Hi,
I have prepared a patch based on the earlier discussion. Before I send
it through to Andi, I want to check a couple of things.
The key changes are,
- metadata created via the renderer will default to transient.
- metadata created by p_set_metadata() will default to persistent.
- PARSER_METADATA_RENDER event wrapped around metadata rendering
process, the metadata renderer object is the event data.
Conversion from old metadata to the new format is automatic - it'll
occur when the metadata is first read. The conversion process assumes
all but the following keys are persistent:
- title
- description abstract
- description tableofcontents
- relation haspart
- relation references
- date valid
(These are all the keys that were cleared in the metadata renderer's
document_start method)
There is no need to change any current code, either in DokuWiki or in
plugins/templates - if the default behaviour is satisfactory.
Some questions:
- Are there any other keys in current metadata which should be
considered transient?
- There are now four metadata functions, one new one, p_read_metadata,
may not belong in parserutils.php. Should there be a metadata.php?
- should the new event use full metadata array (current & persistent)
rather than the renderer object?
Cheers,
Chris
