MoinMoin Version History ======================== Please completely read CHANGES text until you reach the version you were using until now. Otherwise you might miss some important upgrading and configuration hints. Starting with 1.5.3, update installation hints are marked with HINT. They assume you are upgrading from the last release version before (e.g. from 1.5.2 to 1.5.3). This release has known bugs (see MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs), but we think it is already better than the previous stable release. Our release policy is not trying to make a "perfect release" (as that release might NEVER get released), but to make progress and don't delay releases too much. Known main issues: * The GUI WYSIWYG editor has still some issues and limitations. If you can't live with those, you can simply switch it off by using: editor_force = True editor_default = 'text' # internal default, just for completeness * TWikiDraw may have some issues - we need some JAVA guy caring for it! * "Backup" and especially "Restore" action (both new in 1.5) have some issues, so please DON'T USE THEM except if you want to help debugging and improving it and after having made a backup with some other, proven method. USE BOTH ON YOUR OWN RISK! Version 1.5.8: New features: * Added timing.log to help performance debugging. Use cfg.log_timing = True to update /timing.log (default is False, meaning no logging). Example log entries: Timestamp PID Timing Flag action URL ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20070512 184401 22690 vvv None moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/RssFeeds 20070512 184401 22690 0.267s - show moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/RssFeeds Timestamp: YYYYMMDD HHMMSS (UTC) PID: the process ID of the moin process Timing: when action starts, it will be "vvv" when it ends, it logs the total time it needed for execution Flag (some are only logged at end of action): + Page exists - Page does not exist B user agent was recognized as bot / spider !x! Action took rather long (the higher the x, the longer it took - this makes it easy to grep for problematic stuff). Action: action name (None is when no action was specified, moin assumes "show" for that case) URL: the requested URL For more information about tuning your moin setup, see: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/PerformanceTuning * Added support for ircs, webcal, xmpp, ed2k and rootz protocols - we moved all protocols to config.url_schemas, so this is not empty any more. It is possible to use these protocols now on wiki pages and in the navi_bar. We just generate the URLs, it is up to your browser what it does when clicking on those links. * cfg.traceback_show (default: 1) can be used to disable showing tracebacks. cfg.traceback_log_dir (default: None) can be used to set a directory that is used to dump traceback files to. Your users will get a notice to which (random) file in that directory the traceback was been written. NOTE: while you can feel free to set traceback_show = 0 and traceback_log_dir = None, we will also feel free to reject bug reports when you (or your site's users) don't give us enough information (like a traceback file) to debug the problem. If you set traceback_show = 0, we recommend pointing traceback_log_dir to a directory with reasonable free space and putting a page onto your wiki that describes who has to get contacted (usually the wiki server admin) in case a traceback happens. The admin can then locate the traceback file and submit it to moin development, if the bug is not already known (see MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs). Of course we will also need all the other details of a bug report, not only the traceback file. Other changes: * Updated spider agents list. * Reduce bot/spider cpu usage for SystemInfo, OrphanedPages, WantedPages, PageHits, PageSize, WordIndex macros (we just return nothing for bots). Bugfixes: * XSS fixes, see http://secunia.com/advisories/24138/ (item 1 and 2). * ACL security fixes: * MonthCalendar respects ACLs of day pages now. * Check the ACL for the rst markup include directive. * Fixed cleaning of edit comments (control chars in there could damage edit-log). * Fixed in-process caching of antispam patterns (didn't update the cache for multi-process, persistent servers). * Correct encoding/decoding for surge-log data, fixes leftover surge-logXXXXXXX.tmp files in data/cache/surgeprotect. * Fixed mode of cache files (mkstemp creates them with 0600 mode). * Symbolic entities with numbers (like ²) did not work, fixed. * We open data/error.log earlier now and we also use it for FastCGI. * Fixed unicode cfg.page_group_regex. * Fixed moin.spec to use english date format. * GUI converter: fixed conversion of relative wiki links. * Fixed NewPage macro button label to not be formatted as wiki text. Version 1.5.7: New features: * added url_prefix_local which is used for stuff that must be loaded from same site as the wiki engine (e.g. FCKeditor GUI editor applet), while url_prefix can be a remote server serving the static files (css/img). If not set (or set to None), url_prefix_local will default to the value of url_prefix. * We save some CPU and disk I/O by having EditTemplates and LikePages macro (both used on MissingPage) check whether the requesting entity was identified as a spider (e.g. search engine bot) and do nothing in that case. Normal users won't see any difference. * For AttachFile, you can now choose to overwrite existing files of same name (nice for updating files). Bugfixes: * XSS Fixes: * fixed unescaped page info display. * fixed unescaped page name display in AttachFile, RenamePage and LocalSiteMap actions * WantedPages listed existing pages that are not readable for the user, but are linked from pages that ARE readable for the user (so this is NOT a privacy/security issue). We now don't list those pages any more as it is pointless/confusing, the user can't read or edit there anyway. * MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs/TableOfContentsUsesNonExistingIncludeLinks * MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs/ActionsExcludedTriggerError * GUI editor/converter: * ignore // elements * support within blockquote * Remove generated=... attribute from pagelink html output (this attr is for internal use only). w3c validator is now happier again. * Fixed css class "userpref" (not: "userprefs") of the Login form. * Fixed the version number check in the xslt parser for 4suite >= 1.0. * We reset the umask to the wanted value every request. This should fix wrong file modes when used with Twisted (twistd uses a hardcoded 0077 umask in daemonize()). * Avoid trouble when saving pages with antispam function when MoinMaster wiki is having troubles (catch xmlrpc Fault). Other changes: * Standalone server does not do reverse DNS lookups any more (this is a standard feature of BaseHTTPServer stdlib module, but we override this now and just print the IP). * We moved the IE hacks to theme/css/msie.css that gets included after all other css files (but before the user css file) using a conditional comment with "if IE", so it gets only loaded for MSIE (no matter which version). The file has some standard css inside (evaluated on all MSIE versions) and some * html hacks that only IE < 7 will read. HINT: if you use custom themes, you want to update them in the same way. * Improved ldap auth: * cfg.ldap_name_attribute was removed because of new cfg.ldap_filter. If you had ldap_name_attribute = 'sAMAccountName' before, just use ldap_filter = '(sAMAccountName=%(username)s)' now. * New cfg.ldap_filter used for the ldap filter string used in the ldap search instead of the rather limited, partly hardcoded filter we used before. This is much more flexible: ldap_filter = '(sAMAccountName=%(username)s)' You can also do more complex filtering expressions like: '(&(cn=%(username)s)(memberOf=CN=WikiUsers,OU=Groups,DC=example,DC=org))' * Added some processing to filter out result entries with dn == None. * We set REFERRALS option to 0 before initializing the ldap server connection (this seems to be needed for Active Directory servers). * We support self-signed ssl certs for ldaps - completely untested. * New cfg.ldap_surname_attribute (usually 'sn'), was hardcoded before. * New cfg.ldap_givenname_attribute (usually 'givenName'), hardcoded before. * New cfg.ldap_aliasname_attribute (usually 'displayName') - if this attribute is not there or empty (in the results of the ldap lookup for the user), we just make up the aliasname from surname and givenname attribute. * We only request the attributes we need from ldap (was: all attrs). * We deny user login (and break out of auth chain) for the following cases: * if a user is not found by ldap lookup * if we find more than one matching entry * if the password is empty or incorrect * if some exception happens * Please note that there is an updated ldap sample config in directory wiki/config/more_samples/. * Added experimental LDAP SSL/TLS support (untested, please help testing), see also the sample config. * Work around a IE7 rendering problem with long pages getting more and more narrow. We just applied the same "fix" as we used for IE6, using "display: none" for span.anchor for IE browsers. * RSS feed related: * We used to emit a tag for the action=rss_rc RSS feed on any page. This was changed, we now emit that link only on RecentChanges and the current user's language translation of RecentChanges. This was changed because Google Toolbar requests the RSS feed linked by such a link tag every time it sees one. Thus, if you used the wiki normally, it requested the RSS feed every few seconds and caused problems due to surge protection kicking in because of that. * HINT for custom theme users: if your theme code calls rsslink(), then you need to change that to rsslink(d) for 1.5.7+. Version 1.5.6: A general security notice: Check your Python version, there was a buffer overflow issue in Python recently! Details: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/PythonUnicodeEscapeBug Bugfixes: * Fix AttributeError traceback with Standalone server (if_modified_since) * Fix AttachFile "304 not modified" and redirect status code for Twisted * http auth: we now decode username and password to unicode (using config.charset == utf-8). Same for SSL client cert auth and CN. * Avoid infinite recursion in Page.parsePageLinks. * Fixed standalone server failing to shutdown if interface == "". * Now MoinMoin does not think anymore that every page links to various user homepages. * Made the irssi parser more tolerant (Thanks to "TheAnarcat"). * Now multiple formatters can be used per request, the send_page code was not reentrant to this regard. Fixes "empty" search results. * Fixed problem with "=" in ImageLink macro links. * Not a moin bug, but a silly stdlib os.tempnam function made trouble to some people because it lets you override the path given in the code by setting the environment variable TMP(DIR). We now use a different function to avoid renaming trouble when TMP(DIR) points to a different file system. * Fixed antispam update on every save (Thanks to "TheAnarcat"). * GUI converter: don't throw away rowclass for tables. * GUI editor formatter: allow height for table cells. * GUI editor formatter: comment texts are output using the formatter now. New features: * Mail notifications contain a link to the diff action so the user can see the coloured difference more easily. Thanks to Tobias Polzin. * FeatureRequests/MoveAttachments - you can move attachments from one page to another (and also rename the attachment at the same time). Thanks to Reimar Bauer. * Added support for linking to attachment: and inline: URLs with ImageLink. * Added UNIX socket support for FastCGI, just set the port to some (socket) filename. Details see: MoinMoin:FeatureRequests/FastCgiUnixSocket * [[Attachlist(pagename,mimetype)]] lists attachments of pagename (default: current page) with optional mimetype restriction (default: all). Thanks to Reimar Bauer. Other changes: * Minor performance improvements (might be noticeable if you have many custom navi_bar entries and high server load). * Avoid usage of no-cache because it breaks attachment download on IE6. This is a IE bug, not a moin bug. * Added XHTML to the unsafe list. * Changed the rst parser to be compatible to the new docutils interface for directives. * Updated EmbedObject macro. Version 1.5.5a: Bugfixes: * fixed ticket creation to only use constant values Version 1.5.5: HINT: read docs/README.migration. HINT: there was NO change in the underlay/ pages since 1.5.4. HINT: If you experience problems with the reStructured Text (rst) parser, please downgrade docutils to "0.4" because there were major interface breaking API refactorings on the docutils trunk. Bugfixes: * GUI editor fixes: * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/GuiEditorModifiesInterwikiPreferred. * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/TableAlignmentProbsWithGUI. * Not a moin bug, but it severely annoyed IE users and also was less comfortable for users of other browser: since about 1.5.4, we served attachments with Content-Disposition: attachment - so that the user has to save them to disk. This was to fix a possible XSS attack using attached HTML files with Javascript inside for stealing your moin cookie or doing other nasty things. We improved this by using different behaviour depending on the potential danger the attached file has when served inline: The config option contains a few mimetypes that are known to be inherently unsafe to this regard. If you know more dangerous stuff, please just add the mimetypes there to protect your users and file a bug report telling us what we missed. * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/ReStructuredTextRelativeLinksBroken, thanks to Stefan Merten. * Make tickets used for some actions more safe. New features: * edit_ticketing [True] - we protect page save by a ticket (same stuff we already use for DeletePage and RenamePage action). NOTE: If you don't use your browser for editing, but some tool like "editmoin" or "MoinMoin plugin for jEdit", you'll need an update of them supporting the ticket. Alternatively, you can use edit_ticketing = False setting - this is not recommended for internet wikis as it will make spamming them easier. * If we detect some spammer, we kick him out by triggering surge protection (if surge protection is not disabled). Version 1.5.5rc1: Bugfixes: * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/XmlRpcBrokenForFastCgi - thanks to Johannes Berg. * Fixed gui editor converter confusing of `` and {{{}}} markup. * Fixed emission of HTTP headers (esp. Vary: Cache-Control:). * Fixed a bad crash that happens (on ANY page!) when you put a *Dict page's name as a member into a *Group page. * Fix MyPages action title to use an unformatted string. * Fix double quoted-printable encoding in generated emails (note: this is not a moin bug - this just works around bugs in python stdlib). * Fix mode of drawing files (use config.umask). * Fix trouble with /?action= urls by dropping getPageNameFromQueryString code. * Fixed sre unpickle issues seen on some machines by avoiding to pickle the regex. * Fix Clock code, add more timers. * Worked around FastCGI problem on Lighttpd: empty lines in the error log. * Fix (add) locking for caching's .remove() call, small fixes to lock code. * Print error message when --target-dir=path is missing from moin export dump command. New features: * Added support for "304 not modified" response header for AttachFile get and rss_rc actions - faster, less traffic, less load. * Limit rss with full diffs to 5 items. * Allow surge_action_limits = None to disable surge protection. * moin.fcg improved - if you use FastCGI, you