[xwiki-devs] VOTE: Integrate LESS in XWiki
by Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau 21 May '14

21 May '14

Needs: As you already know, the new skin, Flamingo, is based on Bootstrap ( http://getbootstrap.com/) which use a CSS Preprocessor to have more flexibility. There is 2 majors competitors in this field: LESS ( http://lesscss.org/) and SASS (http://sass-lang.com/) Bootstrap is using LESS but they also provide an official port for SASS. We need to execute one of these preprocessors at the runtime, to recompile the Bootstrap CSS according to the current Color Theme. After a long thread [1] where we have compared the 2 preprocessors, and after some discussions on IRC, **I am proposing you to choose LESS**. Why: * It is the original preprocessor used by Bootstrap, and so the majority of Bootstrap Themes that we can find on the web provides LESS sources. If we want to be able to use all these themes, using LESS is clearly an advantage. * Caty, Denis and I have a bit of experience with it. Bluebird [2], Junco [3] and the current Flamingo skins are built with LESS. * The syntax is not too close to Velocity, meanwhile SASS is. * The Java integration, using Rhino, works quite well. Although there is an issue [4] for which I have written a patch. I hope the LESS community will handle it. * It looks a bit more popular than SASS. Here is my +1 for using LESS. For the record, this is what I am going to do: * Implement a cache to only compile LESS files when needed, because the computation is costly. The cache will be flushed only when the current color theme is modified. * Write new components and a script service to compile LESS files that are present in the skin directory, partially parsed with Velocity. In the future, we might want to integrate it directly in the Skin Action, but that means we need to change oldcore. Thanks, Guillaume (Louis-Marie) --- [1] The thread "[Proposal] Integrate LESS css in XWiki": http://markmail.org/message/hw45txkv2vk5dnqw [2] Bluebird Skin: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Bluebird+Skin [3] Junco Skin: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Junco+Skin [4] LESS issue: https://github.com/less/less.js/issues/2005

[xwiki-devs] myxwiki.org status
by Ludovic Dubost 18 May '14

18 May '14

Hi, myxwiki.org seem to crash quite a lot recently and we have also detected that it's using a lot of CPU (compared to many other services that XWiki SAS is running). I've taken a memory dump of myxwiki.org to give it a look. I see in the memory analysis 400Mb in the velocimacro structures. This could be normal as there are some caches of macros for each wiki (and there are a lot of wikis), however this is a lot and should be looked at. I've put the page http://www.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Admin/CheckVelocityManager to check if we see any macros being cached that should not be (like the bug we had on USH). In any case, in multiwiki we have an issue with cache of velocity macros which can grow pretty big without any cleaning up when the wiki is not accessed. I've also closed registration on the main wiki (there seem to be spam users) and will run some scripts with check for open wikis and for pages with big RCS (spam suspects). We should in any case reduce the load of myxwiki (private cloud analysis shows a big CPU usage) and for this some cleaning up of unused wiki sounds like a plan. We should contact all users and closed unused wikis (I bet there are a lot).

[xwiki-devs] [IDEA] Start supporting IE10 and IE11
by Andreea Popescu 16 May '14

16 May '14

Hello all, I’m writing this e-mail because I want to propose supporting Internet Explorer 10 and Internet Explorer 11 on 6.x cycle. First of all, it’s known that Internet Explorer 8 and Internet Explorer 9 are still widely used by users, but many of them are currently choosing to update to IE10 and IE11. According to netmarketshare.com (Browsers -> Desktop Share by Version) from a total of 100%, IE10 is used by 6.85% users and IE11 by 16.61% users. It’s true that IE10 is not as popular as the older versions (IE8 - 20.85% and IE9 - 8.89%), but its usage percentage is still significant. Second of all, both versions (IE10 and IE11) have some problems rendering our content sometimes, and you will see that below: IE10 known problems (unfixed) reported on JIRA: 1. XWIKI-10269: Table edit: pressing enter inserts new line in a different table cell 2. XWIKI-10299: The last annotation for a word isn’t displayed on IE10 3. XWIKI-10300: If a text has multiple annotations after removing one of them the text looks like isn’t annotated on IE10 4. XWIKI-10192: The "Username" and "Password" input fields don't have the same size IE11 known problems (unfixed) reported on JIRA: 1. XWIKI-9933: When you press "Alt+C" in IE11 (cancel edition) in edit wiki mode, the wiki session is canceled, but it also appears the "View favourites, feeds and history" option 2. XWIKI-9787: Jump to a page using CTRL+G doesn’t work 3. XWIKI-10192: The "Username" and "Password" input fields don't have the same size Last but not least, since December - January I’ve been testing IE10 and IE11 (smoke tests or full tests) and their biggest problems were with WYSIWYG (you can see that on: XWIKI-9698, XWIKI-10282 and XWIKI-10283). So, what do you think? Andreea
