It's time for a new release. This release brings a few important updates, including one important breaking change (see #289): The default filetype is now Markdown, instead of the previous .wiki. This should be more aligned with user expectations and I believe it would reduce the required configuration for most users.

Notice that those who use the wiki filetype and want to still do that now likely need to apply some configuration, e.g.:

let g:wiki_filetypes = ['wiki']
let g:wiki_link_target_type = 'wiki'
let g:wiki_link_extension = ''

Features

• Breaking changes!
  • Changed default filetype to Markdown (#289)
  • Added g:wiki_journal_index option (#260)
    • The option g:wiki_journal.index_use_journal_scheme is deprecated!
  • Unified the "search" commands WikiPages, WikiTags, and WikiToc and thereby deprecated WikiFzf* variants.
  • Removed support for CtrlP (:CtrlPWiki) and for Unite and Denite
    • I don't want to keep support for these interfaces. I instead want to provide an API that makes it easy to build such interfaces on top for those who are interested.
• Added support for neovim's vim.ui.select (#281, #282)
  • Add configuration option g:wiki_select_method for Wiki{Pages,Tags,Toc}
• Added g:wiki_journal_index.link_text_parser and g:wiki_journal_index.link_url_parser (#260)
  • This adds a flexible way to specify how :WikiJournalIndex should determine the link text and url of the recognized links.
• Added g:wiki_fzf_tags_opts (#157, #269)
  • Allows to pass additional options to Fzf in :WikiTags (with Fzf backend). This is useful e.g. to add a previewer.
• Allowed to disable specified mappings with the g:wiki_mappings_... options (#159)
• Implemented a less strict reference url detector (#275)
• Allowed . inside shortcites (lervag/wiki-ft.vim#13)
