3 * Add a tail fin^W^Wsidebar plugin by Tuomo Valkonen.
4 * If a page links to itself, mark up the link text in a span with
5 class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
6 defined for that though.
7 * Call filter hooks on inlined page content.
8 * Support inlining pages raw, rather than creating a blog.
9 * Clean up yes/no parameter parsing in inline plugin.
10 * Implemented better cycle detection in the inline plugin; nested inlines
12 * Add a map plugin contributed by Alessandro Dotti Contra.

18 * Relicense the templates and basewiki under the 2-clause BSD license.
19 Since these can easily become part of other people's websites, they
20 should be under as permissive a license as possible.
21 * Add --syslog config option, to log to the syslog.
22 * Catch failing IPC::Open2 in tidy plugin and retry in case this is a
23 transient failure to fork (which I've seen happen in the wild).
24 * Fix a bug in the aggregator introduced last version that caused all
25 aggregator state to be lost during a non-aggregating build.

37 ikiwiki (1.18) unstable; urgency=low
39 * The last release accidentially installed ikiwiki as ikiwiki.pl, now fixed.
41 * Man page format fixups.
42 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
43 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
44 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
45 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
46 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
47 forcing the link to lowercase.
48 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
49 with a given name exists.
50 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
51 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
52 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.
53 * Recommend rebuilding wikis on upgrade to this version.

59 * Disable tidy generator tag.
60 * Move tidy back to sanitize hook, found out how to only show body.
61 * Turn off tidy indentation too.
62 * Turn on HTML::Template loop_context_vars; not actually used in stock
63 templates but can be useful for things like making comma-delimited lists
64 of tags or what have you.
65 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
66 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on
67 case-sensative filesystems like OSX.
68 * Improve markdown loading. First, try to load it as a proper perl module,
69 in case it was installed as one. Then fall back to trying
71 * Document in install page how to install markdown, since it has no
72 installation procedure in the upstream tarball.
73 * Set die_on_bad_params => 0 for all templates, to allow users to modify
74 them without annoyances.
75 * Suck in the page content when generating an inline archive page, to work
76 around the meta plugin's lack of caching of title metadata across runs.

80 ikiwiki (1.16) unstable; urgency=low
82 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
83 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
84 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
85 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
86 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
87 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
89 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
90 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
91 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
92 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
93 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
95 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
96 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
97 matter what the input.
98 * Disable tidy warnings too.
99 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
100 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks
102 * Fix dates in rss feeds if running localised, so they're still rfc 822.

130 * Don't put blog post forms on pages if there's no cgiurl set.
131 * --setup --refresh no longer rebuilds wrappers. Use --setup --refresh
132 --wrappers to do that.
133 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
134 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.
135 * Change meta tags to use html entity-escaped text for values, so that
136 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.
137 * Depend and build-depend on HTML::Parser for HTML::Entities which is used
139 * Make --rebuild also cause --aggregate to re-download and write aggregated
141 * Avoid outputting duplicate meta info.
142 * Include title metadata on aggregated posts for capitalised and un-munged
144 * Title metadata of inlined pages now shows up in blogs and rss feeds.
145 * Fix issue with unicode filenames and updating the hyper estradier search
146 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
147 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
149 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
150 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
151 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
152 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
153 to perl code that does the matching.
154 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
155 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
156 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.
157 * Wiki rebuild needed on upgrade to this version due to PageSpec change.
158 * Add support for creation_month and creation_year to PageSpec.
160 * Changes to index file encoding.

168 the backlinks for each page, or a del.icio.us style cloud.
169 * Build-depend on libtext-wikiformat-perl, so that the syntax check of
170 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.
171 * Patch from Alessandro Dotti Contra to clean up backlinks and navbar
172 display, running them through pagetitle. This removes ugly underscores and
173 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
174 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.
175 * Polygen plugin from Enrico.
176 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
177 * Locale patch from Faidon:
178 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
179 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
180 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
181 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was
183 * Add getopt hook type, this allows plugins to add new command-line options.
184 * Add --tagbase option to tag plugin.
185 * Add exclude option in setup files, works same as --exclude.
186 * Put categories in rss feeds for tagged items.
187 * Allow preprocessor directives to be expanded in inlined blog pages.

198 - Adds a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
199 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
200 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
201 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
203 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
204 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
205 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also
207 * Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
208 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
209 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
210 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
211 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
212 different than the source page for inlined pages.
213 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
214 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work
215 properly, with correct links generated.

223 default throughout the wiki, not only on wikitext pages. Decided to call
224 this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
225 that is independant of wikitext.

232 * Improve display of parentlinks and page title of toplevel index page.
233 * Patch from Faidon to use svn --limit when possible for recentchanges,
234 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
235 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
236 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
237 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
238 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
239 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
240 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
241 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
242 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
243 area, and also way slow.
244 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.
246 * Consolidated all decode_utf8 in FormBuilder's fields to make the code more
247 readable and avoid future mistakes. The patch seems to work and for the
248 first time I have a UTF-8 username ;-) (Faidon)

256 ikiwiki (1.8) unstable; urgency=low
258 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
259 for a page not being an orphan.
260 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
261 about changes to rss feeds.
262 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
263 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
264 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
265 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
266 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
267 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
268 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
269 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
270 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
271 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
273 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
274 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
275 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
276 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
277 getting in the way of the preview.
278 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
280 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
281 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
282 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
283 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
285 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
286 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
287 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
288 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
289 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
290 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
291 sanitise them, like any other page type.
292 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
293 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
294 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
295 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
296 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
297 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
298 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
299 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
300 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
301 No code changes involved.
302 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
303 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.
304 * Memoize abs2rel, which is still kinda slow, for another 30% speedup
305 in time to build the doc wiki.

320 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
321 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
322 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
323 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
325 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
326 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
327 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
328 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
329 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
330 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
332 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
333 given the readfile fix.
334 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
335 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
337 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
338 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
339 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
340 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
341 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
343 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide
345 * New SVG logo from Recai.

351 * Add --timeformat config option to allow changing how dates are displayed.
352 Note that as a side effect, dates will now be displayed using the local
353 timezone, not as GMT.
354 * More security review.
355 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
356 for some handy stuff like:
357 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
358 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
359 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
360 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
361 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
362 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
363 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
364 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
365 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
367 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
368 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
369 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
370 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
371 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
372 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
373 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
374 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
375 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
376 * Doc updates for git.
377 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
379 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
380 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
381 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

385 ikiwiki (1.4) unstable; urgency=low
387 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
388 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
389 should be always valid again now.
390 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
391 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
392 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
393 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
394 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
395 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
396 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
398 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
399 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
401 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
402 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
403 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
404 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
406 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
407 fix and make it a bit more flexible
408 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
409 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
410 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
411 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
412 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
413 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
415 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
416 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
417 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
419 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
420 relative to the inlining page.)
421 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.

443 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
444 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
445 on upgrade to this version.
446 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
447 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
448 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
449 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
450 plugins) during a page render.
451 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
452 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an

455 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
456 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
457 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
458 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
459 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
461 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
462 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
463 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
464 different location) already exists.
465 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
466 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
467 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
468 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
469 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
470 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
471 * Smart globlist merging.
472 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
473 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
474 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
475 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
476 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
477 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
478 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
479 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
