MacroMarket - MoinMoin

Macro syntax in newer versions

Note that MoinMoin versions from 1.6.0 and upward use a new syntax for macro calls:

<<Macro(Arguments)>>

instead of the previous

[[Macro(Arguments)]]

To macro authors

Please put your macros (new & old) on a subpage and attach the macro to the subpage (as many have done already) that is then linked from here. You can use the MacroMarketTemplate when creating subpages. Adding a bit of info about the macro - common usage, known limitations and the like - would be great too. This makes it much easier to alter the structure of this page than it is now with many direct attachments. It would, I think, even allow several references, e.g. from different categories.

I would also encourage authors or users to indicate whether they have used a macro with a version other than that it's advertised for, and if there were issues in doing so.

Installation instructions

Make sure, you got the file installed with the correct file name: Of most macros there are different versions available and you might have to delete the version number in the filename: e.g. /MiniPage --> download MiniPage-1.7.1-5.py but install it as MiniPage.py
The best location for macros is to copy them into the /path_to_wiki_instance/data/plugin/macro directory. This method would be guaranteed to survive MoinMoin and Python upgrades.

Alternatively:

You can also copy macros into the Python site-packages/MoinMoin/macro directory. The MoinMoin/macro directory is created inside site-packages during the MoinMoin install. Typical default Python site-packages path on Unix/Linux is /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages. Because you can add paths to the PYTHONPATH environment variable the actual directory could be anywhere.
- Actually, i think that last phrase is not actually true. MoinMoin looks for plugins in two places, the site-packages directory and the wiki's data/ directory. It would be nice to have a third place, but it's not currently the case. -- TheAnarcat 2006-05-30 20:37:53

On Unix/Linux systems you might have to chmod a r on the *.py file, or better yet set the right owner to the *.py files. In most cases it is the owner of the webserver process.

Important hints for developers

The MoinMoin.wikiutil module provides rich functionality for parsing the given args string of a macro: see parseArguments and ParameterParser for that. So there is no need to write your own arg parser in your macro. To build a querystring for calling an action, use makeQueryString.
Please make sure that via your macro no arbitrary HTML code could be injected into a page which could cause cross-site scripting attacks. Use wikiutil.escape or formatter.escapedText to prevent inserting of malicious code.
Moin has an output abstraction built in which enables users to output a page not just in HTML but also in DocBook, Word and other office formats. Output abstraction is done via so called "formatters". So please do not return in your macro just return 'Macro output' but use instead return macro.formatter.text('Macro output') . To output raw HTML: don't do return '<q> Your qoute</q>' please use also the formatter for that nested in a try...except statement: try: return macro.formatter.rawHTML(wikiutil.escape('<q>Your quote</q>')) except: return macro.formatter.escapedText('Your quote')
Make sure that your macro also supports others languages, i.e. macro output could be translated with the built-in getText function by using the underscore. So write text = _('Edit page') and not text = 'Edit page'. From Moin 1.6 onwards you can provide separate translation files for your extensions named LangShortcut.Extensionname.po. For example: de.TaskPlanner.po.

Miscellaneous Macros

Stuff formerly found under contribution/:

Requests

If you are not familiar with Python and/or the MoinMoin code base, but have a need or an idea for a macro, this is the place to ask for it. Someone might find it useful, too, and implement it.

Frequently requested but not (yet) implemented

Section editing:
- Look at ExtensionProposals/SectionEditing and SectionParser. This is a work in progress.
Database integration / interaction:
- see plugins at: /DatabaseMacros and FeatureRequests/DataBaseIntegration and ProcessorMarket/MySQL (these are different features, all related to databses)

Miscellaneous

Is there a macro to include a web page in the wiki page? For exampe like a Include macro inserts another wiki page, this one should insert a web page by link. Something like:

