Having a plugin modify xwiki core structure.

by Radu Danciu

In building my google docs plugin, I need to modify the structure of the user signup / details page (adding google username and pass). I would like to know if this can be done without my modifying the core structure of xwiki. To clarify: can I make it so that my plugin, when put into use, adds the two fields to the signup / details page? This would solve another small issue that would intervene if modifying the core - when you don't use the docs plugin, you get 2 useless fields in said pages. Any ideas on if and how I could do this? Thanks, Radu

[Proposal] Too many configuration parameter in our default xwiki.cfg file - Let's remove them

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I'd like to suggest removing the maximum number of parameters in our default xwiki.cfg file. Right now it makes XWiki too complex. When someone looks at that file it's daunting. I'd prefer the following strategy: * Minimal xwiki.cfg file (we could leave some parameters that we know have to be changed frequently) * Full reference documentation on all parameters in the Admin guide on xwiki.org * We reference the xwiki.org from inside the xwiki.cfg file telling the user to go there to get the full list of parameters * Always have default values for parameters in our code so that we can leave the parameter empty in xwiki.cfg WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

Do we want Case-sensitivie logins for all databases?

by Vincent Massol

Hi, Just noticed that XWiki logging-in currently depends on the Database: * On most databases it's case sensitive * On MySQL it's case insensitive (as MySQL is by default case- insensitive) Do we want to keep this behavior or do we standardize on one strategy across all databases, like doing case-sensitive logins all the time? Thanks -Vincent

[Proposal] Some/All fields in the database should be longer

by Sergiu Dumitriu

There are many properties stored in VARCHAR(255) fields, which sometimes isn't enough. This already causes http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-883 . Changing to variable length field doesn't have any major side effects, as I know. As pro arguments: 1. The size of the database will not increase 2. There are already some fields stored as mediumtext and longblob, so it's not something new in the database 3. The fewer limits there are, the better 4. Issues like XWIKI-883 will be fixed ... and maybe more Is there something I'm missing that prevents this? -- http://purl.org/net/sergiu

XWiki Watch releases?

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I see in JIRA that the XWiki Watch 1.0M1 version hasn't been released. I think 1.0M1 has been released so the version should be released in JIRA too. I can do it if that's ok. Also I see that 1.1M2 is planned for the 29th of June in JIRA. Has it been released? If not, what is the new date? Thanks -Vincent

[M2] xwiki-enterprise-database build problem

by Artem Melentyev

Hello. I have a strange bug then building xwiki-enterprise-database by maven2 indirectly (by pom <modules>): $ cd xwiki-product-enterprise $ mvn clean; mvn install result: database files in xwiki-product-enterprise/target/database but not in xwiki-product-enterprise/database/target/database so xwiki-enterprise-database-1.1-SNAPSHOT-hsqldb.zip is empty (if I directly building database (`cd xwiki-product-enterprise/database; mvn install;`) - all is fine) environment: maven-2.1-SNAPSHOT(29 june) sun-jdk-1.6 xwiki trank (29 june), unchanged gentoo linux all configs looks normally I looked all configs, looked at mvn -X and found nothing strange. I created simple m2 project like xwiki-product-enterprise but with only the database as m2 module - the same error. Why it can be? -- Artem Melentyev

[M2] store-specific duplicate resources

by Artem Melentyev

Hi. I found some duplicate resources. I don't understand, why it are needed. Please explain why it are needed. 1. hibernate mappings where: xwiki-platform-core/src/main/resources xwiki-platform-web/standard/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes what: xwiki*.hbm.xml feeds*.hbm.xml seems that xwiki-platform-web/standard override xwiki-platform-core. I think core hibernate mappings should be in xwiki-platform-core only. 2. hibernate.cfg.hbm.xml xwiki-product-enterprise/distribution/src/main/resources/hibernate.cfg.hsql.xml = filtered xwiki-platform-web/standard/src/main/resources/hibernate.cfg.xml Because of xwiki-product-enterprise/distribution/src/main/resources/xwiki.cfg (xwiki.store.hibernate.path=/WEB-INF/hibernate.cfg.hsql.xml) xwiki standalone distribution still builds only for hsqldb. (XWIKI-1417) So, if I correct (all duplicates is not needed), I propose: 1. remove xwiki-platform-web/standard/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes/*.hbm.xml 2. remove hibernate.cfg.hsql.xml and xwiki.cfg (or remove hsql from xwiki.cfg) from xwiki-product-enterprise/distribution/src/main/resources/ 3. remove or modify 2nd <fileSet> in xwiki-product-enterprise/distribution/src/assemble/application.xml (For now it is also coping jetty distribution in webapp/xwiki/WEB-INF/jetty, so xwiki distribution contains 2 jetty's) Tell me where I am wrong. I performed this proposal on my svn trank workcopy, and everything is fine. Functional tests pass on all databases. -- Artem Melentyev, UralSU

Build Tip: Building only XE

by Vincent Massol

From http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building: "If you wish to build all the modules required for XWiki Enterprise and not the ones required by other products you can go at the top level and type mvn install -Pxe" -Vincent

The least you could do is read my answers and try them out and let me know how it goes... :( Thanks -Vincent
