In setting up my wiki I followed the [[setup]] instruction which point
|
|
to an ikiwiki.setup file that contains "verbose => 0".
|
|
|
|
I hadn't noticed that setting in there, but later when I changed my
|
|
standard command of:
|
|
|
|
ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup
|
|
|
|
to:
|
|
|
|
ikiwiki --verbose --setup ikiwiki.setup
|
|
|
|
I was quite surprised that that change didn't have any effect.
|
|
|
|
So two suggestions to fix this:
|
|
|
|
1. Make command-line arguments override settings in the setup file
|
|
|
|
> This is difficult to do, since reading a setup file replaces values for
|
|
> config items with the values in the setup file. Also, when you say
|
|
> --setup foo, you're asking ikiwiki to set up the wiki using the
|
|
> comnfiguration in file foo. Which is what it does.
|
|
|
|
2. Comment out all settings in the example setup file that are simply
|
|
setting options to their default values. That way, the file will
|
|
still be self-documenting, but command-line arguments will at least
|
|
work for these settings while they remain commented out.
|
|
|
