[xwiki-devs] text highlighting event
by PATEL, ABDULKADAR 16 Sep '15

16 Sep '15

Hi all, Is there a way to handle text highlight event in xwiki? In annotation component, when we highlight some text and then press ctrl+M, Annotations popup is displayed. How is this achieved? I want to display a popup when user highlights some text on an xwiki page. The popup will have a text box which will be pre-populated with the highlighted text. Please suggest me a proper approach to achieve this. Thanks in advance. Thanks & Regards, ____________________________________________________________________ [cid:[email protected]]Abdulkadar Patel Consultant | GESBU Capgemini India | Pune Tel.: +91 20 6631 1755 - Extn: 20 12530 Mob.: + 91 8087683419 Email: abdulkadar.patel(a)capgemini.com<mailto:[email protected]> www.capgemini.com<http://www.capgemini.com/> People matter, results count. _______________________________________________________________________ 7 Switch off as you go |q Recycle always | P Print only if absolutely necessary

[xwiki-devs] Bundle platform-security-script when creating a war with Packager plugin
by Marius Dumitru Florea 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

Hi devs, Checkout this commit https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/1805c5b1c2cf58d69760c1e0755c… and it's comment. I added platform-security-script as mandatory top level artifact in PackageMojo in order to fix some functional tests in platform. I consider it to be a core module and ideally it should be brought indirectly as a transitive dependency of the modules that are using it. The problem is that I'm using it in the Velocity templates from platform-web which doesn't declare any dependency ATM (they are declared in enterprise-web). This is a quick fix for 7.2RC1. If you have a better solution please speak. Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] Inconsistency between the breadcrumb and the document tree on a subwiki
by Marius Dumitru Florea 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

Hi devs, I recently discussed with Edy about how the breadcrumb should look and there may be an inconsistency with the hierarchy displayed by the document tree. Breadcrumb on the main wiki: Home Icon (pointing to the main wiki home page) / MDoc1 / MDoc2 / ... / MDocX Breadcrumb on a subwiki (that has only global users): Home Icon (pointing to the main wiki home page) / Subwiki Pretty Name (pointing to the subwiki home page) / SDoc1 / SDoc2 / ... / SDocX After seeing the breadcrumbs both on the main wiki and on a subwiki the user might think that the document MDoc1 and the wiki "Subwiki Pretty Name" are on the same level: both children of the main wiki. Next if the user tries the document tree macro using: {{documentTree showWikis="true" /}} he will notice that "Subwiki Pretty Name" is not actually a child of the main wiki but a top level node (a child of the "farm"), on the same level with the main wiki. Can this be considered as an inconsistency? In our model (e.g. document reference) there is no hierarchy between wikis, although, as Edy pointed out, there are places where we consider the main wiki to be the "parent" of the subwikis (e.g. in the authorization module, by inheriting access rights from the main wiki). WDYT? Is the main wiki the parent of the subwikis or just a sibling? Should the breadcrumb be synchronized with the tree? Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] [UX][Consistency][Vote] "Page" vs. "Document" consistent naming
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 09 Sep '15

09 Sep '15

Hi, We are using mixed naming when referring to a document/page, not only on different pages, but also in the same context (Rename step for example). There is also an issue referring to this problem XWIKI-5401<http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5401>and we need to find an answer in order to move forward consistency. So the question is which version we prefer: "Page" or "Document" ? I'm voting +1 for "Page". "Page" is more used IMO, especially in the "Space"/"Page" context. "Page" is more general than "Document" and better fitted for a platform that encapsulates all kind of content (not just documents). Please cast your vote. Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] New Best Practices in the App Guide
by vincent＠massol.net 09 Sep '15

09 Sep '15

Hi devs, Following a discussion at http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12327# I’d like to propose to add this new best practice in the App Guide, i.e. at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/BestPractices Rule: Do not use Skin-specific resources in Extensions/Applications Rationale: If you do, then your Extension/Application will only work for that Skin. When the default skin in XWiki is modified, your Extension/Application will stop to work fine. Example: This is what happened in apps like in the Forum app which was using: getSkinFile(“noavatar.png”) where “noavatar.png” was a Colibri-skin resource only. The Forum app was broken when we moved to Flamingo and the Forum app had to be modified to use getSkinFile("icons/xwiki/noavatar.png”) which is better since it’s a global resource, thus available to all Skins (see https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-forum/commit/3d3a99e5665265607…) WDYT? Anyone disagree? I’d like to clos this topic quickly so that we can close XWIKI-12327. Thanks -Vincent PS: Additional idea (I don’t know if it’s feasible): I wonder if we could even prevent getSkinFile() to return a skin-specific resource if the originating code is not from a resource from this Skin or if the originating code is not located in a Children Skin (i.e. a skin css, skin jss or skin vm). i.e. consider that skin-specific resources have a private access level.

The code used to call the Jira REST web service is a server side code then you can't excute the code in javascript. You will need a wiki page, see here how to create a new page ( http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GettingStarted/CreatingAPage) Put the groovy code in that page as explained in the service documentation. Then you can communicate with the service with javascript using Ajax requests.

In following article, it is nicely explained how we can integrate xwiki with jira using groovy http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/JIRA+REST+Integration But I don't understand how can I call this groovy code in xwiki. I have created a popup dialog which will take information from user and create jira issue on submit. How can I call groovy code on click of submit button? Any help will be highly appreciated.

[xwiki-devs] Creating a new modal popup dialog widget

Hi all, I am very new to xwiki customization. So this query might seem quite novice. I have a requirement where I need to display a new modal popup dialog on some shortcut key press. I tried to replicate the code written for jumpToPage widget and modified shortcut key in ApplicationResource.properties But dialog is not displayed on pressing new shortcut keys. Can someone tell me which all files need to be modified to add such dialog?

[xwiki-devs] [Contrib] Request for a new project
by Jean SIMARD 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Hi devs, Lately, I've been working on some sort of new format to import information in XWiki [1] (I'm not that comfortable with editing XAR format with my text editor). You'll find an example of this format in the testing procedure of my module [2]. To create this format, I used the XML Schema described in the REST API of XWiki [3]. To code the importer, I've used the filter module [4]. I've also create a REST service in order to import through REST (using filters) [5]. I'd like that project be a part of xwiki-contrib. At the moment, I've called it 'api-xwf'. Maybe 'api-xwiki-format' would be more self explicit. If you'd prefer something else, please let me know. Thanks, [1] https://github.com/woshilapin/api-xwf [2] https://github.com/woshilapin/api-xwf/tree/master/xwf-filter-stream/src/tes… [3] https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwi… [4] http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Filter+Module [5] https://github.com/woshilapin/api-xwf/tree/master/xwf-rest-api -- Jean Simard jean.simard(a)xwiki.com Research engineer at XWiki SAS http://www.xwiki.com Committer on the XWiki.org project http://www.xwiki.org
