Hello Devs,
is there some Documentation (or a Regex) which Characters are
practically allowed in page and space names? I am unable to find this.
From the syntax page it is kind of clear that the following ones are
not really usable:
"." Because of Space Prefix
"[]" Link itself
"()%" new formatting characters
">" alias of links
I was playing around and if you enter some page name like
"hello.hello.hello" you'll get a page named "hello" in the Space
"hello.hello". If you enter "hello\.hello" it'll just display
nothing.
(on XWiki 1.7 M2)
Maybe XWiki should check if the given page or space name is actually
valid, before creating the page?
Nice greetings
Jonas

Hi Jonas,
This is an area that we need to improve. There's currently no check on
page names but as you guessed we have some limitations so we need to
add some checks.
I need to update the XWiki Syntax page since the link separator is now
> instead of >
So the current rules (As far I can imagine them) are:
* no "[[" or "]]"
* no ">>"
* no ":" (since it's used as the subwiki name)
* no ".". Note that the dot is currently allowed (the first dot
separates the space from the page name) - We need to forbid it in the
future since we want to add support for hierarchical spaces.
Right now the document name parsing is still using the old code so you
shouldl currently get the same behavior as with xwiki 1.0 syntax
Thanks for raising this

There is $util.clearName(..) api to transform a text to a valid page name..
There is $xwiki.getUniquePageName to additionally generate a unique
unused one

I think clearName is a bit oldish would benefit being revisited in the
light of the architecture refactoring we have started (especially when
we'll start the new Model module).
For example it cleans accents that we may want to keep. It also cleans
characters such as comma (",") which could be valid if we wanted.
The rules I put below are the ones that clash with the new XWiki
Syntax 2.0.
I forgot some like all formatting syntaxes (**, //, etc) + the escape
symbol (~) and probably some more.
