Display Table of Contents

Notice: This plugin is unmaintained and available for adoption.

Description

This macro generates a table of contents for the current page or a set of pages.

If no arguments are given, a table of contents is generated for the current page, with the top-level title stripped:

[[TOC]]

To generate a table of contents for a set of pages, simply pass them as comma separated arguments to the TOC macro:

[[TOC(TracGuide, TracInstall, TracUpgrade, TracIni, TracAdmin, TracBackup,
      TracLogging, TracPermissions, TracWiki, WikiFormatting, TracBrowser,
      TracRoadmap, TracChangeset, TracTickets, TracReports, TracQuery,
      TracTimeline, TracRss, TracNotification)]]

A wildcard * can be used to fetch a sorted list of all pages starting with the preceding page name stub:

[[TOC(Trac*, WikiFormatting, WikiMacros)]]

The following control arguments change the default behaviour of the TOC macro:

Argument	Description
heading=<x>	Override the default heading of "Table of Contents"
noheading	Suppress display of the heading.
depth=<n>	Display headings of subsequent pages to a maximum depth of <n>.
inline	Display TOC inline rather than as a side-bar.
sectionindex	Only display the page name and title of each page in the wiki section.
titleindex	Only display the page name and title of each page, similar to TitleIndex.
notitle	Suppress display of page title.
reverse	Display TOC sorted in reverse order, since 0.11.0.0.4.

For titleindex argument, an empty pagelist will evaluate to all pages:

[[TOC(titleindex, notitle, heading=All pages)]]

The sectionindex argument allows a title index to be generated for all pages in a given section of the wiki. A section is defined by wiki page name, using / as a section level delimiter (like directories in a file system). Giving / or * as the page name produces the same result as titleindex (title of all pages). If a page name ends with a /, only children of this page will be processed. Otherwise, the page given in the argument is also included, if it exists. For sectionindex argument, an empty pagelist will evaluate to all page below the same parent as the current page:

[[TOC(sectionindex, notitle, heading=This section pages)]]

As an example of the usage of this macro:

[[TOC(inline, heading=Trac Table of Contents, TracGuide, TracInstall, depth=2,
 TracLogging, depth=99, TracPermissions)]]

On the right you can see the TOC macro version of the default TracGuideToc macro.

Alternative: Trac 0.12 has the PageOutline macro built-in, which can produce output identical to the simpler use cases for the TOC macro. For example, this is equivalent to the no-argument form of TOC:

[[PageOutline(2-5, Table of Contents, floated)]]
