by David Delbecq 27 Jun '12

27 Jun '12

Hello, i have a groovy script that generates an xwiki table from an LDAP nodes listing. In the node is a picture (jpeg as a byte[]), and i wonder how i can display this byte[] as a picture. I tried to understand how charting plugin does this job (have template generate a picture that is later queried by browser) but i didn't understand the principle. Can someone explain me how to do this? David Delbecq

[xwiki-devs] Xwiki admin install and migration guides
by Kaya Saman 27 Jun '12

27 Jun '12

Hi, I got a personal request from Vincent Massol wanting me to update everyone on the status of my documentation project for installing Xwiki on non-mainstream systems - by that I mean Linux. In writing the documents I had 3, for installing on FreeBSD w/Tomcat, Solaris w/Gassfish, and a migration guide. These are now complete! There are some notes at the bottom of the Migration Guide; don't pay any attention to these as they are obsolete with Nexenta merging with OpenIndiana..... http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/BSD_Install http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/Glassfish_Solaris http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/BSD_Migration I would like these to go 'live' and be put onto the production site if applicable! Regards, Kaya

[xwiki-devs] Filesystem Attachment Storage and Page Versioning Issue
by Jan Matuska 27 Jun '12

27 Jun '12

Hello Devs, I am using XWiki 4.0 with filesystem attachment storage and face the following problem: 1. Add a new page, make several edits and save. In the history section of the page navigate to any previous version - no problem. 2. Now insert an attachment (e.g. an image) to the page, save. Do some more edits to the page, save. In the history section navigate to previous versions of the page. It will work with versions previous to the attachment upload. Navigating to any version that was saved after the attachment upload will cause the following problem: Error number 4001 in 4: Error while parsing velocity page /templates/contentview.vm Wrapped Exception: Failed to evaluate content with id [/templates/contentview.vm] and ... Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.xwiki.store.legacy.store.internal.FilesystemAttachmentRecycleBinStore.getAllDeletedAttachments(FilesystemAttachmentRecycleBinStore.java:293) at com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiServletURLFactory.findDeletedAttachmentForDocRevision(XWikiServletURLFactory.java:573) at com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiServletURLFactory.createAttachmentURL(XWikiServletURLFactory.java:390) at com.xpn.xwiki.doc.DefaultDocumentAccessBridge.getAttachmentURL(DefaultDocumentAccessBridge.java:606) ... 3. Now, instead of viewing an older version of that page, rollback to any version previous to attachment upload. 4. Only after this rollback all previous versions are visible and do not cause an error any more. It seams that XWiki is missing a folder of deleted attachments and fails to render versions following an attachment upload, therefore. When I perform the rollback a "deleted_attachments" folder is generated in the filesystem and the error dissappears. To have all page versions available you have to perform a rollback and -forward after every new attachment upload. This is not very elegant - are there any other solutions or am I missing out something? Besides of this filesystem is a fine thing since I have some very large attachments. However, version control is important for me. Is there a solution or should I switch to Database Storage again? Thanks for any advise, Helge -- NEU: FreePhone 3-fach-Flat mit kostenlosem Smartphone!

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Move contrib JIRA macro to retired and hijack JIRA Macro page on e.x.o.
by Vincent Massol 26 Jun '12

26 Jun '12

Hi Sorin and devs, As agreed on http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/kwqkxrseejdmanc3 I've implemented a new JIRA macro in the xwiki-rendering module. It's written in java and has unit and integration tests. The commit is: https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-rendering/commit/47fa81c964aebfa10523d8d135d… The new macro is superset of the old one. I'd like to propose to: * Move the current contrib JIRA macro to retired * Move the current content of http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/JIRA+Macro to "Wiki JIRA Macro" * Document the new JIRA macro on http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/JIRA+Macro * Cross-link the 2 pages with an info box I'm going to start the page move since I don't see any problem with that. Let me know if you have an issue. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [UX] [Vision] Collaborative Editing
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 26 Jun '12

