Hi all,
I am Buddhiprabha Erabadda, a final year undergraduate from the Department
of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Moratuwa. I have been
studying about XWiki from few days now and I have
downloaded the xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-4.5.3.zip [1] and run it on my
Windows machine to understand the client side of XWiki. Now I am getting
familiar with the code base, referring to various documentation. [2]
After going through XWiki site and particularly News and Blog [3], I
decided to come up with a new idea for GSoC 2013 for XWiki. My idea is to
develop a mobile news application for XWiki. This will enable users to view
news about posts, new releases, fixes, etc through the application. In
particular, my proposed application will contain the following.
- News will be shown as a thumbnail list: it will contain an image of
the author of the news item or an image related to the news item, a title
for the news item, and a brief description about the news item.
- When a user clicks on the news item, user will be directed to a page
with full information regarding that particular news.
This application can have following features.
- The user can filter news: for example Latest news, news by a specific
author, news from a particular period, etc.
- Add favourite news: this will enable the user to mark his/her favorite
items and there by access them at a later point of time.
- Enable adding comments from the application
This is the basic outline of my proposed mobile application. I expect to
implement this as a PhoneGap application. Using PhoneGap to develop the
application will enable it to be run on multiple platforms, including
Android, iOS, etc. The application will be beneficial for everyone
including users and developers of XWiki because it will enable them to be
updated on the go using a mobile application.
I would like to know your opinion on the idea of having the proposed mobile
news application. Please add to list of features if you have better or new
ideas for them.
I participated for GSoC 2012 under DocBook organization for the project
“DocBook to Word XML roundtripping XSLs” and successfully completed my
project. [4] [5] I would like to contribute to XWiki in GSoC 2013 and I
hope to know your idea about my proposed mobile application. Thank you in
advance.

I'm glad that XWiki has caught your attention but I don't think your
proposal fits into our target for GSoC because:
(1) It's not related to the XWiki product. If your application can get
the news from xwiki.org then it can get them from other sites as well.
Even if you take the data (using REST) from the blog structure
(objects) that is specific to XWiki, that is just a small part, the
rest of the application (display and interaction) would still be
generic. I'd rather see the XWiki news / blog posts integrated in an
existing news application.
(2) The blog application already supports 'exporting' the blog posts /
news in RSS format, which can be used in any RSS aggregator, and there
are mobile news aggregator applications that can read RSS.
I hope this won't discourage you. If none of the listed
http://gsoc.xwiki.org project ideas attract you then you can make your
own proposal but it must be related to the XWiki product.
Thanks,
Marius

Hi,
There is some work done in the mobile direction that you can check out
"Mobile XWiki Client and Mobile Skin repositories on xwiki-contrib"
http://markmail.org/thread/ytujvmshwdeun7kv
"New version of the Mobile App
Code<http://markmail.org/message/htfs3bqtj2tdpfnf>"

If you really like the mobile area you can check out what is currently done
and adapt your proposal according to it. Then the proposal will be review
and see if we can find a matching mentor for it.
Thanks,

Hi all,
Marius,
Thank you for pointing out that the mobile news application is not within
the scope of XWiki for GSoC. I will come up with an idea within the scope
as you have instructed.
Caty,
Thank you for directing me to the mobile application that is being
developed for XWiki. I went through the links you provided and read about
the design proposal and its proposed features in 3 tiers explained by
Ludovic. [1]
I forked the code from github[2] and used only the www directory and
created the application using Cordova. I installed it on my Android phone
to see its existing features. I could run the application on my device
successfully and I tried to connect to a cloud. I could not figure out how
it can be connected to a particular XWiki instance. Can someone please tell
me how the application can be connected to a particular instance. Is there
a test cloud that can be used to test the application?
I would like to contribute to this application by implementing some of the
features that are listed in the design proposal for the mobile client. What
features will be integrated in the next release of the application? I would
like to know if it possible for me to take this as a GSoC project for GSoC
2013.
From the Ideas page, the idea “Improve the messaging
feature” captured my
attention and I would like to look more in to that and to know
more about
the idea if mobile application feature development is not possible to be
taken up as a GSoC project.
I appreciate your advice on the project. Thank you in advance.

