It would be great if I could tell ikiwiki to automatically instantiate pages for each tag, according to a template, especially when `$tagbase` is set.
|
||
|
||
Tags are mainly specific to the object to which they’re stuck. However, I often use them the other way around, too: as concepts. And sometimes I’d like to see all pages related to a given concept (“tagged with a given tag”). The only way to do this with ikiwiki is to instantiate a page for each tag and slap a map on it. This is quite tedious and I’d really love to see Ikiwiki do so by default for all tags.

I have create a patch to tag.pm for add the option for auto create tag pages.
|
||
A new setting is used to enable or disable auto-create tag pages, `tag_autocreate`.
|
||
The new tag file is created during the preprocess phase.
|
||
The new tag file is then complied during the change phase.

This uses a template called `autotagpage.tmpl`, here is my template file:
|
||
|
||
\[[!inline pages="link(<TMPL_VAR TAG>)" archive="yes"]]
|
||
|
||
|
||
A quirk I have not figured out is during the `sub change`, see my comments in the code.
|
||
I am not sure if that is the best way to handle it.
