doc/todo/progressbar_plugin.mdwn



I would like to add next plugin to Ikiwiki. It's progressbar or simply progress.
I'm not sure what plugin name better is, probably that shorter ;) I know that
DokuWiki has similar plugin,
so I think it can be useful also for Ikiwiki users.
Here is proposition of the plugin syntax:
\[[!progress done=50]]

Of course, done argument is integer from 0 to 100.
A here is its HTML result:
<div class="progress">
  <div class="progress-done" style="width: 50%">50%</div>
</div>

Note: I was trying with <span> tags too, but that tag is inline, so I can't
set width property for it.
Default CSS styles for the plugin can be like below:
div.progress {
        border: 1px solid #ddd;
        /* border: 2px solid #ddd; */
        width: 200px;
        background: #fff;
        padding: 2px;
        /* padding: 0px; */
        border: 2px solid #aaa;
        background: #eee;
}
div.progress-done {
        height: 14px;
        background: #ff6600;
        font-size: 12px;
        text-align: center;
        vertical-align: middle;
}

You can use alternative, commented CSS code for div.progress if you dislike
padding around done strip.
Any comments? --[[Paweł|ptecza]]

This looks like a nice idea.  If I could add one further suggestion: Allow your
ratio to be a pair of pagespecs.  Then you could have something like:

\[[!progress totalpages="bugs/* and backlink(milestoneB)" donepages="bugs/* and backlink(milestoneB) and !link(bugs/done)"]]


to have a progress bar marking how many bugs were compete for a
particular milestone.  -- [[Will]]
