7 * Allow raw html in the rst plugin.
8 * Add --set-option command line switch.
9 * pagetemplate: don't display template name
10 * Add rel=tag attribute to tag links, supporting that microformat, as well
11 as allowing them to be styled specially. Thanks, NicolasLimare.
12 * Add sessioncgi hook.
13 * Move blog form code out of CGI.pm and into the inline plugin.
14 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
15 * Updated French translation from Cyril Brulebois. Closes: #437181
16 * The toc directive doesn't work well or make sense inside an inlined page.
17 Disable it when the page with the toc is nested inside another page.
18 * Apply a patch from NicolasLimare adding modification date tags to rss and
19 atom feeds, and also changing the publication time for a feed to the
20 newest modiciation time (was newest creation time).
21 * The patch also adds dcterms:creator to rss items that have a known author.
22 * Support pagespec "functions" with no parameters, like included() in the
24 * Add time=mtime option to postsparkline.
25 * Fix --libdir to work at the command line.
26 * Plugins can now be written as standalone external programs, which can
27 be written in any language that can do XML RPC.
28 * Change yet again how unhandled and escaped preprocessor directives are

30 * Fix bug in deletion/move during edit code introduced in 1.44. Need to take
31 the underlaydir into account.
32 * Fix bug when editing file from underlaydir, need to rcs_add it even though
33 a page creation isn't occuring.
34 * Various minor fixes and stylistic improvements suggested by Perl::Critic.
35 * Applied Jeremie Koenig's pluggable editpage buttons patch:
36 - add a title to the editpage form;
37 - pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder_setup
38 hooks, so we can add ours;
39 - relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
41 - de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template
42 (This was needed for compatability with a bug in CGI::FormBuilder
43 3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)
44 * Pass buttons to all other formbuilder_setup hooks too.
45 * Add color parameter to postsparkline. Closes: #438900

56 * Wrap the editpage template in the standard misctemplate, this allows the
57 pagetemplate hook to work for that page.
58 * Above change fixes the favicon plugin to work on edit pages.
59 * Correct some issues with escaped preprocessor directives.
60 * Make the map plugin notice when pages in the map are deleted and update
62 * Add a htmlext config option, this can be used to make ikiwiki generate
63 html files with a different extension.
64 * Fix graphviz plugin to not try to read images as utf-8; they might
65 sometimes contain invalid utf-8 byte sequences. Thanks,

68 in version 1.50 with the addition of %destsources. Thanks, Ethan
70 * Add templatefile hook.
71 * Add pagetemplate plugin, which allows changing the template used for
72 a page. (Not to be confused with the hook of the same name..)

80 * Make the toc plugin use html-compatible anchors. This is necessary since
81 most web sites serve ikiwiki xhtml files as text/html and mozilla browsers
82 get confused. So it's best for ikiwiki to follow the compatability
83 recommendations in appendix C of the XHTML spec. Closes: #432045
84 * Support building on systems that lack asprintf.
85 * mercurial getctime is currently broken, apparently by some change in
86 mercurial version 0.9.4. Turn the failing test case into a TODO test case.
87 * Fix links to alternate stylesheets when usedirs is enabled. Closes: #432556
88 * Use type= not style= in html for alternate stylesheets, which is more
89 correct (but in my testing both epiphany and iceweasel work ok with

102 normalisation of configs etc can do so.

113 ikiwiki (2.2) unstable; urgency=low
115 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
116 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
117 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
118 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
119 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
120 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
121 always be tracked correctly.
122 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
124 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
125 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
126 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
127 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
128 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
129 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
130 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
131 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
132 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
133 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
134 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
135 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
136 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
137 not (if set from the page filename).
138 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
139 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
140 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
141 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.
142 * Correct some issues with display of unhandled preprocessor directives.
143 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth adding support for using globs in link()
145 * Explode some of the more insane regexps.
146 * Add test suite for preprocessor directive parsing.
147 * Fix wrapper generator and untaint code's handling of strings contining
149 * Make the url absolution code for feeds significantly more robust.

