History of LibertyFormats

LibertyPackage allows developers to specify various formats for data.

A plugin can be defined to allow and process data in a certain format. The formats can be enabled by an administrator on the Liberty>Plugins page.

Available formats:
* Tiki Wiki format is the default.
* HTML format
* ((PEAR Text_Wiki))

Common tags:
since some tags do more than just make it easy to edit text, we want to allow the usage of specific tags in any plugin. these include:
!!!please edit and comment!
* ~np~{toc}~/np~ - creates a table of contents from a given structure.
* ~np~{maketoc}~/np~ - creates a table of contents from the headings within a page.
* ~np~((WikiWords))~/np~ - might be useful as well, since these wouldn't be recognised otherwise.
* ~np~{rss id=x}~/np~ - RSS streams
* ~np~{cookie}~/np~ - not entirely sure what this is used for, but it certaily wouldn't be accessible through css.
* ((LibertyTag: MM|~np~{mm}~/np~)) - Freemind mindmap integration. (See link for more details)

Plugins have three standard functions the LibertyEngine attempts to call at various times. You must name these functions using your format_guid as a prefix, followed by three possible endings. For example, if your format is 'bbcode', then your functions declared in liberty/plugins/format.bbcode.php must look like:

^!!!bbcode_save_data
called automatically during object call to LibertyContent::store if the LibertyContent object has the format 'bbcode'^
^!!!bbcode_parse_data
called automatically during object call to LibertyContent::load if the LibertyContent object has the format 'bbcode'^
^!!!bbcode_verify_data( &$pParamHash )
The function called automatically during object call to LibertyContent::store method to verify proper syntax if the LibertyContent object has the format 'bbcode'.

It needs to copy the edit field to the 'content_store''data' hash for proper storage. For example:
{CODE(in=>php)}
function bbcode_verify_data( &$pParamHash ) {
$errorMsg = NULL;
$pParamHash['content_store']['data'] = bbcode_check_syntax( $pParamHash['edit'] );
return( $errorMsg );
}
{CODE}
returns an errorMsg if there was a syntax error with the format, else returns null.^
