[xwiki-devs] Migration from v0.9 to v1.2
by "Víctor A. Rodríguez" 20 Nov '07

20 Nov '07

Hi all, I'm fairly new to this list. Please forgive me for any inconvenience. With the new XWiki version on the road I just resume my migration assignment from v0.9 t v1.2. Let us make a little review: when trying to import the xar file to v1.2 (take a look at http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation#HUpgradinganXWi…) it fails with a java.lang.NullPointerException As I can see it brokes at com.xpn.xwiki.web.ImportAction.render(ImportAction.java:42), but couldn't see why (yet?) I plan to fill a bug report and try to fix it (humbly I'm not sure of a success history here, but I'll try ...), so my questions are : * I need to add a new bug report or just add more info to the one already opened (http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1809) In my case is a null pointer exception when tries to open the file, but in the reported one its caused when tries to parse the xmlfile * Anyone is having the same problem and have fixed it or created a workaround ??

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Change content of feed article documents fetched by feed plugin
by ancapaula.luca＠xwiki.com 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hi all, I would like to change the feed plugin so that the content of the fetched documents can be easily changed. Currently, the content of the document containing a fetched article is hardcoded to "#includeSheet('XWiki.FeedEntryClassSheet')". I think that any code using the feed plugin should be able to set its own sheet or whatever content is needed. There are a couple of options to be analyzed: 1. regarding the content of the feed article document: a) any feed article includes a sheet b) any feed article contains some content, not necessarily a sheet inclusion. 2. regarding the way the content is set: a) through a String variable in the feed API, that can be set by the user through a call like xwiki.feed.setDefaultFeedDocContent("some content"), which defaults to the current value, for compatibility with the code already using the feed plugin. b) through an optional parameter to the updateFeed function(s) such that, each time the feeds are fetched the content can be specified 3. regarding the 'scope' of this default content for the feed entry document: a) it is specific to a feed aggregator and is set in the aggregator class b) it is specific to an update operation (as mentioned on 2.b) c) it is specific to the feed plugin and all documents through that plugin instance will have the same content (as specified on 2.a) WDYT?

Just to let you know that I'm -1 right now to release the XEM project with the newly added web-database/ module. It breaks what we had agreed on for WARs for XE. I might change my mind if someone can convince me of course :) Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Statistics][Proposal] Improve the statistics page
by Marius Dumitru Florea 15 Nov '07

