Drop duplicates logs.
Allow for logs to be grouped, enforcing a maximum number of logs per group.
Add the LOG_FILTER setting to ask from the configuration file to ignore some
logs (of level up to warning).
Previously, the documentation claimed the value of None for this purpose
even though False was used for certain defaults. The values False and
None cause warnings to be emitted from URLWrapper._from_settings though,
so the new way of inhibiting page generation is to set a *_SAVE_AS value
to the empty string.
PAGINATION_PATTERNS was hard coded so that all files had a ".html" extension. This fixes that and add a test to
ensure that the pagination code is not changing the filename incorrectly.
Add a `Readers` class which contains a dict of file extensions / `Reader`
instances. This dict can be overwritten with a `READERS` settings, for instance
to avoid processing *.html files:
READERS = {'html': None}
Or to add a custom reader for the `foo` extension:
READERS = {'foo': FooReader}
This dict is no storing the Reader classes as it was done before with
`EXTENSIONS`. It stores the instances of the Reader classes to avoid instancing
for each file reading.
If LOCALE was not specified in the settings file it would default
to [] insted of [''], where '' is used by locale.setlocale
to mean the user's default locale.
The `slugify()` function used by Pelican is in general very good at
coming up with something both readable and URL-safe. However, there are
a few specific cases where it causes conflicts. One that I've run into
is using the strings `C++` and `C` as tags, both of which transform to
the slug `c`. This commit adds an optional `SLUG_SUBSTITUTIONS` setting
which is a list of 2-tuples of substitutions to be carried out
case-insensitively just prior to stripping out non-alphanumeric
characters. This allows cases like `C++` to be transformed to `CPP` or
similar. This can also improve the readability of slugs.
If DELETE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY is set to True, all files and directories are
deleted from the output directory. There are, however, several reasons
one might want to retain certain files/directories and avoid their
deletion from the output directory. One such use case is version control
system data: a versioned output directory can facilitate deployment via
Heroku and/or allow the user to easily revert to a prior version of the
site without having to rely on regeneration via Pelican.
This change introduces the OUTPUT_RETENTION setting, a tuple of
filenames that will be preserved when the clean_output_dir function in
pelican.utils is run. Setting OUTPUT_RETENTION = (".hg", ".git") would,
for example, prevent the relevant VCS data from being deleted when the
output directory is cleaned.
The broken code came from my 1d4d86c (settings: Rework the
LESS_GENERATOR removal warning for easy extension, 2013-03-24), where
I put formatting placeholders ({}) into the warning message, but
forgot to fill them in :/.
We no longer instantiate the Static object in the StaticGenerator, so
we can't set the save_as argument anymore. If you want to adjust the
output path, use the upcoming EXTRA_PATH_METADATA setting.
If a setting exists in DEFAULT_CONFIG, assume it will be there
(instead of checking and/or providing a local default). The earlier
code was split between the two idioms, which was confusing.
Setting migration is something that will happen for multiple settings,
and the more we can standardize the reporting procedure, the easier it
will be to add new warnings.
This dictionary is accessed by plugins (like `summary`) which add new
settings, so it should be public (i.e. no prefixed underscore).
The changed name length would have led to a re-indenting of the
default contents anyway, so I shifted them all to four spaces.
From the Python docs for os.sep [1]:
Note that knowing this is not sufficient to be able to parse or
concatenate pathnames - use os.path.split() and os.path.join()...
Where I touched a line, I also changed double quoted string literals
to single quotes, since they are used more often in the source:
wking@mjolnir ~/src/pelican $ git grep "'" pelican/*.py | wc -l
683
wking@mjolnir ~/src/pelican $ git grep '"' pelican/*.py | wc -l
181
