If there are n independent Tiddlywikis. How can I quickly locate tiddlers from any tiddlywiki to other Tiddlywikis

One possibility of this idea is to create an index of n-1 entries of other Tiddlywikis for each tiddlywiki to be searched jointly, but whether this takes up too much space

Use file:/// to index each entry,And jump to tiddler for the target version of tiddlywiki

Is there a better solution? My friends, I would be grateful

It’s very helpful. If every tiddlywiki can search for each other, does that mean that every tiddlywiki needs to install this plugin SearchWikis, download the list of indexes one by one, and find a way to put the remaining n-1 indexes in one of the Tiddlywikis, and need to operate n times?

I haven’t used this plug in yet…so may be someone else who have used it or the author of the plug in @Mohammad itself may help you

Yes and No, This solution requires you to build an index on a wiki you want to make searchable, and drag that index to the wiki where you want to do the searching.

  • You don’t need the indexer on the search wiki containing the collected indexes but may as well :nerd_face:
  • Once you have the indexes and searchability you can remove the indexer component but why bother?
  • Any indexer involves choosing how much detail to include in the index.

There are way to craft links that open the wiki and search for something specifically. So after you find something in the index you can then open the wiki with the source.

Depending on what you are doing, it is also possible to search for tiddlywiki content in your file system.

I have a comprehensive set of packaged solutions, sets of tiddlers that make up a package. To support this I designed a way to create and find such packages both in tiddlywiki and in the filesystem, this includes storing additional information in my packages including keywords, description, filter listing the tiddlers involved, a wiki that owns the package and more.

Thank you very much, your idea inspired me again, I think that there is a special search software for retrieving the contents of files, DocFetcher, in the wiki syntax is very complex (time complexity), this seems to be a good way to do this task

@XYZ As far as I know @Mohammad is the Bee’s-Knees on this. Likely the best practical answer to your OP… ???

Thank you very much for the plugin link,This plug-in advocates using a master repository and n-1 slave repositories, rather than each repository being both master and slave

That is a design suggestion and a good one, however you can do what you ask.

However I use multiple wikis and do not find this nessasary. I would be happy to discuss this bigger picture with you in a zoom session. Send me a personal message if you would like to arrange this.

Thank you very much for your invitation, there may be a time difference of at least 7 hours between you and me, let me directly say the proper nouns in tiddlywiki, or the proper nouns in computer class, I may not be able to accurately express these accurate meanings without looking at the translation software. Does zoom have real-time translation function? Maybe you and I will face a situation like American pantomime, where we communicate with each other through silent, real-time codes that, if I were to speak English directly, It sounds blunt to a native speaker

We can give it a go, I communicate with a lot of ESL or English as a Second Language people here in Australia. There is some suggestion of Realtime translation but I have not researched it.

  • Perhaps we could share screens and use another translator service if necessary?

Using zoom software may require scientific Internet access, I did not find a free and high-speed network accelerator, it seems difficult to get, I only have a permanent free accelerator for github
