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
On Webs with file uploads enabled, uploaded files were stored
(in version 0.16.1 and earlier) in the public/ directory.
This was a security threat. A miscreant could upload a .html file.
When a user clicked on the link to the file, it was opened (unsanitized)
in the browser.
As of version 0.16.2, uploaded files are stored in the webs/
directory. Now, when the user clicks on the link, the file is sent
with the
Content-Disposition: attachment
header set, which causes the file to be downloaded, rather than opened
in the browser. As always, files downloaded from the internets should be
treated with caution. At least, this way, they are not aoutomatically
opened in the browser.
To move your existing uploaded files to the new location, do a
rake upgrade_instiki
When a Web uses one of the Markdown Text Filters, and you export
all the pages as a zip file, you'd like the MathML and SVG to
render when the pages are viewed locally. This means saving them
with a .xhtml extension. Users of non-XHTML-capable browsers or
Textile users should still get .html files.
WikiWord (and the like) could wreak havoc in equations. Protect them
(the way <a>, <pre> and <code> blocks are protected).
For some reason, this doesn't seem to work in inline equations.
Maruku is doing something funny there ... => one failing Unit Test.
Some more tests from Clint Ruoho. The main branch of Instiki (and, I guess,
the old sanitizer) are vulnerable.
Also: under Ruby 1.8.x, CGI.unescapeHTML screws up horribly decoding NCRs
which represent high-bit ASCII characters. UTF-8 agrees with 7-bit ASCII,
but CGI.unescapeHTML doesn't seem to know that they disagree for i>127.
CMyApp is a WikiWord (at least, on other Wiki systems, like TWiki).
Should allow that here
Also, choose a more obscure name for the thread-local variable tracking
included chunks.
Another request from the old (and apparently defunct) Instiki Bug Tracker:
allow single letter WikiLinks, e.g. "[[a]]". Requested by a Japanese user.
Fixed.
In the Stylesheet Tweaks, the owner of a Web can specify an @import rule
to pull in CSS styles form an external file. This worked in the "show"
view, but was broken in the "published" view.
Fixed.
Also, update a functional test to match Revision 313.
Previously,
<nowiki>[[!include foo]]</nowiki>
would produce some garbage, like
chunk18226682includechunk
instead of the desired rendered text,
[[!include foo]]
Fixed.
Update dnsbl_check plugin to latest version.
Update Maruku to latest version.
In the wiki_controller, only apply the dnsbl_check before_filter
to the :edit, :new, and :save actions, instead of all actions.
This makes mundane "show" requests faster, but does not
compromise spam-fighting ability.
The html5lib sanitizer does not necessarily produce well-formed output.
Take some "bad" input, wrap it in a <nowiki> tag and -- bingo! -- you get
ill-formed output.
Fixed. (Though, probably, one should fix the html5lib sanitizer, instead.)
Updated to Rails 2.2.2.
Added a couple more Ruby 1.9 fixes, but that's pretty much at a standstill,
until one gets Maruku and HTML5lib working right under Ruby 1.9.
Fix Session CookieOverflow bug when rescuing an InstikiValidation error.
Fix some random things which will cause problems with Ruby 1.9. (Plenty
more where those came from.)
Implement amsthm-like Theorem environments with Maruku.
Support is based on Maruku "div"s with special class-names.
Classes
num_*
produce numbered environments, and
un_*
produce un-numbered environments, where * is one of
theorem (for Theorem)
lemma (for Lemma)
prop (for Proposition)
cor (for Corollary)
def (for Definition)
example (for Example)
remark (for Remark)
note (for Note)
In addition, the class
proof
produces a Proof environment.
The LaTeX export works as expected, and these also work in the S5 view.
Bumped version number.
IE7+MathPlayer do *not* like the charset parameter to be set in the
Content-Type header. Forcing Rails to omit that parameter is surprisingly
difficult.
The new sanitizer seems to work well (cuts the time required
to produce the Instiki Atom feed in half). Our strategy is to
use HTML5lib for <nowiki> content, but to use the new sanitizer
for content that has been processed by Maruku (and hence is
well-formed).
The one broken unit test won't affect us (since it dealt with
very malformed HTML).
Start work (which may not pan out) on a new sanitizer. Right now, it passes
all but 1 of the HTML5lib Sanitizer's unit tests. But it doesn't do much
of anything to ensure well-formedness. This is not an issue for Maruku-processed
content, but it is a concern for <nowiki> blocks.
(One solution would be to use the HTML5lib parser on <nowiki> blocks.)
In any case, this baby is 3 times as fast as the HTML5lib sanitizer.
Previously, used a regexp to find and convert named entities in the content.
Now use a more efficient algorithm.
Similar tweak for converting NCRs before checking whether text is valid utf-8.
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.
