Speedup of about 25% for small inlines; could be much larger for inlines of
many, or complex pages.
Not bloating memory with excessive memoization data was the key to this.
The method chosen does not squeeze out every erg of speed possible when
inlines are nested, but that's rare. It uses less memory than other
optimisation hacks (I'm looking at you,
f937c1fb80 !) already used in inline.pm.
Unlike generic meta foo tags, meta description is known to be safe, so can
be special cased to be allowed despite the html scrubber. This makes meta
description much more useful, since it is otherwise limited to being used
by other plugins like map.
My experience is that when inlines are nested, the old behavior of
generating feeds for the nested inlines was never really desired. Since the
feeds were numbered sequentially, the numbers could easily change, and it did
not make sense to subscribe to or use those feeds. And generating those nested
feeds often meant a lot of unnecessary calculation, and data being written.
So, I dropped them.
Looking back, nested feeds originally were a free side effect of properly
handing multiple feeds on one page. Of course, that is still supported.
I chose not to have it override style.css, because style.css is not really
intended to be edited; the one from the underlay is intended to be used as
a base that local.css overrides.
I chose to use a plugin rather than changing the default behavior, both
because I didn't want to have to worry about possibly breaking backwards
compatability (though this seems unlikely), and because it seemed cleaner
to not include style template parameters in the main page template code.
I suppose someone might want a way to not override the toplevel
local.css, but instead include it as well as foo/local.css. Probably the
best way to do that would be to have foo/local.css @import ../local.css
(modulo browser compatability issues). Alternatively, edit page.tmpl
to always include the toplevel local.css, or swap out this plugin for
another one.
When redirecting to a page, ie, after editing, ensure that the url is
uri-encoded. Most browsers other than MSIE don't care, but it's the right
thing to do.
The known failure case involved editing a page that had utf-8 in the name
using MSIE.
Before, the htmllink would display the link to the template as if it were a
wikilink, but what was stored was not, which could lead to confusing
situations.
This will be a bit more expensive, but --getctime does not need to be fast.
And getting the real creation time a very useful when untangling blog
histories that involve renames.
Benchmarking refresh of a a wiki with 25 thousand pages showed
file_pruned() using most of the time. But, when refreshing, ikiwiki already
knows about nearly all the files. So we can skip calling file_pruned() for
those it knows about. While tricky to do, this sped up a refresh (that
otherwise does no work) by 10-50%.
This makes it more efficient.
It also fixes the same bug that I fixed in orphans recently,
that only changes to the set of displayed pages were considered (or amoung),
which missed changes to links on other pages to those.
Probably this bug was never noticed because pagestats is most often put
on a blog type page, which gets updated anyway when posts change,
and thus the tag cloud was updated.
This makes it more efficient.
It also fixes a longstanding bug, where if only a small set of pages were
considered by orphans, changes to links on other pages failed to cause an
update.
Here I was bitten by perl's aliasing of foreach variables
to the loop array contents, and match_link accidentially changed
the contents of %links.
In Jon's testcase, a tag added an absolute link, which was
made relative by the above bug, and then the link was added
again in preprocess, and turned into a duplicate.
I had assumed that an image shown full size did not need add_depends, since
a change would not need a change to the displaying page.
But this is not true if the image is modified and its size changes. Then
the page needs to update its img tag to reflect the current size.
If an image was resized smaller, with width and height specified to values
that did not fit its aspect ratio, the image tag with/height were not
adjusted to the actual size imagemagick chooses.
This was broken by 03449610d6.
To fix it right, it unfortunatly needs to always read the src image now,
in order to determine if the image is being displayed larger, or resized
smaller. When resized smaller, it then always uses the size of the
thumbnail, while for larger it calculates the size.
(Only way to get rid of this sometimes extra image read would be to change
it to not allow displaying images larger.)
I weakended the regexp, so this matches ipv6 addresses too. It does not
ensure that the address is valid, but that should not matter here.
Note that addresses ending in "::" are not matched, so eg, the unspecified
address will not match -- but should never appear here anyway.
TeX has configuration options that prevent unsafe things like shell
escapes and insecure file reads/writes. Turn all of them on.
teximg's regex-based blacklist does not suffice. For instance:
[[!teximg code="""
\catcode`\%=0
%input{/etc/passwd}
"""]]
Remove the blacklist, since the TeX configuration options seal off the
underlying mechanisms more safely, and the blacklist blocks other TeX
commands that can prove useful.
Although imagemagick handles even really large sizes sanely, using a page
file, doing so would just waste time and disk space, since the browser
can be told to resize it larger.
