Previously a simple textarea with limited assistance, it now runs |
| the <a href="http://nextstepwebs.github.io/simplemde-markdown-editor/">SimpleMDE Markdown Editor</a> and includes live syntax highlighting and |
| a helpful toolbar. It will be included in the next release of Allura, or is available now by using the latest code from <code>git</code>.</p> |
| <p>Markdown is a core part of Allura and is used in every text area, including tickets, wiki pages, commenting, etc. Markdown |
| makes it easy to do simple formatting of your text, but not everyone is familiar with it. The existing formatting help |
| and preview mode was helpful, but we wanted to do more.</p> |
| <p>The new editor's live syntax highlighting makes it really easy |
| to get an idea of what your text is going to look like and avoid formatting mistakes. The preview mode is still there |
| to show you an exact rendering of the formatting. And then the toolbar makes common formatting operations very easy. |
| It's a time saver and allows people new to Markdown to format their text without reading the comprehensive formatting |
| reference page.</p></summary><category term="feature"></category></entry><entry><title>CORS support added to Allura</title><link href="http://allura.apache.org/posts/2015-cors.html" rel="alternate"></link><updated>2015-07-24T00:00:00+00:00</updated><author><name></name></author><id>tag:allura.apache.org,2015-07-24:posts/2015-cors.html</id><summary type="html"><p>The latest Allura code now supports CORS http headers. It will be included in the next release of Allura, |
| or is available now by using the latest code from <code>git</code>.</p> |
| <p><a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Access_control_CORS">CORS headers</a> allow JavaScript running on other sites |
| to access the Allura APIs. By default, browser's Same Origin Policy would prevent that. CORS is still secure, because Allura's |
| authenticate is in place. APIs that require authorization still require it. OAuth or OAuth tokens can be used, |
| cookies cannot be used - so nobody could be tricked into doing something accidentally.</p> |
| <p>To enable this and allow more sites to integrate with Allura, see the <code>cors.*</code> settings in your <code>development.ini</code> file.</p></summary><category term="feature"></category></entry></feed> |
