3 * Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
4 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This

13 * Add a tail fin^W^Wsidebar plugin by Tuomo Valkonen.
14 * If a page links to itself, mark up the link text in a span with
15 class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
16 defined for that though.
17 * Call filter hooks on inlined page content.
18 * Support inlining pages raw, rather than creating a blog.
19 * Clean up yes/no parameter parsing in inline plugin.
20 * Implemented better cycle detection in the inline plugin; nested inlines
22 * Add a map plugin contributed by Alessandro Dotti Contra.
23 * Add otl format plugin, which handles files as created by vimoutliner.
24 * Fix ikiwiki-mass-rebuild to work in the way the postinst uses it.
25 * Add first draft at a Restructured Text (rst) plugin, by Sergio
26 Talens-Oliag. Note that this has many known issues -- see the caveats on

35 * Relicense the templates and basewiki under the 2-clause BSD license.
36 Since these can easily become part of other people's websites, they
37 should be under as permissive a license as possible.
38 * Add --syslog config option, to log to the syslog.
39 * Catch failing IPC::Open2 in tidy plugin and retry in case this is a
40 transient failure to fork (which I've seen happen in the wild).

54 ikiwiki (1.18) unstable; urgency=low
56 * The last release accidentially installed ikiwiki as ikiwiki.pl, now fixed.
58 * Man page format fixups.
59 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
60 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
61 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
62 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
63 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
64 forcing the link to lowercase.
65 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
66 with a given name exists.
67 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
68 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
69 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.

76 * Disable tidy generator tag.
77 * Move tidy back to sanitize hook, found out how to only show body.
78 * Turn off tidy indentation too.
79 * Turn on HTML::Template loop_context_vars; not actually used in stock
80 templates but can be useful for things like making comma-delimited lists
81 of tags or what have you.
82 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
83 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on
84 case-sensative filesystems like OSX.

86 in case it was installed as one. Then fall back to trying

89 installation procedure in the upstream tarball.
90 * Set die_on_bad_params => 0 for all templates, to allow users to modify
91 them without annoyances.

93 around the meta plugin's lack of caching of title metadata across runs.

97 ikiwiki (1.16) unstable; urgency=low
99 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
100 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
101 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
102 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
103 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
104 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
106 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
107 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
108 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
109 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
110 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
112 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
113 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
114 matter what the input.
115 * Disable tidy warnings too.
116 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
117 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks

142 * ikiwiki can now download and aggregate feeds with its new aggregate
143 plugin, so it's possible to implement a Planet using ikiwiki!
144 * Add a run_hooks function for the common task of running all hooks of a
146 * Add a savestate hook.
147 * Don't put blog post forms on pages if there's no cgiurl set.
148 * --setup --refresh no longer rebuilds wrappers. Use --setup --refresh
149 --wrappers to do that.
150 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
151 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.
152 * Change meta tags to use html entity-escaped text for values, so that
153 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.
154 * Depend and build-depend on HTML::Parser for HTML::Entities which is used
156 * Make --rebuild also cause --aggregate to re-download and write aggregated

159 * Include title metadata on aggregated posts for capitalised and un-munged
161 * Title metadata of inlined pages now shows up in blogs and rss feeds.
162 * Fix issue with unicode filenames and updating the hyper estradier search
163 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
164 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
166 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
167 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
168 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
169 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
170 to perl code that does the matching.
171 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
172 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
173 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.
174 * Wiki rebuild needed on upgrade to this version due to PageSpec change.
175 * Add support for creation_month and creation_year to PageSpec.

185 the backlinks for each page, or a del.icio.us style cloud.

187 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.
188 * Patch from Alessandro Dotti Contra to clean up backlinks and navbar
189 display, running them through pagetitle. This removes ugly underscores and
190 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
191 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.
192 * Polygen plugin from Enrico.
193 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
194 * Locale patch from Faidon:
195 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
196 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
197 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
198 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was

215 - Adds a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
216 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
217 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
218 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
220 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
221 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
222 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also
224 * Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
225 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
226 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
227 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
228 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
229 different than the source page for inlined pages.
230 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
231 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work

239 * Noticed a bug in the wikitext markup plugin -- it made CamelCase links the
240 default throughout the wiki, not only on wikitext pages. Decided to call
241 this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
242 that is independant of wikitext.

249 * Improve display of parentlinks and page title of toplevel index page.
250 * Patch from Faidon to use svn --limit when possible for recentchanges,
251 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
252 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
253 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
254 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
255 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
256 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
257 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
258 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
259 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
260 area, and also way slow.
261 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.
263 * Consolidated all decode_utf8 in FormBuilder's fields to make the code more
264 readable and avoid future mistakes. The patch seems to work and for the
265 first time I have a UTF-8 username ;-) (Faidon)

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

337 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
338 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
339 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
340 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
342 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
343 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
344 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
345 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
346 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
347 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
349 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
350 given the readfile fix.
351 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
352 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
354 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
355 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
356 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
357 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
358 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
360 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

368 * Add --timeformat config option to allow changing how dates are displayed.
369 Note that as a side effect, dates will now be displayed using the local
370 timezone, not as GMT.
371 * More security review.
372 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
373 for some handy stuff like:
374 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
375 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
376 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
377 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
378 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
379 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
380 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
381 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
382 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
384 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
385 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
386 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
387 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
388 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
389 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
390 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
391 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
392 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
393 * Doc updates for git.
394 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
396 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
397 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still

404 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
405 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
406 should be always valid again now.
407 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
408 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
409 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
410 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
411 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
412 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
413 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do

416 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
418 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
419 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
420 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
421 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
423 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
424 fix and make it a bit more flexible
425 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
426 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
427 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
428 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
429 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
430 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
432 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
433 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
434 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
436 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
437 relative to the inlining page.)

460 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
461 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild

463 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
464 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
465 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
466 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
467 plugins) during a page render.

475 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.

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

487 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.

491 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
492 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
