[xwiki-devs] The plan of GSoC project "Auto-completion in content editors" (8.1 - 8.7)

Hi, Last week I have done following things: 1. Implemented the sub-triggers 'attach:', '@', '.' for link autosuggestion. I record a video(see:http://youtu.be/7lXeORkI6Ns) of how to use this triggers under link suggestion context. But still have some problems: a. I didn't implement the trigger for attribute "||", because the suggestion trigger type and behaviour are a bit different from the others, for example, when you type "||" the attributes of the link will be shown, and when user select one, then type '="' the value should be suggested to user, and if user want to add second attributes to the link, he can type "space" key and then the suggestion for available attributes should also be shown. The process are a bit complex, and the cost of implementation is high compare to the utility of the functions. So I decide to abandon this sub-triggers and focus on the trigger "attach:", "@" and "." only which are more useful when user add or edit links. b. Not full tested, I test most cases I can think of, and ask my classmates to use this function and gave me some feedback, I did found some bugs, and fixed them, but I am not very sure some unexcepted bugs will come up c. I didn't implement the default suggestions for "attach:", "." and "@" sub-triggers, I need to discuss with mentor this week. 2. Thanks Marius and Sergiu, with their help, I find all the server side search service for getting the suggestions of the link sub-triggers. 3. Thanks Marius, with his help, I can refine the default Panels.Recent Modified page to get the recent modified pages and attachmens as the default suggestions for link trigger "[[". In this week, I am going to do the following things: 1. Implement the default suggestions for sub-triggers "attach:", "." and "@". 2. Implement the ctrl+space to re-open the suggestion box according to the different contexts of link suggestion. -- Best wishes, 许凌志(Jame Xu) MOE KLINNS Lab and SKLMS Lab, Xi'an Jiaotong University Department of Computer Science and Technology, Xi’an Jiaotong University