must use the new file: * can self-terminate after some number of requests (default: -1, this means "unlimited lifetime") * the count of created threads is limited now (default: 5), you can use 1 to use non-threaded operation. * configurable socket.listen() backlog (default: 5) * Added indonesian i18n (id). * Some measures against spammers trying to brute force their spam into moin. * EmbedObject macro: added mov, mpg and midi support * moin ... export dump --target-dir=PATH --page=PAGENAME_REGEX You must specify --target-dir (where dump will write the html files to) and you may specify --page and either a page name or a regex used to match all pages you want to export. Default is to export all pages. Other changes: * Tuning: * more efficient locking code on POSIX platforms, we do much less I/O for locking now * removed most chmod calls in favour of a single os.umask call * Improved Python 2.5 compatibility. Note: if you think that MoinMoin is using too much RAM, you might want to look at Python 2.5 because of its improved memory management. * Throw away SAVE comments longer than 200 chars (you can't enter those by the user interface, so only spammer using automatic POSTs do them). * Updated spider user agent list. * BadContent and LocalBadContent now get noindex,nofollow robots header, same as POSTs. * Standalone opens it logfile unbuffered from now on, thanks to Carsten Grohmann. * Avoid trouble when request.write() data contains None, just skip it - thanks to Juergen Hermann. * Instead of showing a ConfigurationError, moin now emits "404 Not found" http headers and a hint about what could be wrong. This won't fill up your logs just because of typos and spiders still trying old URLs. Version 1.5.4: Bugfixes: * GUI editor / converter: * Fixed vanishing strike markup after gui editor usage. * Fixed deletion of empty Interwiki links ([wiki:MoinMaster: mm entry page]). * Fixed MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs/GuiEditorDeletesNewBulletText. * Fixed MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs/HtmlTextConvertTables. * Hopefully fixed MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs/text_html_text_x_moin. * cfg.editor_quickhelp was not parsed with the wiki parser when customized or when string was missing from translation. * Allow "-" in usernames (fixes "Invalid user name" msg). * Fixed MonthCalendar macro for non-ASCII pagenames (thanks to Jonas Smedegaard). * Fixed the forgotten password email login URL and also properly encode the email body. Thanks to Robin Dunn for the patch. * Remove 'search' and 'google' from bot user agent list and add some more specific terms. * Applied a patch by Matthew Gilbert for increased compatiblity with latest docutils. * Fixed show_version to show it in the same way as SystemInfo. * Fixed mod_python attachment upload bug (thanks to Nick Phillips). * Updated ImageLink macro. New Features: * Included EmbedObject macro for embedding shockwave flash, mp3, visio, ... * cfg.log_reverse_dns_lookups [default: True] - you can set this to False if rev. dns lookups are broken in your network (leading to long delays on page saves). With False, edit-log will only contain IP, not hostname. * ?action=sitemap emits a google sitemap (XML), listing all your wiki pages and the wiki root URL. Page Priority / Frequency / Last modification -------------------------------------------------------------------- / 1.0 / hourly / cfg.page_front_page 1.0 / hourly / page last edit TitleIndex,RecentChanges 0.9 / hourly / content pages 0.5 / daily / page last edit system/help pages 0.1 / yearly / page last edit * Added thread_monitor debugging aid. It can be activated using: from MoinMoin.util import thread_monitor; thread_monitor.activate_hook() and then triggered by requesting URL ...?action=thread_monitor - please be aware that monitoring threads has a big performance impact on its own, so you only want to temporarily enable this for debugging. By default, it dumps its output to the data_dir as tm_.log, you can change this at bottom of action/thread_monitor.py if you want to see output in your browser. * Updated translations: i18n strings, system and help pages. The system and help pages already contain some descriptions of moin 1.6 features. It was not planned to update s/h pages with 1.5.4, but some translators did lots of changes there and also in the *.po files, thus we had to include them to avoid inconsistencies. If a feature is marked with "1.6", it will NOT be available in the 1.5.4 release. Other Changes: * Increased maxlength of some input fields from 80 to 200. * Performance improvement: removed Twisted request object reverse dns lookup. * Added a (less broken) MoinMoin.support.difflib, details see there. Developer notes: * We switched to Mercurial SCM, see here for more infos: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinDev/MercurialGuide Version 1.5.3: New Features: * Added CSS classes for TableOfContents macro. Bug Fixes: * GUI editor / GUI editor converter: * Fixed missing GUI editor link in edit bar. * Fixed table/row/cell style spaces. * Changed

generation for macros. * Fixed handling of subpages. * Fixed processing of complex list elements (thanks to Craig Markwardt). * Fixed processing of html \n (thanks to Craig Markwardt). * Fixed joining of comment lines with text below them. * Fixed table height attribute crash. * Fixed sslclientcert auth. * Added some missing files to i18n processing, translatable strings more complete now. * Change

generation from self-closing (

) to auto-closing (only emit

, let browser find place for

). * Fix eating of newline before tables. * Fixed incorrect login hint for not logged-in users trying a disallowed action. * Fixed nasty missing or double formatter bug (mostly happening when user has enabled questionmarks for nonexisting pages). Other Changes: * We catch and ignore html to wiki conversion errors in case of hitting the cancel button, so you can get out of the error screen. Version 1.5.3-rc2: New Features: * Modified SystemInfo macro to give human readable units and disk usage * cfg.editor_quickhelp makes the quick help below the editor configurable (at least as far as the default_markup is concerned). If set to None, it doesn't display any quickhelp. Thanks to Seth Falcon for the patch. Bugfixes: * Fixed double class attribute for nonexistent links * Fixed double with qm_noexist option * Fixed table xxx="yyy" style attribute parsing * If not (editor_force and editor_default == 'text') then display GUI mode switch button (this is only a partial fix, but enough to deny the GUI mode to your users completely) * Fixed XSS issue which could lead to cookie theft etc. * Fixed definition list "same level" indenting. * Fixed pagename in log for PackagePages action. * Made

self-closing and line-anchors more well-behaved, thanks to Martin Wilck for the patch. I didn't apply the

    patch, because this is no real problem, just a problem of a bad standard. * Fixed gui editor *bgcolor crash. * Support/Fix tableclass attr with gui editor. Other changes: * Moved back UserPreferences action link from menu to top of page (renaming it to "Preferences"), added "Cancel" button to make it possible to return to the previous page without saving preferences. * Removed formatter.url "attrs" keyword arg that took premade html, we use separate kw args per attribute now. * Moved broken tests to MoinMoin/_tests/broken (= disabling them). All "active" tests run ok now. If you want to compare, I included the output of this test run: $ make test >tests/make_test.out Version 1.5.3-rc1: New features: * HINT: please read README.migration * Login and Logout are actions now, therefore you stay on the page where you were before. * UserPreferences is also an action now and moved from top border (in modern theme) to the "more actions" dropdown menu. You also stay on the same page. * There is also a [[Login]] macro now. You can put it on any page you want and if the user is not logged in, it renders the login form. If the user is logged in, it doesn't render anything. * We check cfg.superuser to be a list of user names (as documented) and deny superuser access if it is not. This avoids security issues by wrong configuration. * auth methods changed: HINT: if you wrote own auth methods, please change them as you see in MoinMoin/auth.py and test them again before relying on them. * now get a user_obj kw argument that is either a user object returned from a previous auth method or None (if no user has been made up yet). The auth method should either return a user object (if it has determined one) or what it got as user_obj (being "passive") or None (if it wants to "veto" some user even if a previous method already has made up some user object). * return value of continue_flag is now True in most cases (except if it wants to "veto" and abort). * moin_cookie auth method now logs out a user by deleting the cookie and setting user_obj.valid = 0. This makes it possible to still get the user's name in subsequent auth method calls within the same request. * added ldap_login and smb_mount auth methods, see MoinMoin/auth.py and wiki/config/more_samples/ldap_smb_farmconfig.py * MonthCalendar now takes an additional argument for specifying a template to use to directly invoke the page editor when clicking on non-existing day pages. * Added ImageLink macro. Thanks to Jeff Kunce, Marcin Zalewski, Reimar Bauer and Chong-Dae Park for working on it. * Lupy stuff (still experimental, partly broken and disabled by default): * Attachment search using lupy (lupy_search = 1 in your config) Title search will also search attachment filenames. Full text search will also search attachment contents. * Indexing filter plugins, see MoinMoin:FiltersForIndexing Some filters depend on external converters that might not be available for any platform (see Depends: line in filter plugin). Feel free to contribute more filter plugins, especially if you wrote some nice platform independant filter in Python for some popular file format! Filters implemented so far (depending on): MS Word, RTF, MS Excel (antiword, catdoc) PDF (pdftotext) OpenOffice.org XML based data formats (-) XML, HTML (-) text/* (-) JPEG's EXIF data (-) Binary generic (-) * As you might know, Lupy is "retired" (that means it isn't developped by its authors any more). We are currently evaluating Xapian as new indexing search engine in moin. If we succeed, we will replace Lupy stuff by some Xapian interface code in moin. But: the filters will likely stay, as we also need them with Xapian. * A new MoinMoin script interface was introduced: Syntax: moin [options] [options] For example: moin --config-dir=/my/cfgdir --wiki-url=wiki.example.org/ \ export dump --page=WikiSandBox This will call the "moin" script, which will use the --config-dir and --wiki-url options to initialize, then it will go to MoinMoin.script module, import the export.dump module from there and run it, providing the additional --page value to it. The old scripts that have not been migrated to this new interface can still be found in MoinMoin/script/old/ - including the old migration scripts. * moin ... account create --name=JoeDoe --email=joe@doe.org * moin ... account disable --name=JoeDoe * moin ... acount check <-- this is what usercheck script was before * moin ... maint cleancache <-- this is what cachecleaner script was * moin ... maint cleanpage <-- this is what pagescleaner script was Bugfixes: * cookie_lifetime didn't work comfortable for low values. The cookie was created once on login and never updated afterwards. So you got logged out cookie_lifetime hours later, no matter whether you were active at that time or not. This has been changed, we update the cookie expiry now on every request, so it will expire cookie_lifetime after your last request (not after login). * Fixed logout problems when using cfg.cookie_path. * Fixed cookie_path for root url wikis. * Lupy search now behaves a bit less funky. Still no guarantees... * We lowered the twisted server timeout to 2 minutes now (was: 10) because it just used up too many files (open TCP connections until it timeouts) on our farm. * The algorithm used for processing the farmconfig.wikis list was changed to work for big farms (>= 50 wikis), too. This works around the python "re" module limitation of having a maximum of 100 named groups in a RE. * Fixed a TypeError which occurred for formatters that dislike None values. (cf. http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/PythonErrorEditingFrontPage) * Fixed GUI editor converter error for https:... image URLs. * ThemeBase (use by modern/rightsidebar): removed duplicate AttachFile from actions menu (we already have it in editbar). * Speedup group/dicts scanning for persistent servers. * Implemented HEAD requests for standalone server, this should fix some of the strange effects happening when using "Save as" on attachments. * Not a moin bug, but rather a workaround for non-standard non-ASCII DNS hostnames: we just use the IP instead of crashing now. * Spurious cyclic usage error in i18n fixed. * Fixed antispam for python 2.5a xmlrpclib. * I18n for linenumber toggle in listings. * All action menu entries are translatable now. Other: * Added css classes for the rst admonitions. Thanks to TiagoMacambira! Version 1.5.2: New features: * Added FullSearchCached macro which is statically cached. Use it if you do not depend on fresh search results but prefer raw speed. * Added surge protection, see HelpOnConfiguration/SurgeProtection. * Allow hex and symbolic entities. * If there is a user with empty password, we just generate a random one when he requests it getting sent by mail. Thanks to Reimar Bauer. * The superuser now can switch to another user using UserPreferences - nice to help your users when they forgot their password or need other help. You need to logout/relogin to use your own userid afterwards. This function only works correctly if you use moin_cookie authentication. Thanks to Reimar Bauer. * Add new markup for bulletless lists: just use a "." instead of "*". Other changes: * Added "voyager" to bot useragent list. * Added locking for caching subsystem. * Deron Meranda's formatter API cleanup. * Added div and span to formatter API. * Removed old unfinished form and export code. * updated i18n Fixes: * Fixed table attribute parsing. * Fixed cookie handling wrt properties adherance. * The new "." list markup makes it possible to have a bulletless list with elements on the same level. Before this change and only using indentation with blanks, that would get merged into a single paragraph. * It is possible now to have multiple paragraphs in the same list element, just leave an empty line in between the paragraphs. * Fixed GAP processing for ordered lists. * Fix text_gedit formatter's invalid list nesting. * Fixed hr crash in blockquote (but needs more work). * Fixed FootNote's formatter usage. * Fixed rst's headline levels. * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/WikiParserThinksItIsInsidePreWhenItIsNot * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/ListItemGeneratedOutsideList * Fixed that macros were followed by a wrong

    . * Added

    to the block elements in the text_html formatter, so it does not close it erratically when you close a inner

