As noted in the Try::Tiny man page, eval/$@ can be quite awkward in
corner cases, because $@ has the same properties and problems as C's
errno. While writing a regression test for definetemplate
in which it couldn't find an appropriate template, I received
<span class="error">Error: failed to process template
<span class="createlink">deftmpl</span> </span>
instead of the intended
<span class="error">Error: failed to process template
<span class="createlink">deftmpl</span> template deftmpl not
found</span>
which turned out to be because the "catch"-analogous block called
gettext before it used $@, and gettext can call define_gettext,
which uses eval.
This commit alters all current "catch"-like blocks that use $@, except
those that just do trivial things with $@ (string interpolation, string
concatenation) and call a function (die, error, print, etc.)
Previously, prune("wiki/srcdir/sandbox/test.mdwn") could delete srcdir
or even wiki, if they happened to be empty. This is rarely what you
want: there's usually some base directory (destdir, srcdir, transientdir
or another subdirectory of wikistatedir) beyond which you do not want to
delete.
In 875d550f12 I for some reason
made $page be changed when creating a discussion page, which
broke the link on the edit page. Changing page seems unnecessary,
so reverted that part of the change.
cgitemplate is a modified misctemplate that takes an optional cgi object
and uses it to set the baseurl, and also optionally the forcebaseurl,
if a page is provided.
If no cgi object is provided, it will fall back to using $config{url}.
I expect this will only be needed in exceptional cases where
that doesn't much matter, such as cgierror().
showform uses cgitemplate, so there is no more need for showform_preview.
Now that page.tmpl is used for cgi, the parentlinks are able to be
displayed even when creating or editing a page. So it's redundant to
include the path to the page in the title, remove it.
Using named parameters for these is overdue. Passing the session in a
parameter instead of passing username and IP separately will later allow
storing other session info, like username or part of the email.
Note that these functions are not part of the exported API,
and the prototype change will catch (most) skew, so I am not changing
API versions. Any third-party plugins that call them will need updated
though.
Everywhere that REMOTE_ADDR was used, a session object is available, so
instead use its remote_addr method.
In IkiWiki::Receive, stop setting a dummy REMOTE_ADDR.
Note that it's possible for a session cookie to be obtained using one IP
address, and then used from another IP. In this case, the first IP will now
be used. I think that should be ok.
This entailed changing template_params; it no longer takes the template
filename as its first parameter.
Add template_depends to api and replace calls to template() with
template_depends() in appropriate places, where a dependency should be
added on the template.
Other plugins don't use template(), so will need further work.
Also, includes are disabled for security. Enabling includes only when using
templates from the templatedir would be nice, but would add a lot of
complexity to the implementation.
Many calls to file_prune were incorrectly calling it with 2 parameters.
In cases where the filename being checked is relative to the srcdir,
that is not needed.
Made absolute filenames be pruned. (This won't work for the 2 parameter call
style.)
When creating a page, multiple locations are tested to see if they can be
edited. If all fail, one of the failure subs is called, to log the user in
to allow them to proceed with the edit. So far so good.
But, what if some pages fail for one reason, and some for another? This
occurs when httpauth_pagespec is used in conjunction with signinedit (and
openid or something). When the user is not signed in at all
The former will fail to edit a page because the user was not httpauthed.
The latter will fail to edit a different page, because the user was not
signed in. One of their failure methods gets to run first.
The page creation code always ran the failure method corresponding to the
topmost page location. So, when editing a foo/Discussion page, and with
httpauth_pagespec => "*!/Discussion", it ran the httpauth failure method,
which was exactly the wrong thing to do.
I fixed this by making it instead run the failure method for the *best*
page location. In the above example, that's foo/Discussion, so signinedit
runs, as desired, and we get the signin page.
This seems like it will be the right choice, or at least an acceptable
choice. If a user wants to use httpauth they can always choose it on the
signin page.
By adding this setting, we get both more configurability, and a minor
optimisation too, since gettext does not need to be called continually
to get the Discussion value.
We build an array of [ plugin name, long name ] pairs, where long name
is an optional argument to hook(). So, a syntax plugin could define
long "friendly" name, such as "Markdown" instead of mdwn, and we would
then pass this array to formbuilder to populate the drop-down on the
edit page.
It no longer makes sense to keep these functions in editpage, because
serveral plugins now exist that use them, and users may want to disable
editpage, while leaving those plugins enabled.
Most notably, comments uses both functions, and it's entirely appropriate
to disable editpage but still want to have comments enabled.
Less likely, attachments, rename, and remove all use check_canedit -- but
it would be unusual indeed to want to use these w/o editpage.
Whenever the edit form is submitted, but not saved, the page location
select should reduce to the currently selected value. This was only done
when previewing before, but is also needed in order to support the case of
adding an attachment to a page that is just being created.
Before this change, the attachment plugin would get a weird value in
$form->field("page"), that did not reflect the actual page location.
