AtLinks

Goal

Provide an alternative solution to build links by prefixing the page names with an @

Solution

Set in the file local/config.php the following lines:

function CHX($x,$y) { if ($y=='') return NULL; return $y; }

## @"target | text" or  @'target | text' or @'target ; tex't or @"target, tx"
Markup('@_','links',"/@([\\x22\\x27])([^|,;]+?)(?:[|,;](.*?))*\\1($SuffixPattern)/",
  "mu_atlinks1");

function mu_atlinks1($m) {
  extract($GLOBALS['MarkupToHTML']);
  return Keep(MakeLink($pagename,$m[2],CHX($m[2],$m[3]),$m[4]),'L');
}

## @link (after a non alphanum char)
Markup('@','>urllink',"/(?<![[:alnum:]])@([^\\x22\\x27](?:-?[[:alnum:]\\/]+)*)/",
  "mu_atlinks2");

function mu_atlinks2($m) {
  extract($GLOBALS['MarkupToHTML']);
  return Keep(MakeLink($pagename,$m[1],NULL,NULL),'L');
}

This work in addition to existing linking, the usual linking stuff remains active.

Usage

@cat , -@dog ...@Test/bear @CNC25 - Address : toto@wanadoo.fr

S @dlink make@"univers" 

@"Test/a link"  @"Test.another link"  `@ is not ok

@"target|text" , @"target2,2text"e - @'target3 ; 3text'e

@'Test/lnk1;txt1',@"Test/lnk2;txt2"

-@"one link "- -@"l'élément"

@"skin config" @"Test.link | text" 

@"Test.link, text"ual  - @"Test.lnk2, txt2" 

This is quite flexible, you can use as text separator | or , or ;
and as container ' or " so it is possible to have ' in the text. By example :

@"PmWikiFr/Conseils pour l'édition"

Though the notation @"text -> target" works only with double quotes

See an example here :

Restrictions

That don't work in PmWiki/WikiTrails

Sandbox

Old stuff - still active on this page

 
function CHX($x,$y) { if ($y=='') return NULL; return $y; }

## @"target | text" or  @'target | text' or @'target ; tex't or @"target, tx"
Markup('@_','links',"/@([\\x22\\x27])([^|,;]+?)(?:[|,;](.*?))*\\1($SuffixPattern)/e",
  "Keep(MakeLink(\$pagename,PSS('$2'),CHX(PSS('$2'),PSS('$3')),'$4'),'L')");

## @link (after a non alphanum char)
Markup('@','>urllink',"/(?<![[:alnum:]])@([^\\x22\\x27](?:-?[[:alnum:]\\/]+)*)/e",
  "Keep(MakeLink(\$pagename,PSS('$1'),NULL,NULL),'L')");
