I’m back on this topic because I’ve encountered a problem with the LeftBar plugin. It happens on a brand new empty server edition on node.js (linux arm64, run through docker) where:
- I create a
$:/config/FileSystemPaths tiddlerwhose sole content is [!is[system]slugify[]] (not interesting but deliberately very reduced)
- I then quit the server and import my plugin with
tiddlywiki mywiki --load plugin.json
(I will copy plugin.json later on this message).
Now’ I start again the server. Thi sandwich icon of LeftBar is or the upper left corner. Then I click into it and the server crashes. See below:
syncer-server-filesystem: Dispatching 'save' task: $:/plugins/TWaddle/LeftBar/temp
node:internal/fs/utils:879

}
I suppose my plugin is not correctly installed. So I was abouts to do it the proper way with --build index and the TIDDLYWIKI_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable. But there is a problem: I don’t know how to get all the individual tiddlers of the plugin. The plugin shows its shadow tiddlers, which I can export as .tid so fine. But what for the core of the tiddler, actual code?
My queston:
- is my diagnostic of the crash correct?
- how could I get all the file of a json file of the full plugin?
- is there an other plugin than LeftBar that is proposing a menu on the left?
Now, my plugin.json file (9.2Kb):
