5 /$LISTNAME/?r=$GIT_COMMIT -> HTML only
6 /$LISTNAME/new.atom -> Atom feed
8 #### Optional, relies on Search::Xapian
9 /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/t/ -> HTML content of thread
10 /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/t.atom -> Atom feed for thread
11 /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/t.mbox.gz -> gzipped mbox of thread
14 /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/ -> HTML content (short quotes)
15 /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID -> 301 to /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID
16 /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/raw -> raw mbox
17 /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/f/ -> HTML content (full quotes)
19 ### Legacy endpoints (may be ambiguous given Message-IDs with similar suffixes)
20 /$LISTNAME/m/$MESSAGE_ID/ -> 301 to /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/
21 /$LISTNAME/m/$MESSAGE_ID.html -> 301 to /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/
22 /$LISTNAME/m/$MESSAGE_ID.txt -> 301 to /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/raw
23 /$LISTNAME/f/$MESSAGE_ID.html -> 301 to /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/f/
24 /$LISTNAME/f/$MESSAGE_ID.txt [1] -> 301 to /$LISTNAME/$MESSAGE_ID/raw
26 /$LISTNAME/atom.xml [2] -> identical to /$LISTNAME/new.atom
28 Additionally, we support "git clone" pointed to http://$HOST/$LISTNAME
30 FIXME: we must refactor/cleanup/add tests for most of our CGI before
31 adding more endpoints and features.
33 [1] These URLs were never linked, but only exist as a convenience to folks
34 who edit existing URLs
36 [2] Do not make this into a 301 since feed readers may not follow them as well
37 as normal browsers do.
42 Raw HTML and XML should only contain us-ascii characters which render
45 Plain text (raw message) endpoints display in the original encoding(s)
46 of the original email.
48 Guidelines for using limited HTML
49 ---------------------------------
51 We mainly use HTML for linking pages together with <a>.
52 We also set <title> to make window management easier.
54 We favor <pre>-formatted text since public-inbox is intended as a place
55 to share and discuss patches and code. Unfortunately, long paragraphs
56 tends to be less readable with fixed-width serif fonts which GUI
57 browsers default to. So perhaps we will add different endpoints for
60 * No graphics, images, or icons at all. We tolerate, but do not
61 encourage the use of GUIs.
63 * No setting colors or font sizes, power to users to decide those.
65 * Only one font type (fixed or variable) per page. This is for
66 accessibility, we must not blow certain elements out-of-proportion
67 when a reader increases font size.
69 * Bold and underline elements are OK since they should render fine
70 regardless of chosen font and gracefully degrade if a display does
71 not support them. Italics and strike-through elements must be
72 avoided as they do not render well with some displays or user-chosen
75 * No JavaScript. JS is historically too buggy and insecure, and we will
76 never expect our readers to do either of the following:
77 a) read and audit all our code for on every single page load
78 b) trust us and and run code without reading it
80 * We only use CSS for one reason: wrapping pre-formatted text
81 This is necessary because unfortunate GUI browsers tend to be
82 prone to layout widening. w3m is fine here without CSS :)
83 No other CSS is allowed, especially with scary things like:
