[xwiki-devs] [UX][Consistency][Vote] "Page" vs. "Document" consistent naming
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 09 Sep '15

09 Sep '15

Hi, We are using mixed naming when referring to a document/page, not only on different pages, but also in the same context (Rename step for example). There is also an issue referring to this problem XWIKI-5401<http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5401>and we need to find an answer in order to move forward consistency. So the question is which version we prefer: "Page" or "Document" ? I'm voting +1 for "Page". "Page" is more used IMO, especially in the "Space"/"Page" context. "Page" is more general than "Document" and better fitted for a platform that encapsulates all kind of content (not just documents). Please cast your vote. Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] Questions about fixing getRenderedContent() bug
by Vincent Massol 18 Feb '15

18 Feb '15

Hi, Im trying to fix http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4274 Basically if you do $xwiki.getDocument("someDoc").getRenderedContent() it'll get executed in the context of the current doc which I believe is wrong especially since other signatures of getRenderedContent() execute in the target document's context. I have fixed this locally but found that admin.vm for example is assuming that getRenderedContent() will get executed in the context of the calling doc (i.e. XWiki.Import when doing an import for example). FYI the chain flow is admin.vm -- getRenderedContent() --> XWiki.AdminSheet --> XWiki.AdminImportSheet --> importinline.vm, which requires the current doc to be XWiki.Import (to get/put attachments from/to it). I can fix this easily using a new getRenderedContent signature I've introduced. However I'm wondering if we have other places that incorrectly use getRenderedContent() and assume it won't be rendered in the context of the target document. Is this change too dangerous to make? If not know, we'll need to it quickly (2.1M1?) since it's an important bug IMO. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Pretty Time library
by Vincent Massol 11 Jul '12

Could be useful: http://ocpsoft.com/prettytime/ Idea of usage: For ex we could use that to show the last modified document dates for dates in the past week (for ex): "Document created 2 days ago" It's in the maven central repo and it's under LGPL -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] How to load GWT application on Xwiki pages?
by Leon Wang 24 Nov '11

24 Nov '11

Hi Everyone! I have read this document "Writing GWT applications in XWiki" ( http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/WritingGWTApplicationsInXWiki) And I know how to develop GWT module for xwiki now. I also have read the document "WYSIWYG Editor Module" ( http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Modules/WysiwygEditorModule) I followed the instruction which tried to integrate the WYSIWYG editor(GWT application) in wiki pages, and I put the following code in my wiki editor: "{{html}} <script type="text/javascript" src="XWikiWysiwyg.js"> alert('WYSIWYG code is loaded!'); </script> <textarea id="demo"></textarea> <script type="text/javascript"> Wysiwyg.onModuleLoad(function() { new WysiwygEditor({hookId:'demo'}); alert('WYSIWYG code is loaded!'); }); Wysiwyg.onModuleLoad(function() { editor = new WysiwygEditor({hookId: 'demo'}); }); }); </script> {{/html}}" After saved, it only display a blank text area without any sign of WYSIWYG editor, also there is no alart 'WYSIWYG code is loaded!' popup. Can you help me figure it out what is wrong with it? I am planing to develop a tree view using GWT to display Design Rationale Element. Could you give me some ideas of after my development, how can I embeded the GWT application into Xwiki pages and interact with the GWT application? Thank you very much! Leon

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Mailing list for infrastructure?
by Vincent Massol 20 May '11

20 May '11

Hi, In order to get more community help and to open up our xwiki.org infrastructure to the community we could introduce an infra(a)xwiki.org mailing list which would be the place to: - talk about infrastructure. By infra I mean machines and their configuration + xwiki.org + myxwiki.org - receive emails from xwiki.org and myxwiki.org when XE/XEM restarts (there's a script to restart them automatically when an instance doesn't respond within 30 seconds for ex). These emails contains thread dump + other information useful to debug and understand why the instance wasn't responding. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Introduce user management configuration in virtual mode
by Jean-Vincent Drean 09 May '11

09 May '11

Hi Devs, I'd like to introduce a new configuration property that would define at which level users should be handled in a farm. See the proposition about the new entry in xwiki.properties, it should be self-explanatory: --------------------------------8<-------------------------------- #-# [Since 2.5M1] #-# Define at which level users and groups should be handled in the farm. Available modes: #-# #-# mixed (default): #-# - user registration available in the main wiki and local wikis #-# - users from the current wiki and the main wiki will be displayed in the rights interface and user suggests #-# - user administration is present in all the wikis #-# #-# local: #-# - user registration available in the main wiki and local wikis #-# - only users from the current wiki will be displayed in the rights interface and user suggests #-# - user administration is present in all the wikis #-# #-# global: #-# - user registration available in the main wiki only, the register link in local wikis will point to the main wiki #-# - only users from the main wiki will be displayed in the rights interface and user suggests #-# - user administration is present in the main wiki only core.virtual.users=mixed -------------------------------->8-------------------------------- More details are available here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/UsersModule WDYT ? Thanks, JV.

[xwiki-devs] [Discussion] What title behavior do we want in the future?
by Vincent Massol 02 May '11

02 May '11

Hi devs, This is a thread to discuss what kind of title behavior we want in the future. I've listed some topics I consider open below. Could you give me your opinion about them? 1) Should we force titles to be mandatory by default 2) Should we merge page names and titles in the UI (ie only expose titles and compute page names based on it) 3) Do we want titles to be generated from content if the title is empty or not. If 1) is agreed then there'll always be a title set so this is probably not needed 4) Should we allow wiki syntax in the title field and make that field a textarea rather than a single line string (to allow scripts to generate titles, this is useful for applications for example). Note that currently the title field can only contain velocity and no wiki syntax AFAIK. Any other topic to discuss related to titles? Thanks -Vincent
