7 * Allow raw html in the rst plugin.
8 * Add --set-option command line switch.
9 * pagetemplate: don't display template name
10 * Add rel=tag attribute to tag links, supporting that microformat, as well
11 as allowing them to be styled specially. Thanks, NicolasLimare.
12 * Add sessioncgi hook.
13 * Move blog form code out of CGI.pm and into the inline plugin.
14 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
15 * Updated French translation from Cyril Brulebois. Closes: #437181
16 * The toc directive doesn't work well or make sense inside an inlined page.
17 Disable it when the page with the toc is nested inside another page.
18 * Apply a patch from NicolasLimare adding modification date tags to rss and
19 atom feeds, and also changing the publication time for a feed to the
20 newest modiciation time (was newest creation time).
21 * The patch also adds dcterms:creator to rss items that have a known author.
22 * Support pagespec "functions" with no parameters, like included() in the
24 * Add time=mtime option to postsparkline.
25 * Fix --libdir to work at the command line.
26 * Plugins can now be written as standalone external programs, which can
27 be written in any language that can do XML RPC.
28 * Change yet again how unhandled and escaped preprocessor directives are
29 re-output onto the page. Hopefully I finally got it right..
30 * Fix bug in deletion/move during edit code introduced in 1.44. Need to take
31 the underlaydir into account.
32 * Fix bug when editing file from underlaydir, need to rcs_add it even though
33 a page creation isn't occuring.
34 * Various minor fixes and stylistic improvements suggested by Perl::Critic.
35 * Applied Jeremie Koenig's pluggable editpage buttons patch:
36 - add a title to the editpage form;
37 - pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder_setup
38 hooks, so we can add ours;
39 - relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
41 - de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template
42 (This was needed for compatability with a bug in CGI::FormBuilder
43 3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)
44 * Pass buttons to all other formbuilder_setup hooks too.

51 * Wrap the editpage template in the standard misctemplate, this allows the
52 pagetemplate hook to work for that page.
53 * Above change fixes the favicon plugin to work on edit pages.
54 * Correct some issues with escaped preprocessor directives.
55 * Make the map plugin notice when pages in the map are deleted and update
57 * Add a htmlext config option, this can be used to make ikiwiki generate
58 html files with a different extension.
59 * Fix graphviz plugin to not try to read images as utf-8; they might
60 sometimes contain invalid utf-8 byte sequences. Thanks,
62 * Fix re-rendering of pages when a linked to page goes away. This was broken
63 in version 1.50 with the addition of %destsources. Thanks, Ethan
65 * Add templatefile hook.
66 * Add pagetemplate plugin, which allows changing the template used for
67 a page. (Not to be confused with the hook of the same name..)

73 ikiwiki (2.4) unstable; urgency=low
75 * Make the toc plugin use html-compatible anchors. This is necessary since
76 most web sites serve ikiwiki xhtml files as text/html and mozilla browsers
77 get confused. So it's best for ikiwiki to follow the compatability
78 recommendations in appendix C of the XHTML spec. Closes: #432045
79 * Support building on systems that lack asprintf.
80 * mercurial getctime is currently broken, apparently by some change in
81 mercurial version 0.9.4. Turn the failing test case into a TODO test case.
82 * Fix links to alternate stylesheets when usedirs is enabled. Closes: #432556
83 * Use type= not style= in html for alternate stylesheets, which is more
84 correct (but in my testing both epiphany and iceweasel work ok with

97 normalisation of configs etc can do so.

108 ikiwiki (2.2) unstable; urgency=low
110 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
111 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
112 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
113 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
114 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
115 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
116 always be tracked correctly.
117 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
119 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
120 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
121 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
122 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
123 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
124 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
125 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
126 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
127 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
128 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
129 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
130 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
131 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
132 not (if set from the page filename).
133 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
134 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
135 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
136 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.
137 * Correct some issues with display of unhandled preprocessor directives.
138 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth adding support for using globs in link()
140 * Explode some of the more insane regexps.
141 * Add test suite for preprocessor directive parsing.

153 styled using the stylesheet, rather than by creating signin and prefs

161 * Add all=no option to conditional, can be used to form conditionals that do
162 not need to examine every page in the wiki.
163 * Add the needsbuild hook. Plugins can use this to manipulate which files
164 ikiwiki builds when refreshing the wiki.
167 * Add an account-creation password as a simple anti-spam mechanism. If
168 set in the wiki setup, passwordauth will require the password in
169 order to create an account.
172 * Updated Czech translation from Miroslav Kure.
173 * Apply patch from Paweł Tęcza to avoid using -L in Makefile as it's not
174 available in older finds.

199 not work on FreeBSD. Thanks to Henrik Brix Andersen for the patch.
202 * Use fieldsets in the preferences form to group related options together.
203 Especially cleans up the ordering of the admin's preferences form.
204 * Use a fieldset to set off the openid entry from the rest of the login
206 * Enable openid logins by default.
207 * Enable usedirs by default.
210 * fieldset support appeared in CGI::FormBuilder 3.05, so increase
211 version in Depends on libcgi-formbuilder-perl to 3.05

