Currently ikiwiki linkifies text, then runs preprocessor directives. This
|
||
|
|
allows a directive to contain a wikilink inside a parameter, but since the
|
||
|
|
wikilink expands to some arbitrary html, the parameter needs to be
|
||
|
|
triple-quoted to avoid quotes in the expanded text from leaking out. This
|
||
|
|
is rather non-obvious.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One fix would be to switch the order, since linkification and preprocessing
|
||
|
|
are relatively independant. Some directives, like inline, would need to keep
|
||
|
|
on linkifiying the inlined pages, to make the links be resolved correctly,
|
||
|
|
but that's ok. Any directives that outputed stuff that looked like a
|
||
|
|
wikilink, but wasn't, would need to be changed.

|
|
|
||
|
|
An alternative would be to change the wikilink regexp so it doesn't apply
|
||
|
|
to wikilinks that are embedded inside preprocessor directives. I haven't
|
||
|
|
found a way to do that yet, since perl doesn't allow variable-width
|
||
|
|
negative lookbehind.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Maybe processing wikilinks and preprocessor directives
|
||
|
|
as part of the same loop would work, but that probably has its own
|
||
|
|
issues.
