Item14540: PublishPlugin: Not all resources published correctly

In a recently published topic the following code is generated:

<link media="all" class="head JQUERYPLUGIN::COMMENT" type="text/css" href="../System/CommentPlugin.attachments/comment.css" rel="stylesheet"><!--JQUERYPLUGIN::COMMENT-->
<link href="../System/TwistyPlugin.attachments/twisty.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" class="head JQUERYPLUGIN::TWISTY" media="all"><!--JQUERYPLUGIN::TWISTY: requires= missing ids: JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref-->
<link href="../System/SmiliesPlugin.attachments/smilies.css" rel="stylesheet" class="head SMILIESPLUGIN" type="text/css" media="all"><!--SMILIESPLUGIN-->

The file ../System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js is neither transferred to the published directory nor referenced somewhere.

Should be OK now

I'm afraid I have to reopen this. I just tested it with the latest plugin version 3.4, but foswikiPref.js is still not published.

My parameters are:

./rest /PublishPlugin/publish "topics=MyWeb.TestPage" publishskin="myskin" format="file" outfile="publish-test" allattachments="1"

-- StefanH - 02 May 2018

After further analysis it seems the corresponding line is included by our "myskin" template in this case:

%ADDTOZONE{"script" id="JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref" text="<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"../System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js\"></script>" requires="JQUERYPLUGIN::FOSWIKI"}%

I don't know if the PublishPlugin should handle this. If not I am fine to close this then.

Tried the publication of a topic with the above ADDTOZONE. The generated html is:

<script type="text/javascript" class="script JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref" src="../System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js"></script><!--JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref-->

which is NOT the expected reference. it should be ../System/JavascriptFiles.attachments/foswikiPref.js. The file does not exists in that location or anywhere else in the published tree

Debug shows the file is treated as an external resource. And I do not copy external resources:

Processing URL ../System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js
- external resource
../System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js = ../System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js

Changing the reference to :

%ADDTOZONE{"script" id="JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref" text="<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"%PUBURLPATH{ "foswikiPref.js" web="System" topic="JavascriptFiles" }%\"></script>" requires="JQUERYPLUGIN::FOSWIKI"}%

helps the plugin recognise the reference as internal:

Processing URL /devwiki/pub/System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js
- matched pub_rel at System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js
Published System.JavascriptFiles:foswikiPref.js as System/JavascriptFiles.attachments/foswikiPref.js
-mapped /devwiki/pub/System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js to System/JavascriptFiles.attachments/foswikiPref.js
Rewrite System/JavascriptFiles.attachments/foswikiPref.js (rel to Sandbox/TestPublishFoswikiPrefJs.html)
as ../System/JavascriptFiles.attachments/foswikiPref.js
/devwiki/pub/System/JavascriptFiles/foswikiPref.js = ../System/JavascriptFiles.attachments/foswikiPref.js

And the file is now copied to the correct location:

$ ls publish/file/System/JavascriptFiles.attachments/
foswikiForm.js  foswikiPref.js  foswikiString.js
$

Moral of the story: PublishPlugin requires properly formed href to do its magic.

Can I close this task?

Hi BramVanOosterhout, thank you for this hint. I just tried it with PUBURLPATH and it works like a charm. The task can be closed.
