Wiki Parser Revamp

This was done as part of the move to Tiki-Flavored Markdown


Reasons to revamp (rewrite?) wiki parser

New Ideas

  • Recent work with Jison has proven very stable and would work great at creating a Javascript parser for GUI if ever needed.
  • The same parser from Jison could be used to create a php version of the same parse

Idea on how we could test for wiki parser regressions

From one Tiki version to another, there can be some slight changes in behavior. So a syntax used in Tiki3 will have a slightly different output in Tiki9. Sometimes, this is intentional, sometimes it is not. Ideally, we would have a systematic way to test and find this, using real World data.

  • Export HTML version of all wiki pages from *.tiki.org
  • Upgrade to next version of Tiki
  • Export HTML version of all wiki pages of the same site
  • Compare the two and analyze the differences


The same idea could be used to compare the current parser with the Jison Parser

Keywords

The following is a list of keywords that should serve as hubs for navigation within the Tiki development and should correspond to documentation keywords.

Each feature in Tiki has a wiki page which regroups all the bugs, requests for enhancements, etc. It is somewhat a form of wiki-based project management. You can also express your interest in a feature by adding it to your profile. You can also try out the Dynamic filter.
