Currently ikiwiki does not support left-to-right languages like Hebrew and Arabic,
|
||||
in the sense that page text is always aligned to the left. Unless you do some CSS
|
||||
hacking which doesn't scale well when you have many RTL pages.
|
||||
|
||||
In the future it would be nice to make the while wiki UI go right-to-left if the user
|
||||
chooses, but right now what's really important to me as an RTL language user
|
||||
is that the body text can go right-to-left.
|
||||
|
||||
This can be done with CSS easily:
|
||||
|
||||
[[!format css """
|
||||
body {
|
||||
text-align: right;
|
||||
direction: rtl;
|
||||
}
|
||||
"""]]
|
||||
|
||||
Currently there are two ways to make specific pages be RTL:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Include a local.css file with the above code as an attachment of each RTL page
|
||||
2. Specify CSS with the [[ikiwiki/directive/meta]] directive
|
||||
|
||||
The problem is that option 2 requires [[plugins/htmlscrubber]] to be off.
|
||||
|
||||
My suggestion: Add a parameter to the meta directive, which allows adding
|
||||
an *rtl.css* file in addition to the exisiting ones. This file can be both at the top-level
|
||||
and per-page overriden, just like local.css. The page.tmpl file can then use the
|
||||
meta field to conditionally use the rtl.css, both the wiki-global one and the
|
||||
per-page one (just like it does with local.css, IIRC).
|
||||
|
||||
And it won't require htmlscrubber off, just like local.css doesn't.
|
||||
|
||||
In the future rtl.css can be extended to also RTLize the whole UI, e.g. including the
|
||||
location of the "buttons" at the top, the page name, code blocks and so on.
|
||||
|
||||
What do you think? I can try this and send a patch. It just requires an additional
|
||||
meta field and a CSS file.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, to make a page RTL include something like this inside it:
|
||||
|
||||
\[[!meta dir="rtl"]]
|
||||
|
||||
Please tell me what you think.
