pagestats
The pagestats
directive is supplied by the pagestats plugin.
This directive can generate stats about how pages link to each other. It can produce either a tag cloud, or a table counting the number of links to each page.
Here's how to use it to create a tag cloud, with tags sized based on frequency of use:
[[!pagestats pages="tags/*"]]
Here's how to create a list of tags, sized by use as they would be in a cloud.
[[!pagestats style="list" pages="tags/*"]]
And here's how to create a table of all the pages on the wiki:
[[!pagestats style="table"]]
The optional among
parameter limits the pages whose outgoing links are
considered. For instance, to display a cloud of tags used on blog
entries, while ignoring other pages that use those tags, you could use:
[[!pagestats pages="tags/*" among="blog/posts/*"]]
Or to display a cloud of tags related to Linux, you could use:
[[!pagestats pages="tags/* and !tags/linux" among="tagged(linux)"]]
The optional limit
parameter limits display to the specified number of
pages. For instance, to show a table of the top ten pages with the most
links:
[[!pagestats style="table" limit="10"]]
In older versions of IkiWiki this parameter was called show
;
that name still works, if its value is numeric.
The optional class
parameter can be used to control the class
of the generated tag cloud div
or page stats table
.
By default, the names of pages are shown. The show
parameter
can be used (with a non-numeric value) to show the titles or descriptions
of pages instead (as set by the meta directive). For example:
[[!pagestats pages="tags/*" show="title"]]
