Instiki now runs on the Rails 2.3.0 Candidate Release.
Among other improvements, this means that it now
automagically selects between WEBrick and Mongrel.
Just run
./instiki --daemon
By default, Rails will cache
example.com/mywiki/show/SomePage
and
www.example.com/mywiki/show/SomePage
In Instiki, this just leads to stale cached pages and frustration.
Fix that behaviour.
Make session secret persist across restarts. (Been meaning to do this for
a while: no more "stale cookie" warnings fter restarting the server.
Avoid cookie overflow in session store.
Make remove_orphaned_pages work in a proxied situation.
Also, "fix" a busted functional test. I'm not happy with
this one. We're enforcing plain-text titles (which, I think,
is the correct thing to do), but sending them as type="html",
which then requires double-encoding.
Sam Ruby has been doing a bang-up job fixing the bugs in REXML.
Who knows when these improvements will trickle down to vendor distributions of Ruby.
In the meantime, let's bundle the latest version of REXML with Instiki.
We check the version number of the bundled REXML against that of the System REXML, and use whichever is later.
Upgraded to Rails 2.0.2, except that we maintain
vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/routing.rb
from Rail 1.2.6 (at least for now), so that Routes don't change. We still
get to enjoy Rails's many new features.
Also fixed a bug in Chunk-handling: disable WikiWord processing in tags (for real this time).
This works fine with the default Webrick. But, if you're running under Mongrel (say), you probably
want to customize this in config/environments/production.rb .
