Small todo list
===============

A list of features I want to implement in ``Pylowiki <pylowiki>``\ \_

.. contents::

Create on a deleted page
========================

Create on a deleted page should set the deleted flag to false and create
a new revision based on the create textarea on submit.

Sortable page lists
===================

give the ability to sort by:

-  active (sorted by edited date ascending)
-  newest (sorted by page creation date ascending?)
-  oldest (sorted by page creation date descending?)
-  alphabet (ascending and descending)
-  on tab change account to accounts or users.

Embed flash videos
==================

We need to be able to embed flash videos much like the images
declaration.

**Update:** We have added the youtube directive for video embedding.

.. youtube:: xK_UX9ZuO1w

Ajax edit submissions
=====================

Code each edit form to use ajax to send data to the webserver. The user
interactions will be more smooth without page reloads.

Upload attachments
==================

**UPDATE:** We have implemented a very quick and dirty file upload
attachment feature. I would like to revisit this feature to make it more
robust…

**The barf pyramid project has a very nice flat file and database
system!**

Attachments themselves should not be stored in the database, only the
meta data and a pointer to a flat file system.

Applecore vaults uses oracle for meta data on models and drawings.

64 dirs with 64 dirs in each, maybe 20 or so files in each dir would
grant space for 81,920 files in the wiki.

The data would be tar’d up during regular db backups. The DB would house
all the meta data about the files.

vault meta table:

int id str location (/12/23/03) 12th dir, 23 dir, 03 file str file_type
(pdf, csv, jpg, png, mp3) str save_name (wedding.jpg) str description
int related page

Should pages have tags?
=======================

-  Should pages have tags?
-  How would categories or tags be useful?
-  Do people use tags for navigation?

Canned themes
=============

Create a few canned themes so show off the design possibilities of
Pylowiki.

I plan to place pylowiki into the fluid 960 css framework to motivate
others as well as myself into creating custom themes/skins

**Status:** I created an entry point for custom CSS sheets in the
base.mako custom-style.css … Pylowiki was placed into the fluid 960 css
framework! AN ENTRY POINT FOR THEMES HAS BEEN BUILT AND NOW WE HAVE 2
THEMES!

-  default theme
-  ChaosTheory (foxhop.net is using this one)

How to Pylowiki
===============

Create a few articles to explain how to:

-  Download
-  Install
-  Configure
-  Deploy
-  Update
-  Extend

Pylowiki

Email
=====

Forgot password email logic…

**COMPLETED**

Authentication options
======================

-  Create module for ldap / active directory authentication (asset
   management system implemented LDAP auth)
-  Create module for openid authentication
-  Create module for facebook auth (http://four2go.gumyum.com)
-  Create module for twitter auth
-  Create a way for users to link multiple auth methods to access the
   same pylowiki account/user

See!? We now have page comments! It was pretty simple to create the
logic. Most of the work was already in place for the core wiki
application!

Very nice looking site. I wish I could comment inline, ala hgbook.

Regarding tags: full-text search will be *much* more useful. I’m not
sure how you might pull that off though, other than providing hooks for
lucene.

Hierarchy, on the other hand, is completely necessary, both for
organizing large knowledge bases, and for very large teams that require
privacy in certain cases. This is assuming that you’re willing to allow
Access Control Lists in Pylowiki. Mediawiki objects to this in
prinicple.

------------------------------

Full text search is supported for mysql only. give it a try (search kvm,
libvirt,sample or todo)

At this point we only have authed users and guests. No other acls yet.

I’m excited to finally get some support with ideas! Please branch
Pylowiki on bitbucket and I’ll merge any cool patches you might build.
