I should ammend, it interacts w/ the packager plugin that's already
part of the base:

I assume you'd be basing partly on that, rather than starting from scratch?
I've made minor changes to the Application since I d/led it... but the
PackageClass is essentially the ApplicationDescriptor, and there
already is an Export page which takes care of exporting the documents.
It's currently based on a text-field list of documents.. with the
Applications I manage, it works just fine, as I know the documents in
the application, and include the Package document w/in the xar I
export.
I was going to add a variant of the Export document that will do a
query based on the space, and generate a xar based on the result of
the query...

Hi Vincent
+1
I think it would be great if applications have an "active" field and
have a "translations" field which would be parsed by XWiki to load
translations. This is the first need I see which would help deployment.
Once it sufficiently documented we should deprecate the Packager that is
published on
xwiki.org
Vincent forgot to say that Application Manager also support
"translation" pages in the descriptor that are, for now, updated in
XWikiPreferences when installing or reload application :)

Hi,
I'm about to commit the Application Manager from Thomas Mortagne. He
has partially implemented this idea:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/
view/Design/ApplicationManager
It's composed of 2 modules:
- a plugin
- a set of documents (XAR)
It allows to create applications inside a wiki by creating a page
which acts as an Application Descriptor and which contains definition
of all documents in an application, the version of the application,
etc. It also allows to export an application as a XAR file (a
standard XAR + this Application Descriptor). All in all it has 2-3
pages for managing applications, listing installed applications, etc.
I'm going to do the following:
1) Commit his work in platform/plugins and platform/applications
2) Document it on
xwiki.org in the Applications section of the Code Zone
Later on, I think we could start using it for splitting XE into
separate applications.
Just to let you know. As usual let me know if you think there's a
problem.
Thanks
-Vincent
