13 * Wrap the editpage template in the standard misctemplate, this allows the
14 pagetemplate hook to work for that page.
15 * Above change fixes the favicon plugin to work on edit pages.
16 * Correct some issues with escaped preprocessor directives.
17 * Make the map plugin notice when pages in the map are deleted and update
19 * Add a htmlext config option, this can be used to make ikiwiki generate
20 html files with a different extension.
21 * Fix graphviz plugin to not try to read images as utf-8; they might
22 sometimes contain invalid utf-8 byte sequences. Thanks,

29 a page. (Not to be confused with the hook of the same name..)
30 * Add a libdir config option to let ikiwiki load perl modules, including
31 plugins, from a user-configurable directory.

37 * Make the toc plugin use html-compatible anchors. This is necessary since
38 most web sites serve ikiwiki xhtml files as text/html and mozilla browsers
39 get confused. So it's best for ikiwiki to follow the compatability
40 recommendations in appendix C of the XHTML spec. Closes: #432045

42 * mercurial getctime is currently broken, apparently by some change in
43 mercurial version 0.9.4. Turn the failing test case into a TODO test case.
44 * Fix links to alternate stylesheets when usedirs is enabled. Closes: #432556

72 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
73 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
74 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
75 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
76 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
77 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
78 always be tracked correctly.
79 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
81 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
82 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
83 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
84 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
85 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
86 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
87 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
88 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
89 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
90 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
91 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
92 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
93 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
94 not (if set from the page filename).
95 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
96 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
97 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
98 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.
99 * Correct some issues with display of unhandled preprocessor directives.
100 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth adding support for using globs in link()
102 * Explode some of the more insane regexps.
103 * Add test suite for preprocessor directive parsing.

126 ikiwiki builds when refreshing the wiki.
129 * Add an account-creation password as a simple anti-spam mechanism. If
130 set in the wiki setup, passwordauth will require the password in
131 order to create an account.
134 * Updated Czech translation from Miroslav Kure.
135 * Apply patch from Paweł Tęcza to avoid using -L in Makefile as it's not
136 available in older finds.
137 * Make all templates have a footer div to ease themeing. Required template
138 and style sheet updates, and unless you're using customised versions,

148 - Actually check the confirm password field, even if it's left empty.
149 * Add a destpage parameter to the filter hook.

165 Especially cleans up the ordering of the admin's preferences form.
166 * Use a fieldset to set off the openid entry from the rest of the login
168 * Enable openid logins by default.
169 * Enable usedirs by default.
172 * fieldset support appeared in CGI::FormBuilder 3.05, so increase
173 version in Depends on libcgi-formbuilder-perl to 3.05

190 * Work around bug #420636 by, if XML::Parser crashes, running the feed
191 content though Encode::decode_utf8.
194 * Change basewiki CSS to not put a border around images used as links.
197 * Move the footer div to enclose tags and links too.
198 * More style sheet updates, remove the hack that used the tags div to create
200 * Due to template changes and style sheet changes that depend on them,
201 wiki rebuilds are recommended on upgrade to this version.
202 * Avoid .svn directories when installing from svn checkout.
203 * Fix sending of commit mails when new pages are added via the web.
204 * Add user(name) to the PageSpec for commit subscriptions.

206 for extended pagespecs. The old calling convention will still work for

211 more interface changes before 2.0.
212 * Updated Gujarati translation from Kartik Mistry. Closes: #421198
213 * Make pagespec_match return an object that can be stringified to tell
214 the reason why the match failed or succeeded.

239 * Enhance helponformatting and related documentation to supply more
240 information about available preprocessor directives.
241 * Add myself as a co-maintainer, with Joey's approval.
244 * Add support for PROFILE=1 to the Makefile, this turns on profiling of the
245 wiki build using Devel::Profiler (Dprof can't handle ikiwiki).
246 * Add a new %destsources hash, which maps between a destination file and
247 the source page used to create it, ie it's the reverse of %renderedfiles.

255 a file overlap with ikiwiki-plugin-table.

268 * Add feedshow parameter to inline, which can be useful for eg, removing
269 old posts from feeds when permalinks change.

275 ikiwiki (1.49) unstable; urgency=low
278 * Add --post-commit option, which allows for the case of a split web server
279 and RCS server (or a push mirror). With this the RCS server can have a
280 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
281 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
282 * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.
283 * Add a templates page to the basewiki. It will automatically list all
284 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.
285 * Include the note template in the basewiki.
286 * Add a popup template in the basewiki. CSS based on some by Martin Krafft.
287 * Make the note, popup, and plugin templates detect missing variables and be
288 self-documenting, listing the available variables.
289 * Hide excess backlinks and expand using CSS trick; control quantiy via
290 the numbacklinks setting.
291 * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
292 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
293 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
294 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.

