==============================
 Trac Wiki Notification Plugin
==============================

Trac WikiNotification is a plugin that allows users(even anonymous,
as long as email is set) to select the wiki pages that they wish to
be notified(by email) when a change occurs on it.

**Note**: The user updating the wiki page won't be notified about his own
changes.

Enabling the Plugin
-------------------
It's as simple as:

::

   [components]
   wikinotification.* = enabled

``smtp_enabled`` has to be enabled in ``notification`` configuration section.

Available Configuration Options
-------------------------------
These are the options available to include on your ``trac.ini`` under
``wiki-notification``. You can configure them through the web admin interface, too.

=====================  ==========================  ==========================
 **Config Setting**     **Default Value**          **Explanation**
---------------------  --------------------------  --------------------------
*redirect_time*        5 (in seconds)              The default seconds a
                                                   redirect should take when
                                                   watching/un-watching a
                                                   wiki page.
                                                   This value is also
                                                   definable per user, ie,
                                                   user is able to configure
                                                   this, of course for
                                                   himself.

                                                   is disabled(the default),

=====================  ==========================  ==========================

If you want to override these settings then you can include it like the
following example:

::

   [wiki-notification]
   redirect_time = 5
   smtp_always_bcc = someone@somedomain, another.one@somedomain
   smtp_always_cc = someone.else@somedomain
   from_email = trac.wiki@localhost
   from_name = Custom Name
   use_public_cc = false
   attach_diff = true
   subject_template = Foo $prefix $pagename $action
   banned_addresses = banned.user1@somedomain, banned.user2@somedomain

Download and Installation
-------------------------

Run the following to install this plugin:

::

   > sudo pip install TracWikiNotification

Aditional Notes(from user input)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* ``pip`` is run from the command line (on Linux) not from within
  Python.


* After installing any plugin for Trac you'll need to restart Apache to see
  it (not all changes to trac.ini require a restart but adding a plugin does).


* Make sure to add the new plugin to ``trac.ini`` :

  ::

    [components]
    wikinotification.* = enabled


* Also should be noted that the ``trac.ini`` configuration for the wiki
  notification should look something like:

  ::

    [wiki-notification]
    smtp_always_cc = someone@somedomain
    from_email = trac.wiki@localhost


* **Another note**: a user will never get a notice of his/her own wiki
  modification (which is a little tricky when testing the plugin :))

* Please note that older versions of the plugin may set a subject_template config value, similar to
  `subject_template = $prefix $page.name $action`.  This will result in '`UndefinedError: "page" not defined`'.
  Use `$pagename` instead of `$page.name`.

Tweaking/Customizing The Notification Email Template
----------------------------------------------------
You can, if you wish, tweak the notification email template sent to your users.

Copy the ``wiki_notification_email_template.txt`` file to your trac environment
``templates/`` sub-directory and tweak it to your needs.

Make sure you read the `Genshi Text Templates`_ documentation to see if you don't
break any of the logic in that template.
