NAME

CGI::Wiki::Plugin - A base class for CGI::Wiki plugins.

DESCRIPTION

Provides methods for accessing the backend store, search and formatter objects of the CGI::Wiki object that a plugin instance is registered with.

SYNOPSIS

  package CGI::Wiki::Plugin::Foo;
  use base qw( CGI::Wiki::Plugin);

  # And then in your script:
  my $wiki = CGI::Wiki->new( ... );
  my $plugin = CGI::Wiki::Plugin::Foo->new;
  $wiki->register_plugin( plugin => $plugin );
  my $node = $plugin->datastore->retrieve_node( "Home" );

METHODS

new

  sub new {
      my $class = shift;
      my $self = bless {}, $class;
      $self->_init if $self->can("_init");
      return $self;
  }

Generic contructor, just returns a blessed object.

datastore
