17 ikiwiki (1.18) unstable; urgency=low
19 * The last release accidentially installed ikiwiki as ikiwiki.pl, now fixed.
21 * Man page format fixups.
22 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
23 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
24 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
25 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
26 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
27 forcing the link to lowercase.
28 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
29 with a given name exists.
30 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
31 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
32 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.
33 * Recommend rebuilding wikis on upgrade to this version.

39 * Disable tidy generator tag.
40 * Move tidy back to sanitize hook, found out how to only show body.
41 * Turn off tidy indentation too.
42 * Turn on HTML::Template loop_context_vars; not actually used in stock
43 templates but can be useful for things like making comma-delimited lists
44 of tags or what have you.
45 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
46 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on
47 case-sensative filesystems like OSX.
48 * Improve markdown loading. First, try to load it as a proper perl module,
49 in case it was installed as one. Then fall back to trying
51 * Document in install page how to install markdown, since it has no
52 installation procedure in the upstream tarball.
53 * Set die_on_bad_params => 0 for all templates, to allow users to modify
54 them without annoyances.
55 * Suck in the page content when generating an inline archive page, to work
56 around the meta plugin's lack of caching of title metadata across runs.

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

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

148 the backlinks for each page, or a del.icio.us style cloud.
149 * Build-depend on libtext-wikiformat-perl, so that the syntax check of
150 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.
151 * Patch from Alessandro Dotti Contra to clean up backlinks and navbar
152 display, running them through pagetitle. This removes ugly underscores and
153 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
154 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.
155 * Polygen plugin from Enrico.
156 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
157 * Locale patch from Faidon:
158 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
159 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
160 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
161 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was
163 * Add getopt hook type, this allows plugins to add new command-line options.
164 * Add --tagbase option to tag plugin.
165 * Add exclude option in setup files, works same as --exclude.
166 * Put categories in rss feeds for tagged items.

178 - Adds a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
179 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
180 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
181 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
183 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
184 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
185 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also
187 * Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
188 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
189 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
190 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
191 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
192 different than the source page for inlined pages.
193 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
194 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work
195 properly, with correct links generated.

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

213 * Patch from Faidon to use svn --limit when possible for recentchanges,
214 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
215 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
216 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
217 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
218 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
219 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
220 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
221 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
222 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
223 area, and also way slow.
224 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.
226 * Consolidated all decode_utf8 in FormBuilder's fields to make the code more
227 readable and avoid future mistakes. The patch seems to work and for the
228 first time I have a UTF-8 username ;-) (Faidon)

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

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

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

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

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

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