Hi,

I just started using Informl for a collaborative document creation
effort. The Help pages says that we can delete pages, but I cannot
find any instructions on how to do this. Any help would be
appreciated. 

I am using the latest stable release of Informl from the
rubyforge site.

thanks,
saji

Hi, Saji,

We'd be happy to hear more details about how you are using Informl. We
have lots of ideas about things we could do next, and your input would
be valuable.

As for your question, page deletion is possible, but a bit hidden at
the moment. If you navigate to the URL

  http://your.server.com/pages

you will be given the opportunity to delete pages. However, this can
be  dangerous -- keep in mind that this will permanently delete the
page and any associated form data and metadata. Any links and
references to the page will be broken.

In the future we plan to merely hide deleted pages (and provide an
undelete mechanism). Until then, please be careful!

Another related issue: right now there is no sensible way to rename a
page. Implementing this won't be so easy, I'm afraid, but we're aware
that not being able to is annoying.

Subject: [Informl-talk] Format error when including pages
Message-ID: <E9CC4EC8-F23B-45AD-85FC-18DF14A9467B@apcc21.net>

Hi,

The following discrepancy was noted when including pages from a child  
node into the parent node. For a demo see

http://210.98.49.34:3010

If you check this page and go to

http://210.98.49.34:3010/apcc/pages/6;source

you can see that the user implemented a list using markdown. This  
produces correct formatting in the users page.

http://210.98.49.34:3010/apcc/pages/Dr+Tam

However when this page is included in the parent page

http://210.98.49.34:3010/apcc

the formatting is lost. This does not happen if we use XHTML tags. I  
noticed it in other cases too. see

http://210.98.49.34:3010/apcc/pages/Saji

A h1 header was implemented using markdown and below that  
preformatted text was included. But when the page is included in the  
parent. the formatting of the preformatted text is lost.

any ideas on how to correctly do this would be much appreciated.

Hi David,

Thanks for the quick and detailed response. About page deletion I  
found it out by chance and was able to delete pages. I understand  
that it is better to hide this option for the time being, especially  
since there is no mechanism to restrict access to the pages for the  
time being.

About intended usage:

We are a small seasonal forecasting center located in S. Korea, with   
a staff of about 10 scientists including postdocs. I joined here last  
August after stints in Japan and Hawaii. In my endeavour to  re- 
organize our working environment, I have been searching for a web  
based framework that will allow collaborative generation of documents  
- internal manuals, annual reports etc.

I have been searching for a while and I tried out several - Instiki,  
Wagn (wagn.org), Pandora (pandora.rubyveil.com), Hieraki and so on. I  
found Informl to be the most attractive solution, very intuitive to  
use.. Very charming. I installed it last night and today opened it to  
our staff to try out. You can see it being tested at

http://210.98.49.34:3010

page deletion:

   * Undelete option sounds good!

  *  renaming : would be nice

  *  the user may however really wish to delete pages and may be  
appropriate to
      allow this to happen

I have no expertise in RoR etc, but have been using the Radiant CMS  
(http://radiantcms.org).
It allows pages to be renamed or deleted and with a mechanism of  
slugs also allows pages to be placed in any order for a project (say  
a book).

Anyway I must say that I am very happy using Informl and would be  
happy to provide feedbacks on it from time to time.

Is it possible for an editor to add comments to a page in Informl. Do  
I need to download a version from the svn repository for this?

We have just pushed out new point releases of both Tartan and Informl,
which include a number of bug fixes and improvements -- including a
fix to {{include}} that resolves this problem.

The latest Tartan is now 0.2.1, which you can get via "sudo gem update tartan".
The latest Informl is now 0.4.1, and can be downloaded from rubyforge
at http://rubyforge.org/projects/informl/.

See the announcements, or release notes and changelogs, for more details.

Message-ID: <c4da0b700706130532q4fb20c5bj7754e4aeeb729db2@mail.gmail.com>

Release 0.4.1 of Informl is ready, and includes both bug fixes and
some new features.

You should update the Tartan gem in concert with upgrading Informl --
"sudo gem update tartan" should get you Tartan 0.2.1.

