confluence_module

The confluence module allows you to publish wiki pages to Confluence in wiki markup format.

The confluence module is configured with user credentials via a "context" using PUSH-CONTEXT!. See reference section below for more info.

Example

["confluence"] USE-MODULES

# NOTE: You must create a confluence context and apply it using PUSH-CONTEXT!

'SPACE' 'Parent title' 'Page title' 'h2. My Content' confluence.UPSERT-PAGE

Reference

PUSH-CONTEXT!

(context --)

The context is an object that provides a confluence host, a username, and a password used to authorize requests to the Confluence API. It must be set up in the Python code.

This word pushes a context onto the confluence module's context stack. The top of this stack is used as the context for Confluence API calls.

Here's a simple example:

from forthic.interpreter import Interpreter
import forthic.modules.confluence_module as confluence_module

def get_interp():
    interp = Interpreter()
    interp.register_module(confluence_module.ConfluenceModule)

    class MyContext(confluence_module.ConfluenceContext):
        def get_host(self):
            return "http://someconfluencehost"
        
        def get_username(self):
            return "myusername"
        
        def get_password(self):
            # NOTE: This is for illustration purposes
            #       You should really read the password from disk/password manager
            return "mypassword"

    # Set up confluence context
    interp.run("['confluence'] USE-MODULES")
    interp.stack_push(MyContext())
    interp.run("confluence.PUSH-CONTEXT!")
    return interp

POP-CONTEXT!

( -- )

This pops a context from the context stack and throws it away.

HOST

( -- host )

Returns the Confluence host for the current context

PAGE-INFO

( space page_title -- page_info )

This returns page info metadata for the specified page_title in the specified wiki space.

This word is used by other words in the confluence module and is typically not something an end user would find useful.

NBSP

( -- nbsp_char )

This returns a "non-breaking whitespace" character that can be inserted into the wiki markup.

SPACES-WIDE

( str num_spaces -- str )

This is a convenience word that pads a string str with non-breaking whitespace characters until it is num_spaces long. If the string is already more than num_spaces long, this does nothing.

This is useful for forcing columns in a table to be a certain width.

|ESCAPE-TABLE-CONTENT

( str -- str )

This escapes content that is rendered into a wiki table cell.

In particular, this converts newlines into \\, except for bulleted lists and numbered lists. It also removes the '|' character except in the case where it's used to specify a link

TABLE

( header records -- wiki_markup )

Given a header and records with fields corresponding to the header values, constructs a table in wiki markup with a row for each record.

UPSERT-PAGE

( space parent_title page_title content -- )

Creates/updates a page in the specified space under the specified parent_title page. The content should be in wiki markup.
