[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Rendering Link Syntax Take 2

Hi devs, Sorry for the numerous mails on this topic. I've been struggling a bit in choosing the best solution with the caveats brought by wikimodel. So here's my latest proposal that replaces all previous ones on the link topic: 1) General link syntax: [[label>>reference]] or [[label||reference]] Note1: I've removed the need for parameters, see below. Note2: I'm suggesting double character separators since if we allow wiki syntax in link labels we need to easily differentiate the separator from a character typed in the label. Same reason why we doubled [[ ]], **, //, etc. characters. We could still use single characters (open question, I'm not sure about double chars) since people are not meant to write tons of text in link labels. OTOH it's consistent with our usage of double chars everywhere else (but it breaks current habits of the single char for links). 2) Links with parameters: (% param1=value1 paramN=valueN %)[[label>>reference]] 3) Links with wiki syntax for the label: [[**bold** link>>reference]] [[{{velocity}}...{{/velocity}}>>reference]] [[{{image:...}}>>reference]] <-- image link <OT> Note: For the image link we'll still need to decide if we want a macro for inserting an image or use wiki syntax but that's a topic that is now dissociated from the link topic: [[{{image:my.png}}>>reference]] or [[image:my.png>>reference </OT> Last for those wondering, I've found a solution to make this work with wikimodel and I've discovered Doxia supported wiki syntax in link labels, hence why I'm resurrecting the idea of having wiki syntax in links which is a way superior solution. Thanks -Vincent
