NAME

Konstrukt::Plugin::wiki::markup::link - Inline plugin to handle links

SYNOPSIS

        my $l = use_plugin 'wiki::markup::link';
        my $rv = $l->process($tag);

DESCRIPTION

This one will look for (internal and external, implicit and explicit) links and converts them into HTML-links.

CONFIGURATION

You may define a list of link plugins that will handle the different link types. The first plugin that matches a link will handle it. So the list should be sorted by descending specificity.

The defaults are:

        wiki/link/plugins nolink image file external wiki
        

Note that the wiki plugin should be the last one in the chain since it acts like a catchall plugin ans will match all explicit links.

EXAMPLE

Implicit links

        CamelCase or SomePage
        
        http://foo.bar/baz
        
        !NoLink
        

Explicit links

        Explicit links are required here [[nocamelcase]] or here [[NoSpaceAroundLink]].
        
        [[SomePage|But with some other description]]
        
        [[http://foo.bar/baz|somthing here]]

METHODS

init

Initialization.

process

This method will do the work. Will look for new links inside the text and will also check if the target of existing wiki links exists or not.

Parameters:

_find_matching_plugin

Will return the plugin responsible for a given link string or undef if no plugin matches.

Will only be used internally.

Parameters:

  • $plugins - Reference to an array containing arrayreferences each containing a matching regexp and the plugin.

  • $link - The link string

  • $type - Will be 'explicit' or 'implicit'. Determines the type of regexps to use to match the string.
