I figure best to have a centralized Talk thread pointing to the sub-threads in Google Groups.
For folk who don’t use Google Groups, a Talk thread of discussion might make life easier for anybody interested in this project of mine.
So this is kind of like a project portal, I suppose. Which I can update as I go along.
The plan / tasks / progress:
- Step 1: Get a TiddlyWiki instance outputting tiddler info to session storage
- Step 2: Temporarily switch to local storage, setup a second TiddlyWiki instance, and see how info from both TiddlyWiki instances shows in local storage
- Step 3: Setup BASIC Anywhere Machine programs with autostart option
- …
- Target end product !
Target end product: a TiddlyWiki instance that manages/processes two TiddlyWiki instances to compare the differences between them, with some help from a BASIC program created with BASIC Anywhere Machine.
The tentative “architecture” / constraints:
- several TiddlyWiki instances, all in “same site” domain
- TiddlyWiki that will manage/process comparison/diffs will trigger the two TiddlyWiki instances (being compared) to output their tiddler info via the help of iframes with their src parameters set to the necessary URL’s that will trigger the output processes
- BASIC program will poll session storage until it finds that both TiddlyWiki instances have completed output processes, at which point the BASIC program will process all the info in session storage
- BASIC program will put into session storage the differences found (i.e. Tiddler Titles from both TiddlyWiki instances)
- Something will trigger (going to need Eric’s timer widget) getting the two TiddlyWiki instances to output full tiddlers to session storage (only those tiddlers identified to be different
- The TiddlyWiki managing everything will then render a report
- TiddlyWiki’s to compare need a mechanism to output tiddler info to session storage
Something like that.