298 than just a suggests, since OpenID is enabled by default.
299 * Fix a bug that caused link(foo) to succeed if page foo did not exist.
300 * Fix tags to page names that contain special characters.

330 that given link points based on the page doing the linking. Note that this
331 could make such PageSpecs match different things than before, if you
332 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.

338 that shouldn't appear in a printout: Search box, actions bar,
339 blog post form, tags, backlinks, and feed buttons.
340 * Finally fixed the longstanding inline removal bug.

441 dropdown when creating a new page.
442 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
443 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
444 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
445 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook

509 discussion pages, on a wiki that otherwise wouldn't allow it.
510 * Lots of CGI code reorg and cleanup.

542 * Improve use of svn merge, by specifying the file to merge, rather than
543 chdiring to the srcdir (which wasn't right when merging in a subdir).
545 * Always call rcs_update after a commit during a web edit, to work around
546 the problem described in bugs/svn_fails_to_update. Thanks to Ethan for the

578 interface returns proper utf-8 decoded strings, unlike the traditional
579 interface, so use the OO interface.

700 many other plugins. It's an easy way to boost ikiwiki from its default,
701 basic wiki, to a full-featured wiki, without manually picking the right
702 set of plugins. New plugins will be added to goodstuff from time to

707 * Avoid locking the wiki at all when handling some basic cgi stuff
708 (searches, recentchanges).

710 nothing more spohisticated will be needed.
711 * Add formbuilder_setup and formbuilder hooks.
712 * Split out a passwordauth module, that holds all the traditional password
713 based authentication etc code. It's enabled by default, but can be disabled
714 if you want only openid or some other auth method.
715 * Rename ikiwiki.pl so MakeMaker doesn't see it, and install it.
716 * Add some code to the build system that tries to determine if the
717 lib installation directory is in @INC. If it's not, munge ikiwiki
718 to hardcode the path to the lib directory. This should allow installing
719 ikiwiki in nonstandard locations, including home directories, by just

766 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
767 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
769 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
770 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the

784 password fields, which allows more web browsers to regognise it as a login
785 field, and is less confusing.

804 wikiname as the feed title.
805 Overriding the page title with meta title already overrode the rss feed
807 * Add an img plugin, based on Christian Mock's img plugin, but stripped
808 down to the bare essentials. Useful for handling large images on websites.
809 * Sanitize possibly problimatic characters out of the polygen grammar names,
810 just in case. Should not be exploitable anyway, since it only tries to run
811 polygen after finding the specified grammar file.

843 The plugin interface has been increased to version 1.01 for this change.
844 As few plugins use %renderedfiles I haven't done anything else to ensure
845 compatability of old plugins.

878 * Work on firming up the plugin interface:
879 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
880 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
881 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
882 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
883 like a proper perl module should.
884 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
885 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
886 export some other things.
887 * Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
888 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
889 * Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'"
890 to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.

977 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
978 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
979 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
980 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
981 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
982 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
983 multi-line quoted values.
984 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
985 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.

987 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
988 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
990 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
991 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
992 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
993 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
994 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
995 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
996 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
997 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
998 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
999 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
1000 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.

1069 * Man page format fixups.
1070 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
1071 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
1072 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
1073 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
1074 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
1075 forcing the link to lowercase.
1076 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
1077 with a given name exists.

1113 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..

1175 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
1177 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
1178 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1179 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1180 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1181 to perl code that does the matching.

1288 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1289 about changes to rss feeds.
1290 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1291 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1292 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1293 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1294 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1295 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1296 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.

1305 getting in the way of the preview.

1308 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1309 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1310 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1311 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1313 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1314 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1315 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1316 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1317 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1318 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1319 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1320 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1321 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1322 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1323 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1324 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1325 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1326 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1327 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1328 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1329 No code changes involved.

1348 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1349 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1350 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1351 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1353 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1354 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1355 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1356 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1357 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1358 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1360 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1361 given the readfile fix.
1362 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1363 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1365 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1366 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1367 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1368 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1369 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1371 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

1383 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1384 for some handy stuff like:
1385 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1386 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1387 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1388 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1389 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1390 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1391 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1392 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1393 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1395 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1396 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1397 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1398 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1399 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.

1419 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.

1434 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1435 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1436 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1437 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1438 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1439 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1440 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1441 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1443 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1444 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1445 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.

1499 * Smart globlist merging.
1500 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
1501 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
1502 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
1503 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
1504 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
1505 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
1506 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
1507 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
1508 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
1510 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
1511 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
1512 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
1514 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
1515 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
1516 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
1517 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
1518 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
1519 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