15 Nov '07

Hi all, The statistics page needs improvement. See http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XE-37 for a brief introduction. I propose we take the following steps: 1) Extend the xwiki core api with: package com.xpn.xwiki.api; /** * Statistics api */ public class StatsService extends Api{ /** * Retrieve all-time statistics for top pages * * @param action Can be "view", "save", etc. * @param space The space from which to consider pages. If space is the empty string or null then the whole wiki is considered. * @param count The number of page stats to retrieve. * * @return a list of document stats */ List<DocumentStats> getTopPages(String action, String space, int count){} List<DocumentStats> getMonthTopPages(String action, String space, Date month, int count){} List<DocumentStats> getDayTopPages(String action, String space, Date day, int count){} /** * Retrieve all-time statistics for top contributors * * @param space The space in which to look for contributions. If space is the empty string or null then the whole wiki is considered. NOTE: currently the database stores statistics regarding only the whole wiki (e.g. the number of saves a user has made in the entire wiki, but not at space level). To implement space-level contributor statistics I need to consider page history, which is time-consuming (e.g. for each page in space, for each history entry ...). I go for offering (at least for the moment) user stats only at wiki level by removing this parameter. * @param count The number of user stats to retrieve * * @return The list of user stats */ List<VisitStats> getTopContributors(String space, int count){} List<VisitStats> getMonthTopContributors(String space, Date month, int count){} List<VisitStats> getDayTopContributors(String space, Date day, int count){} /** * Retrieve the evolution of the specified activity over a period of time * * @param action Can be "view", "save", etc. * @param docOrSpace The (full)name of a document or space or the empty string / null for the whole wiki * @param startDay The start date * @param endDay The end date * @param dayInterval The sample rate (e.g. at every 2 days) * * @return A map of (date, action count) pairs. */ Map<Date, Integer> getActivityPerDay(String action, String docOrSpace, Date startDay, Date endDay, int dayInterval){} Map<Date, Integer> getActivityPerMonth(String action, String docOrSpace, Date startMonth, Date endMonth, int monthInterval){} Map<Date, Integer> getActivityPerYear(String action, String docOrSpace, Date startYear, Date endYear, int yearInterval){} } 2) Add in the com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki the following method: public StatsService getStatsService(){} 3) Extend the com.xpn.xwiki.stats.api.XWikiStatsService with: List<DocumentStats> getTopPages(String action, String space, int count, XWikiContext context){} List<DocumentStats> getMonthTopPages(String action, String space, Date month, int count, XWikiContext context){} List<DocumentStats> getDayTopPages(String action, String space, Date day, int count, XWikiContext context){} List<VisitStats> getTopContributors(String space, int count, XWikiContext context){} List<VisitStats> getMonthTopContributors(String space, Date month, int count, XWikiContext context){} List<VisitStats> getDayTopContributors(String space, Date day, int count, XWikiContext context){} Map<Date, Integer> getActivityPerDay(String action, String docOrSpace, Date startDay, Date endDay, int dayInterval, XWikiContext context){} Map<Date, Integer> getActivityPerMonth(String action, String docOrSpace, Date startMonth, Date endMonth, int monthInterval, XWikiContext context){} Map<Date, Integer> getActivityPerYear(String action, String docOrSpace, Date startYear, Date endYear, int yearInterval, XWikiContext context){} 4) Adjust the com.xpn.xwiki.stats.impl.XWikiStatsServiceImpl 5) In com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki there are 2 methods related to statistics: * getCurrentMonthXWikiStats * getRefererText We could duplicate this methods in the StatsService and deprecate them in XWiki. 6) Currently the xwiki chart macro doesn't support hidden (aka not visible in page) data sources. This is how the char macro is used now: {chart:type=time|source=type:table;table_number:4;...} I propose to extend the macro to allow the following usage: {chart:type=time|source=type:table;...} {table} | Series1 | Series2 2001-2 | 181.8 | 129.6 2001-3 | 167.3 | 123.2 2001-4 | 153.8 | 117.2 {table} {chart} This extension consists in: * add chart macro's content to the parameters map given to the data source * adjust the TableDataSource to use this content when no table_number is specified 7) Create the xwiki-platform-applications/statistics application to host the statistics related pages. Different stats will be displayed using special panels that can be inserted into a page (see http://llunati.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Albatross/PanelInPage for a sample). I propose to use the Panels space for this pages (e.g use the path src/main/resources/Panels). Vincent could help me with this. 8) Create the Stats page (aka the UI). The Stats page is now in the XWiki space, meaning it is not accessible for the regular user (event when the statistics module is enabled). I don't really like this. I like more how jira.xwiki.org shows me its stats even when I'm not logged in. In the future, I think it would be great if the users could see page/space/wiki stats much the same they see now the xwiki code of the page (e.g. Show > Stats). For the moment I propose to make only a single stats page (XWiki.Stats). That's all. WDYT? -Marius

[xwiki-devs] Removing a property in the Class Editor ?
by jvivien.m2 jvivien.m2 15 Nov '07

15 Nov '07

Regarding JIRA issue XE-143 : http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XE-143 Which skin file would you need to edit in order to add buttons for removing an object property in the class editor ? The following Velocity command works : $xwiki.getClass("doctreeChildClass").getXWikiClass().removeField("fullNameOld"); But I dont know how to get the class defined in a document. I know how to get the class of an object attached to a document, but not the class defined in a document. If I get an answer, I can add this information to the Velocity API guide in xwiki.org Maybe it s also possible to add "remove" buttons for each existing property in the class editor. Let me know your thoughts, Thanks ! -- Jean-Vivien MAURICE Elève Ingénieur Informatique et Gestion, Polytech'Montpellier (ISIM) E-mail : jean.vivien.maurice(a)gmail.com Tél. : 0046 7 62 33 20 46 Skype : jean.vivien
