If you create a JIRA issue and attach a patch, I'll apply it. I've been playing with the confluence parser in the last few days and the twiki parser is very similar so I can work on it.

Hi,

I am Abhijit and work in a platform team at Yahoo! We recently moved documentation of our project from our Twiki web to mvn, primarily so that we could maintain our documentation more effectively and keep it in sync with rapidly changing feature set of our platform.

I tried using the twiki module. I found it quite a bit done, but there were a bunch of features we needed for us to use it. I have enhanced/modified the twiki module for the following features:

1. Enable doxia macros in twiki-module. The syntax I have chosen for this is %MACRO_NAME|param=value|param2=value2% This was most important for the toc macro. A related change which was needed is #2

2. Since toc needed the whole doc source to be supplied, I had to modify ByLineSource implementation to have the entire source. Since changing the whole line based implementation was taknig too much, I just emulated whole source reading and supporting the getLine method in the new implementation.

3. Enable linking of wiki words.

Earlier a [[MyWikiWord]] would get likned to ./MyWikiWord. I am not sure why it was this way. Some light on this? I needed it to point it to ./MyWikiWord.html to be useful. Similarly for linking up wikiwords in [[][]].

4. Enable HTML tags. I saw a JIRA on this. Its not assigned so I guess I can put in my patch there

5. Enabling verbatim and blockquote. verbatim did not seem to work properly for me.

We are currently using a patched version of alpha-9 successfully at Yahoo! (for internal usage only). However, We though that the community may benefit from this and decided to contribute back.

I see that the current tag is 11-alpha. I would appreciate if someone could let me know progress on these issues. I will create necessary JIRA for this and add my patch after that.

Thanks
Abhijit



Thanks,

Jason
