using HTTP Authentication instead of ikiwiki's built in authentication.
Useful for eg, large sites with their own previously existing user auth
setup. Closes: #384534
- Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
- Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
like a proper perl module should.
- Use the other functions at your own risk.
- This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
export some other things.
* Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
* Anyone with a third-party ikiwiki plugin is strongly enrouraged
to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symboles from
"IkiWiki::".
* Link debian/changelog and debian/news to NEWS and CHANGELOG.
* Support hyperestradier version 1.4.2, which adds a new required phraseform
setting.
cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
* Factor out the cgi header printing code into a new function.
* Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
to the preferences page.
pages.
* Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
from the template, as well as stylesheets.
* If a page links to itself, mark up the link text in a span with
class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
defined for that though.
* Add --version.
* Man page format fixups.
* Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
forcing the link to lowercase.
* Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
with a given name exists.
* This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.
* Recommend rebuilding wikis on upgrade to this version.
them without annoyances.
* Suck in the page content when generating an inline archive page, to work
around the meta plugin's lack of caching of title metadata across runs.
* Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
and blog pages.
* Change titlepage() to encode utf-8 alnum characters. This is necessary
to avoid UTF-8 creeping into filenames in urls. (There are still
some other ways that it can get in.)
* PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
to perl code that does the matching.
* The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.
* Wiki rebuild needed on upgrade to this version due to PageSpec change.
* Add support for creation_month and creation_year to PageSpec.
Closes: #380680
* Changes to index file encoding.
plugin, so it's possible to implement a Planet using ikiwiki!
* --setup --refresh no longer rebuilds wrappers. Use --setup --refresh
--wrappers to do that.
* Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
to update pages that haven't changed on disk.
- Adds a locale setting to setup files.
- Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
- Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was
impossible.
is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
Closes: #373203
* writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
* Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
there.
* Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
given the readfile fix.
* Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
for some handy stuff like:
- Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
- Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
- Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
* When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
"blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
(This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
relative to the inlining page.)
<span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
* Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
* Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
around with adding new stuff to the page template.
* Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
similarly.
for other types of search engine plugins if wanted, and also opening up a
lot of new possibilities for other kinds of plugins later
some notable changes along the way:
- lots of new hook types: cgi, render, delete
- wrapper files fixed to support config strings with newlines in them
- HEADERCONTENT in page template useful for plugins. Probably needs to be
expanded to more such for other places plugins might want to add content.
- remove unnecessary wrappers field from config info stored in wrappers
to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
* Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
* Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
as plugins and work.
* Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
