, it auto reload to reveal changes.
I don't use files
directory, I usually use lazy-images setup. So I don't need to look at the folder, just drag everything into wiki, like how others use Notion or Obsidian, I think this make it more easy to use.
https://github.com/tiddly-gittly/HugeWikiExample/tree/master/demo/tiddlers/Files .. This directory with the huge files is a problem!
Drag & drop import into TW using huge files is a problem. .. IMO it does not matter if it is easier to use, when the whole thing is completely unusable.
So I always keep eye on lazy loading related things like https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/7014
Drag thing into wiki will add metadata to them, while files
folder may have no?
Anyway, I will comeup with some solution on this in the future.
drag & drop import may make a x.pdf and x.pdf.meta but it does not automatically use _cannonical_uri ... So your files are embedded. ... And since I did download 236MByte it did not work.
So if you want those big files, you can create a "files" directory that is at the same level as the "tiddlers" directory. .. But files have to be stored there manually and not with TW.
Everything below tiddlers/
eg: tiddlers/files
will be automatically embedded into TW and therefore cause problems.
I don't know if Saq's file-upload-plugin works with node. I think there are some posts somewhere at talk.tiddlywiki.org
I will have a try, auto add _cannonical_uri and meta file all together is what I want.
For this repo, I already remove the PDF (or maybe I should enable lazy-image, but I'm going to sleep, GN)
@linonetwo ... I did just run the dev server of this wiki using a completely new install from node.js, vscode, git, npm.
The TW server does have a filer server option. BUT it needs a
files
directory on the same level astiddlers
From my point of view, with the huge files loaded from a files directory the whole wiki should be sent over the wire in a view seconds ...