Hi Buddhiprabha,
You are very welcome to make a good proposal in the mobile area that would
build on the current mobile client.
You need to show us that you know what it means to do Mobile Web
Development, that you understand the current architecture of the code and
can work on the technologies needed (Cordova, Notifications, etc..).
The next set of features will probably require slightly more native
development.
You can try to convince us that you are a good candidate by analyzing the
current prototype and tell us what you think should be improved and what
are the most important features from your point of view.
(I have some ideas so we can test you on that)
There is an alpha release for Android as a package here:
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/MobileClientAlphaRelease
Since you already build it, you want to test it you can either:
1/ In the simulator configure localhost. For that the settings would be:
server: http://localhost:9080
baseurl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/
viewurl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/
2/ In a real phone point it to a instance available on the net (simular
URLs as those) for example dev.xwiki.org
server: http://dev.xwiki.org
baseurl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/
viewurl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/rest/wikis/dev/ (slightly different
here because dev.xwiki.org is a subwiki of a XEM instance)
3/ in a real phone point it to an XWiki SAS Cloud instance (register on
https://network.xwiki.com where you can get
it's https. Here example with the wiki called "ludovic"
server: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com
baseurl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/
viewurl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/rest/wikis/wikiXXX/
In the last url wikiXXX needs to be replace by a value specific to your
wiki. You can get this value by pasting this in a wiki page our your XWiki
Cloud instance:
{{velocity}}
$context.database
{{/velocity}}
At this point XWiki mobile cannot get the value of wikiXXX for XWiki Cloud.
This might be fixed in a future version of XWiki.
BTW I'm not sure you took the right code. The v2 is in a branch:
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/mobile-standardxwikiclient/tree/v2
You might have taken the older JQuery Mobile version which is slower and
does not have a configuration function.

Hi Ludovic,
Thank you for your instructions regarding configurations. I had previously
taken the older JQuery Mobile version which does not have a configuration
function.
I downloaded the alpha release of the mobile client from the link you
sent.[1] I installed it on my Android device and run it. But for some
reason it only gives me a list view with two items "wikis" and "tools"
and
it is not possible to process further. What can be the reason for this?
Since the apk did not work I tried to build it from the source.[2] Since it
had a build.xml inside the Android folder I built with ant and it was
successfully built. But I was not able to run the project. Can you please
advice me regarding building the project from source so that I can test the
current version of the mobile client? Thank you in advance.

Hi Buddhiprabha,
You are very welcome to make a good proposal in the mobile area that would
build on the current mobile client.
You need to show us that you know what it means to do Mobile Web
Development, that you understand the current architecture of the code and
can work on the technologies needed (Cordova, Notifications, etc..).
The next set of features will probably require slightly more native
development.
You can try to convince us that you are a good candidate by analyzing the
current prototype and tell us what you think should be improved and what
are the most important features from your point of view.
(I have some ideas so we can test you on that)
There is an alpha release for Android as a package here:
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/MobileClientAlphaRelease
Since you already build it, you want to test it you can either:
1/ In the simulator configure localhost. For that the settings would be:
server: http://localhost:9080
baseurl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/
viewurl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/
2/ In a real phone point it to a instance available on the net (simular
URLs as those) for example dev.xwiki.org
server: http://dev.xwiki.org
baseurl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/
viewurl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/rest/wikis/dev/ (slightly different
here because dev.xwiki.org is a subwiki of a XEM instance)
3/ in a real phone point it to an XWiki SAS Cloud instance (register on
https://network.xwiki.com where you can get
it's https. Here example with the wiki called "ludovic"
server: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com
baseurl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/
viewurl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/rest/wikis/wikiXXX/
In the last url wikiXXX needs to be replace by a value specific to your
wiki. You can get this value by pasting this in a wiki page our your XWiki
Cloud instance:
{{velocity}}
$context.database
{{/velocity}}
At this point XWiki mobile cannot get the value of wikiXXX for XWiki Cloud.
This might be fixed in a future version of XWiki.
BTW I'm not sure you took the right code. The v2 is in a branch:
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/mobile-standardxwikiclient/tree/v2
You might have taken the older JQuery Mobile version which is slower and
does not have a configuration function.