<<Include(http://moinmo.in/, ,)>>

AFAIK there is no such macro. Maybe you could do your own macro and use an iframe to do that.
- I am not familiar with Python, that is why I can't craate any macros. Can any one help me with this?
  - See /IncludeUrlContent and /UrlGrab. However installing this macro, which enables inclusion of foreign HTML/Javascript is a security problem.
  - /IncludeUrlContent includes html code of the page, I need full page, like if it was browser in page. /UrlGrab seems that it is hard to make it work on moin v1.6
    - Indeed, /UrlGrab does not work on v1.6. Please either wait till I fix it (allow 1 week), or if anybody wants to do it, please contact me -- PascalBauermeister 2008-05-29 10:13:26
    - OK I will wait. Just, please, do not forget about it.
  - See also /IncludePage-1.7 now where you can include external pages, interwiki pages, locale pages with an iframe.
  - Thank you very much, this /IncludePage-1.7 macro seems to be exactly what I was looking for.
Using the linking functions of moinmoin be able to post comments to other pages through a link or by itself, such as [url label "comment"] or [url "comment"] and then the comments are displayed on both pages, or only on the page it is written and then on the reciving page with a macro.
I'd like to have a macro to find all pages created or modified by a user... it'd be invoked like !UserContributions(!UserName) or something like that and show a list of pages... maybe an optional argument to be able to sort the list alphabetically/chronologically by last modification/by total number of lines contributed/etc... you might use it in your WikiHomePage -- MarianoAbsatz 2007-07-27 04:53:17
- 1 -- EricVeirasGalisson 2007-07-31 10:02:28
Probably the wrong place to ask, but: -- EvanLanglois
1. Can you use a macro inside a processor block? Meaning, will the macro be done before the processor sees it, like a preprocessor. This could be useful for using a macro to fetch dynamic content to be processed by something else, or is there a preferred way to do this?
2. Will macros such as macro/IncVar fetch data based on the raw source, or will other macros or processors be applied to the page before it looks at it? Basically looking for ways to fetch content dynamically and hopefully format it as something other than a table.
I would like to see a macro like PageHits.py that presents the total of hits on the wikisite. (all pagehits cumulated). Most beautiful would be that it can be presented in the header of all pages in the wiki. Something like "This wikisite had hitscounter been read".
- UnifiedRecentChanges ("URC")
- There's code for an XML-PRC based macro, which is okay.
  - But much better is the URC listed in the ProcessorMarket, which is RSS based, and uses threading to pull down changes. -- LionKimbro
some easy way to upload media files, images, etc, and reference them systematically, organise them by date/time/etc.
tables of thumbnails of images, possibly with captions
It would be nice if you could list images as bullet items and the use the RandomQuote macro to select one and display it. Currently this doesn't work, it just returns the URL. -- AdamShand
I would suggest two macros wich would be useful to write information based on the date.

ex: BEFORE('27/02/2002','Yeah, it will be by birthday in few weeks')
ex: AFTER('27/02/2002','Gasp, I'm again one year older')

Probably, the harder will be to deal with date format (I've been told that some strange countries wouldn't use the same format for dates than me)
If someone does this, then as [[BETWEEN('','somedate',...)]] or even [[CONDITION('someexpr',...]] please. -- jh
ISO 8601 is meant for fixing up date format confusion, please use it. E.g. right now is 2002-06-24T19:14 01:00 (aka 2002-06-24T18:14Z).

AliasOfThisPage

In my attempt to adapt MoinMoin to an author kit for TopicMap, I am constantly in need of the AliasOfThisPage feature, which, To create a WikiName which point to the current page. Which is also listed in TitleIndex as well as WordIndex.

If you want alias of existing page, just create the alias, place #redirect there, and point it to existing page. See HelpOnProcessingInstructions.

Macro for Graphs in Wiki

Is there a way of creating graphs, charts and stuff like that in Wiki? That would really help a lot of people out. Now I'm making images out of them, but that's not really working for me.
I'm not sure this is the right place to put this... if so, my apologies.

See WikiVisualization.

Macro for integrating mail archives

It would be very useful to have a archive of a mailing list integrated in the wiki. A tool which converts each email sent to the list to a wiki page... and a macro which displays the first few lines of of all email-pages (including author and subject). Or is there an other, easier way to achieve this?

Yes. Use an existing mail archiver, and link to it.

There are lots of ways in which it would be useful to have your email archives integrated with your wiki, and more of them as the functionality of the wiki expands. When you WikiParse your mail archives, you get BackLinks into the wiki for free. You can refer to InterWiki links in E-mail to your list, and in the archives the hyperlinking will be handled for you. Etc., etc. I work in an environment where we use a PurpleWiki and a copy of MailMan patched to WikiParse the archives, and it's just the cat's pajamas. Even better (but granted, still a hack), one of our developers wrote a simple filter for Pine that dereferences WikiWords and other wiki markup in his outgoing messages, and turns them into FreeLinks. This makes them helpful to people with plain text email, but when they are parsed and end up in the mail archives, they still appear as clickable hyperlinks. Very cool stuff. So anyway, it seems to me that the answer immediately above is not a very useful one, but the right way to solve this problem isn't really a Macro, either; it's probably a patch to your mail archiver (being Python, MailMan seems like a natural choice.) Perhaps a MailManIntegration node should be created? --JoeBlaylock

macro for caching images

A macro for caching images and links automatically, ie something like [[CacheImage:http://image.url]] would automatically download the image, save it in the attachments directory, and display it on page. Similar for [[CacheLink:http://link.url]] to cache links. This would collapse the download/save/attach/link steps for attaching copies of online resources into one.