    . * GUI editor converter now also accept http: urls without // (relative or same server urls). * Fixed the DocBook parser in cases where the pagename was non-ascii. * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/ProcessInlineDontSupportUlElement Version 1.5.1: Fixes: * Fixed rst parser docutils version check * Repaired attachment unzipping feature. * Fixed the AddRevision command of the PackageInstaller. * improved the migration scripts (used to migrate pre-1.3 wikis to 1.3+): * do not crash on empty lines in event log * fix edit log format for very old moin data (like 0.11) * workaround for an ugly win32 operating system bug leading to wiki text file mtime not matching edit logs timestamp values if there was some timezone change since last edit (e.g. a daylight saving tz switch), but differing 3600s. This affected pre-1.3 moin wiki servers running on win32 OS only. We now try to correct those inconsistencies in mig05 by fuzzy matching. * fixed bracketed link scheme icon (css class) * we included a modified copy of Python 2.4.2's copy.py as some previous python versions seem to have problems (2.3.x, x < 5 and also 2.4[.0]), see: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/DeepCopyError Our own copy.py was slightly modified to run on 2.3.x and 2.4.x. * Fixed the problem of not being able to change the date/time format back to "Default" (UserPreferences). * We generate the GUI editor footer now the same way as the text editor footer. * Include a CSS workaround for yet another IE bug, see: MoinMoinBugs:InternetExplorerPeekABooBugInRightSideBar * classic theme: added GUI editor link * classic theme: added pagename header to editor screen * the "mail enabled" check now also checks whether mail_from is set Other changes: * Updated FCKeditor to current CVS (2006-01-08 == 2.2+) * Split up show_hosts into show_hosts and show_names * attachment:file%20with%20spaces.txt in attachment list * added support for file:// in GUI editor link dialogue, see also: MoinMoin:FileLinks * cfg.mail_smarthost now supports "server:port" syntax, the default port is 25, of course. * removed unused kwargs showpage/editable/form from wikiutil.send_footer * updated i18n (translation texts, additional languages) * removed interwiki:pagename from print view's top of page, added it to the "lasted edited" line at bottom right. Version 1.5.0: HINT: 1.5.0 uses the same data/pages format as 1.3.x. The only thing you want to check is whether the 1.5.x version you are upgrading to has NEW mig scripts compared to the version you are running now (e.g. in 1.3.5 we added some scripts that fixed some small problems). See the MoinMoin/scripts/migration/ directory. You must run every mig script in sequence and only ONCE ever. Fixes: * Fix table attributes parsing. Thanks to Reimar Bauer. * Fixed a few bugs in the reStructured text parser. Note that you need to install docutils 0.3.10 or newer (snapshot from December 2005 or newer) to make reStructuring parsing work: * Case preservation for anonymous links * MoinMoin links get the appropriate CSS class * Images do not get special CSS markup anymore Thanks to Matthew Gilbert. * Fixed a bug in the WSGI code which led to incorrect exception handling. * Removed all nationality flags. They used to be used for indicating some specific language (NOT nationality) and this was simply wrong and a bad idea. * Fixed some header rendering issues (CSS). * SystemAdmin macro now checks against cfg.superuser list. Other changes: * Added turkish i18n. To be considered as alpha as it got in last minute. Version 1.5.0rc1: This is the first release candidate of MoinMoin 1.5.0. Fixes: * fixed broken logs when a DeletePage (maybe also RenamePage) comment contained CR/LF characters (could happen when using copy&paste) * fixed GUI editor MoinEditorBackup page containing HTML instead of wiki markup * fixed invalid HTML in FootNotes * fixed HTML source in EditorBackup after canceling GUI editor * Footnotes of included pages are not shown at the bottom of the including page. * Bug in Dict handling that often breaks first entry Version 1.5.0beta6: Authentication: * Added SSO module for PHP based apps. Currently supported: eGroupware 1.2. No need to login in two systems anymore - MoinMoin will read the PHP session files. Fixes: * Improved rendering of bullet lists and external links in Restructured text. Thanks to Matthew Gilbert. * Fixed modern theme rendering, including some fixes and workarounds for broken MS IE. * When checking for email uniqueness, do not compare with disabled user profiles. * Fix sending of HTTP headers for Despam action. * Add some margin left and right of the link icons. Other changes: * Made it easier for auth methods needing a user interface (like ldap or mysql stuff). Unlike http auth, they usually need some "login form". We made UserPreferences login form values (name, password, login, logout) available as kw args of the auth method, so it is easy and obvious now. * Make login and logout show at the same place. Is only shown when show_login is True (default). * Disabled login using &uid=12345.67.8910 method. Please use name/password. * Made builtin moin_cookie authentication more modular: the cookie is now touched by MoinMoin.auth.moin_cookie only, with one minor discomfort: When creating a user, you are not automatically logged in any more. * We now use the packager for additional help and system pages in all other languages except English. The packages are attached to SystemPagesSetup page and can be installed from there after getting "superuser" powers. The "extra" package contains a collection of orphan pages not listed on some SystemPagesInGroup page. Version 1.5.0beta5: Fixes: * Fixed a minor user interface bug: it showed RenamePage and DeletePage actions in the menu if you only had write rights and then complained when you really tried when you had no delete rights additionally. * We don't remove RenamePage and DeletePage from menu any more if user is unknown. This stuff is only driven by ACLs now. * Some fixes to Despam action. * Fixed moin_dump (broken by some recent theme init change). * Fixed a few tests by moving the theme init from moin_dump to RequestCLI. * removed old_onload reference from infobox.js * Fixed MoinMoin logo for IE. * search: fixed whitespace handling in linkto: search terms * Increased stability of the tests system by outputting results to sys.stdout instead of request. Note that this changes the semantics for e.g. mod_py or mod_fcgi. * Fixed packaging system in the case of AddRevision that does not alter the page. * Fixed a few bugs in the XML formatters (dom_xml, text_xml, xml_docbook). * Fixed link icons. We now just use a.xxx.before where xxx is the link scheme, e.g. a.http.before. See theme's common.css. * Hopefully fixed some issue with non-ASCII attachment filenames. * Workaround for Opera 8.5 making silly "No addition" categories. * Do not show GUI editor for non-wiki format pages, because we only have a converter from html to wiki right now. * Fix the modern CSS issues for editbar, when it shifted content far right. Also removed the absolute height value that never was right. * Fix mod_python adaptor bugs failing to handle Location correctly. See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=339543 Other changes: * Added irc:// to the builtin supported link schemas. You can remove it from config.url_schemas in case you have patched it in there. * Added cfg.user_autocreate (default: False). Use True to enable user profile autocreation, e.g. when you use http authentication, so your externally authenticated users don't need to create their moin profile manually. The auth method (see cfg.auth list) must check this setting if it supports auto creation. * Added user_autocreate support for auth.http and auth.sslclientcert. * Added "." and "@" to allowed characters in usernames. This is needed e.g. when using mod_pubcookie for authentication. mod_pubcookie returns userids like "geek@ANDREW.CMU.EDU" (e.g. the Kerberos domain is part of the id). Thanks to Brian E. Gallew for his patch, which we used for inspiration for user autocreation changes. * Changed auth method to return a tuple (user_obj, continue_flag), see comments in auth.py. * auth methods now create user objects with kw args auth_method and auth_attribs, so that moin knows later how the user was authenticated and which user object attributes were determined by the auth method. * Added MoinMoin/scripts/import/IrcLogImporter.py to import supybot's IRC logs into a moin wiki. We use MonthCalendar compatible page names, so you can use the calendar for showing / navigating the logs. * Removed packager binary from FCKeditor (fixing a Debian policy problem). * Worked around .png transparency bugs of IE with the new logo. We ship two logos: moinmoin.png without an alpha channel (IE compatible) and moinmoin_alpha.png which has an alpha channel and looks better on browsers with full .png support. * Allow a .zip file to have a directory in it if it is the only one. Version 1.5.0beta4: Fixes: * use instead of for line-xxx anchors, this fixes some rendering problems on IE * Fixed the ReStructured text parser when it was used with non-HTML formatters. Increased compatiblity with new docutils code. (Thanks to Matt Gilbert.) Other changes: * cfg.stylesheets = [] (default). You can use this on wiki or farm level to emit stylesheets after the theme css and before the user prefs css. The list entries must be ('screen', '/where/ever/is/my.css') style. * Added sample code for auth using an external cookie made by some other program. See contrib/auth_externalcookie/*. You need to edit it to fit whatever cookie you want to use. Version 1.5.0beta3: Fixes: * fixed editor preview throwing away page content for new pages * require POST for userform save and create* action * use request.normalizePagename() while collecting pagelinks * do not offer gui editor for safari Other changes: * tell user if account is disabled * added support for linking to .ico and .bmp * attachment methods for the text_xml and xml_docbook formatters * new favicon * updated i18n (fixed nl, did nobody notice this?) and underlay * changed show_interwiki default to 0 Version 1.5.0beta2: Fixes: * fix wrong _ in title links (MoinMoinBugs/AddSpaceWikiNameAtHead) * fix gui editor (converter) crash on save * MoinMoinBugs/PageHitsFails * MoinMoinBugs/PackagePagesFailsBecauseAllowedActionsMissing * Avoid destroying existing page content if editor is called with template parameter for an existing page. * fix countdown javascript for browser status line in editor * added page title display for editor * added header div for classic theme Authentication and related: * Added a WhoAmI.py wiki xmlrpc plugin to check whether auth works correctly for xmlrpc. There is a counterpart script WhoAmI.py that uses http auth when calling the xmlrpc plugin, so you can use it to check http auth. Version 1.5.0beta1: * Requirements changed to require Python >= 2.3. We recommend that you use the latest Python release you can get. The reason we dropped 2.2.2 support is because no developer or tester uses this old version any more, so incompatibilities crept in the code without anybody noticing. Using some recent Python usually is no real problem, see there for some hints in case you still run an old python: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/NewPythonOnOldLinux The hint also does apply to other POSIX style operating systems, not only Linux. * We recommend you use MoinMoin/scripts/cachecleaner.py to clean the wiki's cache (see comments at top of the script). The cache will automatically be rebuilt (some operations may take some time when first being used, e.g. linkto: search, so be patient!). Config Changes: * see MoinMoin/multiconfig.py (just read, don't edit) for configuration settings you might not know, see also HelpOnConfiguration in your local wiki * new defaults: * page_front_page old: u"FrontPage" new: u"HelpOnLanguages" please just read the help page in case you see it :) * bang_meta old: 0 new: 1 * show_section_numbers old: 1 new: 0 * some regexes that used to be [a-z]Uxxxx$ are now [a-z0-9]Uxxxx$ * navi_bar has no page_front_page as first element any more * removed settings and code [new behaviour]: * acl_enabled [1] * allow_extended_names [1] * allow_numeric_entities [1] * backtick_meta [1] * allow_subpages [1] * new settings: * cfg.mail_sendmail = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i" can be used if sending via SMTP doesn't work on your server. Default is None and that means using SMTP. * language_default replaces the old default_lang setting (just renamed). * language_ignore_browser = True can be used to let moin ignore the user's browser settings (e.g. if you run a local-language only wiki and your users use misconfigured or buggy browsers often). Default is False. Don't forget to set language_default when using this. * Wiki Editor changes / new WYSIWYG editor * fully imported the javascript based LGPLed FCKeditor (many thanks to Fred CK for his great work). See http://fckeditor.net/ for details. * config for FCKeditor is at wiki/htdocs/applets/moinfckeditor.js * added cfg.interwiki_preferred (default = []) to set a list of wikis to show at the top of the wiki selection list when inserting an interwiki link (just use the same wiki name as in interwiki map). If the last list item is None, then the preferred wikis will not be followed by the entries of the interwiki map. * moved save/preview/... buttons to the top so that they can be easily reached * reduced edit_rows default to 20 lines * Added support for edit by doubleclick in the diff view * Improved wiki farm support * make user files sharable between several wikis in a farm * allow/use interwiki subscriptions * use interwiki links in page trail * save bookmark per wiki name * cfg.cookie_domain can be used to set a cookie valid for a complete domain (default: None == only for this host). If you use '.domain.tld', the cookie will be valid for all hosts *.domain.tld - good for host based wiki farms. * cfg.cookie_path can be used to set a cookie valid for a wiki farm under some base path (default: None == only for this wiki's path). If you use '/wikifarm', the cookie will be valid for all wikis server.tld/wikifarm/* - good for path based wiki farms. * Interwiki user homepage (if you have MANY users) Generated links for usernames are interwiki now, use cfg.user_homewiki (default: 'Self') to specify in which wiki the user home pages are located. Note: when pointing this to another wiki, the /MoinEditorBackup functionality will be disabled. @SIG@ also uses interwiki when needed. * Authentication, ACLs and related * Modular authentication: cfg.auth is a list of functions that return a valid user or None, use it like this: from MoinMoin.auth import http, moin_cookie auth = [http, moin_cookie] * cfg.auth_http_enabled was removed, please use cfg.auth instead. * http auth now supports "Negotiate" scheme, too * Added sslclientcert auth method (Apache: untested, Twisted: not implemented, IIS: no idea). See MoinMoin/auth.py for details. Submit a patch if you have improvements. * cfg.superuser is a list of unicode usernames. It is used by some critical operations like despam action or PackageInstaller. * removed allowed_actions, we now use actions_excluded only and it defaults to [], that means, no action is excluded, everything is allowed (limited by ACLs). In case of RenamePage and DeletePage, this shouldn't be a problem as both can be reverted. In case you did not allow attachments, you now have to use: actions_excluded = ['AttachFile'] * special users (All, Known, Trusted) in Groups are now supported * MoinMoin.util.autoadmin SecurityPolicy added When using this security policy, a user will get admin rights on his homepage (where pagename == username) and its sub pages. This is needed for the MyPages action, but can also get used for manual ACL changes. It can also be used for Project page auto admin functionality, see the comments in the script for details. Further it can automatically create the user's group pages when the user saves his homepage. * there is a UpdateGroup xmlrpc call, see MoinMoin/xmlrpc/UpdateGroup.py - you can use this to update your *Group pages e.g. when generating them from an external group database. * UserPreferences changes * Alias name: is