Hi all, As it seems there is a lack of good plotting/visualization libraries for TW5 (besides vis), I am trying to make a simple plot.ly js wrapper for TW5 along with a <$plotly> widget.
However, as this is my first real TW5 plugin, I'm struggling in some respects, and would love some input. So far, I've wrapped the plotly.js library in an IIFE which provides 'document' as either $tw.fakeDocument if building under node, or window.document for the browser. I'm building the plugin according to this guide <http://tiddlywiki.com/dev/#Developing%20plugins%20using%20Node.js%20and%20GitHub> from the developer documentation, but I keep running into the limitations of $tw.fakeDocument. For instance, in the plotly library, there's a line which executes document.head.appendChild(/*...*/) When I try to build the index.html, I get an error complaining that appendChild doesn't exist for 'undefined'. I can try working through errors like this one by one, but it seems this is fundamentally to do with the limitations of $tw.fakeDocument. (Also, the ploty javascript library is >150,000 lines of code, so I REALLY don't want to have to modify the original library at all). Is there a way for me to develop this plugin such that it doesn't build for node but it does work on the browser? Or is there something I'm overlooking?
