[xwiki-devs] wysiwyg config
by Paul Libbrecht 17 Dec '13

17 Dec '13

Hello fellow developers, how can I understand how the $services.wysiwyg.config are to be parametrized? These calls are inside templates/macros.vm and generate the javascript config of the wysiwyg editor. We have two platforms which share almost the same code and one of them is showing the wysiwyg editor nicely, the other is missing, for example, the source tab or the links, image, table, and macros buttons. Both are non-configured, inside xwiki.cfg, i.e. the default is used (but those configs seem to be different). What else should I hunt to understand that? thanks in advance. Paul

[xwiki-devs] Creating a lot of subwikis
by Jean SIMARD 16 Dec '13

16 Dec '13

Hi, I need to create a lot of subwikis in a XWiki instance (5.3-milestone-2) for a project and was interested in the possibilities and limits of XWiki. I tried to make a basic stress test to evaluate a maximum number of subwikis that XWiki can handle. I wrote a small report and provide files used on this link: http://hole.tuziwo.info/stress-test-xwiki-for-subwikis-creation.html I'll be happy to have feedback on that. For example, I would like to know if my first method do something bad or if this is a possible bug in XWiki. If this is a bug, I hope this can be improved since I think that I will need more than 1000 subwikis in my project. Hope this helps. Sincerely, -- Jean

[xwiki-devs] [ANN] XWiki 5.3 Released
by Marius Dumitru Florea 13 Dec '13

13 Dec '13

The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki 5.3. This release comes with a new syntax guide and brings improvements to the Solr search, multi-wiki support and the Wiki Stream module. You can now choose the user scope (local, global or both) and also create wiki templates from the wiki creation wizard. The Wiki Stream can be used to import large XARs and content from the Confluence wiki. The Solr search UI has been polished: we added new facets and improved the results display. The Solr index has been modified to support the search for documents matching specific values in multiple object properties and attachments. As a consequence you can now facet and sort the search results based on property values and attachment meta data. A lot of bug fixes (115) and many improvements (55) complete this release and make it worth trying. You can download it here: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download Make sure to review the release notes: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki53 Thanks -The XWiki dev team

[xwiki-devs] Asynchronous tasks in component
by Lukáš Raška 12 Dec '13

12 Dec '13

Hi, as discussed on IRC, I have trouble creating multiple simultaneous tasks from inside component. Creating new thread results in malformed context, which can result in XWikiException. This could probably be avoided using Jobs, but nobody seems to know how exactly. As of 5.1, it should be able to create custom jobs by extending AbstractJob. But how to get context inside that job? Could I use Provider in such way as in ScriptWikiStreamConverterJob? (Multitaskness should be achieved with InstantiationStrategy) About what I need to achieve - component creating API for "videolibrary" extension (converting video attachment in certaing page to web-playable format using libav). Since it should be safe to use, attachment is immediately copied to specified temp folder (filesystem) after uploading. Old attachment is deleted to ensure we didn't convert same file twice (there is no callback with filenames for html5 fileupload widget). After this, video will be converted to specified format and attached to different page (using InputStream?). Is this idea safe to use? (or am I missing another possible problem?) Thanks for replies -- Best Regards Lukas Raska

[xwiki-devs] How to set a properties value on a newly created document
by spoolox 11 Dec '13

11 Dec '13

Hi, I have a document where the user set the name of a document in a textfield to create a new document as described in the FAQ tutorial. How is it possible to set a property of the document's object programmatically? In my case I have a property "id_project" of my class "project". I want to set the value (an automatically generated id value) of this property in the new document right after creating it, without user interaction. It should save the id value with the other values the user defines before saving the document for the first time. Thanks a lot! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/How-to-set-a-properties-value-on-a-newly-… Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-devs] Skip CSS for Print
by Matthias Wegner 10 Dec '13

10 Dec '13

Hi Devs, i want to print pages and can't use 100% Scale because they are to wide. I found with Firefox Inspector that the reason is #contentcolumn .main { margin: 0px !important; } Do you know how i can only disable this for print? I tried #contentcolumn .main { margin: auto; } but this not seems to work. When i disable this css-line in firefox inspector it seems ok.

Hi Devs, i want to render with a macro a content into different file-types which can be downloaded. I think i must use response/request to "deliver", but not sure how i can do that.
