commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook
(except for commit mails). The CGI then takes care of the updates the
commit hook would have done.
parameters remain the same, but additional options are now passed in using
named parameters.
* Change plugin interface version to 1.02 to reflect this change.
* Add a new anchor option to htmllink. Thanks Ben for the idea.
* Support anchors in wikilinks.
* Add a "more" plugin based on one contributed by Ben to allow implementing
those dreaded "Read more" links in blogs.
including out of disk space situations. ikiwiki should never leave
truncated files, and if the error occurs during a web-based file edit,
the user will be given an opportunity to retry.
Inspired by the many ways Moin Moin destroys itself when out of disk. :-)
* Fix syslogging of errors.
* 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.
non-page format files in the wiki. To exploit this, the file already had
to exist in the wiki, and the web user would need to somehow use the web
based editor to replace it with malicious content.
(Sorry Josh, this means you can't edit style.css directly anymore,
although I do appreciate your fixes, actually..)
edited.
* Move code forcing signing before edit to a new "signinedit" plugin, and
code checking for locked pages into a new "lockedit" plugin. Both are
enabled by default.
* Remove the anonok config setting. This is now implemented by a new
"anonok" plugin. Anyone with a wiki allowing anonymous edits should
change their configs to enable this new plugin.
* Add an opendiscussion plugin that allows anonymous users to edit
discussion pages, on a wiki that is otherwise wouldn't allow it.
* Lots of CGI code reorg and cleanup.
* Fix code to make absolute urls for rss feeds, was missing some urls.
* Fix double-escaping of html entities in titles etc in rss feeds
that occured if escaped characters were present in the page filename.
manipulate.
* Only exclude rss and atom files from processing if the inline plugin
is enabled and that feed type is enabled. Else it's just a copyable file
type.
* Move rss and atom option handling code into the inline plugin.
* Applied a rather old patch from Recai to fix the "pruning is too strict"
issue. Now you can have wiki source directories inside dotdirs and the
like, if you want.
template won't work with CGI::FormBuilder 3.0401, so disable it for now.
* CGI::FormBuilder 3.0401 seems to work ok now with ikiwiki, although
there might still be bugs lurking..
* Introduce the nicebundle. This is a kind of plugin, that just enables
many other plugins. It's an easy way to boost ikiwiki from its default,
basic wiki, to a full-featured wiki, without manually picking the right
set of plugins. New plugins will be added to the nicebundle from time to
time.
* Add a test suite for the svn backend.
* Daemonize before sending RPC pings, since that can take a while
and/or hang.
* Daemonize before sending commit mails, as that can also take a long
time/hang if the mail server is unhappy.
* Factor out commit mail sending code into new function.
nothing more spohisticated will be needed.
* Add formbuilder_setup and formbuilder hooks.
* Split out a passwordauth module, that holds all the traditional password
based authentication etc code. It's enabled by default, but can be disabled
if you want only openid or some other auth method.
* Make the openid plugin support the callbacks from myopenid.com via its
affiliate program.
* Change how post signin actions are propigated through the signin process;
they're now stored in the session.
* Web commits by OpenID users will record the full OpenID url for the user,
but in recentchanges, these urls will be converted to a simplified display
form+link.
* Modified svn, git, tla backends to recognise such web commits.
FORM-SUBMIT unusable on customised formbuilder templates. For now,
hardcode the submit buttons in editpage.tmpl instead of using the
template variable, which is ok, since the buttons are static.
* Use precalculated backlinks info when determining if files need an update
due to a page they link to being added/removed. Mostly significant if
there are lots of pages.
* Remove duplicate link info when saving index. In some cases it could
pile up rather badly. (Probably not the best way to deal with this
problem.)
8x.
* Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
%links.
* Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots
(thousands) of pages.
instead of over and over. This is up to 8 times faster than before!
(This could have introduced some subtle bugs, so it needs to be tested
extensively.)
an exception for the wiki's toplevel index page, which will still use the
wikiname as the feed title.
* Sanitize possibly problimatic characters out of the polygen grammar names,
just in case. Should not be exploitable anyway, since it only tries to run
polygen after finding the specified grammar file.
* Add a shortcut plugin, inspired by Victor Moral's contributed shortcuts
plugin, but featuring a more ikiwiki-ish syntax and with shortcuts that
can be configured using a page in wiki.
* Add feeds=no option to inline preprocessor directive to turn off all types
of feeds. feeds=rss will still work, and feeds=atom was also added, for
fine control.
* $IkiWiki::version now holds the program version, and is accessible to
plugins.
source file, to allow tracking of extra rendered files like rss feeds.
* Note that plugins that accessed this variable will need to be updated!
The plugin interface has been increased to version 1.01 for this change.
* Add will_render function to the plugin interface, used to register that a
page renders a destination file, and do some security checks.
* Use will_render in the inline and linkmap plugins.
* Previously but no longer rendered files will be cleaned up.
* You will need to rebuild your wiki on upgrade to this version.
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
* chomp trailing newlines at the end of templates read in by the template
plugin, to allow use of the template preprocessor directive in
whitespace-sensative situations. Closes: #387073
- 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.
* otl2hmtl can't be safely used with IPC::Open2 since it sometimes
writes before consuming its whole stdin. Avoid this deadlock.
* Fix alt tags for outline checkboxes.
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.
This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
* Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
* Add a template plugin.
* Use the template plugin to add infoboxes to each plugin page listing basic
info about the plugin.
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.
Talens-Oliag. Note that this has many known issues -- see the caveats on
the plugin's page.
* Credit everyone who wrote a plugin on the plugins' wiki pages.
* 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.
