VersionLinkPlugin

[Development discussions in VersionLinkPluginDev]

This plugin makes it easy to link to a VERSION of an attached file vs. linking to the latest version (what ATTACHURLPATH does). I basically pinched the code that viewfile.pm uses to let you download versions of files from RCS.

Syntax Rules

%VERSIONLINK{ filename , version }%

Example: %VERSIONLINK{foo.c,1.1}%

VersionLinkPlugin Settings

Plugin settings are stored as preferences variables. To reference a plugin setting write %<plugin>_<setting>%, i.e. %INTERWIKIPLUGIN_SHORTDESCRIPTION%

  • One line description, is shown in the TextFormattingRules topic:
    • Set SHORTDESCRIPTION = This plugin makes it easy to link to a VERSION of an attached file vs. linking to the latest version.

  • Debug plugin: (See output in data/debug.txt)
    • Set DEBUG = 0

Plugin Installation Instructions
