+ hook(type => "refresh", id => "foo", call => \&refresh);
+
+This hook is called just before ikiwiki scans the wiki for changed files.
+It's useful for plugins that need to create or modify a source page. The
+function is passed no values.
+
+### needsbuild
+
+ hook(type => "needsbuild", id => "foo", call => \&needsbuild);
+
+This allows a plugin to manipulate the list of files that need to be
+built when the wiki is refreshed. The function is passed a reference to an
+array of pages that will be rebuilt, and can modify the array, either
+adding or removing files from it.
+
+### scan
+
+ hook(type => "scan", id => "foo", call => \&scan);
+
+This hook is called early in the process of building the wiki, and is used
+as a first pass scan of the page, to collect metadata about the page. It's
+mostly used to scan the page for WikiLinks, and add them to `%links`.
+Present in IkiWiki 2.40 and later.
+
+The function is passed named parameters "page" and "content". Its return
+value is ignored.
+
+### filter
+
+ 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",
+"destpage", and "content". It should return the filtered content.
+
+### preprocess
+
+Adding a [[ikiwiki/PreProcessorDirective]] is probably the most common use
+of a plugin.
+
+ hook(type => "preprocess", id => "foo", call => \&preprocess);
+
+Replace "foo" with the command name that will be used inside brackets for
+the preprocessor directive.
+
+Each time the directive is processed, the referenced function (`preprocess`
+in the example above) is called, and is passed named parameters. A "page"
+parameter gives the name of the page that embedded the preprocessor
+directive, while a "destpage" parameter gives the name of the page the
+content is going to (different for inlined pages), and a "preview"
+parameter is set to a true value if the page is being previewed. All
+parameters included in the directive are included as named parameters as
+well. Whatever the function returns goes onto the page in place of the
+directive.
+
+An optional "scan" parameter, if set to a true value, makes the hook be
+called during the preliminary scan that ikiwiki makes of updated pages,
+before begining to render pages. This parameter should be set to true if
+the hook modifies data in `%links`. Note that doing so will make the hook
+be run twice per page build, so avoid doing it for expensive hooks. (As an
+optimisation, if your preprocessor hook is called in a void contets, you
+can assume it's being run in scan mode.)
+
+Note that if the [[htmlscrubber]] is enabled, html in
+[[ikiwiki/PreProcessorDirective]] output is sanitised, which may limit what
+your plugin can do. Also, the rest of the page content is not in html
+format at preprocessor time. Text output by a preprocessor directive will
+be linkified and passed through markdown (or whatever engine is used to
+htmlize the page) along with the rest of the page.
+
+### linkify
+
+ hook(type => "linkify", id => "foo", call => \&linkify);
+
+This hook is called to convert [[WikiLinks|WikiLink]] on the page into html
+links. The function is passed named parameters "page", "destpage", and
+"content". It should return the linkified content. Present in IkiWiki 2.40
+and later.
+
+Plugins that implement linkify must also implement a scan hook, that scans
+for the links on the page and adds them to `%links`.
+
+### htmlize
+
+ hook(type => "htmlize", id => "ext", call => \&htmlize);
+
+Runs on the source of a page and turns it into html. The id parameter
+specifies the filename extension that a file must have to be htmlized using
+this plugin. This is how you can add support for new and exciting markup
+languages to ikiwiki.
+
+The function is passed named parameters: "page" and "content" and should
+return the htmlized content.
+
+### pagetemplate
+
+ hook(type => "pagetemplate", id => "foo", call => \&pagetemplate);
+
+[[Templates|wikitemplates]] are filled out for many different things in
+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
+templates. The function is passed named parameters. The "page" and
+"destpage" parameters are the same as for a preprocess hook. The "template"
+parameter is a [[cpan HTML::Template]] object that is the template that
+will be used to generate the page. The function can manipulate that
+template object.
+
+The most common thing to do is probably to call `$template->param()` to add
+a new custom parameter to the template.
