Based on excellent feedback provided on the mailing list, we now have an improved script for checking installed versions of recipes and comparing those to what's listed on pmwiki.org.
The new recipe is available at http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/RecipeCheck Yes, it used to be called "RecipeUpdates", but I figure that "Recipe Check" is a more accurate name. To see a sample report for pmwiki.org, visit http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/RecipeCheck?action=recipecheck This new version has two major improvements: - provides a more useful message when allow_url_fopen is disabled - obtains version information from scripts in cookbook/ even for those scripts that aren't loaded - can report "unknown" version some recipes that don't set $RecipeInfo For those who are unable to use RecipeCheck due to PHP restrictions, the site analyzer script has also been updated to perform the same checks: http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/SiteAnalyzer I've also started a page at http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/RecipeMap that maps script names to the corresponding recipe page (e.g., 'mimetex.php' maps to Cookbook:MimeTex). This allows RecipeCheck to report pmwiki.org version information even for those scripts that don't set $RecipeInfo. However, the Cookbook.RecipeMap is still incomplete -- if you find an older recipe that needs to be mapped, feel free to add it to the page or report it here and someone can add it. This feature is still somewhat experimental, and we probably still have some kinks to be worked out, but using it I've already been able to clean up and update some scripts on pmwiki.org . Comments welcomed as always. Pm _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list pmwiki-users@pmichaud.com http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
