The attachment plugin's Insert Links button currently only knows
|
|
how to insert plain wikilinks and img directives (for images).
|
|
|
|
[[wishlist]]: Generalize this, so a plugin can cause arbitrary text
|
|
to be inserted for a particular file. --[[Joey]]
|
|
|
|
Design:
|
|
|
|
Add an insertlinks hook. Each plugin using the hook would be called,
|
|
and passed the filename of the attachment. If it knows how to handle
|
|
the file type, it returns a the text that should be inserted on the page.
|
|
If not, it returns undef, and the next plugin is tried.
|
|
|
|
This would mean writing plugins in order to handle links for
|
|
special kinds of attachments. To avoid that for simple stuff,
|
|
a fallback plugin could run last and look for a template
|
|
named like `templates/embed_$extension`, and insert a directive like:
|
|
|
|
\[[!template id=embed_vp8 file=my_movie.vp8]]
|
|
|
|
Then to handle a new file type, a user could just make a template
|
|
that expands to some relevant html. In the example above,
|
|
`templates/embed_vp8` could make a html5 video tag, possibly with some
|
|
flash fallback code even.