228 * Work around bug #420636 by, if XML::Parser crashes, running the feed
229 content though Encode::decode_utf8.
232 * Change basewiki CSS to not put a border around images used as links.
235 * Move the footer div to enclose tags and links too.
236 * More style sheet updates, remove the hack that used the tags div to create
238 * Due to template changes and style sheet changes that depend on them,
239 wiki rebuilds are recommended on upgrade to this version.
240 * Avoid .svn directories when installing from svn checkout.
241 * Fix sending of commit mails when new pages are added via the web.
242 * Add user(name) to the PageSpec for commit subscriptions.
243 * pagespec_match() has changed to take named parameters, to better allow
244 for extended pagespecs. The old calling convention will still work for
246 * The calling convention for functions in the IkiWiki::PageSpec namespace
247 has changed so they are passed named parameters.
248 * Plugin interface version increased to 2.00 since I don't anticipate any
249 more interface changes before 2.0.
250 * Updated Gujarati translation from Kartik Mistry. Closes: #421198
251 * Make pagespec_match return an object that can be stringified to tell
252 the reason why the match failed or succeeded.
253 * Add testpagespec plugin, which might be useful to see why a pagespec isn't

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

293 a file overlap with ikiwiki-plugin-table.

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

313 ikiwiki (1.49) unstable; urgency=low
316 * Add --post-commit option, which allows for the case of a split web server
317 and RCS server (or a push mirror). With this the RCS server can have a
318 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
319 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
320 * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.
321 * Add a templates page to the basewiki. It will automatically list all
322 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.
323 * Include the note template in the basewiki.
324 * Add a popup template in the basewiki. CSS based on some by Martin Krafft.

326 self-documenting, listing the available variables.
327 * Hide excess backlinks and expand using CSS trick; control quantiy via
328 the numbacklinks setting.
329 * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
330 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
331 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
332 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.

367 * Fix link() PageSpecs to not just look at the raw link text, but at where
368 that given link points based on the page doing the linking. Note that this
369 could make such PageSpecs match different things than before, if you
370 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.
371 * This required changing the match_* interface, adding a third parameter.
372 * Allow link() PageSpecs to match relative, as is allowed with globs.

374 * Add an bug tracker to the softwaresite example.
375 * Make ikiwiki's stylesheet support printing by hiding parts of the page
376 that shouldn't appear in a printout: Search box, actions bar,
377 blog post form, tags, backlinks, and feed buttons.
378 * Finally fixed the longstanding inline removal bug.

427 previous ugly hack used to avoid writing rss feeds in previews.
428 * Fix the img plugin to avoid overwriting images in previews. Instead it
429 does all the work to make sure the resizing works, and dummys up a resized
430 image using width and height attributes.
431 * Also fixes img preview display, the links were wrong in preview before.
432 * Add a sparkline plugin.
433 * Add a postsparkline plugin.
434 * The slash escaping when adding to a blog from the CGI was not working
435 since it ended up being double-escaped. Instead, just remove slashes.
436 * Fix some nasty issues with page name escaping during previewing
437 (introduced in 1.44).
438 * Add a table plugin, derived from the one written by Victor Moral.

470 those dreaded "Read more" links in blogs.

474 This lets ikiwiki not build depend on perlmagic.
475 * Detect old versions of xgettext and avoid using them.
476 * perl is broken: print "" || die fails! Work around this insanity.
477 * Smarter detection of no-op changes to po files.
478 * Elegant patch from Ethan to clean up the display of page names in the
479 dropdown when creating a new page.
480 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
481 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
482 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
483 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook
484 (except for commit mails). The CGI then takes care of the updates the

516 * Many changes to make ikiwiki very resistant to write failures
517 including out of disk space situations. ikiwiki should never leave

919 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins

1031 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
1032 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
1033 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
1034 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
1035 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
1036 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
1037 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
1038 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.

1041 from a different directory.

1107 * Man page format fixups.
1108 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
1109 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
1110 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
1111 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
1112 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
1113 forcing the link to lowercase.
1114 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
1115 with a given name exists.
1116 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,

1149 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
1150 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
1151 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
1152 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.

1215 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
1216 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1217 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1218 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1219 to perl code that does the matching.

1326 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1327 about changes to rss feeds.
1328 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1329 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1330 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1331 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1332 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1333 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1334 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.

1343 getting in the way of the preview.

1346 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1347 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1348 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1349 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1351 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1352 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1353 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1354 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1355 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1356 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1357 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1358 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1359 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1360 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1361 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1362 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1363 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1364 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1365 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1366 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1367 No code changes involved.

1387 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1388 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1389 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1391 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1392 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1393 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1394 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1395 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1396 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1398 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1399 given the readfile fix.
1400 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1401 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1403 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1404 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1405 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1406 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1407 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1409 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

1421 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1422 for some handy stuff like:
1423 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1424 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1425 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1426 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1427 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1428 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1429 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1430 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1431 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1433 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1434 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1435 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1436 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1437 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.

1472 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1473 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1474 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1475 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1476 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1477 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1478 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1479 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1481 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1482 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1483 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1485 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1486 relative to the inlining page.)

1509 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
1510 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
1511 on upgrade to this version.
1512 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
1513 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
1514 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
1515 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
1516 plugins) during a page render.
1517 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
1518 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
1520 * Added a plugin system.
1521 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
1522 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
1523 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
1524 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
1525 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
1527 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
1528 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
1529 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
1530 different location) already exists.
1531 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
1532 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
1533 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
1534 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
1535 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
1536 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
1537 * Smart globlist merging.
1538 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
1539 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
1540 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
1541 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
1542 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
1543 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
1544 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
1545 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
1546 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
1548 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
1549 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
1550 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
1552 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
1553 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
1554 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
1555 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
1556 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
1557 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
