# ACL
|

|

How about adding ACL? So that you can control which users are allowed
|
||||
to read, write certain pages. The moinmoin wiki has that, and it is
|
||||
something, that I think is very valuable.

# thoughts on infoboxes
|
||||
|
||||
I was thinking about adding a [[preprocessordirective]] to make it easy to
|
||||
add an info box. Something like:
|
||||
|
||||
\[[infobox "text here"]]
|
||||
|
||||
But it seems it would be better if multi-line text could be put inside,
|
||||
maybe expanding the syntax a bit:
|
||||
|
||||
\[[infobox "
|
||||
text here
|
||||
and here
|
||||
etc.
|
||||
"]]
|
||||
|
||||
This would just wrap the text up in a span element that was styled to float
|
||||
to the right, with a border, the way info boxes do on some wikis.
|
||||
|
||||
However, as I thought about it some more, I realized that this would be
|
||||
just as easy to type:
|
||||
|
||||
<span id=infobox>
|
||||
text here
|
||||
</span>
|
||||
|
||||
Why invent new syntax, after all? I see no reason to for something this
|
||||
simple.
|
||||
|
||||
However, maybe in the more complex case, this would be useful. If the
|
||||
infobox filled in a kind of template:
|
||||
|
||||
\[[infobox type=person name="Joey Hess" email=joey@kitenet.net url="http://kitenet.net/~joey/" description="
|
||||
Joey is the author of ikiwiki and some other stuff. *Yay*!
|
||||
"]]
|
||||
|
||||
That might be a lot more useful. Or here's one to use to describe ikiwiki's
|
||||
own plugins:
|
||||
|
||||
\[[infobox type=plugin name="sidebar" author="Tuomo Valkonen" core=no]]
|
||||
|
||||
This would expand by filling out the template page, which would be
|
||||
infobox/person or infobox/plugin, or whatever, and would have some syntax
|
||||
(possibly HTML::Template, if it's secure) for testing for values and
|
||||
embedding variables. Of course it would register a dependency on its
|
||||
template so changes to the template update all the pages.
|
||||
|
||||
(Since it's a preprocessor directive, the big multiline blocks of text can
|
||||
mix markdown (or whatever) with html, wikilinks, etc, in a natural way,
|
||||
which is nice..)
