[xwiki-devs] Is there an XWiki Skin suitable for use on Mobile Device?

by Niels Mayer

One that works, perhaps with http://www.forum.nokia.com/Develop/Web/ and allows wiki pages to be viewed and edited without a lot of extra columns, menus, etc. Does it make sense for XWiki to automatically determine screen resolution and apply a "small screen" skin for those browsing from mobile devices? Thanks, Niels http://nielsmayer.com

[xwiki-devs] extracting meta data

by [Ricardo Rodriguez] eBioTIC.

Hi! Please, do we have methods to extract meta data from attached files in formats like PDF, TIFF, DOC,...? Availability of such a data some times relies on user input, but other times, like size and channels information in TIFF files, are built in data that could be/are really useful for designing scripts to show pictures. Thanks! Ricardo -- Ricardo Rodríguez CTO eBioTIC. Life Sciences, Data Modeling and Information Management Systems

[xwiki-devs] [proposal] Move xwiki-plugin-invitationmanager and xwiki-plugin-spacemanager to contrib/retired.

by Caleb James DeLisle

Now that InvitationManager is replaced with the Invitation Application and XWorkspaces has been retired, the only "living" dependency on InvitationManager or SpaceManager is Curriki. I propose we: 1. Move these projects to contrib/retired. 2. Stop building them in Hudson. WDYT? Caleb

[xwiki-devs] [proposal] Establish code style rule for trailing whitespace.

by Caleb James DeLisle

I would like to propose establishing a documented rule for trailing whitespace which follows the current defacto standard laid out by the IDE's. Trailing whitespace in java files is unacceptable except in an empty line in a javadoc comment in which case a single space is required. /** * My Cool Method. * <----- trailing whitespace goes here. * @param something... */ WDYT?

Re: [xwiki-devs] [discussion] Filesystem vs. database attachment storage. Re: [proposal] New database table binarychunk, interface c.x.x.store.BinaryStore, and interface c.x.x.doc.BinaryObject

by Ludovic Dubost

As a summary: I'm +1 with alternate storage mecanisms as long as we can turn them on optionnally. The storage systems should be: * binary chunk * file system We also need a migration strategy and also decide which one would be the default. In any case short term we should test it well before we move to a new system being the default.

[xwiki-devs] [proposal] Add filesystem storage for binary objects which are too large for the database.

by Caleb James DeLisle

In order to decrease the load on the database and heap from large attachments, I would like to propose a filesystem based storage mechanism. I propose the addition of 2 interfaces for storing large binary content, a database table to track the files on the filesystem, a new configuration parameter for the location of persistent filesystem storage, and an implementation of each interface. The reason for writing an abstract binary storage interface rather than a new implementation of AttachmentStore, AttachmentVersioningStore, and AttachmentRecycleBinStore is that the code would be duplicated or should I say triplicated. BinaryStore will provide a means for not only storage of attachments but storage of other large items which we may decide we want in the future. I plan to keep the current implementations of AttachmentStore, AttachmentVersioningStore and AttachmentRecycleBinStore intact so it will be the user's choice how they store attachments. interface com.xpn.xwiki.store.BinaryStore will contain: @param toLoad a binary object with an id number set, will be loaded. void loadObject(BinaryObject toLoad) @param toStore a binary object, if no id is present then it will be given one upon successful store, if id is present then that id number will be used. void storeObject(BinaryObject toStore) This will be implemented by: com.xpn.xwiki.store.hibernate.HibernateBinaryStore com.xpn.xwiki.doc.BinaryObject would contain: void addContent(InputStream content) OutputStream addContent() void clear() InputStream getContent() void getContent(OutputStream writeTo) clear() would clear the underlying file whereas addContent would always append to it. The added column would look like this: <class name="com.xpn.xwiki.store.doc.FilesystemBinaryObject" table="filesystembinaryobject"> <id name="id" column="id"> <generator class="native" /> </id> <property name="fileURI" type="string"> <column name="fileuri" length="255" not-null="true"/> </property> </class> WDYT?
