[xwiki-devs] Build improvement actions

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, We've had a meeting with Marius, Thomas and myself and we brainstormed about what to improve in our builds and we've come up with the following actions: 1- create twitter account for xwiki.org and tweet about releases (basically tweet links to blog posts). Category: Release Process improvement. Who: Vincent Massol 2- Refactor distribution for installers to share more. Who: Thomas Mortagne 3- Check latest version of izpack. Who: Marius 4- Configure nexus to cache other repos → speed improvement. Who: Vincent Massol 5- Add definition xwiki remote repo to top level repos in github. Who: Vincent Massol 6- Define a location for passwords. Who: Thomas Mortagne 7- Publish with commons and rendering on central repo. Who: ? I've started to work on items 4 and 5 and will do 1 soon. Also I've analyzed 7 and there's only 1 external reps not available in the Maven Central Repo: <groupId>org.reflections</groupId> <artifactId>reflections</artifactId> It should be pretty easy to submit it using https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Repository/Uploading+3rd-party+Artifacts+… To publish our artifacts to the central repo I propose to use Sonatype OSS service, see https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Repository/Sonatype+OSS+Maven+Repository+… Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] DBStringList property and checkbox functionality example.

by Karel Gardas

Hello, is there any example which shows usage of DBStringList property together with support for selecting multiple values of this property (by for example using checkboxes) and also showing how such values are later obtained from the property? I'm asking since I'm not sure if property is able to kind of change into property list (probably) and also I'm fighting with this and I'm still not able to obtain more than one value from returned property object. Thanks! Karel

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] New thumbnails module

by Jerome Velociter

Hello again, I would like to introduce a new module in platform : xwiki-platform-thumbnails. The idea of the module is to provide means of handling thumbnails in XWiki. Right now the main purpose is to expose APIs to retrieve thumbnails URLs for images stored as attachments. This module first use will be to generate thumbnails of user avatars. In this scenario, it will also introduce a performance improvement compared to today's way of computing avatar URLS, since the module caches both the property values (the fact that user X has set an avatar Z.png) and the thumbnail URL for this avatar. I've already pushed it in a feature branch/. You can check in particular https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/3f5aa1e24ba00fcc939b73b8f9ba… and all commits in the branch at https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commits/feature-thumbnails Let me know what you think. -- Jerome Velociter Winesquare http://www.winesquare.net/

[xwiki-devs] [Discussion] Generate and publish sources for snapshot builds in the CI

by Eduard Moraru

Hi devs, I was wondering why we don`t generate source artefacts for snapshots, just like we do for final versions? While I do agree that final versions are the important ones, it's often very annoying to have to manually add sources from the filesystem (assuming you have cloned locally the git repo) for all the maven modules that you want to see the code or even the javadoc or method parameter names. For final releases we don`t have that problem because Eclipse and the Maven plugin (for example) can automatically download the sources in the background providing an effortless process. However, while working with snapshots, you are nagged continuously that the sources can not be found automatically and you experience a bit of unneeded frustration :). Not only that Would it be that much of a storage penalty for the extra sources jars to accompany the snapshot builds? Would it be that much of a build time penalty for actually generating source builds for each artefact? WDYT? Thanks, Eduard

[xwiki-devs] Small widget possibly of interest : ajaxify forms in popups

by Jerome Velociter

Hi all, I've written a small Ajax widget for XWiki that magically ajaxifies a form in a modal popup. Right now I have no use for it directly in XWiki, but I though it would worth advertising it here as this might come handy at some point for the platform. It even works with multipart forms. The widget is here : https://gist.github.com/1184560 Regards, -- Jérôme Velociter Winesquare http://www.winesquare.net/

[xwiki-devs] Sheets and programming rights

by Marius Dumitru Florea

Hi devs, I need your feedback regarding two use cases: (A) /view/Space1/PageWithPR?sheet=Space2.SheetWithoutPR Drop permissions when rendering the sheet, right? (B) /view/Space1/PageWithoutPR?sheet=Space2.SheetWithPR How often did you write class/document sheets requiring programming rights? I don't think it's possible/safe to keep PageWithoutPR as context document and render SheetWithPR using programming rights. WDYT? Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] How to check if a specific document has programming rights?

by Marius Dumitru Florea

Hi devs, I tried to use: $someDoc.hasProgrammingRights() but unfortunately this method checks the current/context document, not the one on which it is called. The code is in com.xpn.xwiki.api.Api: /** * Check if the current document has programming rights, meaning that it was last saved by a user with the * programming right globally granted. * * @return <tt>true</tt> if the current document has the Programming right or <tt>false</tt> otherwise. */ public boolean hasProgrammingRights() { com.xpn.xwiki.XWiki xwiki = this.context.getWiki(); return xwiki.getRightService().hasProgrammingRights(this.context); } So how do you check if a specific document has programming rights? AFAICS I need to either access the rights service or change the context document, but both require programming rights.. How can I check programming rights without needing them? Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] New bridge APIs

by Jerome Velociter

Hello devs, I've been working on the support of pretty thumbnails picture for XE (other mail coming on later). I've had the need for a couple of new bridge APIs, namely in DocumentAccessBridge : int getObjectNumber(DocumentReference documentReference, DocumentReference classReference, String parameterName, String valueToMatch); to get the number of the first object that has a property with a certain value in a document. Sort of similar to com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document#getObject(String, String, String) Object getProperty(DocumentReference documentReference, DocumentReference classReference, int objectNumber, String propertyName); to get the value of a property for the Nth object of a class in a document (to be used in combination with the previous one for example). and finally : Object getProperty(ObjectReference objectReference, String propertyName); Object getProperty(ObjectPropertyReference objectPropertyReference); two new APIs to get properties value based both on object reference + property name, or just property reference Let me know what you think My +1 -- Jerome Velociter Winesquare http://www.winesquare.net/
