Attachments can be uploaded and managed as +part of the interface for editing a page. + +Warning: Do not enable this plugin on publically editable wikis, unless you +take care to lock down the types and sizes of files that can be uploaded. +Bear in mind that if you let anyone upload a particular kind of file +("*.mp3" files, say), then someone can abuse your wiki in at least three ways: + +1. By uploading many mp3 files, wasting your disk space. +2. By uploading mp3 files that attempt to exploit security holes + in web browsers or other players. +3. By uploading files that claim to be mp3 files, but are really some + other kind of file. Some web browsers may display a `foo.mp3` that + contains html as a web page; including running any malicious javascript + embedded in that page. + +To provide a way to combat these abuses, the wiki admin can specify a +[[ikiwiki/PageSpec]] on their preferences page, to control what types of +attachments can be uploaded, and by whom. The regular [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]] +syntax is expanded with additional tests. + +For example, to limit arbitrary files to 50 kilobytes, but allow +larger mp3 files to be uploaded by joey, a test like this could be +used: + + (user(joey) and *.mp3 and maxsize(15mb)) or (!ispage() and maxsize(50kb)) + +The following additional tests are available: + +* maxsize(size) + + Tests whether the attachment is no larger than the specified size. + The size defaults to being in bytes, but "kb", "mb", "gb" etc can be + used to specify the units. + +* minsize(size) + + Tests whether the attachment is no smaller than the specified size. + +* ispage() + + Tests whether the attachment will be treated by ikiwiki as a wiki page. + (Ie, if it has an extension of ".mdwn", or of any other enabled page + format). + + So, if you don't want to allow wiki pages to be uploaded as attachments, + use `!ispage()` ; if you only want to allow wiki pages to be uploaded + as attachments, use `ispage()`. + +* user(username) + + Tests whether the attachment is being uploaded by a user with the + specified username. If openid is enabled, an openid can also be put here. + +* ip(address) + + Tests whether the attacment is being uploaded from the specified IP + address. diff --git a/doc/plugins/contrib/attach/discussion.mdwn b/doc/plugins/contrib/attach/discussion.mdwn new file mode 100644 index 000000000..803b7dcdb --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/plugins/contrib/attach/discussion.mdwn @@ -0,0 +1,18 @@ +I found this posted to todo list, moved here: --[[Joey]] + +> First pass at an attachments plugin.
