[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Removing comments, attachments, etc. tabs (#docextra) in default applications WebHome

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi, #docextra tabs are particular important for content pages where users are encouraged to comment, attach, revise history, etc. But since XWiki is more than a wiki and the application usage has expanded, we removed the #docextra tab from many XWiki Contrib applications, like: File Manager, Forum, Calendar, etc. The logic behind was that the applications have as main purpose the management of applications entities, not commenting for example. Also with the Flamingo Skin, the shortcuts to Comments, Attachments, etc. can be found in the 'More actions' menu. So, my question to you is: What do you think about removing the #docextra also for default/bundled applications like: - Blog.WebHome - Dashboard.WebHome - Panels.WebHome - Scheduler.WebHome - Stats.WebHome - Main.WebHome? If we adopt this practice we could document it on: http://contrib.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome#HApplicationDesign or http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ApplicationDevelopmentBestPra… Thanks, Caty

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, I’ve just committed a quote macro in rendering but I think it should an external extension since the real solution is to improve the wiki syntax to support block content. I’m just requesting a github repo on contrib. Name: macro-quote Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Content menus re-organization

by Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau

Hi. With 7.2, the content menus have changed a lot. The pain point is that we have a too much crowded "more actions" menu. Some discussions have already been done on this jira issue: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12587 Caty have created a design page to re-organize the menus: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/NestedMenuReorganization I'm in favor of the solution 1.2. So: * -0 for solution 1.1 since the viewers are not what we use the most (thanks to the extra tabs on the bottom) and it gives them too much importance * +1 for solution 1.2, even if we might encounter some difficulties saying if an item is a base action or an advanced one. * 0 for option A (too much clicks), but on the other hand I don't have an alternative to propose. * +1 for option B. The jira issue is already created ( http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12636) and I think nobody would be opposed to this. * +0 for option C. The browser already have this ability, and yes, it implies the hiding of the panels (thanks to some CSS we have). However, I remember a client using this feature for a convoluted use-case: include a light wiki page in an other website via an iframe. Anyway, we could still keep the viewer but remove the link. * +1 for D. I know that security through obscurity is not the best, but it disturbs me to let an access to the source code of any wiki page, including not-well-done applications created by users.

[xwiki-devs] [Contrib] XWebIDE Improvements

by Yann Flory

Hello devs, Recently, a new version of the XWebIDE ( http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XWebIDE+Application) has been published which added the ability to work with Nested spaces in the application. In order to progress with the development of the extension, we've made a list of future relevant features to add to the application. We'd now like to have your opinion about the importance of each one of them (order the features based on their priority) and your ideas for new ones. You can find the list and add your vote in the table in the design wiki : http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/XWebIDE+Application+Improve… We'd also like to know what are the required features which make you believe you'll use the application in the future. And feel free to provide any other feedback you may have about the current version of the XWebIDE application. Thanks, Yann

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] New testing framework to write unit test of wiki pages

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, In the past few days I’ve written the first version of a test framework to allow unit testing wiki pages in our build (see http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12643). The advantages are: * No running XWiki required * Relatively fast to execute (<2s) and much faster than functional tests Some remarks: * It’s not meant to replace functional tests * What pushed me to work on this was that I wanted to provide a test for XWIKI-11524 (Do not display hidden documents in feeds) which I fixed a week ago or so but at the time I couldn’t do that easily. I would have had to write a functional tests and 1) there was no test at all existing and setting up the scaffolding is a bit heavy for this small use case 2) I didn’t want to penalize our build by a minute more or so just to validate that a “hidden/document” query filter is executed... Now it’s still an experiment at this stage as I don’t know how easy or hard it’ll be when writing unit tests for other pages and we’ll need to add more component declarations and setup for sure. On this topic we will need to start developing ComponentList annotation packs probably in order to not slow down execution of all wiki page tests. Let me know what you think and in case nobody likes it we can always remove it and move it to contrib. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Improve the management of inexistent WebHome with children

by Denis Gervalle

Hi devs, I am opening this discussion to move the discussion started in an issue (XWIKI-12628) to its proper place, the ML. (Discussing into JIRA is very bad since it lower the audience, we tend to have done it too much recently). So the issue is that, in the Nested Document concept, we can create children to inexistent (WebHome) page. This introduce some abnormalities: - Administering inexistent page (including page rights, see http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12629) - Children of inexistent page (see http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12628 ) Since we agree that having nodes in the tree of pages is fine without having the intermediate document created, we definitely need to better show this concept to the final user. It would be a pain to explain to a user that access rights for page children of an inexistent page is administrable from that inexistent page. It is also very poor when you navigate from the breadcrumb to a inexistent page as a normal user to reach "The requested page could not be found." with no way to navigate further. These inexistent page are not necessarily invisible, there is links to them, and showing that as "error" page looks inappropriate IMO. So there is probably a couple of things we could do to improve this: A) display the list of children in addition to the actual message B) display a "default" and nice (not an error) dashboard on them that allow navigation (with a button for those that can edit, to create the page) C) create them all the time, with the dashboard above by default D) do not propose links to those page in the breadcrumb to users without edit right on them ? E) ... (please add more idea) I am in favor of B) currently, since I do not think we are in an "error" case like A) seems to expose. I am wondering if D) could be useful as well to limit navigation to those page or not for user that will not find them so useful... but it may exists opposite UC. WDYT ? -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa - CEO
