feature request: Index page for an entire wiki about django-wiki HOT 3 OPEN

That's a good idea... as well as RSS feeds would be great for updates and to monitor when new pages arrive.

Both cases have to account for permissions, though.

Will django's sitemap framework be useful? I'm not sure in this case... but a sitemap config would be nice to have too.

Hello, I have one dirty solution I've been using during debug to get the index for a user and (almost) respecting permissions . Thanks to Ben for the excellent architecture !
I am not sure about all drawbacks of my implementation.

I create a view as follows:

from wiki import models


def wiki_index(request,template='wiki_index.html'):
    #hope this line circumvents any site issues
    nodes = models.URLPath.root().get_descendants(include_self=True).can_read(request.user) 
    if not request.user.has_perm('wiki.moderate'):
        nodes = nodes.exclude(article__current_revision__deleted=True)  

return render_to_response(template,{'nodes':nodes},context_instance=RequestContext(request))

and then using mptt tags is straightforward (wiki_index.html)

{% load mptt_tags %}
{% load url from future %}

<ul>
    {% recursetree nodes %}
        <li>
        <a href="{% url 'wiki:get' path=node.path %}"> {{node.article.current_revision.title|default_if_none:"No Title"}}</a>
            {% if not node.is_leaf_node %}
                <ul class="children">
                    {{ children }}
                </ul>
            {% endif %}
        </li>
    {% endrecursetree %}
</ul> 

urls.py add

 url('^index/$', 'your_app.views.wiki_index', name='wiki_index'),

This code "almost" respects permissions, since taking into account the current implementation (not architecture) of can_moderate it is wiki wide and not per article.

Any advise on how to fully implement it correctly ? I dont want to test each article for can_moderate, and since the manager doesn't implement it I dont see any better.
