[xwiki-devs] [proposal] XWiki Query Language implementation

by Artem Melentyev

Hi, devs. I would like to discuss about the new xwiki query language. http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/XWikiQueryLanguage We need to choose a syntax and data model of the query language There are some examples in http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/XWiki+Query+Language+Specificati… I already have a prototype based on my JPQL parser (SableCC based) and hql generator. It is quite easy to modify syntax and generator. Results of my query parser research in the end of the message. I propose: 0) Name: XWiki Query Language, XWQL as a name of the new language. 1) Data Model: Choose query method #1 from specification http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/XWiki+Query+Language+Specificati… with corrections: add Document as a virtual class for our XWikiDocument. use "docalias.XWiki.ClassName instead" of "XWiki.ClassName". docalias is some alias for Document. add optional select clause. example: "select doc.fullName from Document as doc, doc.XWiki.XWikiUsers as user where user.email like '%xwiki.com' and doc.author=:username" "select doc.fullName from Document as doc" may be omitted. It will be added if there is no Document in query statement. So "from doc.XWiki.XWikiUsers as user" is correct query statement. It is possible to use several documents and objects in one query. Attachment, Class, and other xwiki entities will be added later if needed. 2) Syntax: XWQL will be JPQL subset. (hint: JPQL is part of Java Persistance API standard, JSR#317. HQL is a superset of JPQL. Hibernate support JPA) All JPQL features and all hibernate data model will be accessible for hibernate store. But it is not true for JCR store. Only described data model will be available for XWQL on JCRStore. (But we may add some extensions later) In JCRv2 will not work (JCRSQL2 constraint): arithmetic expressions (+-*/) aggregation funtions (max,min,sum,avg) some other functions In JCRv1 also will not work (XPath constraint): query on several documents (from Document as doc1, Document as doc2) Some JPQL limitations compared with HQL: no arithmetic expressions (+-*/) in select clause aliases at from clause are mandatory (from Document as alias) So the main idea is to use simple JPQL preprocessor to rewrite virtual data model to real. This is quite easy for HQL and JCRSQL2. But it is hard(but doable) for JCRv1 XPath. WDYT? Appendix: I researched a many of query engines and found nothing appropriate. All query engines/parsers is either very specific or cannot be used standalone or cannot be used as a preprocessor. JCRSQL2 language parser from Jackrabbit is still unusable. Next I researched a parser generators and found that SableCC is best choose for my needs. Other tools (ANTLR, JavaCC, Cup, Beaver) requires much more hand work to write parse tree (AST) and preprocessors (Visitors and ast.toString). JTB and JJTree also generate AST and visitors, but SableCC generated code is much more clean. SableCC generate all of this from one clear grammar file. Maybe it is not as perfect as hand-written one, but it is quite suitable. Reason to choose sql-like syntax: XPath isn't still much spread. XPath language is deprecated in JCRv2. JCRv2 uses JCRSQL2 and criteria-like AQM instead. JCRSQL2 is much more powerful (in expression sense) than JCR's XPath and JCRSQL1. -- Artem Melentyev

[xwiki-devs] Office converter status

by Vincent Massol

Hi Wang, Could you tell us what's the status of the office converter and whether there's any pending patches or things for me to apply? I've tried using it tonight using the application and it didn't work too well both in XHTML and in wiki format. The main problem is that the cleaning is not good enough. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Accordion Menu Resize Dynamically

