ikiwiki 1.27 released with these changes:

  • Work on firming up the plugin interface:
    • Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
    • Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default, like a proper perl module should.
    • Use the other functions at your own risk.
    • This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to export some other things.
  • Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
  • Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'" to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.
  • Anyone with a third-party ikiwiki plugin is strongly encouraged to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symbols from "IkiWiki::".
  • Link debian/changelog and debian/news to NEWS and CHANGELOG.
  • Support hyperestradier version 1.4.2, which adds a new required phraseform setting.
  • If an inlined page has a permalink, link the page title to that.
  • Patch from Recai to use utf8 when reading the setup file, so that utf8 wikinames from there will be used properly.
  • Patch from Recai to kill utf-8 on the wiki name when generating the session cookie.
  • Change ddate plugin to use the DateTime::Calendar::Discordian perl module.
  • Fix a baseurl problem in hyperestradier search results.
  • Add a stub local.css to avoid problems with 404's.
  • Patch from Recai to fix a wide character warning from the search plugin during setup if the wikiname contains utf8.
  • Yet another fix for those poor case-insensative OS X users.
  • pagetemplate hooks are now also called when generating cgi pages.
  • Add a favicon plugin, which simply adds a link tag for an icon to each page (and cgis).
  • Patch from James Westby to deal with the case where you're editing a new page, hit cancel, and need to be redirected to somewhere sane.
  • Various documentation improvements by various wiki users.
  • Support Text::Markdown from CPAN, which has a different interface from the original markdown or the one in Debian.
  • Version the libcgi-session-perl dependency, some features that need the new version are used in some cases (sslcookie).
  • Numerous tla fixes from Clint.
  • Updated ikiwiki.svgz from Recai, includes an icon and is used to generate a multi-resolution favicon.ico.
  • README.Debian: typo Closes: #388110
  • chomp trailing newline at the end of templates read in by the template plugin, to allow use of the template preprocessor directive in whitespace-sensative situations. Closes: #387073
  • Patch from James Westby to make the location of the estseek.cgi script configurable.
  • Add typography (SmartyPants) plugin by Recai.
  • Add --render mode, which can be used to preview an edit at the command line by test rendering a single page.
  • Add a googlecalendar plugin. A bit special-purpose, but it shows one way to to deal with user-supplied content that could cause XSS issues w/o the htmlscrubber, and won't survive the scrubber.
