NAME
editmoin - Edit MoinMoin wiki pages in your favourite editorSYNOPSIS
editmoin http://moinmo.in/WikiSandBox
editmoin -t SomeTemplate http://moinmo.in/WikiSandBox
DESCRIPTION
editmoin allows you to edit Moin wiki pages with your preferred editor. It means you can easily edit your pages, without the usual limitations of most web browsers' text areas.
Its usage is simple and straightforward. Just provide moin's web page url as the first parameter. For example:
- editmoin http://moinmo.in/WikiSandBox
You can also use the -t parameter, to inform a template to base this page on. For example:
- editmoin -t SomeTemplate http://moinmo.in/WikiSandBox
CHANGE SETTINGS
While you're editing a page you'll notice that a few settings are available at the top of the page. These settings are preceded by a @ symbol, and are immediately followed by the page body. These settings allow you to inform, for example, if you want subscribing users to be notified of your changes, or provide a comment for your change. Their functionality is simple, and their meaning, format, and usage should be obvious to you.
SELECTING YOUR EDITOR
The default editor is vi. If you want to use any other, just set the EDITOR environment variable accordingly.
SETTING YOUR USERNAME
For editmoin to be able to authenticate you against the moin site you're accessing, it must know your username. For that, you must edit the file ~/.moin_users and insert URL ID pairs in it. For example:
- http://moinmo.in YourUserName
- http://wiki.ubuntu.com
- http://example.com/moin/moin.cgi AnotherUserName
If the server needs Basic HTTP Authentication you can use something like:
- https://user:password@example.com/moin/moin.cgi YourUserName
For using shortcuts (see below), and also for better control, defining URLs without usernames in that file is valid.
SETTING YOUR MOIN ID EXPLICITLY
In remote times, authentication was done in moin using an ID, consisting mostly of numbers. Nowadays moin was improved to work with a more traditional username/password scheme. Even then, if the traditional username scheme mentioned above doesn't work for you, IDs may still be obtained after authentication, when the moin site sends your browser a MOIN_ID or MOIN_SESSION cookie.
Setting moin IDs consists of changing a file named ~/.moin_ids and inserting URL ID pairs in it. For example:
- http://moinmo.in 987654321.321.54321
- http://wiki.canonical.com
- http://example.com/moin/moin.cgi 123456789.123.12345
If the server needs Basic HTTP Authentication you can use something like:
- https://user:password@example.com/moin/moin.cgi 123456789.123.12345
For using shortcuts (see below), and also for better control, defining URLs without IDs in that file is valid.
ALIASES
Besides using shortcuts, it's also possible to define URL aliases in a file named ~/.moin_aliases. This file should contain lines with pairs of "alias translation". For instance:- script http://moinmo.in/ScriptMarket
With this line present, one may execute a command like follows:
- editmoin script/EditMoin
and get the expected result.
Notice that unlike shortcuts, aliases must match exactly to be considered. After the alias is translated, the resulting URL is also processed for matching shortcuts as specified below.
SHORTCUTS
Instead of using the whole URL, you may use a shortcut, which consists of any substring of an URL contained in ~/.moin_users and/or ~/.moin_ids, followed by a slash and an optional subpath. For instance:
- editmoin canonical/FrontPage
PROXIES
If you're behind a proxy, set the http_proxy environment variable, as usual.
BACKUPS
Editing a moin page may take several minutes, or even hours sometimes. With this in mind, after you change some page it is saved in a file named ~/.moin_lastedit even before trying to commit it. This gives an extra protection against casual problems. Note that this file is overwritten every time a page is successfuly changed, so save it somewhere if you want to keep it.
