I initially thought this wasn't actually necessary - the combination
|
|
of [[plugins/template]] with [[plugins/contrib/field]]'s `pagetemplate`
|
|
hook ought to provide the same functionality. However, `template`
|
|
doesn't run `pagetemplate` hooks; a more general version of this
|
|
plugin would be to have a variant of `template` that runs `pagetemplate`
|
|
hooks (probably easiest to just patch `template` to implement a
|
|
second directive, or have a special parameter `run_hooks="yes"`,
|
|
or something).
|
|
|
|
> I got the impression that `pagetemplate` hooks are intended to be completely independent of `template` variables; page-template is for the actual `page.tmpl` template, while `template` is for other templates which are used inside the page content. So I don't understand why one would need a run_hooks option. --[[KathrynAndersen]]

>>> I did it that way basically because I needed the functionality ASAP, and I didn't want to step on anyone's toes, so I made them as separate plugins. If Joey wants to integrate the functionality into IkiWiki proper, I would be very happy, but I don't want to put pressure on him. --[[KathrynAndersen]]

Another missing thing is that `ftemplate` looks in
|
|
the "system" templates directories, not just in the wiki, but that
|
|
seems orthogonal (and might be a good enhancement to `template` anyway).
