List filter when some tiddler change

[Ittayd]

I’m trying to use innerwiki to allow me see changes to a widget without reload.

The example I saw uses a list widget which refreshes when a hello.js tiddler changes. So i tried the same with ‘…text[]join[]’ over several tiddlers.

It works partially. If I add a ‘throw “test”’ in the widget, I do see that the list widget refreshes (since i see nothin, as expected), but when I remove it, it doesn’t refresh to show the original content

Is there another filter I should use?

Use a filter closer to the example I provided at:

Widget development

Maybe these tiddlers will serve as a better example: https://tiddlywiki.com/dev/#Hello%20World%20demo:[[Hello%20World%20demo]]%20hello.js Step by step: Visit the above link Notice the innerwiki in the first tiddler shows <$hello/> Renders as: Hello, World! Scroll down to the hello.js tiddler. Edit it. Change “Hello, World!” to “Hallo, Welt!”. Save the tiddler Scroll back up to the tiddler with the inner wiki. Notice it now shows <$hello/> Renders as: Hallo, Welt!

The idea is that the list widget will refresh its contents whenever the output of the filter changes:

<$list name=refresh filter="[[hello.js]get[text]]">

That’s why I use [[hello.js]get[text]]. The output of the filter will change whenever the text of hello.js changes.

You are using [text[]join[]] which is completely different from [get[text]join[]]. The former is shorthand for [field:text[]join[]] which means return the titles of the tiddlers which have empty text field. The output of that filter will only change if you change a text field back and forth between empty and non-empty.

So you should use something like this whose output fill change anytime the text fields of the two tiddlers change:

<$list name=refresh filter="myfile1.js myfile2.js :and[get[text]join[]]">

get[text] doesn't help. I should say that I'm trying to refresh when any tiddler under $:/plugins/me/something/ changes, so the full filter is [all[shadows+tiddlers]prefix[$:/plugins/me/something]get[text]] +[join[]]` which doesn’t work.

I don’t know what to tell you. It works for me. See it in action at this share site link.

I debugged a bit and I think it is generally something to do with how the innerwiki is rendered that fails after a second refresh (in my case). I see the iframe in the dom tree, but nothing shows on screen. If I edit and cancel the edit then the innerwiki is displayed as usual.