by Jain, Prachi

Hi All, By mistake I posted my query in JIRA tracker. From there I got the method to post the queries. My requirement is to set the Accordion Menu and Content Area according to screen resolution(available Height) I have done for content area. Now i have to do for accordion menu. In left panel, I have navigation menu which displays the available spaces and pages within each space . For Accordion effect on this menu, i have created the object of accordion. as under:- <script type="text/javascript"> var obj = {div:'xwikinav',height:document.body.parentNode.clientHeight - (103 + ($mycount *22)), no:$spacecount}; var acc = createAccordion(obj); </script> I have set the height dynamically instead of hardcoded value. $mycount is no of spaces. With this kind of code I get menu as per available height. But moment i resize by pressing F11 key, my content area is resized but the menu is not resized. I understand that, i need to set the height as per above on window.resize event viz. window.resize = currentlyexpandedaccordion.height=document.body.parentNode.clientHeight - (103 + ($mycount *22)) But i dont know how to get the accordion or div which is in expanded state. I even tried. like while creating the accordion, i returned the object. and then on window.resize event , acc.options.defaultHeight= document.body.parentNode.clientHeight - (103 + ($mycount *22)) Please help...I have tried all approches...I am stuck.. Will appreciate your valuable inputs.

[xwiki-devs] [Lucene-Plugin] Input wanted on some enhancements

by David Ward

I am currently adding some enhancements to the Lucene plugin for Curriki, and have a few questions. I have submitted a patch for XPLUCENE-25 in order to not index password fields, the patch seems to have been accepted by Sergiu (with some adjustments) and committed. The other patch (XPLUCENE-26) is to allow better sorting of results. The issue is that when sorting by a field that has been tokenzied by Lucene the sorting is by any of the tokens (seemingly random), so titles for example are sorted by random words within the title. The patch that I have created so far increases the size of the index by about 50% though (indexing non-tokenized versions of each object field) and I am not sure if that is acceptable to the XWiki community at large. One item that I noted was that the object data is being stored in the index, but there does not seem to be anything in the SearchResult interface that allows for getting the values back. Is there a reason the data is stored? I see two options here, first would be to add a method in SearchResult that lets one get the object data out (but that ends up having security issues for pages that one would not normally be able to see), the other would be to just index the data and not store it (which should reduce the index size). Any thoughts on the best direction here? The last question I have is how do I create a string array (String[]) in a velocity script so that I can have a secondary sort column? Velocity seems to create object arrays but the LucenePluginApi requires a string array for the sortField argument of getSearchResults. Any comments/input/suggestions/answers are welcome. David --

[xwiki-devs] [Solution] xWiki 1.5 on MSSQL 2000 & 2005

by Liwoj

Hi I'm just managed to install xWiki 1.5 against Microsoft SQL Server 2005 It wasn't trivial so i have few things to say: 1) hbm.xml file (Hibernate mapping) file which is as a download on http://n2.nabble.com/file/n841396/xwiki.mssql_1.5.hbm.xml xwiki.mssql_1.5.hbm.xml http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationMSSQL http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationMSSQL is outdated. It works only for xWiki 1.4 and required some modifications (based on http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/platform/core/tags/xwiki-core-1.5/xwiki-… http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/platform/core/tags/xwiki-core-1.5/xwiki-… ) to work with 1.5 I'm attaching mapping to my post. 2) First note on MSSQL Installation guide mentioned before is not correct. Text types wasn't depreciated in MSSQL 2005, only marked as obsoleted. So attached mapping works ok on both MSSQL 2000&2005 HTH -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/-Solution--xWiki-1.5-on-MSSQL-2000---2005-tp841396p841… Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Move the XE 1.6M2 release date to next Wednesday

by Vincent Massol

Hi, Sergiu has asked us on IRC if we could postpone the 1.6M2 release a bit so we're now proposing to release it on Wednesday morning (the 10th) which means all commits should be done for Tuesday afternoon at latest, including running verification tests that all work fine. Each of the committers who have committed stuff should take the time Tuesday afternoon to run XE and verify that the features they have committed work fine as expected. ok with everyone? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Compiling XWiki enterprise with changes in Platform after changes in SVN

by Tiago Rinck Caveden

Hello all! After the recent changes on the SVN directories, how can I compile the XWiki Enterprise using the changes I have done on XWiki Platform? When I execute the compile it downloads a pre-compiled build of XWiki Platform. Thank you, -- Tiago Rinck Caveden http://caveden.multiply.com
