Hi devs, We didn't manage to release 5.3M1 on time (1 week delay..) and this leaves only 1 week for M2 which is not enough for me to finish my work on Solr (see http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Roadmaps/WebHome ) so I propose to take 1 week from RC1: 5.3M2: 11th of November (was 4th) 5.3RC1: 18th of November 5.3Final: 25th of November WDYT? Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] Create Object by Default with a new Page

by Matthias Wegner

Hi, i didnt find a documentation for creating an XObject to a Wiki-Page when a new Page is created. I think it must something like that, but who do i place it? EntityReference entRef = doc.resolveClassReference("Space.WhateverClass"); int objectIndex = doc.createXObject(entRef, getXWikiContext()); BaseObject o = doc.getXObjects(entRef).get(objectIndex); I know i can create a new object and page by velocity (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Create+Page+With+Object), but i want to add a default and predefined object when a user add a new page. Is there a way to do this from plugin-side?

[xwiki-devs] Object Handling

by Matthias Wegner

Hello, i programmed some Objects which can be related to any page. Then i draw a graph (see an example at http://jsfiddle.net/7aMBr/3/). I programmed it as a service which creates a html5-canvas and the javascript for the drawing (Here a screen http://s1.directupload.net/file/d/3421/3a4twrov_jpg.htm). Is is done with {{velocity}} $services.graph.calculate(640, 320, "Hierarchic") {{/velocity}} I defined some type-classes which can predefine the node or edge style, for example the icon or the arrow layout (here a preview http://s14.directupload.net/file/d/3421/hxkwe5bs_jpg.htm). Here now my questions: 1. I use a defined id which uses Space.PageName.NodeLabel (ObjectUUID). This references the Graph-Elements to others or the types. Everything works fine, but now i realised that the change of the label in the object forces an error in the ClassBuilder because all depended elements did't realize the change. Is there a objectchange listener i can use for every change? 2. I programmed also a remove- and create-method in the ScriptService. As you can see in one picture i defined a custom menubar. So i want to create a link which can start a service. Is that possible? {{velocity}} $services.graph.removeNode("Main.Test.N2 (94c5fe2d-a92f-413e-ba1d-efc35bb7f84f)") {{/velocity}} Regards, Matthias -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Object-Handling-tp7587724.html Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] From Signed Scripts to Signable Macros

by Denis Gervalle

Hi devs, As you may know, I have taken over the work done by Thomas Delafosse regarding security in XWiki, and in particular, a very good idea initially proposed by Alex Busenius in the early days of the security mailing list in June 2010, replacing PR by Signed Scripts ! A lot of discussions had already been done around the subject, mainly on the security mailing list and Thomas D. has written a very interesting PoC that demonstrate the feasibility and also some drawbacks and issues with our initial concept. I have therefore reviewed all those information, and I have try to draw a conclusion that I am now sharing with you in an open design proposal: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/SignedScripts I know you are all really busy with your stuffs and that this is not a short document, but introduction of this change in XWiki will not be a small event, and it may become really difficult to properly evolve if we made it wrong. So I strongly insist that all of you read this proposal and comment on any point that looks odd. For those who would not be at ease with cryptographic matters, a small cryptographic introduction is also included, so (I hope) you may understand the document. There are still some open points in the proposal, marked TODO, on which I would be please to receive your suggestions. I will continue to evolve the proposal based on your comments, until we reach an acceptable solution, but I also start the implementation. Thanks in advance for your time, -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa - CEO

[xwiki-devs] Questions about migration path when documents or macros are renamed

by Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau

Hi! I have two jira issues that I need to fix for 5.3: * http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9558 - Rename {{workspaces /}} gadget to {{wikis /}} * http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9491 - Rename "WorkspaceInformationPanel" to "WikiInformationPanel" The implementation is very trivial. In both cases I just rename a document, and in one case I only change the field "name" of the WikiMacro. But how do we handle upgrade? A: If someone has used the {{workspaces /}} macro in her content, she will not see the expected result anymore. B: If WorkspaceInformationPanel is used in a layout, should we automatically update this layout to use WikiInformationPanel? Do we consider we should let the user fix this issues herself, or should we provide an automatic solution to that? If so, how could we do? Thanks for your help, Louis-Marie.

[xwiki-devs] [Discussion] Should technical pages hide the bottom tabs?

by Sergiu Dumitriu

Hi devs, For content pages, the bottom tabs (comments, attachments, history, information) are very useful features. But does it make sense to keep those active for very technical pages? For example, when viewing details about a tag, (Main/Tags?do=viewTag), why should people be allowed to comment? They might wrongly think that they're commenting on a tag, but that's just one complex page that handles almost everything about tags, so a comment like "this tag has a typo" doesn't help at all. Other pages should have no bottom tabs as well: user directory, blog category management, the whole scheduler space, share by email... While the homepage is a technical page (by default), it does make sense to leave the comments active, since it's the entry point for every user (although I think that the messaging system is a better way to send global messages). IMO, the advantage is that we're hiding actions that are rarely useful, but could be misused. The disadvantage is that we're breaking the universality of the UI. I'm +1 for hiding, fewer mis-usable features is always better. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
