[xwiki-devs] gsoc 2011: introduction of Jamexu

by 许凌志(Jamesxu)

Hi, everyone: I am James Xu, and now I am an undergraduate student. I would like to join GSoc this year. I am interested in the idea "Auto Completion in Content Editors". I have more than 4 years web developemnt, php for 4 years, and java for 3 years. For java web development, I used SSH(struts2+spring+hibernate) often, and I also have project experience using velocity as view layer. Beside, I am very interested in front-end design, and have more than 3 years experience in javascript development, I am the one of the early user of dojo since the 0.9 version, and I am now using jquery a lot, I am also a big fans of google, I start getting to know GWT this year, but I think I would be a quick learner based on the kownledge gained from other tools and my own experiences. Though I don't have experience in developing rich text editor before, but I had used a lot of them, and also I have done one project related to auto completion for facted search input form of the resource search system. I read some documents of the idea page, I am attracted by the autocompletion functions for a web rich text editor, I think we can refer to the eclipse HTML editor, when you first typing "<", there will be a suggest box for next input of html tags, and it will be narrowed when you type more. I think it can be applied to xwiki editor for various syntax. For example, if user type"{{", then it should suggest him a list like"code,box..."which are the macro tags started with "{{", when user type "enter", then it will insert to the text area the following: "{{box cssClass="" title="" width=""}} {{/box}}" I think this will save the time for user to type all the macro tags by them own. Another useful function could be the same as described in the idea page, when user type "[[" it will auto suggest the documents of the wiki. However, some of the xwiki syntaxes are different from the enclosure style of HTML tags, and some function looks very intuitive, it will be very confusing when using it, so I should think more about it. Hope you all can give me some tips to complete this idea. thank you very much and I would like to participate in GSoC-2011. I am mainly interested in contributing to the project idea "Mobile Skin for XWiki Enterprise". I have been working on web development for the past two years and developed a couple of websites. I have a good knowledge of HTML,XHTML and CSS , I also know PHP and am learning Javascript. If someone could help me regarding this , I would be really thankful. -- Best wishes, 许凌志(Jame Xu) MOE KLINNS Lab and SKLMS Lab, Xi'an Jiaotong University Department of Computer Science and Technology, Xi’an Jiaotong University

[xwiki-devs] Testing Dashboards in 3.0 snapshot

by Ludovic Dubost

Hi, I've tried the dashbord on 3.0 snapshot and could not make the "Add Gadget" function work on an empty dashboard. From what I see the issue seems to be in the wysiwyg code. I got the dialog box from the wysiwyg, when clicking on Insert Gadget" I got an exception: uncaught exception: Class$dF: One or more exceptions caught, see full set in UmbrellaException#getCauses at function nr(){try{null.a()}catch(b){return b}} This issue seemed to only happen with an empty dashboard macro (with not gadget yet added). I think we need to work on two things for each feature that we are developping: 1/ Having a status of where we are: In the case of Dashboard, I think that's updating this page: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/Gadget+Scenarios+Prioritized 2/ Write a test plan and have Sorin include the testing of new features in his testing. For that he needs to know how to test and what is supposed to be there/not there. Concerning the development priorities, I think for the next period of development on the dashboard we need to focus on wiring the UI for "beginners", making it easy for them to create their first dashboard. In my view this is in priority: - Create page with a dashboard macro (In the Add Menu in XE) - Go to edit more (I'm still convinced that we need the dashboard editing in "view" mode and not in "inline" mode) - Add a column in your dashboard - Editing a dashboard Also for the 3.1 timeframe I think we need to have some brainstorm to add some more "Dashboard" friendly macros/gadgets to make dashboards more usefull and interesting for users, but that's another story. Right now I think the most important is that we agree on the priorities for the next step and that for 3.0 we have a simple but coherent dashboard feature.

