This is the roadmap for ikiwiki development.
|
|
|
|
# 1.0
|
|
|
|
* No severe [[security]] bugs.
|
|
* All the basic [[features]] people would expect in a wiki.
|
|
|
|
Released 29 April 2006.
|
|
|
|
The 1.X series is no longer supported.
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
# 2.0
|
|
|
|
* New improved URLs to pages via `usedirs`.
|
|
* [[plugins/OpenID]] support, enabled by default.
|
|
* Plugin [[interface|plugins/write]] added, with some 60 [[plugins]] available,
|
|
greatly expanding the capabilities of ikiwiki.
|
|
* [[Tags]], atom feeds, and generally full-fledged blogging support.
|
|
* Fully working [[todo/utf8]].
|
|
* Optimisations, approximately 3.5 times as fast as version 1.0.
|
|
* Improved scalability to large numbers of pages.
|
|
* Improved scalable [[logo]].
|
|
* Support for additional revision control systems besides svn: git,
|
|
tla, mercurial.
|
|
* Some support for other markup languages than markdown: rst, textile.
|
|
* Unit test suite, with more than 300 tests.
|
|
|
|
Released 30 April 2007.
|
|
|
|
The 2.x series is now in maintenance mode. Only security fixes and fixes for
|
|
really bad bugs will be applied going forward.
|
|

# 3.0
|
|
|
|
Version 3.0 is an opportunity to make significant transitions.
|
|
Read [[tips/upgrade_to_3.0]] for the steps you will need to
|
|
follow when upgrading your wiki to this version.
|
|
|
|
The highlights of the changes in version 3.0 include:
|
|
|
|
* Support for uploading [[attachments|plugins/attachment]].
|
|
* Can [[plugins/rename]] and [[plugins/remove]] pages and files via the web.
|
|
* [[Web_based_setup|plugins/websetup]].
|
|
* Blog-style [[plugins/comments]] as an alternative to Discussion pages.
|
|
* Many other new plugins including [[plugins/htmlbalance]], [[plugins/format]],
|
|
[[plugins/progress]], [[plugins/color]], [[plugins/autoindex]],
|
|
[[plugins/cutpaste]], [[plugins/hnb]], [[plugins/creole]], [[plugins/txt]],
|
|
[[plugins/amazon_s3]], [[plugins/pinger]], [[plugins/pingee]],
|
|
[[plugins/edittemplate]]
|
|
* The RecentChanges page is compiled statically, not generated from the CGI.
|
|
* Support for additional revision control systems: [[rcs/bzr]],
|
|
[[rcs/monotone]]
|
|
* Support for [[tips/untrusted_git_push]].
|
|
* A new version (3.00) of the plugin API, exporting additional
|
|
commonly used functions from `IkiWiki.pm`.
|
|
* Nearly everything in ikiwiki is now a plugin, from WikiLinks to page
|
|
editing, to RecentChanges.
|
|
* Far too many bug fixes, features, and enhancements to list here.
|
|
|
|
Released 31 December, 2008.
|
|
|
|
The 3.x series is expected to undergo continuing development for some time,
|
|
adding improvements and new features, but avoiding changes that break
|
|
backwards compatability.
|
|

|
|
# compatability breaking changes
|
|
|
|
Probably incomplete list:
|
|
|
|
* Drop old `--getctime` option.
|
|
* Remove compatability code in `loadindex` to handle old index data layouts.
|
|
* Make pagespecs match relative by default? (see [[discussion]])
|
|
* Flip wikilinks? (see [[todo/link_plugin_perhaps_too_general?]] and [[todo/do_not_make_links_backwards]])
|
|
* Enable tagbase by default (so that tag autocreation will work by default).
|
|
Note that this is already done for wikis created by `auto-blog.setup`.
|
|
* [[tips/html5]] on by default (some day..)
|
|
* Remove support for old `.ikiwiki/comments_pending` and for
|
|
pending comments located in the srcdir, rather than transient underlay,
|
|
from comment plugin. That support makes comment moderation slow as
|
|
it has to check all the old locations.
|
|
|
|
In general, we try to use [[ikiwiki-transition]] or forced rebuilds on
|
|
upgrade to deal with changes that break compatability. Some things that
|
|
can't help with.
|
|
|
|
# future goals
|
|
|
|
* Conversion support for existing other wikis. See [[convert]].
|
|
* [[TODO]], [[bugs]], ...
