3 * Add an openid plugin to support logging in using OpenID.
4 * Web commits by OpenID users will record the full OpenID url for the user,
5 but in recentchanges, these urls will be converted to a simplified display
7 * Modified svn, git, tla backends to recognise such web commits.
8 * Move httpauth support to a plugin.
9 * Add openidsignup config option.
10 * Make the openid plugin support the callbacks from myopenid.com via its
13 * Introduce the goodstuff bundle. This is a kind of plugin, that just enables
14 many other plugins. It's an easy way to boost ikiwiki from its default,
15 basic wiki, to a full-featured wiki, without manually picking the right
16 set of plugins. New plugins will be added to goodstuff from time to
18 * Change how post signin actions are propigated through the signin process;
19 they're now stored in the session.
20 * Add optional "desc" parameter to shortcut definitions.
21 * Avoid locking the wiki at all when handling some basic cgi stuff
22 (searches, recentchanges).
23 * Add "last" parameter to hook function. Very basic ordering, and hopefully
24 nothing more spohisticated will be needed.
25 * Add formbuilder_setup and formbuilder hooks.
26 * Split out a passwordauth module, that holds all the traditional password
27 based authentication etc code. It's enabled by default, but can be disabled
28 if you want only openid or some other auth method.
29 * Rename ikiwiki.pl so MakeMaker doesn't see it, and install it.
30 * Add some code to the build system that tries to determine if the
31 lib installation directory is in @INC. If it's not, munge ikiwiki
32 to hardcode the path to the lib directory. This should allow installing
33 ikiwiki in nonstandard locations, including home directories, by just
34 setting PREFIX at build time.
35 * Fix nested examples directory in deb.
36 * Add a test suite for the mercurial backend, contributed by Emanuele Aina.
37 * Add a test suite for the svn backend.
38 * Daemonize before sending RPC pings, since that can take a while
40 * Daemonize before sending commit mails, as that can also take a long
41 time/hang if the mail server is unhappy.
42 * Factor out commit mail sending code into new function.
43 * Change rcs_commit, it is now passed the name of the user doing the commit
44 and their IP address, and needs to construct its own commit message
45 containing them, or do something more appropriate for the given RCS.
46 * Add softwaresite example.
48 * Add quick mode for archive page generation.

65 FORM-SUBMIT unusable on customised formbuilder templates. For now,
66 hardcode the submit buttons in editpage.tmpl instead of using the

74 * Add a separate pass to find page links, and only render each page once,
75 instead of over and over. Typical speedup is ~4x. Max possible speedup:
77 * Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
78 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
79 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
81 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
82 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
83 previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots

88 * Add examples page with some examples of things that can be done using
89 ikiwiki, like a weblog. The examples can be copied into a user's wiki
90 for a quick start, without needing to learn everything about how to put
92 * Install the source of the examples into /usr/share/doc/ikiwiki/examples.
93 * Add perlmagick to build-depends so syntax check of img plugin works.
95 * Improve login/register process, the login dialog has only name and
96 password fields, which allows more web browsers to regognise it as a login
97 field, and is less confusing.
98 * Implemented expiry options for aggregate plugin.
99 * Use precalculated backlinks info when determining if files need an update
100 due to a page they link to being added/removed. Mostly significant if
101 there are lots of pages.

103 pile up rather badly. (Probably not the best way to deal with this

115 an exception for the wiki's toplevel index page, which will still use the
116 wikiname as the feed title.
117 Overriding the page title with meta title already overrode the rss feed
119 * Add an img plugin, based on Christian Mock's img plugin, but stripped
120 down to the bare essentials. Useful for handling large images on websites.
121 * Sanitize possibly problimatic characters out of the polygen grammar names,
122 just in case. Should not be exploitable anyway, since it only tries to run
123 polygen after finding the specified grammar file.
124 * Add missing dependency on the URI perl module.
125 * Add basic spam fighting tool for admins: An admin's prefs page now allows
126 editing a list of banned users.

138 items from renderedfiles the first time per build.

149 using HTTP Authentication instead of ikiwiki's built in authentication.
150 Useful for eg, large sites with their own previously existing user auth
151 setup. Closes: #384534
152 * Change %renderedfiles to store an array of files rendered from a given
153 source file, to allow tracking of extra rendered files like rss feeds.
154 * Note that plugins that accessed this variable will need to be updated!
155 The plugin interface has been increased to version 1.01 for this change.
156 As few plugins use %renderedfiles I haven't done anything else to ensure
157 compatability of old plugins.
158 * Add will_render function to the plugin interface, used to register that a
159 page renders a destination file, and do some security checks. Previously
160 but no longer rendered files will be cleaned up.
161 * Use will_render in the inline and linkmap plugins.

188 ikiwiki (1.27) unstable; urgency=low
190 * Work on firming up the plugin interface:
191 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
192 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
193 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
194 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
195 like a proper perl module should.
196 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
197 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
198 export some other things.
199 * Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
200 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
201 * Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'"
202 to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.
203 * Anyone with a third-party ikiwiki plugin is strongly encouraged
204 to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symbols from
206 * Link debian/changelog and debian/news to NEWS and CHANGELOG.
207 * Support hyperestradier version 1.4.2, which adds a new required phraseform
209 * If an inlined page has a permalink, link the page title to that.
210 * Patch from Recai to use utf8 when reading the setup file, so that
211 utf8 wikinames from there will be used properly.
212 * Patch from Recai to kill utf-8 on the wiki name when generating the

218 during setup if the wikiname contains utf8.

227 the original markdown or the one in Debian.
228 * Version the libcgi-session-perl dependency, some features that need
229 the new version are used in some cases (sslcookie).