[xwiki-devs] [Idea] Implementing a Log console inside XE

by Vincent Massol

Hi, Right now logs go to a file on the filesystem. However this is not right since most logs are application logs and should be visible to wiki developers. For ex, if I use a deprecated API, I need to see it. It shouldn't go to admins only and shouldn't "pollute" the system logs. Hence I believe we need a Log Console available somewhere (we could make it avail in the Admin UI FTM). I'd like to discuss an implementation idea I've had this morning: * Send application logs as Observation Events and make the available in the Activity Stream (AS) Pros: * Infrastructure already in place * Fits the AS goal: temporary information and is purged regularly * (Of course the Activity gadget would not display them) * They can be sent remotely as remote events in the future; this allows implementing a remote console to monitor an XE or XEM from a distance Cons: * We need to assess the performance risk and more generally we need to make the AS scalable (I don't think it is now). * 2 ideas for scaling up the Observation/AS: 1) Have the Observation Manager save events to be notified into a Queue and have one or several separate threads take those events and send them to listeners. Right now if one listener takes time in its onEvent() method it slows down the whole chain since they are called serially. Note that if we want even better scalability, the Queue could be stored externally to XWiki (a JMS queue for ex) and scalability can be achieved by app server instances listening to this queue to process it. 2) Have a way to tell the AS what storage to use for specific Event Types. For example the AS could use an in-memory storage for Log Events while using a DB storage for other events. This would be useful since I don't think we really need to store logs in the DB. Note that the cache could be indexed on the message so only one instance of each log message is preserved (no need for dups), possibly with a counter to mention how many of them there were (that's an optimization). I believe 2) might be enough for performances in a first implementation of the log console. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-notifications] r35698 - platform/web/trunk/standard/src/main/webapp/templates

by Vincent Massol

Hi Sergiu, I would have thought that users would only need the delete (or edit but I prefer delete) rights to remove comments. Could you explain the rationale? BTW for logged in users, what do they need now?

[xwiki-devs] Postmortem notes after the myxwiki.org upgrade of 17 March 2011

by Vincent Massol

Things noticed that we should improve ============================== 1) When the apache server on myxwiki.org is down there's no maintenance page appearing. We should get a nice "maintenance in progress" page. 2) When doing upgrades it's best to plan it a bit ahead of time and notify of the upcoming upgrade using the myxwiki twitter account/mailing list 3) In the upgrade notes, I'd like to suggest that we do things differently: - before restarting tomcat, stop apache (after disabling the crontab) - create a tunnel to your local machine: ~C + -L8080:<ip>:8080 (you get the ip using /sbin/ifconfig) - start tomcat - ensure it all works fine - upgrade the XARs - verify all is ok - restart apache 4) Right now port 8080 is open on apache, this needs to be closed 5) we should subscribe the notifications list to the main wiki on myxwiki.org to perform community checking of the wiki Who can help perform 1), 4), 5)? I can do 3). Problems fixed while doing the upgrade =============================== I noticed that one user page was called frequently in the logs and after checking it had over 3K comments, all spams with lots of external URLs. I removed this page but we need to watch out for pages giving xwik guest rights to edit/comment on them. I hope this was the problem causing lots of downtime on myxwiki.org and poor perfs. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Bugfixing day tomorrow

by Sergiu Dumitriu

Hi community, Time flies when you're having fun, so we missed last week's Thursday bugfixing day (which would have made it a monthly event). So, tomorrow there will be another bugfixing day, in preparation for a clean 3.0 release. As usual, everyone is welcome to participate in bugfixing, but not only: bug triage and bug reporting is also very much appreciated. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-notifications] r35662 - platform/xwiki-applications/trunk/administration/src/main/resources/XWiki

by Vincent Massol

Hi Sergiu, Isn't it wrong for the Admin app to depend on the XE application? IMO the attachmentselector app should be in another app on which the Admin depend on, and the XE app should depend on the Admin app, not the other way around Thanks -Vincent On Mar 17, 2011, at 2:31 AM, sdumitriu (SVN) wrote: > Author: sdumitriu > Date: 2011-03-17 02:31:42 +0100 (Thu, 17 Mar 2011) > New Revision: 35662 > > Modified: > platform/xwiki-applications/trunk/administration/src/main/resources/XWiki/XWikiUserSheet.xml > Log: > XAADMINISTRATION-257: Improve the UI for changing the user's avatar > Done. > Patch from Marta Girdea applied without changes. > > Modified: platform/xwiki-applications/trunk/administration/src/main/resources/XWiki/XWikiUserSheet.xml > =================================================================== > --- platform/xwiki-applications/trunk/administration/src/main/resources/XWiki/XWikiUserSheet.xml 2011-03-17 00:54:43 UTC (rev 35661) > +++ platform/xwiki-applications/trunk/administration/src/main/resources/XWiki/XWikiUserSheet.xml 2011-03-17 01:31:42 UTC (rev 35662) > @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ > <web>XWiki</web> > <name>XWikiUserSheet</name> > <language></language> > -<defaultLanguage>en</defaultLanguage> > +<defaultLanguage></defaultLanguage> > <translation>0</translation> > <parent>Main.XWikiUsers</parent> > <creator>xwiki:XWiki.Admin</creator> > @@ -167,11 +167,6 @@ > userprofile : { > > init : function() { > - if ($('avatar')) { > - Event.observe($('avatar'), 'mouseover', function() { XWiki.userprofile.displayChangePhoto('true') });
