Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Icon Themes

Hi xwikiers! Here a new proposal about Icon Themes, that I would like to introduce in XWiki 6.2. Issue: ------- In Colibri we use the "Silk" icons set. In Flamingo we want to use monochromatic icons (font-based icon set). But we don't want to break the retro-compatibility. This proposal is only about improvements to the XWiki Syntax in order to insert icons: eg: image:icon:accept The proposal is composed of A+B+C: A - Create an icon set for XWiki ------- As an API, XWiki proposes a selection of icons that developers can use. We ensure to not break the retro-compatibility. Actually, we do not create these icons. We bind them to existing ones (from silk or whatever). Example: - accept - cancel - wiki - user - pdf etc... B - Create an Icon Theme ------- Like the ColorThemes, we can create IconThemes. Concretly, for every icons proposed in A), we create a mapping to an icon from Silk, FontAwesome, or other icon sets. Theme1: accept: <img src="$xwiki.getSkinFile('silk/accept.png')" alt="accept"/> Theme2: accept: <i class="fa fa-check"></i> C - Bind the Wiki Syntax to the current icon theme ------- When a user writes: image:icon:accept it actually executes the mapping contained by the active IconTheme. Here is my +1. WDYT? Thanks, Guillaume _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
