Could be useful: http://ocpsoft.com/prettytime/ Idea of usage: For ex we could use that to show the last modified document dates for dates in the past week (for ex): "Document created 2 days ago" It's in the maven central repo and it's under LGPL -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Velocity format date

by Hamster

I'm overlooking something small... How can I format dates with velocity? {{velocity}} #set($myDate = $doc.getContentUpdateDate()) Last updated at $date.format('medium',$myDate) Last updated at $date.format('yyyy-MM-dd',$myDate) {{/velocity}} Both $date.format are not working! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Velocity-format-date-tp7580272.html Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Change the Class Fan-Out Complexity maximum value in our checkstyle configuration

by Sergiu Dumitriu

Hi devs, Short version: I'd like to increase the allowed maximum value for the Class Fan-Out Complexity checkstyle rule from 20 to 25, since a bare component already uses 1 to 4 imports, and the 20 rule was set before we had components. Long version: The Class Fan-Out Complexity metric measures how many other classes are used by a class. Keeping this to a small value is a good goal, since it favors loose-coupling, small and independent classes, and makes it harder to put more than one responsibility in a single class. However, there are several problems: One is that this counts utility classes and interfaces, such as java.util.List, and a fairly complex class uses more than one such utility class; they usually come in pairs (the interface and the implementation). And more and more classes are using apache-commons utilities like StringUtils or IOUtils, which are just shortcut helper methods that could be implemented in a few lines of code, so we're trading one import for reduced code complexity, which is a good thing, even though apparently it's increasing the Fan-Out measure. Another is that a bare Initializable component implementation will import: - its component role interface - Initializable and InitializationException - Logger And since good libraries also follow the "many small classes" paradigm, barely using some of our dependencies will add a lot of imports. For example, the LucenePlugin has 25 org.apache.lucene.* imports just for initializing the server and sending search requests. While the current maximum, 20, is enough for the majority of our classes and interfaces, I've found myself often enough trying to refactor a class to get down from 23 or even 21 imports, and usually I find myself doing ugly tricks, keeping the actual code complexity the same or even worse. Best case is that I extract an extra class that just contains the non-public utility methods that were initially in the component implementation, but that class is meaningless out of the context of its parent class, so that is also a bad decision, IMHO. So, I propose to increase the Fan-Out limit to 25, while keeping the requirement that classes should be kept as small as possible. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

[xwiki-devs] [GSOC] [REMINDER] Mid-term evaluation deadline

by Eduard Moraru

Hello GSoC students and mentors, I would like to remind you that this week (9-13 July) is the mid-term evaluation where it is decided if the student is on track and if (s)he should pass or fail. The deadline [1] is 19:00 UTC on 13 July. = Students = 1. Please make sure that your project's page [2] is updated and that the *progress* field contains an up to date description of your current progress/status/etc. This is important for those that did not follow your evolution closely and it is also useful for you to better manage your work/time. It might also contribute to your evaluation, so please do not neglect it. 2. Please make sure that you fill in the mid-term evaluation form on Google's melange [3]. Google is being pretty strict about it this year, so make sure you don`t forget to do it before the deadline. = Mentors = 1. Please make sure that you evaluate your student's current work on Google's melange [3]. I hope you`ve enjoyed the first part of GSoC at XWiki. Hope to see you for the second one with shiny and successful projects ;) Thanks, Eduard ---------- [1] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2012 [2] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/WebHome#HSelectedPro… [3] http://www.google-melange.com

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Adding JS behaviors to dynamically inserted HTML

by Sergiu Dumitriu

Hi devs, Short story: Whenever adding new HTML content to the document, like loading the content of a modal popup, or refreshing the Activity stream, an 'xwiki:dom:updated' event should be fired, sending the list of added elements in the even memo. All standard behaviors should also monitor these events and enhance the newly inserted HTML content, for example adding support for the suggestDocuments, withTip or maximizable behavior classnames. Long story: One of the good features of XWiki is that we have the notion of "behavior classnames", CSS class names that attach a certain behavior to the affected element. This usually works by looking for such elements when the DOM is loaded ('xwiki:dom:loaded' event) and enhancing them with the requested behavior. The problem is that this behavior isn't automatically added for elements inserted in the DOM after the initial xwiki:dom:loaded event, which means that the code that inserted those new elements in the DOM tree must also take extra steps to add the desired behavior, usually with copy/paste, firing custom events or by re-sending the xwiki:dom:loaded event (which is wrong). I'd like to propose a new standard, the 'xwiki:dom:updated' event. This works in two ways: 1. All the code that inserts new elements will fire such an event, sending the list of new HTML elements in the 'elements' field of the event memo. For example: > document.fire('xwiki:dom:udated', {'elements': [dialog.dialogBox._x_contentPlug]}); The 'elements' field must always be a list, even if only one root element is inserted, so that adding a set of items (<li> or <tr> elements, for example) is well supported. 2. All code that adds behavior to classnames must also listen to this event and enhance the sub-elements that have been inserted. For example: > document.observe('xwiki:dom:udated', function(event) { > event.memo.elements.each(function(element) { > $(element).select('input.withTip').each(function(input) { > input.observe... > }); > }); > }); I wonder if we should also list the removed elements. In general this would be needed to cleanup resources, but as far as I know Prototype can take care of its own cleanup, without any manual steps needed. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

[xwiki-devs] Change to the commons test framework for Mocking Component Test Cases

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Over the weekend I've brought one change to xwiki-commons-test. Now by default when you write a unit test that extends AbstractMockingComponentTestCase there will be no component registered against the component manager except those mocked automatically by the @MockingRequirement annotation. This has 2 advantages: * This is the spirit of AbstractMockingComponentTestCase since they're supposed to mock all dependencies and define their behaviors * It makes the tests up to 10 times faster If you really need to register some components, use the {@link ComponentList} annotation and if you really really need to register all components (it takes time) then use {@link AllComponents}. Thanks -Vincent
