I'd like to see some way to include certain files from the underlay only when the wiki has certain plugins enabled. For example:
|
|
|
|
* Only include smileys.mdwn and the smileys subdirectory if you enable the [[plugins/smiley]] plugin.
|
|
* Exclude openid.mdwn if you disable the [[plugins/openid]] plugin.
|
|
* Exclude passwordauth.mdwn if you disable the [[plugins/passwordauth]] plugin.
|
|
* Include shortcuts.mdwn only if you enable the [[plugins/shortcut]] plugin.
|
|
* Include blog.mdwn only if you don't disable the [[plugins/inline]] plugin.
|
|
* Include favicon.ico only if you enable the [[plugins/favicon]] plugin.
|
|
* Include wikiicons/diff.png (and the wikiicons directory) only if you enable the CGI.
|
|
* Include a hypothetical restructuredtexthelp.rst or similar for other formats only with those formats enabled.
|

I can see two good ways to implement this. Ideally, with
|
|
[[conditional_text_based_on_ikiwiki_features]] available, ikiwiki could
|
|
parse a page like conditionalpages.mdwn, which could contain a set of
|
|
conditional-wrapped page names; that seems like the most elegant and
|
|
ikiwiki-like approach. Alternatively, [[/ikiwiki.setup]] could contain a
|
|
Perl-generated exclude option by default; that would work, but it seems
|
|
hackish.
