Hi list,
sorry for replying somewhat late, I'm quite busy atm.
The main point I wanted to make with my proposal was that each plugin
should get it's own release cycle and therefore it's own
trunk/tags/branches directories.
Being a fan of flat hierarchies I suggested the hierarchy with the
plugins at top level, but as long as each plugin gets it's own
trunk/tags/branches subdirs the approach below is absolutely fine with
me, too.
After all, one always can check out subtrees like
xwiki-plugins/calendar/trunk to a dir named xwiki-plugin-calendar,
creating a flat directory layout in the local filesystem.
Greetings,
Jens

It's true that in the beginning the multiple levels might look a little
weird, but I agree that long term it would better look if it was
something like that:
xwiki/
xwiki-plugins/
- emailnotification
- lucene
- calendar
- lotusnotes
- msexchange
- sap
- etc...
xwiki-apps/
- ...
- ...
xwiki-clients/
- eclipseclient
- xulclient
- ...
This is of course ambitious.. but there are early signs that plugins
will be something that will be growing quickly.
So I give my +1 to a multiple level organisation which allows each
module to have their own lifecycle..

Hi everyone,
(switching list)
I really don't understand what is the problem with the:
xwiki/
xwiki-plugins/
directory structure.
Do you put all your files in a single directory on your machine? I believe
not. I'm sure you're using folders.
xwiki/
plugin1/
plugin2/
...
pluginN/
will work well *only* if we have very few plugins (and I don't think that's
the plan! :-)).
In addition it's not balanced with the xwiki/ directory. We could also have
xwiki-core/, xwiki-plugin-manager/, xwiki-persistence/, etc at the top
level
but we don't. Why? Because it's better organized to have them under xwiki/
as they all are about the xwiki engine proper. The same applies for the
plugins. They are all plugins.
Also there are other things than plugins. Imagine some other extensions or
other applications built on top of xwiki. Say an issue tracker for example.
It would then go in:
xwiki/
xwiki-plugins/
xwiki-tracker/
[...]
It would really be a mess to mix all the plugins at the top level with
other
things.
I don't understand what's your issue with multiple level directories. I
guess you haven't seen a Maven directory structure yet too! ;-) Once and if
we migrate to Maven, I can tell you that the structure inside xwiki/ is
going to contain *lots* of directories! :-)
I hope I have convinced you a little more...
Thanks
-Vincent

Hi All,
+1 for this structure which seems real clean and extensible. Don't
like the two level hierarchy for the plugins Vincent proposed in his
later post too much.
Looking forward to participating in this community !
Luis.

IMHO it's more flexible and at the root level I would also add other
tools that are not XWiki plugins like xwiki-scripts,
xwiki-eclipse-client etc.. in future.

cool, cannot wait for it! The simple email notification workaround
(http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/RecentChangesNewsletter) we
use at my company is quickly reaching its limits ;-)
