* Add IkiWiki::ErrorReason objects, and modify pagespecs to return
them in cases where they fail to match due to a configuration or syntax
error.
* inline: Display a handy error message if the inline cannot display any
pages due to such an error.
This is perhaps somewhat incomplete, as other users of pagespecs do not
display the error, and will eventually need similar modifications to inline.
I should probably factor out a pagespec_match_all function and make it throw
ErrorReasons.
This speeds up web commits by 1/4th of a second or so, since perl does
not have to start up for the post commit hook.
perl's locking is completly FuBar, since it's impossible to tell what perl
flock() really does, and thus difficult to write code in other languages
that interoperates with perl's locking. (Let alone interoperating with
existing fcntl locking from perl...)
In this particular case, I think I was able to find a way to avoid the
insanity, mostly. The C code does a true flock(2), and if perl is using an
incompatable lock method that does not use the same locking primative at
the kernel level, then the C code's test will fail, and it will go ahead
and run the perl code. Then the perl code's test will test the right thing.
On Debian, at least lately, perl's flock() does a true flock(2), so the
optimisation does work.
returned (and not run in some cases) rather than the plugins directly
forcing a user to log in.
* opendiscussion: allow editing of the toplevel discussion page,
and, indirectly, allow creating new discussion pages.
links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
* If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
back that support.)
* meta: Improved data storage.
* meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
liw's disappearing openids).
* aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.
old files.
* Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
scalar context, evaluates to a reason why the match failed.
* Add testpagespec plugin, which might be useful to see why a pagespec isn't
matching something.
plugins's support for inserting html link and meta tags. Now such content
is passed through the htmlscrubber like everything else.
* Unfortunatly, that means that some valid uses of those tags are no longer
usable, and special case methods needed to be added for including
stylesheets, and for doing openid delegation. If you use either of these
in your wiki, it will need to be modified. See the meta plugin docs
for details.