Also -- you are all invited to check out my new blog that is both
(sometimes) about, and built with, Informl --
http://blog.folklogic.net/david

New features in Informl 0.4.1:

  * Smart HTML differences view for comparing versions of pages.
  * Support for !=, "like", and "not like" in queries.
  * _System book that contains Informl "pages" corresponding to
    built-in activerecord models, such as "page". This allows
    some interesting meta-behavior, such as iterating over
    the pages in a book to generate a list of links, or a blog.
  * Page feed, suitable for blogging.
  * Added check, gem:check, gem:missing, gem:list and gem:install
    targets to help with installing Informl.
  * Per-book styling of the pages and versions index views.
  * Allow extensions to have an explicit closer, as in
    <<iterate>>
    [:name:]
    <</iterate>>

Bug fixes:

  * Page include (using the {{pagename}} markup) didn't always
    parse the included content.
  * When authentication is turned on, do not require being
    logged-in in order to create form entries.
  * Completed support for queries that require joins.
  * Re-organized the CSS to make positioning easier; fixed the
    doc stylesheet to work in IE6.
  * Bug fixes to markdown support (from latest release of Tartan).

We've been thinking page based comments would be a good idea, but 
Informl doesn't currently support them -- at least not explicitly.

Of course anyone with edit access to the page can add comments to the 
end of the page.  This might be a pretty workable solution, actually.  
You just need to come up with a convention of how people format the 
content.  Maybe put in a horizontal rule at the bottom of the page and 
each comment has the person's name and the date followed by their comment.

I was also thinking there may be a way to get comments on pages by 
including a page with a comments form and summary into other pages where 
you want comments, but I haven't yet tried to make this work.

If we want something more "built in", I've seen a couple of ways of 
handling a more fixed page based comments feature.  In MediaWiki each 
subject page has a dedicated discussion page which often has a life of 
it's own.  Another way of handling comments would be to add blog style 
comments to pages that get tacked onto the bottom of the page.  Do you 
have a preference or thoughts on what the best way to handle this?

Any chance you would be able to help with creating a page comments 
feature?  There's pretty long list of features we want get into Informl 
and currently we have but two sets of hands to get the work done.

In any case, your comments and questions are very welcome -- keep them 
coming.

Hi Larry,

Thanks for the reply on adding comments. I will try out some of the  
suggestions and see what fits us best.

  I am afraid I am a ruby newbie and may not be of much help at this  
point. At a later point when I get more familiar with Ruby,  
especially Rails I would like to pitch in to your wonderful project.

best wishes,

saji

Hi David,

I am checking out the new version Informl 0.4.1 and have a few  
questions:

1. adding stylesheets to a book - how does one do it?

      Does one just add a new page called _stylesheet? Is that all?

2.  _System book : what is this for?

       o I am curious and enter the Author page

      http://210.98.49.34:3010/_system/pages/Author

and get the following error message. Reproducing it below in case it  
helps ( as you can see at this point i am not sure what is happening)

Hi David,

I traced the error messages to the db/development_structure.sql. It  
is likely that there were some errors in the syntax. I am attaching a  
version of that file that works with MySql 5.0
?
The tables are now created in MySQL without a problem.  Now when I  
run the server I ran into a new error with MySql. It apparently looks  
for a table called formfields that does not exist.

Since I do not know the structure of formfields I cannot add this to  
the database. Hope someone can help.

thanks,
saji

Saji,

There are three basic steps to setting up a mysql database for informl
(or really for any Rails application):

1. Create the database itself, the user, and grant permissions to that user.
2. Setup the file config/database.yml to match the setup done in step 1.
3. Execute "rake db:migrate" in the rails project -- this will create
all of the
   necessary tables, including formfields.

Given the error msg you are getting, I'm guessing you just need to do
the rake db:migrate. Let me know how it goes.

David,

Thanks. I did what you suggested. At the 3rd step (rake db:migrate) I run
into the following error. I had done the same steps (but used a different
database) for informl0.4.0 but did not face such problems. Apparently
the tables are not getting created properly.

thanks,
saji
...

p.s: I am using mysql 5.0

Saji,

Thanks for the trace; I see what's wrong. I will put together a new
release to fix this ASAP, but if you want to workaround the problem in
meantime, here's what you can do:

(1) Comment out the last line of config/environment.rb, so that it
looks like this

# SystemBook.create

(2) Do the rake db:migrate

(3) Reinstate the last line of config/environment.rb

SystemBook.create

(4) Run informl

--david

David,

This works fine now and I booted the server. 
The following problems were encountered. 

  A new book named _system was created by informl
  Errors are returned if I click on any of ( Book User Pages )

 I created a new book. -> book is created fine
  Now I edit the book and try to save the edits.
  The following errors were returned:

 NoMethodError in VersionsController#create

undefined method `name' for [["saji ", "190.1.1.24", :false], nil]:Array

If you need any further info, please let me know at your convenience.

saji