used for display purposes, when "name" is cryptic. It is shown e.g. in the title attribute of userid links (displayed when moving the mouse over it). * "Publish my email (not my wiki homepage) in author info" - use this if you don't have a wiki homepage, but if you want to be contactable by email. When you edit a page, your email address will be published as mailto: link on RecentChanges, at bottom of page (last editor) and in page info. If the wiki runs publically on the internet, be careful using this or your email address might be collected by spammers. * Preferred Editor: whether you want to use the text editor (as in previous moin versions), the gui editor (new!) or both (you will get 2 edit links in that case). * a user can add/remove the current page to/from his quicklinks with an appropriate action now * if cfg.user_email_unique = False, we don't require user's email addresses to be unique * removed show_fancy_links user preferences setting to simplify code and caching. Displaying those icons is now done by CSS styles (see common.css). Maybe needs fixing for non-standard themes and RTL langs. * Markup * added strikethrough markup: --(striked through text here)-- * @ME@ expands to just the plain username (no markup added) on save * User homepages * when a user accesses his own non-existing homepage (pagename == username), the wiki will present the MissingHomePage system page content, explaining what a user homepage is good for and offer one-click editing it with content loaded from HomepageTemplate * creation of homepage subpages is assisted by the MyPages action, which offers rw, ro page creation (and a related group) or creation of private pages. If you are not in the user_homewiki, you will get redirected there first. Other changes/new features: * Added PackageInstaller and unzipping support (see wiki page HelpOnActions/AttachFile for further details). PackageInstaller requires the user to be in cfg.superuser list. * Added an PackagePages action to simplify the package creation. * Added location breadcrumbs - when you are on some subpage, the page title parts link to the corresponding parent pages, the last part does the usual reverse linking. * added WSGI server support, thanks to Anakim Border, see: wiki/server/moinwsgi.py (moin as WSGI app, uses the flup WSGI server, see http://www.saddi.com/software/flup/) MoinMoin/server/wsgi.py (adaptor code) * added a "Despam" action to make de-spamming a wiki easy (mass revert bad changes done by a single author or bot). You need to be in cfg.superuser to use it. * Better diffs with links to anchors to the changed places * Enhanced table support in the DocBook formatter. * Added 'moin' daemon script, that let you run moin standalone server as daemon and control the server with simple command line intreface: moin start | stop | restart | kill * Add 'restart' option to mointwisted script * Add properties option to standalone server config. Allow overriding any request property like in other server types. * Add support for running behind proxy out of the box with out manual url mapping. See HelpOnConfiguration/IntegratingWithApache * added a WikiBackup action, configure it similar to this: data_dir = "/path/to/data" backup_include = [data_dir, ] # you can add other dirs here backup_users = ["BackupUserName", ] # only TRUSTED users! You usually don't need to change the default backup_exclude setting. The default backup_include list is EMPTY and so will be your backup in case you don't configure it correctly. If you put your data_dir there, the backup will contain private user data like email addresses and encrypted passwords. * Added a SubscribeUser action which allows the administrator to subscribe users to the current page. * Added thread count to SystemInfo macro. * Added Petr's newest patch against the DocBook code. It allows you to use macros (esp. the include macro) in DocBook pages in order to build larger documents. * Added a RenderAsDocbook action which redirects to the DocBook formatter. * Added searching for wiki-local words lists under /dict/. They are used additionally to the global lists in MoinMoin/dict/. * moin_dump now also dumps attachments referenced from the page. It doesn't dump stuff that is just attached, but not referenced! * On RecentChanges we now force the comment to be breakable, this improves rendering of over-long words or on narrow browser windows - especially for themes with limited content width like rightsidebar. * We now have the "new" icon on RecentChanges clickable, just links to the page. * Print view now shows "interwikiname: pagename" (for show_interwiki = 1). International support: * mail_from can be now a unicode name-address e.g u'Jürgen wiki ' Theme changes: * logo_string is now should be really only the logo (img). If you included your wiki's name in logo_string you maybe want to remove it now as it is shown as part of the location display now anyway (if you set show_interwiki = 1). * You maybe want to remove page_front_page from your navi_bar - we link to that page now from the logo and (new, if you set show_interwiki = 1) from the interwiki name displayed in location display, so you maybe don't need it in navi_bar, too. * If you have a custom theme, you should / may: * sync modern/css/screen.css #pagelocation #pagetrail stuff to your screen.css or pagelocation display (title()) will look strange (like a list). * remove "#title h1 ..." CSS (or any other CSS assuming h1 is a page title and not just a first level heading), it is not used any more. * we now render = heading = as

    (was

    before 1.5), == heading == as

    (was

    ), etc. * maybe move both title() and trail() to header area, like the builtin themes do it. * there is a new interwiki() base theme method that optionally (if show_interwiki = 1) shows the interwiki name of this wiki and links to page_front_page. The css for it is #interwiki. Developer notes: * Plugin API was improved. When plugin module is missing, wikiutil.PluginMissingError is raised. When trying to import a missing name from a plugin module, wikiutil.PluginMissingError is raised. You must update any code that use wikiutil.importPlugin. Errors in your plugin should raise now correct tracebacks. See http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/ErrorHandlingInPlugins * pysupport.importName was changed, it does not check for any errors when trying to import a name from a module. The calling code should check for ImportError or AttributeError. Previous code used to hide all errors behind None. * Its easier now to customize the editbar by overriding editbarItems() in your theme, and returning a list of items to display in the editbar. To change a single editbar link, override one of the xxxLink methods in your theme. Internal Changes: * request.formatter (html) is available for actions now * theme API's d['page_home_page'] is gone (sorry) and replaced by d['home_page'] which is either None or tuple (wikiname,pagename). It is better to use the base classes function for username/prefs anyway. * introduced cfg.hacks for internal use by development, see comment in multiconfig.py and file HACKS. * added IE7 (v0.9) from Dean Edwards (see http://dean.edwards.name/IE7/) - that should fix quite some IE bugs and annoyances (on Win32). * for enabling IE7, use cfg.hacks = { 'ie7': True } * reducewiki now also copies all attachments (we use that to make underlay directory from moinmaster wiki's data_dir) Fixes: * Fixed a typo in xslt.py which led to a traceback instead of an error message in case of disabled XSLT support. * Fixed crash in twisted server if twisted.internet.ssl is not available. * Fixed wrong decoding of query string, enable wiki/?page_name urls with non ascii page names. * Fixed wrong display of non ascii attachments names in RecentChanges and page revision history. * Fixed a crash when trying to run standalone server on non posix os. * Fixed highlight of misspelled words in Check Spelling action. * Fixed case insensitivity problems on darwin (Mac OS X). See MoinMoinBugs/MacHfsPlusCaseInsensitive * Added RecentChanges (only the english one) to the pages getting html_head_index headers * text_html cache files written with this code will invalidate themselves if they detect to be older than the wikiconfig. Note: you should remove all old text_html cache files once after upgrading, they will then be rebuilt automatically with the new code. * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/12_to_13_mig10_Walk * Fixed the word_rule: a word like AAAbbAbb isn't teared into two parts any more (was: AAAbbAbb) * Fixed false positive InterWiki markup for languages like Finnish. InterWiki links are only rendered if the left side has an appropriate entry in the interwiki map, otherwise it is rendered as simple text. * Fixed unicode error when uploding non-ascii file name using mod python. * Fixed error handling of wikirpc requests, should give more correct errors and prevent no error output and blocking the client in some cases. * Fixed the "lost password" mail processing. If a user entered some email address unknown to the system, he was not notified of this, but just got a useless mail with no account data in it. Now the system directly tells the user that he entered an unknown email address. * Fixed SystemInfo, it now also lists parsers in data/plugin/parser dir. * Fix error handling on failure, improved error display * Fix error handling when importing plugins or importing modules dynamically. The fix is not backward compatible with older plugins. * Fix chart action, returns a page with error message when chart can not be created. * Fixed formatter usage in the ShowSmileys macro. * Fixed updating pagelinks cache for [:page:text] or [wiki:Self:page text], fixes display of LocalSiteMap and rendering of such links. * Hopefully fixed urllib problems (esp. with py 2.4.2, but also before) by using our own urllib wrapper that handles encoding/decoding to/from unicode, see wikiutil.py. Also made a similar fix for making and parsing query strings. * Fixed MonthCalendar tooltips when containing special chars like quotes. * Added html escaping for diff text for RSS feed with diff=1. * The distance between page content beginning and the first = heading = was much too much. Fixed. Version 1.4: We used that version number for an internal and early development version for what will be called moin 2.0 at some time in the future. There will never be a 1.4.x release. Version 1.3.5 (2005-08-04, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-883) Fixes: * small CSS fix for rightsidebar theme * applied some Debian patches (thanks to Jonas!): * de i18n spelling fixes * AttachFile fix, we strip CR in .draw files now * when loading spellcheck dictionaries, we want utf-8, but we make a 2nd try with iso-8859-1 encoding. New Features: * enabled using https with the Twisted server: You need to use port 443, have PyOpenSSL (+ ssl libs it depends on) installed and have some site key and certificate PEM files configured in your twistedmoin.py file: sslcert = ('/whereever/cert/sitekey.pem', '/whereever/cert/sitecert.pem') Version 1.3.5rc1 (2005-07-31, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-865) Fixes: * Fixed security bug when acl of deleted page was ignored. See: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/ACLIgnoredAfterDelete * AttachFile did not display the original filename plus there was a confusion in input field labelling ('Rename to'). * Fixed shortcut link non-existent page detection. * Fixed non-working bookmark function on python 2.2.x. * Fixed wikirpc getPageInfo call on python 2.2.x. * Fixed the failing import of plugins from the data/plugin/ directories if run in zipimport environments. * Fixed traceback which occurred on negated searches. * Fixed crash when trying to render error message on twisted, fast cgi and modpy. * Fixed error message with modpy, used to show wrong errors below the real message. * Fixed search and goto text fields for better compatibility with dark themes and better control through css. * Show an edit link if MissingPage is missing and a warning in the server log. * Fixed missing footer in the editor. * Fixed indented (invalid) headings with broken links in table of contents. * Fixed crash when file name is too long, show standard error message. * Save trail file in a safe way, should be enough for normal use. * Fixed remember_last_visit user preferences option when show_trail is not selected. * Fixed the tests for Standalone, Twisted, FastCGI and Mod_Python. Run with ?action=test from any page. * Fixed rare bug when wrong search type was performed when pasting search term in Safari. * Fixed crash for custom formatters and dom_xml (which occurred if smileys were in the page). * Editor opens on double click in pages with single quote in the name, like "Ben's Wiki". * '/.' in page names are not replaced any more by '/(2e)' * Fixed the long delays while saving pages using RequestCLI. * Fixed variable expanding for users with non WikiName. * Fixed MonthCalendar's calculation of "today" to use the user's time zone setting. * Fixed moin_dump script, use same configuration options as other scripts. * Fixed url_mappings to work in proxied setups and sent mails again. Also fixed for image links. Thanks to JohannesBerg. * Fixed page shown after saving a drawing (esp. when saved from a sub page). Fixed help link for drawings. * Fixed mig10 script to run on Python < 2.3. * The twisted server defaulted to a socket timeout of 12 hours! We reduced that to a more sane 10 minutes, that should still be more than enough. This fixed the "too many open files" problem we encountered quite often recently. Thanks to Helmut Grohne! Other Changes: * Added {hu} flag. * Added cz, pt and pt-br i18n. * We send a 404 http status code for nonexisting wiki pages now, maybe this will repell some search engines from requesting gone pages again and again. The wiki user still sees the MissingPage wiki stuff, so a user usually won't notice this change. * Return 500 error code on failure and exceptions. * Added some more bot / leech tool user agent strings. * Prevent page floating elements from floating out of the page over the footer, in modern, rightsidebar and classic themes. * Encode URLs in a safer way * We allow usernames with ' character in them now (like Tim O'Brian). * Added support for the new security flags in docutils 0.3.9. * @MAILTO@ expands now to safer [[MailTo()]] macro. * Clarified and i18ned lost password mails. * Added 'TitleIndex' and 'SiteNavigation' (+ translation) to the list of pages that use html_head_index (so that robots "index,follow"). Please make sure to have either FindPage, TitleIndex or SiteNavigation in your navi_bar or in your page_front_page content if you want search engines to find all your pages. * Make it possible to send account data when being logged in (for future reference or whatever purpose). * Speed up when running with persistent servers, the wiki config does only get loaded once and misc. stuff is being cached between requests now. * The unit tests are disabled when using multi threading, because the wiki configuration is shared between diffrent threads. * The main code path (using standalone server) of MoinMoin runs on PyPy now. * Formatters do automatically transform HTML to plain text if they are called with raw HTML code. * Using larger socket backlog on Standalone and FastCGI servers should be more reliable on high load. * We now strip leading path from attachments uploaded by IE (this is a bug in IE, not in MoinMoin). Better use a sane browser, like Firefox. * added "teleport" to the user agent blacklist New Features: * Integrated Lupy indexer for better search performance. It is disabled by default as of 1.3.5 as it still has known issues. See multiconfig.py if you want to test it. * Integrated MonthCalendar 2.1, with some new features: * a mouseover bubble that shows first level headlines of the linked day page * all calendars with same pagename move when using cal navigation, thanks to Oliver Graf * included AnnualMonthlyCalendar patch of Jonathan Dietrich (use [[MonthCalendar(Yearly,,,+1,,6,1)]] syntax for birthdays and other annually repeating stuff) Make sure you remove old MonthCalendar.