The hash will be used used to record a set of pages that influenced the
result of a pagespec match.
The influences are merged together when boolean and/or are encountered
in a pagespec. That means using a non-short-circuiting OR operator. And
so I use & and | when translating pagespecs, since those bitwise operators
can be overloaded. ("and" and "or" cannot, apparently).
And avoid a whole class of potential security problems (though
none that I know of actually existing..), by avoiding
performing any string interpolation on user-supplied data when translating
pagespecs.
This fixes a problem exposed by the recent change to tags
(a2839de936). That recorded tag links as
absolute by including a leading slash in the link. The same could also be
done with an absolute wikilink.
In either case, link() would not match such links, unless the leading slash
was included in the link to match. But that's not right, because pagespecs
match absolute by default. So strip the leading slash.
Note that to keep any existing `link(/foo)` pagespecs working after this
change, the leading slash is removed from there, too.
This manifested as wikis with no locked pages treating them all as locked.
The bug was introduced in version 2.41.
Medium urgency upload due to above fix.
I kept it to a simple global configuration, rather than using the
preprocessor directive for recentchanges, because that had chicken and egg
problems and seemed overcomplicated. This should work reasonably well,
though it would be good to add some more metadata so that more customised
recentchanges pages can be made.
(Get a good message when a PageSpec fails due to a negated success by
creating success objects with a reason string, which morph into failure
objects when negated.)
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.
for extended pagespecs. The old calling convention will still work for
back-compat for now.
* The calling convention for functions in the IkiWiki::PageSpec namespace
has changed so they are passed named parameters.
* Plugin interface version increased to 2.00 since I don't anticipate any
more interface changes before 2.0.
that given link points based on the page doing the linking. Note that this
could make such PageSpecs match different things than before, if you
relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.
* This required changing the match_* interface, adding a third parameter.
* Allow link() PageSpecs to match relative, as is allowed with globs.a
* Add postform option to inline plugin.
* Add an bug tracker to the softwaresite example.
* Add a "conditional" plugin, which allows displaying text if a condition
is true. It is enabled by default so conditional can be used in the
basewiki.
* Use conditionals in the template for plugins, so that plugin pages
say if they're currently enabled or not, and in various other places
in the wiki.
- 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.
* 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.
