[xwiki-devs] xwiki-contrib-websocket -- I'd like to move it to contrib and release into maven.xwiki.org

by Caleb James DeLisle

Hi, I just finished working on XWiki/WebSocket integration which allows components which implement XWikiWebSocketHandler and they will be called when a user creates a WebSocket connection to the wiki. Now I'd like some permission and guidance on getting this published as an extension, unfortunately I was a little bit too modular so I can't just upload a .jar and I will have to publish this in maven.xwiki.org What do people think about transferring this to xwiki-contrib and can anyone give me some advice about publishing an extension through maven? For reference, this is the code: https://github.com/cjdelisle/xwiki-contrib-websocket Thanks, Caleb

[xwiki-devs] Rule for configuration property naming in documentation

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi guys, A long time ago I sent a vote for naming configuration property http://markmail.org/thread/xzz2gqmexkgargbz And this is what has been mostly used in xwiki.properties… However some developers have not followed the existing rules. For example: # solr.embedded.home=/var/local/xwiki/solr # solr.remote.url=http://localhost:8983/solr # solr.indexer.batch.size=50 # solr.indexer.batch.maxLength=10000 # solr.indexer.queue.capacity=100000 This is a pity since it’s hard to change a property. I have now taken the time to document it in our dev practices at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/DevelopmentPractices#HConfigu… If some dev has an issue with this please raise it here. If not, please make sure to follow it from now on. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Issues with 5.2.3 Snapshot

by Sorin Burjan

Hello developers, I have made some tests today the 5.2.3-SNAPSHOT version, and I found out some issues which I don't have on a 5.2.2 install. On a 5.2.2 there is thew following behavior - create test subwiki as "Open" and Admin as creator. * No DW kick in, everything looks ok on the subwiki 5.2.3-SNAPSHOT - create test subwiki as "Open" and Admin as creator. * DW kicks in and asks me if this is an upgrade or not. It does not ask for version. * "Are you performing an upgrade? There are currently 291 documents in the database which indicates this is not a new install. " * Select: "No, this is a new install" * Merge conflicts on pages: XWiki.XWikiAdminGroup, XWiki.XWikiAllGroup, XWiki.XWikiPreferences, XWiki.DefaultSkin, XWiki.SearchSuggestConfig, ColorThemes.WebPreferences, XWiki.WebPreferences * Even that I created the subwiki as Admin, after finishing with the DW, I have the Join button in the Wiki Information panel. * I have an Admin user which is the member of the subwiki, but it seems to be a local Admin. I created the wiki as the global Admin. * Logging off and Logging back in on the subwiki with Admin, I am still logged as the Global Admin, and still not listed as a member of the subwiki. * On the homepage of the subwiki, I have the following text: "You are a member of this wiki. $services.localization.render('platform.workspace.currentUserCanLeave', $leaveUrl)" Just wanted to point these issues out before we release 5.2.3. Regards, Sorin B.

[xwiki-devs] Where is the documentation for the Confluence importer?

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi Thomas, I wanted to point someone to our documentation for the new Confluence importer but I couldn’t find documentation for it. All I’ve found was http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XWiki+Platform+-+Wiki+… which is too technical and doesn’t contain much information. I think we need a user-friendly documentation for the Confluence importer that appears in the XE feature list on http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Features Also we should comment on http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Convert+Confluence+to+… to add an {{info}} message to explain there’s now a better way, no? WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] XWiki 6.x Cycle Theme

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, We’re getting close to the end of the 5.x cycle with 5.4 and we need to find a new theme for 6.x. At XWiki SAS we’ve had an internal meeting to brainstorm about what that theme could be and we’ve come up with the following idea: Theme motto: “Slick and Slim” Explanations: * Performance improvements across the board: page load time, scalability, activity stream rewrite, memory usage rationalization * Introduce the flavor mechanism (as already discussed here) with the idea of removing the maximum of extensions from the base and be able to build a minimal, lightweight wiki + create a few flavors (as already discussed here too). * Slickiness achieved with things like new skin (see the proposal from Caty) + syntax highlighting + autocompletion + easier rights UI + etc… In short we’ve realized that XWiki has grown along the years and it’s becoming a bit heavyweight in various aspects. So the idea would be to focus on performances + ease of use to slim it down and ensure it’s kicking fast! Of course, as usual, I’m sure there’ll be other things being worked on, but the idea would be to try our maximum to work within this theme. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [ANN] Welcome our new committer Clemens Robbenhaar

by Thomas Mortagne

Hi xwikiers, The committers discussed and voted to include Clemens Robbenhaar in the team which he agreed so a warm welcome to him ! He has been very active since he started working on XWiki, he already spend a lot of time answering questions on the mailing list and on IRC (more than me I think). On the technical aspect everything I saw from him was good and very clean and he is clearly no afraid to look at advanced stuff (he spent a long time last month trying to help Kaisen and Denis on migration stuff which I'm sure was not that critically related to his own work). Note that he is working on XWiki for EsPresto AG (don't forget to add it to http://main.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Support). I'm sure he will be great addition to the team and it's always a nice bonus to see non XWiki SAS members so active ;) Welcome ! -- Thomas Mortagne
