[tw5] Re: Local Search Engine - Passing search parameters from address bar

Duarte

I agree with Josua,

Great hack/workflow! Impressed. :)


But I also want to add I have being using Mohammads Search Wikis plugin.

   - Demo: https://kookma.github.io/TW-Searchwikis/
   - Code: https://github.com/kookma/TW-Searchwikis

I have a node server on bob which hosts indexes to multiple wikis (lets 
call this the registry). Using you search method and having it search the 
registry could be an amazing way to index and search large numbers of 
disparate wikis.

Wow is all I can say now.

[tw5] Re: Local Search Engine - Passing search parameters from address bar

[tony]

Thank you so much for this!!

Leveraging the convenience of the browser address bar saves steps of having 
to go through UI in Advanced Search

Your method works with node.js as you explain so clearly!  Keyword + 
 expands to 

http://localhost:8080/myfolder/mywiki.html#:[!is[system]search[]] 


which opens up mywiki.html with search results in the story river :-) Wow!

Best,
tony

[tw5] Re: Local Search Engine - Passing search parameters from address bar

[Duarte Farrajota Ramos]

In the meantime I figured TiddlyWiki already filters system tiddlers out by 
default, so this could be made a little simpler. So for the record here is 
a canonical post gathering the whole procedure,

Lets say you have a wiki at D:/TiddlyWiki.html and need to search it 
frequently and conveniently from your browser address bar like you would 
using any regular web search engine.
As Riz mentioned you can use the Permalinks 
feature to pass down a *Story Filter* 
parameter directly from your address bar, that will determine which 
tiddlers are open on page load.

Since most browsers interpret %s string in a URL as placeholder that gets 
replaced by a user search terms, you can setup a search engine or bookmark 
with a name like My Wiki, address pointing to your wiki like 
file:///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[search[%s]] and keyword wiki.
If you then type into the address bar the keyword followed by a space then 
a search term like personal notes so that you end up with something like  
wiki personal notes it would then automatically resolve the address and 
take you to file:///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[search[personal notes]] .
This will effectively search you wiki for personal notes and open it 
already displaying a story river of open tiddlers containing your search 
term personal notes thus behaving similarly to a web search engine.

Don't literally enter  file:///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[search[%s]]  into the 
address bar as it will show a javascript error instead, if you need to just 
type directly you should replace %s with an actual term like file:
///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[search[my search terms]].

So all you need to setup either book or a search engine in your browser 
pointing to your wiki file with a valid %s placeholder and a keyword.
Under Chrome* go to Settings > Search Engines > Manage Search Engines and 
specify a keyword and a 



For Firefox alike go to the bookmark manager under the *Bookmark Menu > 
Show All*, and specify a keyword. You can also manage them for existing 
bookmarks from the right-clicking menu on any bookmark and accessing 
*Properties*.






Replace [search[%s]] with any valid TiddlyWiki Filter 
 you like to present relevant 
output for your needs.

Searchwikis plugin lets to create a central index of all wikis 
online/offline and then using your method it is possible to search all of 
them from

 The %s string is a common placeholder for search terms, not something

 Say you setup a firefox bookmark with name My Wiki, address file:

 If you then type into the address bar the alias followed by a space 
 then a search term like say  wiki personal notes it would then

 :[!is[system]search[%s]] gave mw a Javascript error but useing a normal

 An note to any one reading-- a lag before anythng displays is normal
 when using a filter in the permalink.


 This trick can also be used with Google docs and sheets (though not

[tw5] Re: Local Search Engine - Passing search parameters from address bar

[Duarte Farrajota Ramos]

On Chrom* go to *Settings > Search > Manage Search Engines*. Add a new one 
and specify the keyword

[image: tiddlywiki_chrome_search.png]


On Firefox go to the bookmark manager under the *Bookmark Menu > Show All*, 
and specify a keyword. You can also add a one on an existing bookmark from 
the menu by right-clicking on a bookmark and accessing properties.

[tw5] Re: Local Search Engine - Passing search parameters from address bar

[TW Tones]

Duarte,

How do you specify the alias in chrome and/or FireFox. IF I understand 
correctly this can be entered in the address bar and the value following 
passed into the bookmark(lete) ?

Regards
Tony

[tw5] Re: Local Search Engine - Passing search parameters from address bar

[Duarte Farrajota Ramos]

The %s string is a common placeholder for search terms, not something you 
would enter literally into the address bar.
Say you setup a firefox bookmark with name My Wiki, address file:
///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[!is[system]search[%s]] and alias wiki.
If you then type into the address bar the alias followed by a space then a 
search term like say  wiki personal notes it would then automatically 
resolve the address and take you to 
file:///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[!is[system]search[personal 
notes]] .

If you literally type  file:///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[!is[system]search[%s]]  
into the address bar it will apparently show a javascript error, if you 
want to just type directly you would have to actually write  
file:///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[!is[system]search[my 
search terms]] manually.

[tw5] Re: Local Search Engine - Passing search parameters from address bar

[A Gloom]

For the record if anyone else wants to know how, you can simply add to your 
browser something like

:[!is[system]search[%s]] gave mw a Javascript error but useing a normal 
search term instead of % worked fine.

An note to any one reading-- a lag before anythng displays is normal when 
using a filter in the permalink.


This trick can also be used with Google docs and sheets (though not tested 
with a local wiki):

Most welcome. May be there is a need to highlight this feature a bit more.

[tw5] Re: Local Search Engine - Passing search parameters from address bar

[Duarte Farrajota Ramos]

Wow indeed! Wasn't aware of these extended permalink features, should have 
read the documentation more carefully.
This works like a charm, exactly what I wanted.

For the record if anyone else wants to know how, you can simply add to your 
browser something like
file:///D:/TiddlyWiki.html#:[!is[system]search[%s]]
and it will behave like any search engine. Works both for Chrome-alike as 
from the search engine list, and for Firefox as a regular bookmark with an 
alias.

Many thanks for the help, Riz, just what I was looking for.
