Scott is into [Velocity templates|wiki Tools] these days and plugins for JSPWiki tend to print a lot of text with some variable parts, so this looks like a good way to design plugins. If most of the interesting parts of a plugin end up in a template, this brings the question of allowing a more generic plugin that takes the template from a wiki page and builds a velocity context to run it.
At line 78 added 3 lines
A velocity context can provide:
* formatted data an objects (e.g. key/value pairs defined in a plugin invocation or in a document referenced by the invocation (raw page, rendered page, attachment)
* access to methods and objects
At line 82 added 4 lines
The wiki could expose methods for:
* search in the wiki
* information about the user if logged in (actually risky: one user could spy on users accessing a page of his).
* access to the rendering engine
At line 87 added 5 lines
The output could be:
* wiki text that is then run through the wiki's rendering engine.
* html code
* SVG or other in a page that has an appropriate mime type
* Javascript code

!! Wiki services
At line 95 added 7 lines
To make it easier to develop pages with more behavior (AJAX style), we need the wiki to automatically provide services based on the pages:
* a template plugin and a mechanism to get a rendered page without the skin should provide read services easily.
* a service to create a page and fill it with data would be useful although it might be relatively easy to emulate that by POSTing to /Edit.jsp?page=<page>
* a service to attach a file containing data
* renaming and deleting pages
* the search feature of the wiki exposed as a service
* a service to accept POST of forms and perform some generic action automatically (take keys/values and put them into a wiki page or append them to one. Applying a velocity template is an option here)

The ability to run code on the wiki side based on parameters received in the request and then compute changes to be made to the wiki (e.g. update multiple pages) might be useful but really seems less natural.