Hi all,
Marius,
Thank you for pointing out that the mobile news application is not within
the scope of XWiki for GSoC. I will come up with an idea within the scope
as you have instructed.
Caty,
Thank you for directing me to the mobile application that is being
developed for XWiki. I went through the links you provided and read about
the design proposal and its proposed features in 3 tiers explained by
Ludovic. [1]
I forked the code from github[2] and used only the www directory and
created the application using Cordova. I installed it on my Android phone
to see its existing features. I could run the application on my device
successfully and I tried to connect to a cloud. I could not figure out
how
it can be connected to a particular XWiki
instance. Can someone please
tell
me how the application can be connected to a
particular instance. Is
there
a test cloud that can be used to test the
application?
I would like to contribute to this application by implementing some of
the
features that are listed in the design proposal
for the mobile client.
What
features will be integrated in the next release
of the application? I
would
like to know if it possible for me to take this
as a GSoC project for
GSoC
2013.
From the Ideas page, the idea “Improve the messaging feature” captured my
attention and I would like to look more in to that and to know more about
the idea if mobile application feature development is not possible to be
taken up as a GSoC project.
I appreciate your advice on the project. Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I'm not sure why the apk does not work. I ran it fine on the simulator. It
could be a compatibility issue with your device (which is it ?)
If the screens stays on wikis and tools it means initialization has failed,
but it could be many things (failed to load translations, failed to load
cordova, etc..)
The easiest way to run the application is to run it on a local browser. IE
and Safari I think can run it fine.
Firefox and Chrome will block on ajax requests because of security issues.
To fix this you can use:
1/ put the code behind a web server
2/ Use the Firefox CORS extension to force CORS headers which will allow
cross domain requests
I usually develop on Safari (on Mac) as it can run the code as is.

I push some new code on the v2:
- an android source tree (which depends on Cordoba 2.7rc1 as other cordovas
don't work with Android 4.2)
- some changes in the javascript code
Note to make android work you need to :
- add a link to src/main/www in assets/www (cd android/assets, ln -s
../../src/main/www www)
- change cordova-2.6.0 to cordova-2.7.0 in index.html

failed, but it could be many things (failed to load translations, failed to
load cordova, etc..)
The easiest way to run the application is to run it on a local browser. IE
and Safari I think can run it fine.
Firefox and Chrome will block on ajax requests because of security issues.
To fix this you can use:
1/ put the code behind a web server
2/ Use the Firefox CORS extension to force CORS headers which will allow
cross domain requests
I usually develop on Safari (on Mac) as it can run the code as is.

Hi Ludovic,
Thank you for your instructions regarding configurations. I had previously
taken the older JQuery Mobile version which does not have a configuration
function.
I downloaded the alpha release of the mobile client from the link you
sent.[1] I installed it on my Android device and run it. But for some
reason it only gives me a list view with two items "wikis" and
"tools" and
it is not possible to process further. What can be the reason for this?
Since the apk did not work I tried to build it from the source.[2] Since
it
had a build.xml inside the Android folder I built with ant and it was
successfully built. But I was not able to run the project. Can you please
advice me regarding building the project from source so that I can test
the
current version of the mobile client? Thank you in advance.