PageOf macro and TOC markup

To make navigation of book style organization of wikipages, a PageOf macro will take a TOC page which contain a section of wikinames organized in tree structure and output the prev, up, toc, next links.

For example, the TOC page look like:

    Title
     by
    authors
    ....
    <TOC>
    * [[Chapter 0]] The first chapter
    ** [[Section 0]] The first section of Chapter
    * [[Chapter 1]] Chapter 1
    ....
    </TOC>
     ....

The macro in Section 0 will generate :

TOC page as TOC, Chapter 0 as up and prev, Chapter 1 as next.

These macros can be inserted to pages in templates, by hand and by action of the TOC page.

RandomPage macro

How about a new RandomPage macro which does not include UnderlayPages? UnderlayPages contains the help files and their l10n versions only.

subversion integration

an integration of subversion archives was requested on the mailing list .

/SubVersion

Table of contents - full section numbers

Currently, using show_section_numbers configuration setting, gives nice section numbers for headings e.g. "5.1.2 Section Title". However, the table of contents is still numbered with separate lists, so there is no way to show the full section number in the table of contents.
I have modified my (1.5, intranet) install to show full section numbers in the html table of contents. Before I post it, I'll need to clean up my hard-coded changes to check the relevant configuration settings. Interested in this change? Let me know. --StuartHarding

Encryption of parts of a page

I would like to be able to store encrypted text within the normal text of a page, e.g. for storing passwords, PINs etc. The idea is to store information that does not need encryption (e.g. a web address, a user name, a bank account number) on the same page as sensitive information that should be encrypted. e.g.

Bank: Some Bank
Address: Some Street 55
Account No: 08514711
PIN: <some encrypted text or link to it>

En/decryption should use a user supplied password and should be reasonably secure. I imagine the syntax as something like this:

<<<encrypt(password, some text)>>>

which will then add a link to the page that asks for a password and then tries to use this password to decrypt the content. Of course this is only really usefull in a personal wiki that is not accessible remotely.

Suggestion Instead of making the wiki do the encryption, do it on your local machine and paste the encrypted text to the wiki. E.G. pipe your PIN through GPG and paste the results to your wiki. To get your pin back, copy from wiki and pipe to GPG again.

Possible Solution I just posted https://github.com/lorrin/moinmoin-client-crypt which tackles this use-case. Installation & MoinMoin integration isn't polished yet.

Easy-append to a page

This macro should generate a text box and a button. Clicking the button causes the contents of the text box to be appended to the page. TWiki's %COMMENT% macro works this way.

Problems with MacrosforMoinx

Reorganisation of this page

We want to solve two problems:

people have problems finding the right plugin (solution: categories)
people have problems to find what plugins they actually can install with no risk of data loss (solution: table)

DONE

I started to split up this page into seperate sub-pages. See /DatabaseMacros and /WikiInfoMacros for examples. When the component pages are complete we could then [[Include()]] them onto this page. Anyone want to help? Good idea? Bad idea? Other categories that I thought of would be /ImageMacros and /NavigationMacros, and then of course the /ImpossibleToClassifyMacros There is a problem with this approach in that the location of attachments and descriptive pages/sub-pages are scattered all over the wiki and web. Having macro descriptions split up onto seperate pages is not going to help. Though I really think this categorization would really help new users to find macros useful to them. -- TimCera 2006-02-02 14:33:42

I must admit I did not follow the structure after my own suggestions. I think good ideas. I think with the attachments we should follow one standard all over the wiki. So discussing this only here would be a fault. Instead I suggest we do the discussion on a page MarketDiscussion and link from all market pages to that page. -- ThiloPfennig 2006-10-22 13:56:46

Moved macros

I just finished cleaning up the MacroMarket by moving all of the macros/attachments to their own subpage. If you notice anything broken, please let me know on my home page. If you are looking for a macro that is no longer attached to this page, try going to MacroMarket/NameOfMacroYouAreLookingFor. -- JordanCronin 2008-02-01 19:46:10

OPEN

it would be nice to have what plugins work on what versions. I also. Do all plugins under 1.3 do not work under 1.5 or do 1.5 plugins not work under 1.3? I think this kind od overview should be made as a table. I also would like to see plugins sorted by:
- official macro (part of distribution
- tested macro (this one is working good)
- untested macro (only for developers)
- maybe also display how active one plugin is developed.
