TWiki::Func Module Documentation

Official list of stable TWiki functions for Plugin developers

Description

This module defines official funtions that Plugins and add-on scripts can use to interact with the TWiki engine and content.

Plugins should only use functions published in this module. If you use functions in other TWiki libraries you might impose a security hole and you will likely need to change your Plugin when you upgrade TWiki.

The version of the TWiki::Func module is defined by the VERSION number of the TWiki::Plugins module, currently 1.025. This can be shown by the %PLUGINVERSION{}% variable. The "Since" field in the function documentation refers to the VERSION number and the date that the function was addded.

Notes: TWiki internally precompiles several regular expressions to represent various string entities in an I18N-compatible manner. Plugins are encouraged to use these in matching where appropriate. The following are guaranteed to be present; others may exist, but their use is unsupported and they may be removed in future TWiki versions. Those which are marked "CC" are for use within character classes and may not produce the desired results outside of them.

Name Matches CC
upperAlpha Upper case characters Y
lowerAlpha Lower case characters Y
mixedAlpha Alphabetic characters Y
mixedAlphaNum Alphanumeric charactecs Y
wikiWordRegex WikiWords N

Since: TWiki::Plugins::VERSION 1.025 (01 Aug 2004)

The dependencies are expressed as a list of hashes. Each hash contains the name of a package and (optionally) a boolean constraint on the VERSION variable in that package. It is usually used from the initPlugin method like this:

   if( $TWiki::Plugins::VERSION >= 1.025 ) {
      my @deps = (
            { package => 'TWiki::Plugins::CalendarPlugin', constraint => '>= 5.030' },
            { package => 'Time::ParseDate' },
            { package => 'Apache::VMonitor' }
      );
      my $err = TWiki::Func::checkDependencies( $pluginName, \@deps );
      if( $err ) {
            TWiki::Func::writeWarning( $err );
            print STDERR $err; # print to webserver log file
            return 0; # plugin initialisation failed
      }
   }