* from data/plugin/macro so that moin will use the new code in MoinMoin/macro/MonthCalendar.py. Maybe also clear the text_html cache. * Added the new XSLT parser and the DocBook parser. This should increase the 4suite compatiblity. See HelpOnXmlPages for details. It now should run on 4suite 1.0a4 and 1.0b1. Thanks to Henry Ho! * Added the DocBook formatter. This will let you generate DocBook markup by writing simple wiki pages. It needs PyXML. * It is now possible to customize parts of the UserPreferences page in your wikiconfig (changing defaults, disabling fields, removing fields): * Use user_checkbox_* for the checkboxes. * Use user_form_* for other fields. * See MoinMoin/multiconfig.py for the built-in defaults. * New standalone server classes: ThreadPoolServer using pool of threads, ThreadingServer with thread limit and ForkingServer. * New standalone server configuration options: serverClass, threadLimit, requestQueueSize. * Use "PythonOption Location" in mod_python setup to solve script_name problems. Developer notes: * Theme can now override maxPagenameLength() method to control page name shortening. * A search Match now provides access to the full re match via the re_match attribute (use to access groups of the match) * Underlay is not managed by arch any more. The tree contains an underlay tarball, and you should untar after you update from main. * "make update-underlay" will untar underlay * "make merge" will star-merge main into your tree * "make test" will now create and run in a fresh testwiki instace * "make clean" options added * _tests module does not have a global request any more. To refer to the current request in a test, use self.request. * _tests.TestConfig class require a request in the constructor. * "python tests/runtests.py test_module" will run only test_module * request.cfg stays between requests (for persistent servers). Version 1.3.4 (2005-03-13, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-666) Fixes: * Fixed ACL check in LikePages macro that caused links to unreadable pages to show. * Fixed ACL check in newpage action. * Fixed a security problem when admin policy defined in a custom SecurityPolicy class was ignored. * Fixed ACL check in action=show so that a user who may not read a page also can't find out WHEN the protected page was updated. * Workaround on Windows 95, 98, ME in order to clear the dircache. This fixes some bugs related to an outdated page list and newly created pages that did not appear immediately. * Fixed decoding issues of page names on Windows, finally. http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/BrokenUmlautsInLinksIn131 * Fixed traceback on IIS. http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/request%2epy_broken_on_IIS * Fixed wikirpc for standalone server. * Other fixes (encoding and str/unicode data type related) to wikirpc server, fixing some non-ascii issues hopefully. * Fixed broken query strings for Standalone installations. * Fixed backlinks - the result did not always show all links, often it showed too many irrelevant matches (MoinMoinBugs/BacklinksAreBroken). * Fixed the acceptance of the show_hosts setting. Now you should be able to hide any IP or host name from being published by MoinMoin by enabling this option. * Fixed wrong line endings on email messages. * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/StandaloneUnquotesTooMuch. * Fixed crash when trail file is missing. * Fixed a traceback when searching for single ( or ). * Added mig10 script to fix crashes with uncoverted edit-locks and file attachments. Just use it as you did with mig1..mig9 before. * Added mig11 script to add __init__.py files to data/plugin (and below). * added some fixes for the xslt parser (thanks to fanbanlo), it might be still broken, but someone with deeper knowledge about xslt should fix it. * Replaced image link with W3C's "html 4.01 compliance" icon by a simple text link to avoid https: or config trouble. * Catch OverflowError backtrace when illegal date strings (e.g. <1970 or >2038) are fed to moinmoin's time routines. It will just output current date / time in those cases. * UserPreferences now also set a date_fmt preference and Date macro honours it. You may have to reset your UserPreferences value for that. * Fixed free parent and subpage links in interwiki notation. http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/FreeParentLinksAreBroken * Fixed a traceback for invalid ReST markup. * Fixed UnicodeError in SystemAdmin's Attachment Browser. Other Changes: * Optimized the IRC parser. * Support for zipimport of the MoinMoin package. This allows you to use py2exe and similar programs. * Show the editor's name in the mail subject. * Added the pragmas description and keywords. They will add headers if used. * Added MoinMoin/scripts/xmlrpc-tools/putPageTest.py example script, useful as a starting point for importing data using wiki xmlrpc. * Optimised display on Opera browser. New features: * The search modifier "linkto:" was introduced. You can use it to search for links. * The NewPage macro now can take a PageTemplate parameter, see HelpOnMacros. * New config settings (so you don't need to edit wikirpc.py any more): xmlrpc_putpage_enabled = 0 (if 1, enables writing to arbitrary page names) xmlrpc_putpage_trusted_only = 1 (if 0, doesn't require users to be authenticated by http auth - DANGEROUS, DO NOT SET TO 0!!!) * Added support for Digest and NTLM authentication with CGI (e.g. if you use those Apache modules) * The datetime string accepted by Date and DateTime macros was extended to accept a timezone specification, so now +/-HHMM is also valid, e.g.: 2005-03-06T15:15:57Z (UTC, same as +0000) 2005-03-06T15:15:57+0000 (UTC) 2005-03-06T16:15:57+0100 (same time given as local time for time zone with offset +0100, that is CET, e.g. Germany) 2005-03-06T10:15:57-0500 (same time given as local time for time zone with offset -0500, EST, US Eastern Std. Time) The values given as macro argument will be transformed to UTC internally and then adapted again according to viewing user's UserPreferences, so the user will see the same moment in time but shown in his local time zone's time (at least if he set his UserPreferences correctly and didn't forget changing them twice a year for DST and non-DST). * Readded (now optional) editlink footer to Include macro. Add ',editlink' to call to enable this. * star "smileys" e.g. {*}{*}{*}{o}{o} Version 1.3.3 (2005-01-24, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-595) Fixes: * fixed ACL security problem in search * fix for IIS with CGI allowing page names that contain chars that are not in the system code page * fixed MoinEditorBackup revisions to start with 1 now * improved page locking ('current' file) * Unittests (normally shown at end of action=test output) are currently disabled for everything except CGI, because they only work reliably with CGI, giving wrong results for other request methods. Version 1.3.2 (2005-01-23, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-587) Fixes: * ACL bugfix for deleted pages with ACL protection. * ACL bugfix for "Default" acl. * Fixed updating of groups and dicts * Python 2.2.x related fixes (worked on 2.3+) * Fixed traceback in RecentChanges. * Fixed traceback with links browser. * Fixed 0 revision display in 'Show changes'. * Fixed traceback in Antispam which occurred when it could not connect to MoinMaster. Log the errors to stderr or error.log. * Fixed bug in Page init (no date, use rev). Fixes problem with #deprecated PI. * Fixed empty lists in empty search results. * Cosmetic fix for modern theme (when viewed with Internet Explorer). * Fixed migration 9 script, do not drop newline, do not drop error.log, note about missing error.log. * Fixed repair_language.py script, keep ending newline on revisions. * Show headings and macro content in correct direction when mixing content in several directions in the same page and using caching. * Fixed bug in standalone re farmconfig. * Fixed DOS condition in antispam code. * Use smaller margin in print mode to get better results with Mozilla/Firefox. * Fixed some user input escaping issues. * Fixed a problem when one wiki plugin override other wikis plugins in same farm. * Fixed some broken tests. * Fixed recursive include in pstats. * Fixed bug in standalone - HTTP result code was 200 even when the access was forbidden. * Fixed traceback when trying to login with non-ascii password. * Fixed traceback when xml is not available, reported on Python 2.2.? * Fixed slideshow to show slides in sorted order again. * Fixed serving multiple wikis on same IP/different ports with twisted and farmconfig. * It is possible to run with data_underlay_dir = None for special application, but be aware that the wiki won't be usable unless you have at least some of the system pages from underlay/ available. * Files with Unicode characters in their filename are possible now. * Bugfix for broken [:page#anchor:text] links. * Workaround an instability of the gdchart module leading to stalled servers etc. * Fixed some event-log decoding issues that affect charts rendering. Other changes: * Major speed improvement over 1.3.1. Many times faster title search, creating new page, opening page editor and any operation that list pages. See http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinBenchmarks * Improved README.migration. * Cleaner design for login/register interface, login is always the default button when the user click Enter. * If there are problems found in the configuration, log the error and display helpful error messages in the browser. * More forgiving unicode configuration policy, you must use the u'string' format only for unicode values. * Added profiling to CGI. * The content of farmconfig.py is similar to wikiconfig.py now. * Unexpected errors while loading cache files are logged. * i18n for icon ALT tags. * Include request initialization code in the profile in standalone server. * When creating new theme, style sheets are inherited correctly, no need to override style sheets just to get them working. * Many times faster plugin system. Typical pages are about 35% faster, pages with many plugins can be many times faster. * Spiders are allowed to fetch attachments. * Old user files containing password hash encoded in pre 1.3 charset are auto repaired on first login. * data_dir defaults to './data', underlay_data_dir to './underlay' now. It is a good idea to replace those by absolute pathes in wikiconfig.py. * Renamed "Refresh" to "Delete Cache" - it was misused by users. The action was also moved into the action menu in the modern and rightsidebar themes. * Added a workaround for TableOfContents missing some links by making it uncacheable via a "time" dependency. * Removed interwiki icon and title attribute for wiki:Self:... links. * Unittests (normally shown at end of action=test output) are currently disabled because they worked unreliably, giving wrong results sometimes. New features: * Create new pages easily using configurable interface and page templates with the new NewPage macro. * ReStructuredText (rst) support is built-in now. See HelpOnParsers. * New experimental feature in mointwisted.py - each interface may specify a port: '12.34.56.78:80'. Without a port, the port option is used. API changes: * For a complete list of changes, see MoinMoin:ApiChanges. * wikiutil.importPlugin's first argument is now a wiki config instance (request.cfg) and there is no path keyword. * Wiki plugins always override MoinMoin plugins. wikiutil.importPlugin implements this override. * util.pysupport.importName does not accept path - you should call it with correct module name, e.g 'wikiconfig.plugin.parser.wiki' for wiki plugins, or 'MoinMoin.parser.wiki'. * wikiutil.extensionPlugin was renamed to wikiPlugins and it gets config instance instead of path. * New function wikiutil.importWikiPlugin used to import wiki plugins using a cache in a thread safe way. * New config option config.use_threads is used to activate thread safe code. * New keyword arguments for getPageList, enable 10X faster operation for common cases by controlling page filtering. * New up to 100X times faster getPageCount Version 1.3.1 (2004-12-13, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-434) Fixes: * Fixed "Error Cyclic usage" crash when user had Italian (it), Korean (ko), Serbian (sr) or Vietnamese (vi) as user interface language. * Fall back to en (instead of crashing) when user uses a language moin does not support / does not support any more (like pt,sv,fi,sr). * In 1.3.0, people accidentally put iso-8859-1 chars into wiki configs, but those where expected to be pure utf-8 and thus it crashed. Fixed by using unicode strings (varname = u'whatever'), a matching encoding setting (see top of script comment) and, when decoding strings, using decode to ASCII with replace mode (this replaces non-ASCII chars, but at least it won't crash - and you get a warning to better use Unicode strings). * Fixed long time broken table formatting. || PyXML 0.8.4 (cvs version) Python 2.3.x -> PyXML 0.8.3 Python 2.2.2+ -> ??? This will also make "Live Bookmarks" of Mozilla Firefox working. New: if you don't have PyXML installed, the RSS icon on RecentChanges will not be displayed any more. Python with no PyXML installed generates invalid RSS XML. Page names handling * Handling of special characters in file names changed from _xx format to (xx...) format. * In URLs, moin now uses %xx%yy quoting, (because this is supported by browsers), and sub pages use "/" instead of the ugly "_2f". * Underscore character "_" is used now as a space character " " both in file names and URLs. " " and "_" will be handled equivalent at most places in the future (represented as "_", rendered as " "). * To prevent wiki abuse and user typing errors, page names are normalized in URLs, query strings, the "go" box and when renaming pages. This include leading, trailing and multiple slashes and white space. Certain invisible unicode characters are removed from page names. * Group page names are restricted even more, any non unicode alpha-numeric character is removed. This is done to enable changing acl syntax in the future. The restriction might be loosen on future versions. * You can edit config.page_invalid_chars_regex to control which characters are allowed in page names (Changing it is not supported). * When you enter page name, it is normalized and you are redirected to the normalized page, or if nothing left (e.g '/////'), to FrontPage. * When renaming a page to a name that can be normalized to an empty string, the new page name will be "EmptyName" and the user will not get an error message. Underlay directory * Pages (especially system and help pages) are now located in an underlay directory (data_underlay_dir). You will see the pages there if they are NOT covered (overlayed) by a page in the normal pages directory (as set using data_dir). MAKE SURE THAT data_underlay_dir IS CORRECT OR YOU WILL SEE MANY EMPTY PAGES ONLY IN A NEW WIKI. * If you edit a page that is shown from underlay directory, it will be copied to the normal page directory on save (copy-on-write). * You can use one copy of the underlay directory shared by many wiki instances. Each wiki will then have only your local, self-made wiki pages in its data directory, and only system and help pages in the single, shared underlay directory - this simplifies upgrades