3 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
4 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
5 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
6 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
7 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
8 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
9 always be tracked correctly.
10 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
12 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
13 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
14 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
15 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
16 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
17 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
18 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
19 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
20 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
21 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
22 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
23 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
24 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
25 not (if set from the page filename).
26 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
27 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
28 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
29 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.

173 * Add support for PROFILE=1 to the Makefile, this turns on profiling of the
174 wiki build using Devel::Profiler (Dprof can't handle ikiwiki).
175 * Add a new %destsources hash, which maps between a destination file and
176 the source page used to create it, ie it's the reverse of %renderedfiles.

198 old posts from feeds when permalinks change.

204 ikiwiki (1.49) unstable; urgency=low
207 * Add --post-commit option, which allows for the case of a split web server
208 and RCS server (or a push mirror). With this the RCS server can have a
209 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
210 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
211 * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.
212 * Add a templates page to the basewiki. It will automatically list all
213 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.
214 * Include the note template in the basewiki.
215 * Add a popup template in the basewiki. CSS based on some by Martin Krafft.
216 * Make the note, popup, and plugin templates detect missing variables and be
217 self-documenting, listing the available variables.
218 * Hide excess backlinks and expand using CSS trick; control quantiy via
219 the numbacklinks setting.
220 * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
221 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
222 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
223 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.

261 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.

365 This lets ikiwiki not build depend on perlmagic.

370 dropdown when creating a new page.
371 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
372 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
373 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
374 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook
375 (except for commit mails). The CGI then takes care of the updates the
376 commit hook would have done.

437 * Add an opendiscussion plugin that allows anonymous users to edit
438 discussion pages, on a wiki that otherwise wouldn't allow it.
439 * Lots of CGI code reorg and cleanup.

642 based authentication etc code. It's enabled by default, but can be disabled
643 if you want only openid or some other auth method.
644 * Rename ikiwiki.pl so MakeMaker doesn't see it, and install it.
645 * Add some code to the build system that tries to determine if the
646 lib installation directory is in @INC. If it's not, munge ikiwiki

692 instead of over and over. Typical speedup is ~4x. Max possible speedup:
694 * Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
695 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
696 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
698 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
699 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
700 previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots
701 (thousands) of pages.

706 ikiwiki, like a weblog. The examples can be copied into a user's wiki
707 for a quick start, without needing to learn everything about how to put

712 * Improve login/register process, the login dialog has only name and
713 password fields, which allows more web browsers to regognise it as a login
714 field, and is less confusing.
715 * Implemented expiry options for aggregate plugin.

717 due to a page they link to being added/removed. Mostly significant if
718 there are lots of pages.

737 down to the bare essentials. Useful for handling large images on websites.

807 * Work on firming up the plugin interface:
808 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
809 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
810 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
811 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
812 like a proper perl module should.
813 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
814 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
815 export some other things.
816 * Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
817 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
818 * Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'"
819 to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.

821 to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symbols from

906 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
907 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
908 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
909 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
910 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
911 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
912 multi-line quoted values.

917 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
919 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
920 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
921 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
922 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
923 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
924 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
925 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
926 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.

928 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
929 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.

1037 ikiwiki (1.16) unstable; urgency=low
1039 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
1040 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
1041 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
1042 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
1043 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
1044 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
1046 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
1047 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
1048 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
1049 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
1050 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
1052 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
1053 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
1054 matter what the input.
1055 * Disable tidy warnings too.
1056 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
1057 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks
1059 * Fix dates in rss feeds if running localised, so they're still rfc 822.

1093 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.

1102 * Fix issue with unicode filenames and updating the hyper estradier search
1103 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
1104 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
1106 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
1107 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1108 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1109 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1110 to perl code that does the matching.
1111 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
1112 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
1113 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.

1127 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.

1130 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
1131 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.

1135 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
1136 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
1137 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
1138 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was

1155 - Adds a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
1156 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
1157 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
1158 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified

1165 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
1166 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
1167 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
1168 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
1169 different than the source page for inlined pages.
1170 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
1171 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work

1191 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
1192 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
1193 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
1194 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
1195 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
1196 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
1197 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
1198 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
1199 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
1200 area, and also way slow.
1201 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.

1215 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
1216 for a page not being an orphan.
1217 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1218 about changes to rss feeds.
1219 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1220 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1221 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1222 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1223 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1224 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1225 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1226 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
1227 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1228 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
1230 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
1231 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
1232 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
1233 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
1234 getting in the way of the preview.
1235 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
1237 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1238 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1239 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1240 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1242 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1243 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1244 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1245 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1246 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1247 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1248 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1249 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1250 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1251 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1252 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1253 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1254 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1255 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1256 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1257 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1258 No code changes involved.
1259 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
1260 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

1277 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1278 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1279 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1280 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1282 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1283 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1284 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1285 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1286 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1287 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1289 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1290 given the readfile fix.
1291 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1292 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1294 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1295 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1296 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1297 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1298 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1300 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

1310 timezone, not as GMT.
1311 * More security review.
1312 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1313 for some handy stuff like:
1314 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1315 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1316 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1317 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1318 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1319 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1320 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1321 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1322 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1324 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1325 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1326 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1327 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1328 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
1329 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
1330 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
1331 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
1332 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
1333 * Doc updates for git.
1334 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
1336 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
1337 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still

1344 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
1345 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
1346 should be always valid again now.
1347 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
1348 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
1349 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
1350 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
1351 around with adding new stuff to the page template.

1353 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
1355 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
1356 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
1358 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
1359 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
1360 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
1361 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
1363 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1364 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1365 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1366 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1367 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1368 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1369 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1370 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1372 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1373 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1374 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1376 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1377 relative to the inlining page.)
1378 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.

1415 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.

1424 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
1425 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.

1427 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
1428 * Smart globlist merging.
