Re: [xwiki-devs] Looking for help with groovy

This code will take the text from a field on the form and set the form title to the text. It will also rename the document to the specified text. Finally it will redirect the XWiki to the newly named document. This all happens when the user saves the document. I have commented a large part of the code for myself and anyone else trying to understand. {{groovy}} import org.xwiki.observation.* import org.xwiki.observation.event.* import org.xwiki.bridge.event.* import org.xwiki.context.* import com.xpn.xwiki.web.* import com.xpn.xwiki.* import org.apache.velocity.VelocityContext; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequestWrapper; // The main purpose of this class is to allow us to change/add the 'xredirect' parameter on the request. Because we are renaming the document // in the ProcessDocumentRenamer, if we don't redirect the browser to the new document name, they will get a message saying the document they // just saved doesn't exist or has been deleted. // This class wraps the HttpServletRequest class from the context. The reason we do this is so we can access the contents of the request. // There is a property('xredirect') that we want to change to point at our renamed document. // This also implements XWikiRequest interface. The reason we do this is because this interface is how we access the 'xredirect' parameter. public class RequestWrapper extends HttpServletRequestWrapper implements XWikiRequest { // Used to hold the parameters. private HashMap params = new HashMap(); // The class constructor. It takes the HttpServletRequest, object that it is going to wrap, as an input parameter. public RequestWrapper(HttpServletRequest request) { // I do not know what super does? Do anybody else know? super(request); } // Gets parameters from the class. public String getParameter(String name) { // if we added one, return that one if ( params.get( name ) != null ) { return params.get( name ); } // otherwise return what's in the original request. HttpServletRequest req = (HttpServletRequest) super.getRequest(); return req.getParameter( name ); } // Method to add parameters to a class. We will use this when we add 'xredirect'. public void addParameter( String name, String value ) { params.put( name, value ); } // This is needed to meet the XWikiRequest interface requirements.