a lot. * It is recommended to keep your underlay system and help pages immutable using acl, so you can upgrade your wiki easily. The default help and system pages already have those ACLs (using MoinPagesEditorGroup). * Do not forget to remove your old help and system pages after migrating your wiki. We don't provide a script for that as that would be dangerous for edited pages. Just use some file manager (e.g. mc) to clean the data/pages/ directory. As soon as you have removed the system pages there, you will see the new pages in the underlay dir. See the EditedSystemPages page for a list of pages that exist in both data and underlay directory (use this page as admin!). Multiple languages * New file name quoting method allow 50% longer page names in languages that use more than one byte per character, like Hebrew, Korean etc. * Configuration file uses 'utf-8' encoding now. Certain values that are marked with [Unicode] can use any character in your language. Examples are page names in navi_bar, page types regular expressions and site name. * For configuration examples adopted to your language, check ConfigMarket in the MoinMoin wiki. * The system and help pages that come with moin are now in utf-8. * MissingPage system page localized, should display in your language. * We did many i18n (translation) updates. * CSS file use utf-8 encoding. User css is also expected to be utf-8. This is relevant only if you use non-ASCII values in the CSS file. * config.upperletters and config.lowerletters were removed. We now use a pre-made ucs-2 spanning set and you usually don't have to change it. See MoinMoin/util/chartypes.py if you're interested. * ACL works with any user name or group name in any language, even names with spaces. * Now you can use any charset in config.charset. Note: only utf-8 is a supported configuration! * Improved url handling, now creating pages directly from the browser url box with non-ascii names works in most cases, even when config.charset is not utf-8. * When using non-utf-8 config.charset, characters in URLs that does fit in the charsets are replaced with "?" (instead of crashing). * All themes and most macros and actions are Right to Left friendly. Full RTL support planned for 1.3 release. * If page language is specified with #language processing instruction the page is displayed in the correct direction. Pages without language are displayed using the wiki default_lang. Multiple configurations * You can run multiple wikis from the same wiki directory or server. For example, you can run one Twisted server that serve multiple wikis, instead of running multiple servers. Samples of the new configuration are supplied in wiki/config/*. * You can't just use your old moin_config.py file. It is now called wikiconfig.py and the config variables now have to be in a class "Config" and that class must inherit from MoinMoin.multiconfig.DefaultConfig - see the provided wikiconfig.py sample for details. This is very useful, e.g. you could derive a GermanConfig from DefaultConfig. After that, you can derive configs for wikiA and wikiB from that GermanConfig. * farmconfig.py contains a mapping attribute called "wikis" with pairs of wikiconfig module name and regular expression. The regular expression is matched against the URL of the request and the first matching entry determines the config module to be imported by MoinMoin. * If you use farmconfig.py's "wikis" mapping, then any wiki has a private config module, named after the wiki - e.g. wiki named moinmoin would use moinmoin.py. * If you only have a single wiki, you do not need farmconfig.py. just make a wikiconfig.py and it will be used no matter what URL is requested. * There is one common global "config" that holds sitewide settings (like umask or charset) - you do not need to change settings there. This file is located in the MoinMoin code: MoinMoin/config.py. General configuration * SecurityPolicy now uses "write" instead of "edit" (so it is may.write now). This is to get it in sync with ACLs. * SecurityPolicy now automatically can use everything in acl_rights_valid. * There is a new config option "config_check_enabled". It will warn about any unknown variable name (probably typo) to stderr or error.log. If something doesn't work at all and changing the config does no difference, switch it on and look at the error message. * The sample config file comes with config_check_enabled = 1. If you introduce additional variables yourself, you definitely want to switch that check off or it will fill your log. * If you define "page_front_page" variable, this name will show in the navigation bar now, instead of the default "FrontPage". New search engine * Full text and title search do support multiple search terms now - see HelpOnSearching for details. * Regular expressions are still supported but have to be turned on per search term. Search terms in macros using regular expressions will have to be fixed. * The URL interface of the search engine has also changed. Links that point directly to search actions may be broken. User names * User names can not use group names, even if ACLs are not enabled. This will prevent error later, if you start to use acl in the future (acl is going to be mandatory in 1.5). * User names are not restricted any more to only CamelCase. * To prevent imposing as other users, leading, trailing and multiple whitespace in user names is not allowed. Only Unicode alpha numeric characters are allowed, with optional one space character between words. * When a user name with a group name or "bad" name is trying to access the wiki, he is redirected to the UserPreferences page and asked to create a new account. * When trying to login or create a new account with a bad name, correct error message is displayed in all cases. CGI * You can not use your old moin.cgi file, as we removed cgimain.py (was deprecated since 1.2). Copy the new file from the server dir. Moin servers - Twisted and standalone * Configuration self checking on startup. Will raise an error in case of bad configuration or non-accessible directories. * Both use shorter and identical configuration options. * Server scripts contain detailed comments and examples. * Configuration defaults changed to fit most users. * There is memory profiler option for debugging, switched off by default. * If you perform a standard install, server scripts should run out of the box or with minimal change. Twisted server * All code moved into the new server package, the server script contains only configuration options. * Listen to more than one interface with "interfaces" list. * Code updated to new Twisted API. * Use mointwisted script to start and stop the server, using "mointwisted start" and "mointwisted stop". * The Twisted server runs as daemon by default. * All moin Twisted files are called now mointwisted instead of moin_twisted. * Fixed getting username from Twisted request (http auth) Standalone server * Configuration moved from moin_config.py to moin.py. * If run as root, you can set both user and group for the server. * Can use logfile instead of logging to stderr. * Fixed missing unquoting of query string (caused problems in rare cases). mod_python server * moin_modpy server files renamed to moinmodpy. Wiki Markup * '''strong''', ''em'' and __underline__ have now paragraph scope. You can set these attributes on words level. For multiple paragraphs, wrap each with needed markup. * If you leave unclosed ''', '' and __ markup, its is closed when the paragraph ends. User interface * Due to many changes in CSS files, the wiki may look "broken" until your reload once or twice, or empty your browser cache. * The "Send mail notification" checkbox is replaced by "Trivial change" checkbox. The default behavior did not change - regular edit is not a trivial change, and mail will be sent to subscribes. If you check trivial change, mail will be sent only to users who selected to get trivial changes in their user preferences. * New theme "modern" has been added, and used as default theme. * classic and rightsidebar improved. * viewonly theme removed, as any theme can be use now as viewonly by using #acl All:read in the wikiconfig. * All themes use new navibar, displaying both wiki links, user links and the current page. * navibar and pagetrail use now shortened page names, so very long names does not break the interface visually. * All themes have improved search interface at the top of the window. * Only avaiable actions are displayed, so most situations when a user try to do something he can't do are prevented. * When creating a new page, no action is available until the page is created. You can't attach files to non-existing page any more. * Non registered users get a "login" link. Registered uses get "username" link to their home page, and "user preferences" link. * Messages more clear using bold type, designed by css. * Few useless messages removed (but there are many more) * Default wiki logo uses the wiki name instead of the MoinMoin troll logo. Other fixes and changes * Most generated html code is valid "html 4 strict". There are still some problems that still have to be fixed, mainly macros, table attributes, and inline markup crossing (). * WantedPages can include and exclude system pages, which makes it much more useful. * Fixed a bug in TitleIndex where not all system pages are excluded. * RenamePage action now renames everything, including backups, page history, attachments. It does not change toplevel editlog, though. After you rename a page, you are redirected to the new page. * Syntax colorization supports more languages (Java, C++, Pascal) * Inline: display of attachments was extended. A Parser now knows which extensions it can handle. * TableOfContents and Include macros now cooperate a bit better. There are still problems with multiple Includes of the same page. * Excluded actions at bottom of page are not displayed any more. * Editor: removed the columns size setting, just using 100% of browser window width (it didn't work because of that anyway). Also removed that "reduce editor size" link at top of editor as you would lose your changes when using it. * Removed the option to choose text smileys instead of images, this made more trouble than it was worth. The text version is still given in ALT attribute. * Moved stuff from contribution/ to MacroMarket page on MoinMoin wiki * Some nasty people try to use a running moin as a proxy (at least they did on moinmaster.wikiwikiweb.de:8000, maybe due to the magic port number). We changed the code to check for that and just return 403 in that case. Moin can not be used as a proxy anyway. * moin.cgi?test was removed in favor of a new buildin test action. It works for all deployments, just use ?action=test. * Sending mail does use tls if server supports it. 3rd party developer notes * Themes should be now sub class of MoinMoin.theme.ThemeBase. Sub classes will get automatically all new improved user interface elements for free. * Theme authors should update their theme for 1.3. Some keys removed from them dict. See ThemeBase class in MoinMoin/theme/__init__.py. * Actions writers should call request.setContentLangauge with the correct language used by the action. This enable themes and other code to use correct direction. * The Formatter interface was changed. Formatters and parsers using the formatter interface have to be adjusted. * started deprecation of Processors: they are still recognized, but implementors should start to rewrite their Processors as Parsers. A processor with the same name as a parser in a pre #! section is currently preferred. This will change in the next release. Deprecation notes * Processors are deprecated, see section above. * Using the cookie (or the login url with ID) only and not setting (or setting and not remembering) your email/password in UserPreferences is DEPRECATED. Those quite unsecure methods will likely be dropped in next moin version. * Operating with acl_enabled = 0 is also DEPRECATED. Due to some other improvements planned, we will have to operate with ACLs enabled ONLY in a future moin version, so this setting will likely be dropped. So clean up your user accounts (see moin_usercheck.py) and switch ACLs on NOW. There are no drawbacks, so you will like it. Having ACLs enabled doesn't mean you really have to USE them on wiki pages... * allow_extended_names = 0 is deprecated (default was/is 1). Future versions will be able to use extended names (aka free links) in any case and the config setting will be removed. * allow_subpages = 0 is deprecated (default was/is 1). Future versions will be able to use subpages in any case and the config setting will be removed. * attachments = {...} - we would like to remove that setting because of several reasons: * when not being extremely careful, this can easily lead to security problems (like when uploading a .php exploit and then executing it by accessing it directly via web server) * makes code more complicated - code that we want to change completely in next version If you need that feature, speak up now and tell us your reasons WHY you need it. Version 1.2.4 (2004-10-23, Revision 1.187) This will probably be the last 1.2.x release as we are soon doing release candidates for 1.3 release (with big internal changes) and are expecting release 1.3 in december 2004. Fixes: * fixed "None" pagename bug in fullsearch/titlesearch * fixed projection CSS usage * the compiled page is removed when a page is deleted, so no ghost page appears after deletion * fixed AbandonedPages day-break problem * fixed [[GetVal(WikiDict,key)]] * the msg box is now outside content div on PageEditor, too * privacy fix for email notifications: you don't see other email addresses in To: any more. mail_from is now also used for To: header field, but we don't really send email to that address. * privacy fix for /MoinEditorBackup pages that were made on previews of pages that were not saved in the end * fix double content div on PageEditor preview Other changes: * workaround for broken Microsoft Internet Explorer, the page editor now stops expanding to the right (e.g. with rightsidebar theme). Nevertheless it is a very good idea to use a non-broken and more secure browser like Mozilla, Firefox or Opera! * from MoinMoin.util.antispam import SecurityPolicy in your moin_config.py will protect your wiki from at least the known spammers. See MoinMoin:AntiSpamGlobalSolution for details. * xmlrpc plugin for usage logging, currently used for antispam accesses * (re-)added configurable meta tags: * html_head_queries = '''\n''' * html_head_posts = '''\n''' * html_head_index = '''\n''' * html_head_normal = '''\n''' * i18n updates/fixes * New UserPreferences switch: you may subscribe to trivial changes (when you want to be notified about ALL changes to pages, even if the author deselected to send notifications). * New AttachList and AttachInfo macros - thanks to Nigel Metheringham and Jacob Cohen. Version 1.2.3 (2004-07-21, Revision 1.186) Fixes: * fixed NameError "UnpicklingError" in user.py * fixed version number in moin.spec * reverts done by bots or leechers There was a bad, old bug that triggered if you did not use ACLs. In that case, moin used some simple (but wrong and incomplete) function to determine what a user (or bot) may do or may not do. The function is now fixed to allow only read and write to anon users, and only delete and revert to known users additionally - and disallow everything else. * avoid creation of unneccessary pages/* directories * removed double content divs in general info and history info pages * fixed wiki xmlrpc getPageHTML * fixed rightsidebar logout URL, also fixed top banner to link to FrontPage * use config.page_front_page and .page_title_index for robots meta tag (whether it uses index,follow or index,nofollow), not hardcoded english page names * ACL security fix for PageEditor, thanks to Dr. Pleger for reporting * default options for new users are same as for anon users Version 1.2.2 (2004-06-06, Revision 1.185) Fixes: * python related: * own copy of difflib removed Until moin 1.2.1 we had our own copy of python 2.2.3's difflib coming with moin. This was to work around some problems with broken older 2.2 python installations. We removed this now because if you have py 2.3, there is even a better difflib coming with python (and that fixes an extremely slow diff calculation happening in some rare cases). So the good news is that when you run python 2.3, you don't need to do anything and it will run great. If you run python 2.2.3, it will mostly work good and you also don't need to do anything. The bad news is that if you run an old and broken 2.2 installation (2.2.1, maybe 2.2.2) you will have to fix it on your own (just copy difflib.py from python 2.2.3 over to your python 2.2.x installation). But better upgrade to python 2.3 (for debian woody, there's a backport), as 2.3 generally runs better and faster than 2.2. * scripts changed to use #!