158 styled using the stylesheet, rather than by creating signin and prefs

161 * Fix a bug that prevented clearing email or subscriptions.
162 * Improve handling of edits of locked pages by users who are not yet signed

166 * Add all=no option to conditional, can be used to form conditionals that do
167 not need to examine every page in the wiki.
168 * Add the needsbuild hook. Plugins can use this to manipulate which files
169 ikiwiki builds when refreshing the wiki.
172 * Add an account-creation password as a simple anti-spam mechanism. If
173 set in the wiki setup, passwordauth will require the password in
174 order to create an account.
177 * Updated Czech translation from Miroslav Kure.
178 * Apply patch from Paweł Tęcza to avoid using -L in Makefile as it's not
179 available in older finds.
180 * Make all templates have a footer div to ease themeing. Required template
181 and style sheet updates, and unless you're using customised versions,

204 not work on FreeBSD. Thanks to Henrik Brix Andersen for the patch.

208 Especially cleans up the ordering of the admin's preferences form.
209 * Use a fieldset to set off the openid entry from the rest of the login
211 * Enable openid logins by default.

233 * Work around bug #420636 by, if XML::Parser crashes, running the feed
234 content though Encode::decode_utf8.
237 * Change basewiki CSS to not put a border around images used as links.
240 * Move the footer div to enclose tags and links too.
241 * More style sheet updates, remove the hack that used the tags div to create

244 wiki rebuilds are recommended on upgrade to this version.
245 * Avoid .svn directories when installing from svn checkout.
246 * Fix sending of commit mails when new pages are added via the web.
247 * Add user(name) to the PageSpec for commit subscriptions.

252 has changed so they are passed named parameters.
253 * Plugin interface version increased to 2.00 since I don't anticipate any
254 more interface changes before 2.0.
255 * Updated Gujarati translation from Kartik Mistry. Closes: #421198
256 * Make pagespec_match return an object that can be stringified to tell
257 the reason why the match failed or succeeded.

280 * Add a graphviz plugin.
282 * Enhance helponformatting and related documentation to supply more
283 information about available preprocessor directives.
284 * Add myself as a co-maintainer, with Joey's approval.
287 * Add support for PROFILE=1 to the Makefile, this turns on profiling of the
288 wiki build using Devel::Profiler (Dprof can't handle ikiwiki).
289 * Add a new %destsources hash, which maps between a destination file and
290 the source page used to create it, ie it's the reverse of %renderedfiles.

318 ikiwiki (1.49) unstable; urgency=low
321 * Add --post-commit option, which allows for the case of a split web server
322 and RCS server (or a push mirror). With this the RCS server can have a
323 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
324 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
325 * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.
326 * Add a templates page to the basewiki. It will automatically list all
327 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.

333 the numbacklinks setting.

335 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
336 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
337 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.

372 * Fix link() PageSpecs to not just look at the raw link text, but at where
373 that given link points based on the page doing the linking. Note that this
374 could make such PageSpecs match different things than before, if you
375 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.

381 that shouldn't appear in a printout: Search box, actions bar,
382 blog post form, tags, backlinks, and feed buttons.
383 * Finally fixed the longstanding inline removal bug.

479 This lets ikiwiki not build depend on perlmagic.
480 * Detect old versions of xgettext and avoid using them.

483 * Elegant patch from Ethan to clean up the display of page names in the
484 dropdown when creating a new page.
485 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
486 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
487 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
488 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook
489 (except for commit mails). The CGI then takes care of the updates the

1031 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
1033 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
1034 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
1035 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
1036 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
1037 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
1038 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
1039 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
1040 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
1041 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
1042 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
1043 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
1044 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
1045 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
1046 from a different directory.
1047 * Generalised preprocesser loop protection code.
1048 * Patch from James Westby to allow a description to be set for rss feeds.
1049 * Patch from James Westby to add a template for the search form.
1050 * Added a ddate plugin.
1051 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
1052 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
1053 * Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
1054 to the preferences page.
1055 * Add toc (table of contents) plugin.
1056 * Change htmlize, format, and sanitize hooks to use named parameters.
1057 * Patch from James Westby to add an actions option to inline; this
1058 adds Edit and Discussion links at the end of blog entries.
1059 * Due to some css changes, you'll want to rebuild your wiki on upgrade
1060 to this version. Will be handled automatically by the deb.

