+
+How about doing the index stuff only on the output side? (Or does the latter patch do it? I haven't tried them.) That is, render every `foo.type` for the rendered types (mdwn etc.) as `foo/index.html`, generating links to `foo/` instead of `foo.html`, but not earlier than the point where the .html as presently appended to the page name. Then you just flip a build time option on an existing wiki without any changes to that, and the pages appear elsewhere. The `index.type` files might be left out of this scheme, though (and the top-level one, of course, has to). --[[tuomov]]
+
+> Well, get around to wasting time on it after all, and [here's the patch](http://iki.fi/tuomov/use_dirs.diff). The `-use_dirs` option will cause everything to be rendered inside directories. There may still be some problems with it, that need looking into (it doesn't e.g. check for conflicts between foo/index.mdwn and foo.mdwn), but seems to work well enough for me... The patch also improves, I think, the parentlinks code a little, as it uses generic routines to actually find the target location now. The only places where the `use_dirs` option is used is `htmlpage`, in fact, although other specific kludges needed to be removed from other points in the code.
+
+>> FWIW, [use_dirs.diff](http://iki.fi/tuomov/use_dirs.diff) applies cleanly, and works well for me. Given that it makes this behaviour optional, how about merging it? I have some follow-up patches which I'm sitting on for now. ;-) -- Ben
+
+>>> How do you apply a patch created by svn diff? I've been curious about this for a long time. The use_dirs patch looks OK but I'd like to play with it. --Ethan
+
+>>>> Just do `svn co svn://ikiwiki.kitenet.net/ikiwiki/trunk ikiwiki` then `cd ikiwiki && patch -p0 <use_dirs.diff`. :-) Same would work with a tarball as well.
+
+>>>>> Sorry, I'm dumb. I'm so used to doing -p1 that doing -p0 never occurred to me; I thought the patch format generated by svn diff was just "wrong". --Ethan
+
+----
+
+First pass over Tumov's patch -- which doesn't cleanly apply anymore, so
+I'll attach an updated and modified version below. --[[Joey]]
+
+* As we discussed in email, this will break handling of `foo/index.mdwn`
+ pages. Needs to be changed to generate `foo/index/index.html` for such
+ pages (though not for the toplevel `index`).
+
+ >> Can someone elaborate on this? What's broken about it? Will pages
+ >> foo/index/index.html include foo/index in their parentlinks? --Ethan
+
+ >>> Presently the patch does not move `foo/index.type` as `foo/index/index.html`, but renders
+ >>> it as `foo/index.html`, not because I particularly want that (except for the top-level one, of
+ >>> course), but because it could be done :). This, however, conflicts with a `foo.mdwn`
+ >>> rendered as `foo/index.html`. The easiest and cleanest way to fix this, is to simply

+

+
+ >>>>> No, it doesn't. I originally also was after that, but after discussing the

+
+ >>>>>> I support your decision, but now this wiki page serves two different patches :).

+
+* This does make the resulting wikis much less browsable directly on the
+ filesystem, since `dir` to `dir/index.html` conversion is only handled by web
+ servers and so you end up browsing to a directory index all the time.
+ Wouldn't it be better to make the links themselves include the index.html?
+ (Although that would mean that [[bugs/broken_parentlinks]] would not be
+ fixed en passant by this patch..)
+
+ > Yes, the sites are not that browsable on the FS (I blame the browsers
+ > for being stupid!), but linking to the directory produces so much

+

+

+ >>> copy in the present manner, while rendering the Web copy under

+ >>> unless you also want to serve the same copy over the Web, which I
+ >>> doubt. --[[tuomov]]
+
+* Some of the generated links are missing the trailing / , which is
+ innefficient since it leads to a http redirect when clicking on that
+ link. Seems to be limited to ".." links, and possibly only to
+ parentlinks. (Already fixed it for "." links.)
+
+ > The solution seems to be to add to `urlto` the following snippet,
+ > which might also help with the next point. (Sorry, no updated patch

+
+ if ( !length $to ) {
+ return baseurl($from);
+ }
+
+ >> Indeed, this brings the number of abs2rels closer to par, as well
+ >> as fixing the .. links. --[[Joey]]
+
+* It calles abs2rel about 16% more often with the patch, which makes it
+ a bit slower, since abs2rel is not very efficient. (This omits abs2rel
+ calls that might be memoized away already.) This seems to be due to one
+ extra abs2rel for the toplevel wiki page due to the nicely cleaned up code
+ in `parentlinks` -- so I'm not really complaining.. Especially since the
+ patch adds a new nice memoizable `urlto`.
+* The rss page name generation code seems unnecesarily roundabout, I'm sure
+ that can be cleaned up somehow, perhaps by making `htmlpage` more
+ generic.
+
+ > Something like `targetpage(basename, extension)`?
+
+ >> Yes exactly. It might also be possible to remove htmlpage from the
+ >> plugin interface entirely (in favour of urlto), which would be a
+ >> good time to make such a changes. Not required to accept this patch
+ >> though.
+
+ >>> [...] in fact, all uses of htmlpage in the plugins are used to
+ >>> construct an absolute address: the absolute url in most cases, so an `absurl`
+ >>> call could be added to be used instead of htmlpage
+ >>> --[[tuomov]]
+
+ >>>> Or it could use urlto("index", $page) instead. --[[Joey]]
+
+* > and something else in the
+ > aggregate plugin (above), that I also think isn't what's wanted:
+ > aren't `foo.html` pages also "rendered", so that they get moved as `foo/index.html`?
+ > --[[tuomov]]
+
+ >> Yes, the aggregate plugin will save the files as foo.html in the
+ >> sourcedir, and that will result in foo/index.html in the web site, same
+ >> as any other page. --[[Joey]]
+
+* `img.pm` makes some assumptions about name of the page that will be
+ linking to the image, which are probably broken.
+
+* The changes to htmlpage's behavior probably call for the plugin
+ interface version number to be changed.
+
+Updated version of Tumov's patch (with the changes we've discussed
+including fixes for some of the plugins) follows:
