summary

Extend inlining to handle raw files (files with unrecognized extensions).

Also raise an error in IkiWiki::pagetype($file) if $file is blank, which avoids trying to do much with missing files, etc.

I'm using the new code in my blog.

usage

\[[!inline pagenames="somefile.txt" template="raw" feeds="no"]]

But inline already supports raw files in two ways:

  • setting raw=yes will cause a page to be inlined raw without using any template, as if it were part of the page at the location of the inline
  • otherwise, the file becomes an enclosure in the rss feed, for use with podcasting.

So I don't see the point of your patch. Although since your text editor seems to like to make lots of whitespace changes, it's possible I missed something in the large quantity of noise introduced by it. --[[Joey]]