1068 * If a page links to itself, mark up the link text in a span with
1069 class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
1070 defined for that though.
1071 * Call filter hooks on inlined page content.

1073 * Clean up yes/no parameter parsing in inline plugin.
1074 * Implemented better cycle detection in the inline plugin; nested inlines

1110 * The last release accidentially installed ikiwiki as ikiwiki.pl, now fixed.
1112 * Man page format fixups.
1113 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
1114 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
1115 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
1116 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
1117 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
1118 forcing the link to lowercase.
1119 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
1120 with a given name exists.
1121 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
1122 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
1123 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.

1134 templates but can be useful for things like making comma-delimited lists
1135 of tags or what have you.
1136 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
1137 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on

1151 ikiwiki (1.16) unstable; urgency=low
1153 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
1154 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
1155 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
1156 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
1157 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
1158 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
1160 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
1161 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
1162 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
1163 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
1164 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
1166 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
1167 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
1168 matter what the input.

1170 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
1171 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks

1204 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
1205 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.

1217 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
1218 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
1220 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
1221 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1222 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1223 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1224 to perl code that does the matching.
1225 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
1226 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
1227 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.

1329 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
1330 for a page not being an orphan.
1331 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1332 about changes to rss feeds.
1333 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1334 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1335 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1336 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1337 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1338 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1339 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.

1341 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1342 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon

1345 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
1346 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
1347 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
1348 getting in the way of the preview.

1351 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1352 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1353 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1354 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1356 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1357 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1358 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1359 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1360 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1361 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1362 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1363 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1364 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1365 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1366 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1367 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1368 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1369 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1370 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1371 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1372 No code changes involved.
1373 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
1374 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

1391 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1392 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1393 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1394 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1396 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1397 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1398 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1399 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1400 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1401 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1403 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1404 given the readfile fix.
1405 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1406 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1408 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1409 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1410 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1411 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1412 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1414 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

1425 * More security review.
1426 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1427 for some handy stuff like:
1428 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1429 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1430 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1431 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1432 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1433 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1434 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1435 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1436 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1438 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1439 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1440 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1441 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1442 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
1443 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
1444 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
1445 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
1446 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.

1459 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
1460 should be always valid again now.

1462 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.

1464 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
1465 around with adding new stuff to the page template.

1467 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do

1470 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
1472 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
1473 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
1474 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
1475 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
1477 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1478 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1479 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1480 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1481 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1482 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1483 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1484 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1486 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1487 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1488 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1490 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1491 relative to the inlining page.)
1492 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
1493 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
1494 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

1506 * Remove dups from the brokenlinks list.
1507 * Add libc6-dev to dependencies, needed to build wrappers.
1508 * Install wikilist in correct location. Closes: #367371

1514 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
1515 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
1516 on upgrade to this version.
1517 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
1518 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
1519 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
1520 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
1521 plugins) during a page render.
1522 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
1523 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
1525 * Added a plugin system.
1526 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
1527 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
1528 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
1529 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
1530 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
1532 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
1533 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
1534 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
1535 different location) already exists.
1536 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
1537 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
1538 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
1539 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
1540 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
1541 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
1542 * Smart globlist merging.
1543 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
1544 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
1545 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
1546 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
1547 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
1548 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
1549 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
1550 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
1551 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
1553 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
1554 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
1555 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
1557 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
1558 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
1559 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
1560 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
1561 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
1562 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