231 * Updated ikiwiki.svgz from Recai, includes an icon and is used to generate
232 a multi-resolution favicon.ico.
233 * README.Debian: typo Closes: #388110
234 * chomp trailing newline at the end of templates read in by the template

241 line by test rendering a single page.

289 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
290 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
291 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
292 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
293 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
294 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
295 multi-line quoted values.
296 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
297 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
298 * Add a template plugin.
299 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
300 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
302 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
303 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
304 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
305 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
306 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
307 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
308 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
309 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
310 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
311 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
312 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
313 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
314 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
315 from a different directory.
316 * Generalised preprocesser loop protection code.
317 * Patch from James Westby to allow a description to be set for rss feeds.
318 * Patch from James Westby to add a template for the search form.
319 * Added a ddate plugin.
320 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
321 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
322 * Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
323 to the preferences page.
324 * Add toc (table of contents) plugin.
325 * Change htmlize, format, and sanitize hooks to use named parameters.
326 * Patch from James Westby to add an actions option to inline; this
327 adds Edit and Discussion links at the end of blog entries.
328 * Due to some css changes, you'll want to rebuild your wiki on upgrade
329 to this version. Will be handled automatically by the deb.

338 class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
339 defined for that though.

381 * Man page format fixups.
382 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
383 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
384 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
385 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
386 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
387 forcing the link to lowercase.
388 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
389 with a given name exists.
390 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
391 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages

509 * Build-depend on libtext-wikiformat-perl, so that the syntax check of
510 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.
511 * Patch from Alessandro Dotti Contra to clean up backlinks and navbar
512 display, running them through pagetitle. This removes ugly underscores and
513 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
514 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.
515 * Polygen plugin from Enrico.
516 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
517 * Locale patch from Faidon:
518 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
519 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
520 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
521 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was
523 * Add getopt hook type, this allows plugins to add new command-line options.
524 * Add --tagbase option to tag plugin.
525 * Add exclude option in setup files, works same as --exclude.
526 * Put categories in rss feeds for tagged items.
527 * Allow preprocessor directives to be expanded in inlined blog pages.

537 * Patch from Enrico that
538 - Adds a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
539 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
540 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
541 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
543 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
544 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
545 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also
547 * Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
548 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
549 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
550 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
551 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
552 different than the source page for inlined pages.
553 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
554 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work
555 properly, with correct links generated.

561 * Run page through any relevant filters when generating a page preview.
562 * Noticed a bug in the wikitext markup plugin -- it made CamelCase links the
563 default throughout the wiki, not only on wikitext pages. Decided to call
564 this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
565 that is independant of wikitext.
566 * Fix CamelCase regexp to not break [[FooBar|BazBar]] WikiLinks.

572 * Improve display of parentlinks and page title of toplevel index page.
573 * Patch from Faidon to use svn --limit when possible for recentchanges,
574 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
575 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
576 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
577 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
578 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
579 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
580 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
581 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
582 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
583 area, and also way slow.
584 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.
586 * Consolidated all decode_utf8 in FormBuilder's fields to make the code more
587 readable and avoid future mistakes. The patch seems to work and for the
588 first time I have a UTF-8 username ;-) (Faidon)
589 * Use form->field consistently, not form->param.

596 ikiwiki (1.8) unstable; urgency=low
598 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
599 for a page not being an orphan.
600 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
601 about changes to rss feeds.
602 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
603 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
604 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
605 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
606 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
607 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
608 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
609 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
610 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
611 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
613 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
614 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
615 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
616 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
617 getting in the way of the preview.
618 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
620 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
621 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
622 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
623 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
625 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
626 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
627 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
628 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
629 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
630 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
631 sanitise them, like any other page type.
632 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
633 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
634 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
635 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
636 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
637 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
638 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
639 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
640 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
641 No code changes involved.
642 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
643 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.
644 * Memoize abs2rel, which is still kinda slow, for another 30% speedup
645 in time to build the doc wiki.

658 ikiwiki (1.6) unstable; urgency=low
660 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
661 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
662 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
663 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
665 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
666 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
667 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
668 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
669 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
670 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
672 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
673 given the readfile fix.
674 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
675 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
677 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
678 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
679 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
680 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
681 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
683 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide
685 * New SVG logo from Recai.

691 * Add --timeformat config option to allow changing how dates are displayed.
692 Note that as a side effect, dates will now be displayed using the local
693 timezone, not as GMT.
694 * More security review.
695 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
696 for some handy stuff like:
697 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
698 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
699 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
700 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
701 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
702 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
703 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
704 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
705 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
707 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
708 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
709 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
710 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
711 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
712 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
713 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
714 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
715 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
716 * Doc updates for git.
717 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
719 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
720 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
721 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

725 ikiwiki (1.4) unstable; urgency=low
727 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
728 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
729 should be always valid again now.
730 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
731 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
732 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
733 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
734 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
735 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
736 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
738 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
739 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
741 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
742 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
743 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
744 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
746 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
747 fix and make it a bit more flexible
748 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
749 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
750 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
751 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
752 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
753 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
755 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
756 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
757 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
759 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
760 relative to the inlining page.)
761 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
762 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
763 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

781 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
783 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
784 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
785 on upgrade to this version.
786 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
787 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
788 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
789 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
790 plugins) during a page render.
791 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
792 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
794 * Added a plugin system.
795 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
796 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
797 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
798 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
799 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
801 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
802 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
803 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
804 different location) already exists.
805 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
806 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
807 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
808 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
809 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
810 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
811 * Smart globlist merging.
812 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
813 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
814 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
815 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
816 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
817 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
818 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
819 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
820 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
822 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
823 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
