News for ikiwiki 3.20091017:
To take advantage of significant performance improvements, all wikis need to be rebuilt on upgrade to this version. If you listed your wiki in /etc/ikiwiki/wikilist this will be done automatically when the Debian package is upgraded. Or use ikiwiki-mass-rebuild to force a rebuild.
ikiwiki 3.20091017 released with these changes
- Added support framework for multiple types of dependencies, including dependncies that are only affected by page precence or link changes.
- Rebuild wikis on upgrade to this version to get improved dependency info.
- pagecount, calendar, postsparkline, progress: Use a presence dependency, which makes these directives much less expensive to use, since page edits will no longer trigger an unnecessary update.
- map: Use a presence dependency unless show= is specified. This makes maps efficient enough that they can be used on sidebars!
- inline: Use a presence dependency in quick mode.
- brokenlinks: Use a link dependency. This makes it much more efficient, only updating when really necessary.
- orphans, pagestats: Use a combination of presence and link dependencies. This makes them more efficient. It also fixes a longstanding bug, where if only a small set of pages were considered by orphans/pagestats, changes to links on other pages failed to cause an update.
- linkmap: Use a combination of presence and link dependencies. This makes the map be regenerated much less frequently in many cases, so larger maps are more practical to use now.
- Plugins providing PageSpec
match\_*
functions should pass additional influence information when creating result objects. This allows correctly handling many more complicated dependencies. - API change:
pagespec\_match\_list
has completly changed its interface. The old interface will be removed soon, and a warning will be printed if any plugins try to use it. - Transitive dependencies are now correctly supported.
- ikiwiki-calendar: New command automates creation of archive pages using the calendar plugin.
- calendar: Fix midnight rebuild trigger of calendars with explicit month/year.
- calendar: Fix bug in next/previous year/month links, which sometimes linked to an archive page from the wrong year, or were missing.
- git: --getctime will now follow renames back to the original creation of a file.
- calendar: Fix CSS for year calendar to match the plugin documentation.
- Added minimal default CSS for calendar plugin, just highlighting the current day.
- inline: Optimize generation of archives, etc by not getting inlined page content if the template does not use it.
