Diary

With diary commands, you can use your wiki as a diary (surprise).

The show command will show you all your logs (today).

The log command will open up your $EDITOR and after save+quit, it will append it for your diary page (today).

When you call log, doku will check all the path back and generates content for the tree.

For example:

# Today is 2019-02-21 and your index is configured to be 'root'
doku diary log

# This will create the following pages if it's not exist
:diary:2019:02:21
:diary:2019:02:root
:diary:2019:root

# Will regenerate this page
# if you log an entry in a year previously was not there
:diary:root

# from stdin (pipe)
echo 'message' | doku diary log --pipe

# decorate with <code>...</code>
# automatically activated the --pipe flag
ls -la | doku diary log --code
