Find Fu

An extension for the Radiant CMS, adding some advanced find methods.

Tags

Currently this extension adds the following tags for you to peruse:

children:new

<r:children:new>...</r:children:new>

Returns children to be published after a specified date (defaults to today).

The date can be specified using the from parameter.

The following example will list all articles that have been published within the last 30 days:

<r:find url="/articles">
  <r:children:new from="30.days.ago">
    ...
  </r:children:new>
</r:find>

children:old

<r:children:old>...</r:children:old>

Returns children to be published before a specified date (defaults to today).

The date can be specified using the to parameter.

General Remarks

• r:children:new as well as r:children:old support all regular options you can pass to r:children[:...].
• the from and to attributes are evaluated as pure ruby code, which could potentially be a major security risk! You have been warned! (Feel free to suggest alternatives though)

if_url_with_match

<r:if_url_with_match matches="regexp">...</r:if_url_with_match>

Does the same as <r:if_url> except that every back-reference (as well as the whole matched string) you define in your regular expression will be accessible within the tag using <r:match />.

match

<r:match [id="1"] />

Can be used within r:if_url_with_match to retrieve the value of any backreference defined in the regular expression.

<r:if_url_with_match matches="^/([^/])/.*$">
  You're currently in the <r:match /> directory!
</r:if_url_with_match>

Installation

The extension is tested against 0.6.5, it should work for other versions though.

To install the extension just run

git clone git://github.com/inz/find_fu.git vendor/extensions/find_fu

and (re)start your radiant installation.

Of course you can also include the extension as a git submodule like so:

git submodule add git://github.com/inz/find_fu.git vendor/extensions/find_fu

Enjoy!
