tiddlywiki: can't save changes in QWebView

Question

I am trying to use tiddlywiki (version 5.1.10) together with QWebView in PyQt (version 4.10.2). I am able to load the tiddlywiki page with QtCore.QUrl.fromLocalFile("C:\\path\\to\\tiddlywiki\\empty.html"), but unfourtunately my changes aren't saved. I already tried to place TiddlySaver.jar in the same directory as tiddlywiki, but that doesn't change anything. Does somebody know if it's possible to use tiddlywiki together with QWebView?

Answer 1

As nobody has answered here, I want to quickly respond with my "solution". After all, I couldn't get tiddlywiki to work in PyQt4...I researched it a little bit and it seems like that it isn't possible with QWebView (correct me, if I'm wrong).

Therefore, I looked for alternatives to tiddlywiki. My requirements were, that it shouldn't require any installation. That's why I decided to use tiddlywiki in the first place. After some googling, I found Dokuwiki on a stick. It's a pretty nice looking wiki, that doesn't require any installation. It is possible to download the wiki with or without a webserver (dokuwiki on a stick provides a microapache webserver, which is a really small apache webserver binary that doesn't need an installation). The cool thing is, that you can pack the microapache webserver to your PyQt application. When your application starts, you start the webserver locally (with QProcess or something similar) and can connect to the wiki.
