=================
django-markupwiki
=================

An implementation of simple markup-agnostic wiki for Django.

markupwiki does not aim to be a full fledged replacement to mediawiki or other
large packages, but instead to provide the most commonly used subset of
functionality.  Pages can be edited, locked, and deleted.  Revisions can be
viewed, reverted, and compared.  If you need much more than that markupwiki
might not be for you.

Requirements
============

django-markupwiki depends on django >= 1.2a, django-markupfield >= 1.0.0a2 and
libraries for whichever markup options you wish to include.


Usage
=====

Like any django application, the first step when using django-markupwiki is
to add ``markupwiki`` to your ``INSTALLED_APPS``.

urls
----

To use django-markupwiki's urls you should also add a line like::

    url(r'^wiki/', include('markupwiki.urls')),

to your urlconf.

This will make the following views available (assuming the defined root is /wiki/):

/wiki/rss/
    RSS feed of latest changes to wiki
/wiki/*article*/
    view the latest version of an article
/wiki/*article*/rss/
    RSS feed of changes to an article
/wiki/*article*/edit/
    edit (or create) an article
/wiki/*article*/history/
    history view for an article
/wiki/*article*/history/*revision*/
    view a specific version of an article
/wiki/*article*/diff/
    compare a two revisions of an article


article names
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*article* in all of the above URLs is the name of an article: which is basically any string with limited restrictions.  There are a few basic guidelines:

* Spaces in the URL will automatically be converted to underscores.
* When displaying an article, anything before a / will be linked to an article with that name
    (eg. /wiki/category/article/ will have a link in the header to /wiki/category/)


interwiki links
---------------

While you are free to use whatever markup you desire, most markup types (ReST, markdown, etc) do not include a standard syntax for interwiki links.  As a result all markup types are augmented with a post-processor that adds support for interwiki links in the [[link text|link]] format.

[[link text|page]] produces a link to an article named 'page' with the text before the | as the anchor.

[[page]] produces a link to an article named 'page' with using the page name as the anchor.

settings
--------

django-markupwiki provides a number of optional settings that you may wish to use
to customize the behavior.

``MARKUPWIKI_WRITE_LOCK_SECONDS``
    number of seconds that a user can hold a write lock (default: 300)
``MARKUPWIKI_CREATE_MISSING_ARTICLES``
    if True when attempting to go to an article that doesn't exist, user will be redirected to the /edit/ page.  If False user will get a 404. (default: True)
``MARKUPWIKI_DEFAULT_MARKUP_TYPE``
    default markup type to use (default: markdown)
``MARKUPWIKI_MARKUP_TYPE_EDITABLE``
    if False user won't have option to change markup type (default: True)
``MARKUPWIKI_MARKUP_TYPES``
    a tuple of string and callable pairs the callable is used to 'render' a markup type.  

Example::

    import markdown
    from docutils.core import publish_parts

    def render_rest(markup):
        parts = publish_parts(source=markup, writer_name="html4css1")
        return parts["fragment"]

    MARKUPWIKI_MARKUP_TYPES = (
        ('markdown', markdown.markdown),
        ('ReST', render_rest)
    )

Defaults to ``django-markupfield``'s detected markup types.