/usr/bin/env python (not /usr/bin/python2.2) * user accounts and ACLs: * we now require the user to specify a password for a new account (you were not able to login without a password anyway) * it is not allowed any more to create user accounts with user names matching config.page_group_regex - please check manually that you do not already have such users existing (like a user named "AdminGroup"): cd data/user ; grep name=.*Group * # there should be no output! * subscription email sending now honours ACLs correctly * markup / rendering / user interface fixes: * fixed merging multiple lines indented by the same amount of blanks * ## comments don't break tables in two parts * added a "remove bookmark" link to RecentChanges * fixed action=titleindex (added \n after each entry) * RSS fixes: * non-ASCII characters should work now * RSS feed (Recentchanges?action=rss_rc) gives UTC timestamps now * removed attribute breaking RSS feed on RecentChanges * better email generation: * if you use python >=2.2.2, we add a Message-ID header to emails * if you use python 2.2.1, there is no email.Header. Instead of crashing (like previous moin 1.2.x releases), we just use the subject "as is" in that case. If it is not ASCII, this is not standards compliant. * If you have >=2.2.2 it will use email.Header to make standards compliant subject lines. * use config.mail_from as sender address when sending "lost my password" emails * file attachments: * fixed for standalone server * attachment URLs (when handled by moin) don't include server name * fixed some wrong &amp; in html src * better themeability: * some entries in dict "d" where only present in header theme calls, some only in footer theme calls. Now almost all is present in both calls. * added some missing "content" divs so sidebar themes look better * fixed some crashes producing backtraces: * no IOError when diffing against deleted page * no backtrace in xml footnote generation * no SystemInfo crash when no editlog exists in new wikis * xmlrpc.getRecentChanges fixed * MoinMoin.util.filesys.rename is now a wrapper around os.rename that fixes os.rename on broken win32 api semantics Other Changes: * saving traffic and load by improved robot meta tag generation: * "noindex,nofollow" on queries and POSTs * "index,follow" on FrontPage and TitleIndex (give robots a chance ;)) * "index,nofollow" on all other pages (hopefully saving lots of senseless requests for page?action=...) * removed config.html_head_queries (was used for same stuff) * added russian i18n (utf-8) * misc. other translation updates / fixes * added rightsidebar theme * TitleIndex now folds case, so "APage" and "anotherPage" are both under letter "A". * added macro/PageHits.py - it calculates the hits each page gets since beginning of logging * Full text and title search do now support multiple search terms - see HelpOnSearching for details * The Formatter interface was changed. Formatter and parser using the formatter interface have to be adjusted. Version 1.2.1 (2004-03-08, Revision 1.184) Fixes: * minimum requirement to run moin 1.2/1.2.1 is python 2.2.2 * not: 2.2(.0), as this does not have True/False * not: 2.2.1, as this does not have email.Header. You maybe can work around that one by: * getting the python 2.2.x (x>=2) /usr/lib/python2.2/email directory * putting it into directory 'x' (whereever you like) * doing a sys.path[0:0] = ['x'] in moin.cgi [or other appropriate place] No guarantee, this is untested. * Twisted: the http headers missed the charset data, fixed * mod_python: fixes for mod_python 2.7 * wiki/data/plugin/__init__.py added - fixes not working plugin modules * plugin processors work now, too * fixed displaying non-existent translations of SiteNavigation in footer * fixed zh-tw iso name (wrong zh_tw -> correct zh-tw) * fixed reversed diffs in RecentChanges RSS * fixed "last change" info in footer (wasn't updated) * fixed event.log missing pagename (and other) information * fixed horizontal line thickness >1 * fixed setup.py running from CVS workdir * fixed crash when doing action=info on first revision of a page * fixed hostname truncation in footer * minor css fixes * fixed clear msg links (they missed quoting, leading to strange page names when you click on some of them) * fixed python colorizer processor * fixed quoting of stats cache filenames * catched "bad marshal data" error when switching python versions Other changes: * updated danish (da) i18n * updated japanese (ja) i18n * added serbian (sr) i18n * added chinese (zh) i18n * added a simple "viewonly" theme based on classic theme - you can use this as default theme, so anonymous users won't get the usual wiki stuff, but a far simpler (and less powerful) user interface. It also displays the navibar at the left side. * added moin.spec for building RPMs * included MoinMoin/i18n/* into distribution archive (nice for translators) * included some stuff under MoinMoin/scripts - xmlrpc-tools and account checking stuff. removed some version control clutter from the dist archive, too. * code colorization was refactored and some new languages (Java, C++, Pascal) where added. * inline: display of attachments was extended. A Parser now knows which extensions it can handle. Version 1.2 (2004-02-20, Revision 1.183) New features: * MoinMoin now requires Python >=2.2.2. You get even better results with Python2.3 (20-30% more speed, sometimes even much more). * by refactoring request processing, we made it possible to run moin under persistent environments: * twisted-web (http://twistedmatrix.com) * httpdmain.py (use moin.py for starting this mini server) * mod_python * FastCGI Of course, CGI is still possible. * wiki pages will be compiled to bytecode now (by default), so no need for slow parsing/formatting on every view ("WASP", see caching_formats) * when using a persistent environment (like twisted) and WASP, you get up to 20x speed - compared to CGI and moin 1.1 * added support for diffs between arbitrary revisions. * removed requirement of the external diff utility * config.auth_http_enabled (defaults to 0) - use this to enable moin getting your authenticated user name from apache (http basic auth, htpasswd) - if you enable this, your basic auth username has to be the same as your wiki username. Should work with CGI, FCGI and maybe even with mod_python. Does not change behaviour of moin under twisted or standalone server. * config.tz_offset = 0.0 sets a default timezone offset (in hours from UTC) * config.cookie_lifetime (int, in hours, default 12) sets the lifetime of the MOIN_ID cookie: == 0 --> cookie will live forever (no matter what user has configured!) > 0 --> cookie will live for n hours (or forever when "remember_me") < 0 --> cookie will live for -n hours (forced, ignore "remember_me"!) * added themeing and some themes (if you improve the existing themes or make nice new ones, please contribute your stuff!). The default theme is set by config.theme_default (and defaults to 'classic'). * now supporting plugin directory for parsers, processors, themes, xmlrpc. * action=info now defaults to showing page revision history again * all actions accessing the logfile (as RecentChanges or history) are now much faster * #refresh processing instruction, config.refresh * config.refresh = (minimum_delay, target_allowed) * minimum delay is the minimum waiting time (in seconds) allowed * target_allowed is either 'internal' or 'external', depending on whether you want to allow only internal redirects or also external ones. For internal redirects, just use the Wiki pagename, for external, use http://... url. * #refresh 3 == refresh this page every 3 seconds * #refresh 5 FrontPage == internal redirect to FrontPage in 5s * #refresh 5 http://google.com/ == redirect to google in 5s Use very carefully! Allowing a low minimum_delay and putting a #refresh on RecentChanges might slow down your wiki significantly, when some people just let their browser refresh and refresh again. Also, it does cause quite some traffic long-term. So better do not use this without good reason! Default is None (switched off). * hide most UserPreferences options before user has logged in, less confusing for new users * "config.page_dict_regex" defines what pages are dictionary definitions Currently dictionaries are used for UserHomePage/MyDict where you can define key:: value pairs that get processed like @DATE@ expansion when saving a page. The 2 "@" will be added to your keys automatically. Please do not use @xxx@ strings on the right side (value), results may vary if you do. You can also access wiki dictionaries by using the internal macro [[GetVal(page,key)]]" - that will go to page "page" and return the value (right side) corresponding to "key". Implementation note: groups are a subset of the dictionary functionality. * standalone server should work now (see server/moin.py), so you don't need to setup apache or twisted for a local personal wiki, you only need python and moin for that now, no additional stuff any more! * if you run your wiki with charset = "utf-8" (the default is still iso8859-1), you might want to have a look at contributions/utf8-pages/ to see if there are already translated system pages for your language. Fixes: * new importPlugin routine (the old one didn't work correctly) * removed 0xA0 characters breaking utf-8 * system page recognition now uses wiki groups (see AllSystemPagesGroup), fixing the long-time broken system page exclusion on TitleIndex. * mostly HTML 4.01 Strict compliant HTML * design is done by CSS now, HTML is semantic markup only * removed target attribute from links, also [^NewWindow] markup - this is a HTML 3.2 feature and not valid in HTML 4.01 * updated TWikiDrawPlugin to 20021003 version, with further modifications including source. It can draw imagemaps now! * fixed email headers and encoding * Changed moin-usercheck to adhere to scripting standards; no proprietary config changes needed any more (added --config); --wikinames is now part of the usage message. * config.umask now defaults to 0770 - if you give world r/w access, ACLs could be rather pointless... Other: * lots of internal code refactoring and optimization * began moving src code documentation to epydoc, see "make epydoc" Known problems: * theme support is neither complete (although covering most important stuff) nor perfect - work on that will continue... * we removed some html from system messages (the boxes at top of page you get after some actions), so it currently looks less nice than before. * html is not completely validating and it is not xhtml - this will be fixed as soon as we have the infrastructure for that (other parser, DOM) * problems with rtl (right-to-left) languages, will be fixed in 1.3 * if you change moin_config or switch themes, moin will still use already cached page content. For the config this can be fixed by touching MoinMoin/version.py (or simply deleting everything in data/cache/Page.py). If you get more annoyed by this than pleased by caching speedup, you can also switch off caching (see docs on caching_formats). Version 1.1 (2003-11-29, Revision 1.178) New features: Configuration: * config.default_lang lets you set a default language for users not having specified language in their browser or UserPreferences * "config.page_category_regex" defines what pages are categories * replaced `config.page_template_ending` by a more flexible setting named `config.page_template_regex` * the same with config.page_form_regex * "config.page_group_regex" defines what pages are group definitions Currently groups are used for "user groups" (see ACLs) and "page groups" (see AllSystemPagesGroup). * robot exclusion from all pages except the standard view action, via the config.ua_spiders regex (reduces server load) * "maxdepth" argument for the TableOfContents macro * config.title1, config.title2, config.page_footer1, config.page_footer2 can now be callables and will be called with the "request" object as a single argument (note that you should accept any keyword arguments in order to be compatible to future changes) * "config.html_pagetitle" allows you to set a specific HTML page title (if not set, it defaults to "config.sitename") * navi_bar / quicklinks can now contain free-form links, i.e. entries of the form "[url linktext]" just like in wiki pages * if a quick link starts with '^', it opens in a new window; help now opens in a new window also * `config.smileys` for user-defined smileys * `config.hosts_deny` to forbid access based on IP address * `config.mail_login` can be set to "user pwd", if you need to use SMTP AUTH * `config.edit_locking` can be set to None (old behaviour, no locking), 'warn ' (warn about concurrent edits, but do not enforce anything), or 'lock ' (strict locking) * optionally showing a license text on editor page, use: config.page_license_enabled = 1 Optionally use these to customize what is shown there: config.page_license_text = "... your text ..." config.page_license_page = "MyLicensePage" See the default values in MoinMoin/config.py for details and override them in moin_config.py, if needed. * `config.shared_intermap` can be a list of filenames (instead of a single string) Authenticaton / Authorization: * added ACL support, written by Gustavo Niemeyer of Conectiva and Thomas Waldmann. See HelpOnAccessControlLists for more infos. You should use MoinMoin/scripts/moin_usercheck.py before activating ACLs or some users with bad or duplicate accounts might get into trouble. * A user account can be disabled using moin_usercheck.py or UserPreferences page. Disabling, but keeping it is good for edit history. * changed security default: deletion only available to known users * support for Basic authentication (Apache style: AUTH_TYPE="Basic", REMOTE_USER="WikiUserName"). If authentication is there, user will be in ACL class "Trusted". * support for username / password login The username / password login will ONLY work, if you define a password. With an empty password, username / password login is not allowed due to security reasons. Passwords are stored encrypted (format similar to Apache SHA) and can also be entered in the UserPreferences form in this format. When requesting login information by email, the password is also sent in this encrypted format (use copy&paste to fill it in the form). ...?action=userform?uid= is still possible, so if you have bookmarks, they will still work). The input field for the ID was dropped. NOTE: using the userid for login purposes is DEPRECATED and might be removed for better security soon. * after logging in, you will get a cookie valid until midnight. The next day, the cookie will expire and you will have to login again. If you don't want this, you can check the "remember me forever" option in UserPreferences. * if the page file is read-only, you get a message (i.e. you can now protect pages against changes if you're the wiki admin). Note: you can do that easier using ACLs. Markup / Macros / Actions: * RandomQuote macro (and even parses Wiki markup now) * `[[Navigation]]` macro for slides and subpage navigation * [[ShowSmileys]] displays ALL smileys, including user-defined ones * the Include macro has new parameters (from, to, sort, items) and is able to include more than one page (via a regex pattern) * `MailTo` macro for adding spam-safe email links to a page * if a fancy link starts with '^' (i.e. if it has the form "[^http:... ...]"), it's opened in a new window * because of that, the NewWindow macro was removed from contrib * "#pragma section-numbers 2" only displays section numbers for headings of level 2 and up (similarly for 3 to 6) * ../SubPageOfParent links User interface: * new fancy diffs * Page creation shows LikePages that already exist * editor shows the current size of the page * editor returns to including page when editing an included page * Visual indication we're on the editor page (new CSS style) * selection to add categories to a page in the editor (use preview button to add more than one category) * if user has a homepage, a backup of save/preview text is saved as a subpage UsersHomePage/MoinEditorBackup * added "revert" link to PageInfo view (which makes DeletePage more safe in public wikis, since you can easily revive deleted pages via revert) * Selection for logged in users (i.e. no bots) to extend the listing of recent changes beyond the default limits * Activated display of context for backlinks search * Subscriber list shown on page info * LikePages shows similar pages (using difflib.get_close_matches) * last edit action is stored into "last-edited" file, and displayed in the page footer * reciprocal footnote linking (definition refers back to reference) * "Ex-/Include system pages" link for title index Note: system/help pages algorithm is still mostly broken. * list items set apart by empty lines are now also set apart visually (by adding the CSS class "gap" to
