I've written a post_write plugin for Wiki::Toolkit, Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping . When you create one, you tell it how to turn a node name into a URL (via the node_name_url parameter), and you give it a list of services to "ping" on node write (via the services parameter)
When registered, Wiki::Toolkit will call the post_write method when a node has been written, and it'll go off and notify the various services (eg pingerati, geourl), all in the background.
Hello,
Could you explain a little more about what 'pinging' means in this context and why it would be useful?
Cheers,
Dominic.
