Ok.. Turns out this was not a problem with the actual influences calculation or dependency calculation code. Whew! `match_link` -just didn't set the influence correctly when failing. [[fixed|done]] +just didn't set the influence correctly when failing. fixed --[[Joey]] + +--- + +Update: Reopening this because the fix for it rather sucks. + +I made `match_link` return on failure an influence of +type DEPEND_LINKS. So, a tag page that inlines `tagged(foo)` +gets a `depends_simple` built up that contains link dependencies for +*every* page in the wiki. A very bloaty way to represent the dependency! + +Per [[todo/dependency_types]], `link(done)` only needs to list in +`depends_simple` the pages that currently match. If a page is modified +to add the link, the regular dependency calculation code notices that +a new page matches. If a page that had the link is modified to remove it, +the `depends_simple` lets ikiwiki remember that the now non-matching page +matched before. + +Where that fell down was `!link(done)`. A page matching that was not added +to `depends_simple`, because the `link(done)` did not match it. If the page +is modified to add the link, the regular dependency calculation code +didn't notice, since the pagespec no longer matched. + +In this case, `depends_simple` needs to contain all pages +that do *not* match `link(done)`, but before my change, it contained +all pages that *do* match. After my change, it contained all pages. + +---- + +So, seems what is needed is a way for influence info to be manipulated by +the boolean operations that are applied. One way would be to have two +sets of influences be returned, one for successful matches, and one for +failed matches. Normally, these would be the same. For successful +`match_link`, the successful influence would be the page. +For failed `match_link`, the failed influence would be the page. + +Then, when NOTting a `*Reason`, swap the two sets of influences. +When ANDing/ORing, combine the individual sets. Querying the object for +influences should return only the successful influences. + +---- + +Would it be possible to avoid the complication of maintianing two sets of +influence info? + +Well, notice that the influence of `pagespec_match($page, "link(done)")` +is $page. Iff the match succeeds. + +Also, the influence of `pagespec_match($page, "!link(done)")` is +$page. Iff the (overall) match succeeds. + +Does that hold for all cases? If so, the code that populates +`depends_simple` could just test if the pagespec was successful, and +if not, avoid adding $page influences, while still adding any other, +non-$page influences. + +---- + +Hmm, commit f2b3d1341447cbf29189ab490daae418fbe5d02d seems +thuroughly wrong. So, what about influence info for other matches +like `!author(foo)` etc? Currently, none is returned, but it should +be a content influence. (Backlink influence data seems ok.) + +---- + +[[done]] again! diff --git a/doc/todo/auto-create_tag_pages_according_to_a_template.mdwn b/doc/todo/auto-create_tag_pages_according_to_a_template.mdwn index 1e0a910f4..f6d444890 100644 --- a/doc/todo/auto-create_tag_pages_according_to_a_template.mdwn +++ b/doc/todo/auto-create_tag_pages_according_to_a_template.mdwn @@ -239,7 +239,7 @@ wrong direction.