  1. ) * "save" check for security.Permissions * Added Spanish, Croatian and Danish system texts * Added flag icons for the languages supported in "i18n" * updated help and system pages, more translations, see also AllSystemPagesGroup * there was quite some work done on wiki xmlrpc v1 and v2 - it basically works now. Tools and other changes: * moin-dump: New option "--page" * there are some scripts MoinMoin/scripts/* using wiki xmlrpc for backup and wiki page copying applications * Updated the XSLT parser to work with 4Suite 1.0a1 * more infos in cgi tracebacks * UPDATE.html is a HTML version of MoinMaster:HelpOnUpdating Unfinished or experimental features: * user defined forms * XML export of all data in the wiki * RST parser (you need to install docutils to use this) * SystemAdmin macro Privacy fixes: * do not use / display user's email address in public places SECURITY FIXES: * Removed two cross-site scripting vulnerabilities reported by "office" Bugfixes: * Bugfix for PageList when no arguments are given * Disallow full-text searches with too short search terms * [ 566094 ] TitleIndex now supports grouping by Hangul Syllables * fix for multibyte first char in TitleIndex * Footnotes were not HTML escaped * Numbered code displays are now in a table so that you can cut the code w/o the numbers * Bugfix for wrong mail notifications * Create unique anchors for repeated titles * [ 522246 ] Transparently recode localized messages * [ 685003 ] Using "preview" button when editing can lose data * use gmtime() for time handling * fixed negative gmtime() arguments * [[Include]] accepts relative page names * fixed ||NotInterWiki:||...|| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 1.0 (2002-05-10, Revision 1.159) THIS IS THE LAST RELEASE WITH PYTHON 1.5.2 SUPPORT! If severe bugs should occur, a maintenance release will fix them. New features: * security fix: "allow_xslt" has to be set to 1 in order to enable XSLT processing; note that this defaults to 0 because XSLT is able to insert arbitrary HTML into a wiki * "action=content" for transclusion into static web pages; emits the pure page content, without any , , or tags * "?action=links&mimetype=text/plain" works like MeatBall:LinkDatabase * "Preferred language" and "Quick links" user settings * Added "processor" concept, processors work on the data in "code displays" and are called by a bangpath in the first line of data * Processors: Colorize, CSV (see HelpOnProcessors) * New icons: "{OK}", "(./)", "{X}", "{i}", "{1}", "{2}" and "{}" (see HelpOnSmileys) * FullSearch now displays context information for search hits * DeletePage offers a textentry field for an optional comment * Email notifications are sent in the user's language, if known from the preferences * @PAGE@ is substituted by the name of the current page (useful for template pages) Unfinished features: * user defined forms * XML export of all data in the wiki * RST parser (you need to install docutils to use this) * XMLRPC interface Bugfixes: * Syntax warning with Python 2.2 fixed * Macro-generated pagelinks are no longer added to the list of links * error codes returned by "diff" are reported * fix for attachments on pages with non-USASCII names * correct handling of spaces in attachment filenames and URLs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.11 (2002-03-11, Revision 1.151) Most important new features: file attachments, definition list markup (glossaries), change notification via email, variable substitution when saving pages, edit preview, and improved documentation. Note that the RSS features require a recent PyXML (CVS or 0.7) due to bugs in the namespace handling of xml.sax.saxutils in earlier versions. This is (hopefully) automatically detected on every installation. Statistical features are NOT designed to work with Python 1.5.2 and require Python 2.0 or higher. Overall, MoinMoin 0.11 is not explicitely tested for 1.5.2 compatibility. New features: * XML formatting now (most often) produces well-formed, and, depending on proper layout of the wiki page, valid StyleBook XML * Headers are now automatically numbered, unless you set the config item 'show_section_numbers' to 0 * "#pragma section-numbers off" (or "0") switches that off explicitely, and "on" or "1" enables numbering * Added a "contributions" directory for 3rd party extensions * AttachFile action, contributed by Ken Sugino; note that you have to enable this action because of the possibility of DoS attacks (malicious uploads), by adding this to your moin_config: allowed_actions = ['AttachFile'] * "attachment:" URL scheme allows access to attachments, to get files from other pages use "attachment:WikiName/filename.ext". * New macros: Date(unixtimestamp) and DateTime(unixtimestamp) to display a timestamp according to system/user settings * Variable substitution when a page is saved, note that saving template pages does NOT expand variables. Supported are: @DATE@ Current date in the system's format @TIME@ Current date and time in the user's format @USERNAME@ Just the user's name (or his domain/IP) @USER@ Signature "-- loginname" @SIG@ Dated Signature "-- loginname date time" @MAILTO@ A fancy mailto: link with the user's data * Copied some new emoticons from PikiePikie || {{{ :-? }}} || :-? || tongue.gif || || {{{ :\ }}} || :\ || ohwell.gif || || {{{ >:> }}} || >:> || devil.gif || || {{{ %) }}} || %) || eyes.gif || || {{{ @) }}} || @) || eek.gif || || {{{ |) }}} || |) || tired.gif || || {{{ ;)) }}} || ;)) || lol.gif || * AbandonedPages macro * Added definition list markup: {{{term:: definition}}} * Added email notification features contributed by Daniel Saß * SystemInfo: show "Entries in edit log" * Added "RSS" icon to RecentChanges macro and code to generate a RecentChanges RSS channel, see http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?UnifiedRecentChanges for details * Added config.sitename and config.interwikiname parameter * Better WikiFarm support: * /plugin/macro and /plugin/action can be used to store macros and actions local to a specific wiki instance * config.shared_intermap can contain a pathname to a shared "intermap.txt" file (i.e. one stored outside the datadir) * added `backtick` shortcut for {{{inline literal}}} (has to be enabled by "backtick_meta=1" in the config file); note that `` is then a shorter replacement for '''''' escaping * added inline search fields (at the bottom of each page) * Added preview to the editor, including spell checking * New languages: Chinese (Changzhe Han) and Portuguese (Jorge Godoy), updated French (Lucas Bruand), added Korean (Hye-Shik Chang) and Italian (Lele Gaifax) * New SystemAdmin macro * `[[Anchor(anchorname)]]` macro to insert anchors into a page, and [#anchorname Anchor Links]. * User option to open editor view via a double-click * Added commentary field to editor, recent changes and page info * Page trails (user option) * UserPreferences: checkboxes for double-click edit, page trail, fancy links, emoticons, jump to last page visited, and some other yes/no options * "config.nonexist_qm" is now the default for a user setting * `[[GetText(text)]]` macro loads I18N texts (mainly intended for use on Help pages) * table attributes via "|| ... ||", more details on http://purl.net/wiki/moin/HelpOnTables * PythonFaq interwiki tag and support for $PAGE placeholder * event logging, as the basis for future statistics * "moin-dump" command line tool to create a static copy of the wiki content * "config.external_diff" allows to set an exact path to the command, or change the name to for example "gdiff" if GNU diff is not a native command in your UNIX flavour * `[[PageSize]]` macro * the interwiki name "Self" now always points to the own wiki * config.title1 and config.title2 are inserted into the output right before and after the system title html code (title1 is right after the tag and normally undefined, title2 defaults to the "
    " above the page contents) * Additional link on diff pages to ignore whitespace changes * Subpages (config.allow_subpages, config.page_icons_up) * super^script^, sub,,script,, and __underline__ markup * `[[FootNote]]` macro * many other new config options, see HelpOnConfiguration for a complete list * [[StatsChart(type)]] shows statistical charts (currently defined types: hitcounts, pagesize, useragents) * 'inline:' scheme works like 'attachment:', but tries to inline the content of the attachment into the page; currently knows about "*.py" sources and colorizes them * support for Java applet "TWikiDrawPlugin" via drawing: URL scheme (you need to activate the AttachFile action if you want drawings) * numeric entities (&#nnnnn;) are now optionally NOT escaped, which allows you to insert more characters into a Latin-1 page, especially the Euro symbol * navi_bar is now a list of page names which should be linked on every page * test.cgi is now rolled into moin.cgi, and can be called by adding "?test" to the wiki base URL. Also, as a security feature, the server's environment is only shown for requests local to the web server. Unfinished features: * user defined forms * XML export of all data in the wiki Documentation: * extended the online help ("Help*" pages) * German help pages (thanks to Thomas Waldmann) Bugfixes: * #425857: python Parser bug on the second call * #424917: Caching control * #465499: Two HTTPS problems * #491155: FrontPage hardcoded * Handling of inbound UTF-8 encoded URIs (only with Python >= 2.0) * Fix for subtle changes in "re" of Python 2.2 * User-provided URLs are now never URL-escaped, which allows appending #anchors and using %20 for spaces in InterWiki links ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.10 (2001-10-28, Revision 1.134) This version is still Python 1.5.2 compatible, but it's not extensively tested for that version and some parts of the system might not work there, especially seldom used macros and actions. Bug reports welcome! New features: * "#deprecated" processing instruction * config entry "SecurityPolicy" to allow for customized permissions (see "security.py" for more) * added distutils support * though not extensively tested, the standalone server now does POST requests, i.e. you can save pages; there are still problems with persistent global variables! It only works for Python >= 2.0. * "bang_meta" config variable and "!NotWikiWord" markup * "url_mappings" config variable to dynamically change URL prefixes (especially useful in intranets, when whole trees of externally hosted documents move around) * setting "mail_smarthost" and "mail_from" activates mailing features (sending login data on the UserPreferences page) * very useful for intranet developer wikis, a means to view pydoc documentation, formatted via a XSLT stylesheet, for details see http://purl.net/wiki/python/TeudViewer?module=MoinMoin.macro.TeudView or MoinMoin/macro/TeudView.py * "LocalSiteMap" action by Steve Howell * Added FOLDOC to intermap.txt Bugfixes: * Full config defaults, import MoinMoin now works w/o moin_config.py * Better control over permissions with config.umask * Bugfix for a UNIX time billenium bug (affecting RecentChanges sorting and page diffs) * data paths with directory names containing dots caused problems ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.9 (2001-05-07) New features: * XML page input (pages that start with " when sending the editor * Final(?) fix for japanese wiki names ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.2 (2000-08-26) New features: * When saving, a datestamp saved in the form and that of the file are compared now; so, accidently saving over changes of other people is not possible anymore (saving still needs file locking though, for race conditions) * if the directory "backup" exists in the data dir, pages are saved there before a new version is written to disk * Removed the "Reset" button from EditPage * Added "Reduce editor size" link * Added Latin-1 WikiNames (JürgenHermann ;) * Speeded up RecentChanges by looking up hostnames ONCE while saving * Show at most 14 (distinct) days in RecentChanges * Added icons for common functions, at the top of the page * Added a printing preview (no icons, etc.) * Added bracketed (external) URLs * Added support for quoted URLs ("http://...") * Added styles for :visited links to CSS * Embed image if an URL ends in .gif/.jpg/.png * No markup detection in code sections * Grey background for code sections * Added handling for numbered lists * the edit textarea now grows in width with the browser window (thanks to Sebastian Dauß for that idea) * Added page info (revision history) and viewing of old revisions * Added page diff, and diff links on page info * Added InterWiki support (use "wiki:WikiServer/theirlocalname"; the list of WikiServers is read from "data/intermap.txt") * Added "normal" InterWiki links * Added "action=raw" to send the raw wiki markup as text/plain (e.g. for backup purposes via wget) Bugfixes: * Removed an exception when saving empty pages * Fixed bold nested into emphasis ('''''Bold''' Italic'') ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.1 (2000-07-29) Improvements over PikiPiki 1.62: * Moved configuration to "moin_config.py" * Added "edit_rows" setting * Added navigation bar * Improved HTML formatting * Added timing comment (page created in xx secs) * ISO date and time formats by default * Formatted RecentChanges with HTML tables * Uppercase letters for the index pages * Added PythonPowered logo Bugfixes: * Javadoc comments now get formatted properly in {{{ }}} sections * Remove \r from submitted pages (so we get PORTABLE wiki files) * chmod(0666) eases manual changes to the data dir -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
