However, as far as I can tell, ikiwiki has no functionality which can represent dependencies between bugs and allow pagespecs to select based on dependencies. For instance, I can't write a pagespec which selects all bugs with no dependencies on bugs not marked as done. --[[JoshTriplett]] + +> I started having a think about this. I'm going to start with the idea that expanding +> the pagespec syntax is the way to attack this.

Initial patch attached. This one doesn't quite work. +And there is still a lot of debugging stuff in there. + +At the moment I've added a new preprocessor plugin, `definepagespec`, which is like +shortcut for pagespecs. To reference a named pagespec, use `~` like this: + + [ [!definepagespec name="bugs" spec="bugs/* and !*/Discussion"]] + [ [!definepagespec name="openbugs" spec="~bugs and !link(done)"]] + [ [!definepagespec name="readybugs" spec="~openbugs and !link(~openbugs)"]] + +At the moment the problem is in `match_link()` when we're trying to find a sub-page that +matches the appropriate page spec. There is no good list of pages available to iterate over. + + foreach my $nextpage (keys %IkiWiki::pagesources) + +does not give me a good list of pages. I found the same thing when I was working on +this todo [[todo/Add_a_plugin_to_list_available_pre-processor_commands]]. + +> I'm not sure why iterating over `%pagesources` wouldn't work here, it's the same method +> used by anything that needs to match a pagespec against all pages..? --[[Joey]] + +>> My uchecked hypothesis is that %pagesources is created after the refresh hook. +>> I've also been concerned about how globally defined pagespec shortcuts would interact with +>> the page dependancy system.
