This plugin allows you to add structured data to any DokuWiki page. Think about this data as additional named attributes. Those attributes can then be queried and aggregated. The plugin is similar to what was done here for the repository plugin but its internals are very different to it.

You might want to consider using the spiritual successor to this plugin: struct Plugin

Search and install the plugin using the Extension Manager. Refer to Plugins on how to install plugins manually.

Be sure to update the sqlite plugin and follow its instructions on sqlite version upgrades.

Since 2010-03-22, the data plugin uses the sqlite helper plugin. Therefore, the database file location and structure changed. If you want to keep your old database, you have to perform the following steps prior to upgrading the data plugin:

1. Install the sqlite plugin
2. Move the file data/cache/dataplugin.sqlite to data/meta/data.sqlite
3. Perform the following SQL statements on the database (for example using the sqlite plugin’s admin page)

   CREATE TABLE opts (opt,val);
   CREATE UNIQUE INDEX idx_opt ON opts(opt);
   INSERT INTO opts VALUES ('dbversion', 1);

4. Upgrade the data plugin

If you upgraded the data plugin before these steps, a blank data.sqlite has been created and you have to copy the data/cache/dataplugin.sqlite over the existing data/meta/data.sqlite.

This plugin depends on multiple parts, each having a similar syntax. The syntax defines a block with various key/value pairs configuring the behaviour of the plugin part. The following parts are available:

This part is used to add structured data to a page. All data entered here is tied to the page. So you can use it only once on a page¹⁾. Let's start with an example:
