Now that it knows what pages it needs to build, ikiwiki runs two
compile passes. First, it runs `scan` hooks, which collect metadata about
the pages. Then it runs a page rendering pipeline, by calling in turn these
-hooks: `filter`, `preprocess`, `linkify`, `htmlize`, `postscan`,
+hooks: `filter`, `preprocess`, `linkify`, `htmlize`, `indexhtml`,
`pagetemplate`, `sanitize`, `format`.
After all necessary pages are built, it calls the `change` hook. Finally,
hook(type => "filter", id => "foo", call => \&filter);
-Runs on the raw source of a page, before anything else touches it, and can
-make arbitrary changes. The function is passed named parameters "page",
+Runs on the full raw source of a page, before anything else touches it, and
+can make arbitrary changes. The function is passed named parameters "page",
"destpage", and "content". It should return the filtered content.
### preprocess
If `hook` is passed an optional "longname" parameter, this value is used
when prompting a user to choose a page type on the edit page form.
-### postscan
+### indexhtml
- hook(type => "postscan", id => "foo", call => \&postscan);
+ hook(type => "indexhtml", id => "foo", call => \&indexhtml);
This hook is called once the page has been converted to html (but before
the generated html is put in a template). The most common use is to
update search indexes. Added in ikiwiki 2.54.
-The function is passed named parameters "page" and "content". Its return
-value is ignored.

ikiwiki, like generating a page, or part of a blog page, or an rss feed, or
a cgi. This hook allows modifying the variables available on those

used for a page in the wiki. The hook is passed a "page" parameter, and
should return the name of the template file to use (relative to the
template directory), or undef if it doesn't want to change the default
("page.tmpl").
+### pageactions
+
+ hook(type => "pageactions", id => "foo", call => \&pageactions);
+
+This hook allows plugins to add arbitrary actions to the action bar on a
+page (next to Edit, RecentChanges, etc). The hook is passed a "page"
+parameter, and can return a list of html fragments to add to the action
+bar.

### sanitize
hook(type => "sanitize", id => "foo", call => \&sanitize);
hook(type => "genwrapper", id => "foo", call => \&genwrapper);
This hook is used to inject C code (which it returns) into the `main`

## Exported variables
### `template($;@)`
-Creates and returns a [[!cpan HTML::Template]] object. The first parameter
-is the name of the template file. The optional remaining parameters are
-passed to `HTML::Template->new`.
+Creates and returns a [[!cpan HTML::Template]] object. (In a list context,
+returns the parameters needed to construct the obhect.)
+
+The first parameter is the name of the template file. The optional remaining
+parameters are passed to `HTML::Template->new`.
Normally, the template file is first looked for in the templates/ subdirectory
of the srcdir. Failing that, it is looked for in the templatedir.
If the directory name is not absolute, ikiwiki will assume it is in
the parent directory of the configured underlaydir.
-### `displaytime($;$)`
+### `displaytime($;$$)`
Given a time, formats it for display.
The optional second parameter is a strftime format to use to format the
time.
+If the third parameter is true, this is the publication time of a page.
+(Ie, set the html5 pubdate attribute.)
+
### `gettext`
This is the standard gettext function, although slightly optimised.
it might return the current revision ID of the file, and use that
information later when merging changes.
-#### `rcs_commit($$$;$$)`
+#### `rcs_commit(@)`
+
+Passed named parameters: `file`, `message`, `token` (from `rcs_prepedit`),
+and `session` (optional).
-Passed a file, message, token (from `rcs_prepedit`), user, and ip address.
Should try to commit the file. Returns `undef` on *success* and a version
of the page with the rcs's conflict markers on failure.
-#### `rcs_commit_staged($$$)`
+#### `rcs_commit_staged(@)`
+
+Passed named parameters: `message`, and `session` (optional).
-Passed a message, user, and ip address. Should commit all staged changes.
-Returns undef on success, and an error message on failure.
+Should commit all staged changes. Returns undef on success, and an
+error message on failure.
Changes can be staged by calls to `rcs_add`, `rcs_remove`, and
`rcs_rename`.