Hi Buddhiprabha,
You are very welcome to make a good proposal in the mobile area that
would
build on the current mobile client.
You need to show us that you know what it means to do Mobile Web
Development, that you understand the current architecture of the code
and
can work on the technologies needed (Cordova,
Notifications, etc..).
The next set of features will probably require slightly more native
development.
You can try to convince us that you are a good candidate by analyzing
the
current prototype and tell us what you think
should be improved and what
are the most important features from your point of view.
(I have some ideas so we can test you on that)
There is an alpha release for Android as a package here:
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/MobileClientAlphaRelease
Since you already build it, you want to test it you can either:
1/ In the simulator configure localhost. For that the settings would be:
server: http://localhost:9080
baseurl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/
viewurl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: http://localhost:9080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/
2/ In a real phone point it to a instance available on the net (simular
URLs as those) for example dev.xwiki.org
server: http://dev.xwiki.org
baseurl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/
viewurl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/rest/wikis/dev/ (slightly
different
here because dev.xwiki.org is a subwiki of a XEM
instance)
3/ in a real phone point it to an XWiki SAS Cloud instance (register on
https://network.xwiki.com where you can get
it's https. Here example with the wiki called "ludovic"
server: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com
baseurl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/
viewurl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/
resturl: https://ludovic.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/rest/wikis/wikiXXX/
In the last url wikiXXX needs to be replace by a value specific to your
wiki. You can get this value by pasting this in a wiki page our your
XWiki
Cloud instance:
{{velocity}}
$context.database
{{/velocity}}
At this point XWiki mobile cannot get the value of wikiXXX for XWiki
Cloud.
This might be fixed in a future version of
XWiki.
BTW I'm not sure you took the right code. The v2 is in a branch:
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/mobile-standardxwikiclient/tree/v2
You might have taken the older JQuery Mobile version which is slower and
does not have a configuration function.

Hi Ludovic,
I got the new code and I could build that successfully. The problem with
installation had been a compatibility issue with my android device. The
application's build target is 4.2.2 and my device has an older version.
I built the project from source and installed it on an emulator. Now I am
trying to connect to a local server according to your previous message.
(using the emulator is slower than using the actual device as usual :) )
I could see that "Settings" page of a wiki has options to add the required
information. (I guess the user interface of that page can be improved to
look nicer) I will go through the prototype and let you know what changes
are required in my point of view and what I think are most important as you
instructed in a previous mail.
Thank you.

Note to make android work you need to :
- add a link to src/main/www in assets/www (cd android/assets, ln -s
../../src/main/www www)
- change cordova-2.6.0 to cordova-2.7.0 in index.html

Hi,
I'm not sure why the apk does not work. I ran it fine on the simulator.
It
could be a compatibility issue with your device
(which is it ?)
If the screens stays on wikis and tools it means initialization has
failed, but it could be many things (failed to load translations, failed
to
load cordova, etc..)
The easiest way to run the application is to run it on a local browser.
IE
and Safari I think can run it fine.
Firefox and Chrome will block on ajax requests because of security
issues.
To fix this you can use:
1/ put the code behind a web server
2/ Use the Firefox CORS extension to force CORS headers which will allow
cross domain requests
I usually develop on Safari (on Mac) as it can run the code as is.

Hi Ludovic,
I got the new code and I could build that successfully. The problem with

I built the project from source and installed it on an emulator. Now I am
trying to connect to a local server according to your previous message.
(using the emulator is slower than using the actual device as usual :) )
I could see that "Settings" page of a wiki has options to add the required
information. (I guess the user interface of that page can be improved to
look nicer) I will go through the prototype and let you know what changes

Yes that's the most important.
Take some time also to detail your experience with relevant technologies

The easiest way to run the application is to run it on a local browser.
IE
and Safari I think can run it fine.
Firefox and Chrome will block on ajax requests because of security
issues.

I usually develop on Safari (on Mac) as it can run the code as is.

Hi,
I just pushed an updated configuration screen which has an "automatic" mode
to detect the configuration of the URLs.
This should simplify setup.
As I told you, running the UI in a (supported) browser is much more
efficient than in the emulator and the features are currently exactly the
same (there is almost no native code at this point)

Sounds good,
Now you should look at finding an issue in the client, fix it and propose a
pull request, as it's part of the candidacy process.
