Plugin Snarf

This Wiki Plugin replaces itself with the body (HTML) text at the URL given in the url argument. It is similar to the Integrator

Arbitrary regex replacement can be done on this content using regex and regexres, which are used as the first and second arguments to preg_replace, respectively, after pulling out just the <body> data.

Usage

To use this plugin in a wiki page, use the syntax:

{SNARF(url=>http://www.lojban.org,regex=>;.*(.*).*;, regexres=>$1)}This data is put in a CODE caption.{SNARF}

params: url, regex, regexres

Example

{SNARF
(url=>http://www.livejournal.com/users/rlpowell/2418.html, regex=>/.*<!-- Content -->.*?<td>(.*?)<\/td>.*?<\/div>(.*?)<hr.*?<!-- \/Content -->.*/s, regexres=><p>$1</p>$2)}[http://www.livejournal.com/users/rlpowell/2418.html]
{SNARF}

To include the content of a Wikipage of another Tiki-installation you can use the following syntax:

{snarf url="http://my.foo.bar/tiki-index_raw.php?page=ExamplePage" wrap="1" ishtml="1" cache="20"}

or the longer syntax:

{SNARF(url="http://my.foo.bar/tiki-index_raw.php?page=ExamplePage" wrap="1" ishtml="1" cache="20")}{SNARF}

Do NOT type: ".../tiki-index.php?page=..." BUT ".../tiki-index_raw.php?page=..."
This kind of SNARF syntax works in Tiki 5.x and 6.0 and only with Wikipages (not with articles)
