1 Very nice! There are some rough spots yes, but this looks exactly as I'd
2 hoped it would, and seems close to being ready for merging.
4 A few observations, in approximate order of priority:
6 * What's the copyright and license of showdown? Please include that from
8 * Done. Check licences folder
9 * What happens if there are concurrent edits? The CGI.pm modification to
10 save an edited wikiwyg part doesn't seem to check if the source file has
11 changed in the meantime, so if the part has moved around, it might
12 replace the wrong part on saving. I've not tested this.
13 * When you click the edit button, the exact same protocol is used for saving.
14 However when you double click to edit, this still is possibly an issue.
15 * The stuff you have in destdir now really belongs in basewiki so it's
16 copied over to any destdir.
18 * Personally, I'm not sure if I need double-click to edit a section in my
19 wiki, but I'd love it if the edit form in the cgi could use wikiwyg. Seems
20 like both of these could be independent options. Doable, I'm sure?
22 * It would be good to move as much as possible of the inlined javascript in
23 wikiwyg.tmpl out to a separate .js file to save space in the rendered
26 * Both this plugin and the [[Gallery]] are turning out
27 to need to add a bunch of pages to the basewiki. I wonder what would be a
28 good way to do this, without bloating the basewiki when the plugins arn't
29 used. Perhaps the underlaydir concept needs to be expanded so it's a set
30 of directories, which plugins can add to. Perhaps you should work with
31 arpitjain on this so both plugins can benefit. (The smiley plugin would
32 also benefit from this..)
33 * Done. All plugin files are now stored in a tarball. IkiWiki checks for
34 <plugin name>.tar.gz in the basedir and if the plugin is being used, then
35 it extracts the files to destdir. Currently IkiWiki does not render these
36 files though (my plugin doesn't need them to be rendered). However it wouldn't
37 be too hard to modify it to render them.
38 * Is there any way of only loading enough of wikiwyg by default to catch
39 the section double-clicks, and have it load the rest on the fly? I'm
40 thinking about initial page load time when visiting a wikiwyg-using wiki
41 for the first time. I count 230k or so of data that a browser downloads
43 * Done-ish. I fixed it so that all of the javascript files(except for the main two)
44 are loaded after the content is loaded. It is possible to make is so that
45 the files are only loaded when you double click, however that is *a lot*
46 more work, plus it will slow the load time for wikiwyg. But if you would
47 prefer that the files only load after double clicking, I can do that. Also,
48 I'm working on reducing the file sizes via [Javascript Compression][]. Theoretically,
49 I can get the size down to about 70kb, I'm working out the kinks now.
53 Oh, by the way, let me know if I forgot to tarball anything. --[[TaylorKillian]]

59 Some more comments, on version 1.6. You seem to be making nice progress.
63 * I don't really like the tarball approach. Doesn't feel like the right
64 approach somehow. A list of underlay directories feels to me like a
65 better approach. One reason is that it's more general than a tarball tied
66 to a given plugin. A list of underlay directories could also be used to
67 prefer a translated underlay, and use the english version of untranslated
69 * When is the WIKIWYG variable in misc.tmpl used?
70 * I wish there were a good way to move the code to handle saving a part of
71 a page into the plugin. But there doesn't seem to be one that's any
72 cleaner than keeping the code where it is. So I'll probably just apply
74 * Your patch exports run_hooks, but I don't see the plugin using that.
75 * I don't know about exporting pagetitle. So far, only the inline plugin
76 needs to use that function, I generally only export things after it's
77 clear a lot of plugins will need them.
81 * Would it be possible to provide a diff between wikiwyg upstream and any
82 modifications you made to its files? I'm not sure which version you used,
83 so I'm seeing changes in diffing that I'm unsure if you made..
84 * If the files aren't modified, would it be better for users to get them
85 from the wikiwgy upstream, instead of including them in the plugin? (If so,
86 they'd go in their own Debian package..)
90 * What are your thoughts on handling plugins? Just make preview do a
92 * How do I configure it to only support whole-page editing with wikiwyg and
93 not insert the javascript into html pages?
94 * When editing a whole page with wikiwyg, I think it would be good to keep
95 the save, preview, cancel buttons at the bottom like they are in a
96 regular page edit. Also the comments box. Kind of a least suprise thing, so that enabling
97 wikiwyg for whole-page editing basically just changes how the edit box
98 behaves and keeps the rest of the behavior the same. And I think the preview
99 button should show a preview rendered server-side, like with a regular edit,
100 since such a preview is able to support all plugins.
102 Everything else looks fine and ready for merging. If, that is, you think
103 I should include the plugin with all of its java code in ikiwiki. Thoughts?