26 Jun '12

Hi, Over my time spent in XWiki I have had several discussions with Sergiu, Marta, Marius, Eduard about making the editing process more collaborative and rewarding for the contributors. I finally made a proposal that encapsulated the following use cases: - UC1: *Concurrent Editing * - Allow multiple users to edit a page at the same time with local versions and propose to merge any eventual conflicts after pressing save - UC2: *Viewing History Versions* - When viewing the page history, be able to distinguish also the magnitude of the contribution brought by the version - UC3: *Viewing History Statistics* - Be able to quickly scan how the content changed over time, how much content each contributor invested and each contributor's role (editor, commentator, attacher) - UC4: *Viewing History Content Overview* - Be able to blame someone for a certain portion of the content and also visually scan the contribution's magnitude of each contributor Although the discussions also contained more elaborate/fun topics (like reputation mechanisms for contributors, achievements, etc.) this proposal covers just the mentioned use cases. You can view the proposal at: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/CollaborativeEditi… Feedback or other suggestion that match the purpose ("By rewarding participation, the contributors will feel appreciated and will want to contribute more.") of this proposal are welcomed. Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Title improvements (for 4.2 or 4.3)
by Vincent Massol 25 Jun '12

25 Jun '12

Hi guys, Some time back we started improving title handling, I'd like that we continue this and I'm proposing some further improvements below: * Make the title field contain wiki syntax (same as the content field) instead of just velocity * Make the title field a textarea so that we can have more than 1 line * Display a textarea of 1 line initially (to preserve space) but enlarge the textarea visibility by several line on the first Enter keypress in the field * Stop trying to extract title content from the doc content * Have a backward compat param to still support the old mode, but have it off by default in 4.2/4.3 <side> * Introduce a {{i18n}} macro (or {{translate}}, or …) </side> Advantages: * Same as the content field - More consistency * More power since we use wiki syntax and we can use any script language * Removes the WTF symptom when a user edits a page having velocity script in the title since they'll see it displayed in WYSIWYG mode with the title content evaluated * Removes the uncertainty about title extraction (for ex if some macro generates headings) but still allow it if it's really needed - Since the user will be able to write scripts in the title textarea and those scripts can extract stuff from the doc content if they really need it * We'll be able to add a l18n macro and thus display the title translations nicely in the wysiwyg editor WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

Re: [xwiki-devs] [GSoC] Responsive Skin

Hello Friends, > What about having a drop down of recently used spaces under the space > menue > and wikis under wiki menue on the top.. It currently has document index > only. That's a good idea I think. I'll do one (better?) and put it under the quicklinks, since it is pretty relevant there and will be more visible, what do you guys think? Thanks. I'll take some time to look into this deeper. Maybe you could start > committing the row HTML/CSS/JS in a repository on your github account, so > that it's easier to collaborate on. Sounds good: https://github.com/jssolichin/xorange Unfortunately, I have yet integrate to XWIKI, but for the most part most the skin is as it was in the mock up (desktop). The menu, the issue I had with the scrollbar, and so forth has been resolved. Again http://jssolichin.com/xwiki will show the latest version of where I am at. My next step is to begin down scaling--testing compatibility with tablet (which should not take too long (starting with the 2 column collapse, line breaks etc. )), then finally to mobile and enabling the hidden sidebar function. There are some closer refinements such as font detail etc. that I will begin to compile as I do the next few steps and then I will clear them out together. The community can help me to find these refinements as well. Interestingly, this small library has just been published today: > http://fat.github.com/coffin/ > It might be interesting for you as either inspiration or even support for > implementation.

Sasinda, thanks, that is really cool. Although I agree with Jerome that it's not the best for this, it is good to know that it is out there. Thank you for chiming in! Personally Arch Linux and Open JDK, but that should not change anything. Yea, i know technically it shouldn't. But i've been having a few problem with my present distro, so i'm trying to remove any differences and what not. Thanks for the info.

Great! Thank you for that clarification. Thanks again for all the help everyone, Jonathan Solichin
