[xwiki-devs] Potentially missing deps on translation macro module

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Recently we've done a big work of converting the old $msg into $services.localization or {{translation/}}. Every time we've done that in a module we need to add a dependency in its pom on the appropriate localization module. I haven't checked fully if we've done this or not but it's possible that some functional tests don't fail because they don't test everything so we need to review the POMs. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Should we imply more than the delete right for document creator ?

by Denis Gervalle

Hi devs, While introducing the new security module, we have added a new right named "creator", only applicable at document level, it is automatically applied on documents for their creator. This right is not really checked for itself, but it imply the delete right with a tie resolution policy of allow, and a inheritance policy of not deniable. This give a document creator the right to delete the document whatever other policies could say about him. Since having only delete right on a document does not seems really logical, I am wondering if it would not be good to make the creator right also imply the view, and the edit right. This would give to document creators consistant minimal right on their documents, what ever the policy of the wiki is. WDYT ? -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa - CEO eGuilde sarl - CTO

[xwiki-devs] Mobile XWiki Client and Mobile Skin repositories on xwiki-contrib

by Ludovic Dubost

As discussed a while ago, I'm finally made public the Mobile XWiki Client code I've been working on. I've transfered the repository as well as the mobile skin repository to xwiki-contrib https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/mobile-standardxwikiclient https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/skin-mobile-simple The next step for the mobile client is a rework to be: 1/ More modular to allow for additional module and UI changes to allowed by plugins. 2/ A rework of the network layer to be able to queue requests to XWiki and manager errors and retries as well as login.

Re: [xwiki-devs] How to add a user to a group programmatically?

by jordiduran

Hello, first I would like to say thank you for your reply, and tell you I use XEM 4.0. I use the code bellow to authorize a user and the same time to assign in a group, if he/she doesn't exist. The problems is when the code performs the assignment in a group, since you are not logged in, you are a XWikiGuest, the group page have to have explicit rights (edit) for the guest. /** * * @author jdurancal */ @Component public class LTIAuthServiceImpl extends XWikiAuthServiceImpl { @Override public Principal authenticate(String username, String password, XWikiContext context) throws XWikiException { XWikiServletRequest request = (XWikiServletRequest) context.getRequest(); if (!context.getAction().equalsIgnoreCase("logout")) { try { LTIEnvironment LTIEnvironment = new LTIEnvironment(request); if (LTIEnvironment.isAuthenticated()) { String usernameLTI = LTIEnvironment.getUserName(); if (usernameLTI.contains(":")) { usernameLTI = usernameLTI.split(":")[1]; } // get the group to assigna to the user. String group = LTIEnvironment.getParameter("custom_groups"); return syncUser(usernameLTI, group, context, LTIEnvironment.isInstructor()); } else { Exception lastException = LTIEnvironment.getLastException(); System.out.println("Error LTI authentication " + (lastException != null ? lastException.getMessage() : "")); } } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println("Execption authentication " + ex); } } // Fallback on standard XWiki authentication return super.authenticate(username, password, context); } /** * Creates the user if he doesn't exist in the XWiki repository. User is assigned * to the default XWikiAllGroup * @param user * @param context * @throws com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException */ protected Principal syncUser(String user, String groupName, XWikiContext context, boolean isInstructor) throws XWikiException { String xwikiUser = super.findUser(user, context); String wikiNameShow = context.getDatabase(); System.out.println("["+wikiNameShow+"] usernameLTI="+user+", GroupsLTI:"+groupName); if (xwikiUser == null) { System.out.println("["+wikiNameShow+"] LTI Create user: User " + user + " does not exist"); String wikiname = context.getWiki().clearName(user, true, true, context); context.getWiki().createEmptyUser(wikiname, "edit", context); System.out.println("["+wikiNameShow+"] LTI Create user: User " + user + " has been created"); xwikiUser = "XWiki."+user; // if the user is "instructor", assign admin rights except in speakapps wiki if (isInstructor && !context.getWiki().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("speakapps")) { try { this.addUserGroup(xwikiUser, user, "XWikiAdminGroup", context); }catch(Exception ex) { System.out.println("["+wikiNameShow+"] Execption adding admin user "+ex); } } } // És un group però no és l'administrador if (groupName != null && !groupName.equalsIgnoreCase("XWikiAdminGroup")) { try { this.addUserGroup(xwikiUser, user, groupName, context); }catch(Exception ex) { System.out.println("["+wikiNameShow+"] Execption adding user a \""+groupName+"\" group "+ex); } } return new SimplePrincipal(context.getDatabase() + ":" + xwikiUser); } private boolean addUserGroup(String xwikiUser, String user, String groupName, XWikiContext context) throws XWikiException { boolean isAdded = false; Group group = Group.getGroup("XWiki", groupName, context); if (group != null && !group.isMember(xwikiUser, context)) { if (group.addUser(user, context)) { group.save(context); isAdded = true; System.out.println("["+context.getDatabase()+"] add a \""+groupName+"\" member " + xwikiUser); } } return isAdded; } } Best regards. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/How-to-add-a-user-to-a-group-programmatic… Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-devs] [ANN] Test Reporting Application

by Sorin Burjan

Hello everybody, I have created a Test Reporting Application in order to make the Manual Testing Plan more easily to follow and execute. The rationale behind this is: * Hard to update a monolith page with all the manual tests performed * When someone who is testing is updating the page, no other user can update the page * It allows existing manual cases to be marked as automated (if we have an automated tests for them) * Easier to follow, track over what has been tested and what not Since I'd like to propose this to be used in the XWiki community for our Manual Test cases, I have put a live version on Incubator along with some test cases so I can get your suggestions before putting it in actual production/usage. I'm sure you will have some cool suggestions on how to improve it even further. So give it a try. I have also added a suggestions page linked form the application homepage. Note that the application was designed to be generic, so everybody can use it in their own software project. Contrib repo: https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-testreporting Incubator Live version: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/QA/WebHome Suggestions page: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/QA/Suggestions Looking forward to get your feedback ! Regards, Sorin B.
