[xwiki-devs] very fragmented javscript code

by Sachin Mittal

Hi, I have noticed that we have javascript files lying at several places in the xwiki web application. Further we seem to be using lot of javascript code developed by many independent OEM vendors. All this makes very hard to understand what all components are present in each js file. I would like to know why we use such fragmented set of js code, where as almost all the functionality could have been achieved by using single ajax toolkit and any additional work could have been done by using plugins on top of these tool kits. Every good ajax toolkits provides ways to extend and there is a good library of useful plugins found for each. In the xwiki application I have found at least 4 ajax toolkits: general toolkits found ---------------------- scriptaculous rico prototype yui Further there are lot of other js code also lying around. Again I am not sure if most of this is extension of one of the above toolkit or again these are independent set of javascript code (ajax/dhtml widgets). other js files found: --------------------- wysiwyg editor --------------- tiny_mce wiki_editor color picker --------------- chwScripts panels wizard ---------------- panelWizard miscelaneous --------------- ajaxSuggest lightbox tablefilterNsort usersandgroups tdwScripts wzToolTip Almost of the functionality present in these javascript file could have been built using just one ajax toolkit. Is there any attempt to clean this stuff. To start with I suggest to keep all the possible js code a one place, probably in scrips directory. Next we can replace code by using agreed toolkit. This way lot of extra js code would be removed and we would have much compact UI. Also can someone mention 1 liners as what is the purpose of each js file we use in xwiki. I am planning to redesign the complete UI using ext-js and jquery and it would help me a lot in knowing how can each be replaced with new component. Like after a lot of hit and trial I found that if I include ext-js and rico together, ext-js does not get loaded. So now I can replace whats being done by rico toolkit with ext-js/jquery equivalent. Let me know what are your opinions on this.

[xwiki-devs] set doctype for xwiki pages

by ancapaula.luca＠xwiki.com

Hi devs, the current templates for xwiki pages include a xhtml standard <DOCTYPE> for any html page generated which triggers the standard mode CSS interpretation in browsers (see http://www.quirksmode.org/css/quirksmode.html for details). This causes issues in applications that use GWT generated code (like XWatch) since GWT does not work properly in standards mode yet (see http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=1305 for details). I propose to parametrize the document type definition (its existance and type), thus allowing the developer to take control of the type of document it generates, for each generated page. The solutions would be: - using a request parameter to specify the doctype - using a $response function, just like $response.setContentType() to set the doctype at render time (this solution might require post processing to change the default generated doctype in the page). WDYT?

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Upgrade our official Maven distribution for building XWiki

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I've been using Maven 2.1 snapshot built from maven trunk for more than a week now and didn't get any issue. I'd like to propose that we remove our old maven zip and replace it with a recent trunk version. This will allow: * fixing lots of maven bugs we have since we're using an old maven version * putting us on the maven 2.1 release track. This will allow us to detect any issue and report it to the maven team so that the final 2.1 release will work for us Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Make Toucan the default skin in 1.3M2

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I'm proposing to make toucan the default skin in 1.3M2. Several reasons: 1) It's nicer and cleaner than Albatross 2) If we want to get feedback on it we need it to make it the default. It's important to do this now so that we can deliver a perfect Toucan for 1.3 final 3) One of the highlight of the 1.3 release is the new skin Here's a big +1 from me. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Archiva on maven.xwiki.org

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, I've just installed Archiva on http://laam.xpertnet.biz:8080/archiva/index.action under my account there. Raffaello will probably move it somewhere else in the near future. http://laam.xpertnet.biz:8080/archiva Right now I've configured it to: * Remove snapshots that are older than 30 days * Keep the last 2 snapshots artifacts * Delete snapshots when a released version exist Now let's monitor how it goes... Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] What's left for 1.3M2?

by Vincent Massol

Hi, As planned I'd like to release 1.3M2. It was planned for today but since we're still busy I propose to do the release over the week end and on monday morning. Is there anything we're still working on that prevents 1.3M2 from being released? And if so when can you have these finished? Thanks -Vincent
