Release new version (3.2.1) of NacoWiki.

The following changes are included:

  • Added document properties
  • Added opts.yaml
  • API improvements
  • Bug fixes and UI improvements
  • Additional Plugins:
    • Versions
    • AutoTag
    • Albatros : Blog site generator (similar to Pelican).

Most of the changes are to support the new plugins.

Versions

Now, NacoWiki keeps track of previous versions of articles. This can be disabled on a per directory basis by creating an opts.yaml and adding the disable-props: true entry.

AutoTag

When an article is save it will create tags automatically based on a tagcloud.md file containing a list of tagging words. This is enabled only if there is a tagcloud.md file in the sub-directory or any parent sub-directory.

Albatros

This is a Blog site generator inspired by Pelican. It was mainly written to migrate this web site from Pelican which uses a Python based markdown implementation to the same markdown implementation used in NacoWiki. The reason being that I use NacoWiki to edit this Blog, so it makes sense to use the same code to preview and generate the static web site.

It uses a slightly modified version of the template I was using for this website, so the change should be transparent to most peope.
