Has any work been done regarding XWiki over an HDFS file system or database? I saw a mention of Cassandra in an older post in this list, but I'm unclear on if Cassandra really runs over HDFS. -- Mark Wallace Principal Engineer, Semantic Applications Modus Operandi, Inc.

[xwiki-devs] You're being referenced :)

by coldserenity

Just FYI, LDAP group mapping turned out to be quite popular topic. And XWiki has been referenced for implementation: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SONARPLUGINS-895 Their work is still in progress (right now they update plug-in documentation) but it looks like XWiki implementation is still better :) http://docs.codehaus.org/display/SONAR/LDAP+Plugin Regards, Roman -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/You-re-being-referenced-tp7388479p7388479… Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Add new Image macro to xwiki-platform

by Vincent Massol

Hi everyone, I'd like to propose to add an Image macro that would do the following: * display a border * display a caption (if it's defined by the user) * display a link to see the image full screen * define default sizes and scale it to the default one but allow specifying other sizes Basically the idea is to be able to easily display images as on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flora_and_fauna_of_Orissa See also http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-7602 The idea is that we would use it on xwiki.org but I also think it makes it nicer for people who wish to display images in their wikis. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] merge branch 'feature-user-profile-information-editor' into master in 4.0M2

by Eduard Moraru

Hi devs, I`ve worked on allowing an admin to more easily customize the information that is displayed on the user profile, once he has added some new fields to the XWikiUsers class (like "interests", "hobbies", "favorite books", etc). The first version is without javascript. Please have a look at the pull request [1] (and the issue [2]) and cast your vote whether we can merge it into master for 4.0M2 or not. Here's my +1. Thanks, Eduard ---------- [1] https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/pull/38 [2] http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-7626

[xwiki-devs] Employing the security manager

by Andreas Jonsson

Hi everyone! I have experimented with the Java security manager to see how it can be used to divide the XWiki platform into domains with different sets of privileges. My initial thought was that a customized security manager would be necessary, but I now think that the standard security manager is sufficient. But unless I have missed something, the policy file will necessarily be complex, because it is not possible to place jar-files in different subdirectories in a servlet and therefore wildcarding cannot be used in the policy file. But to simplify the policy management, I suggest using a tool at build-time to generate the policy file. More details about my thoughts on this can be found here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/Security+Manager By enabling the security manager like this, we can allow unprivileged users to write Groovy and Python scripts as well as reducing the risk that references to exploitable objects leak to unprivileged velocity scripts. I have already started working on a Maven mojo for generating the policy file, and I will shortly add a feature branch for this. Please, let me know what you think. Best Regards, /Andreas

[xwiki-devs] How to insert an image programmatically into inline form and the image will show up when the blog post inline form shows up

by du du

Hi, all, I am playing around with the blog post application, when users click on the create post button, it brings up the inline form for users to put text in, I have another requirement, we need to write some code somewhere to retrieve an image url from a database,, so when the inline form shows up after users click create post button, the image automatically shows up in the inline form, my question is where should I put the code in? also the BlogPostClass and BlogPostTemplate have TextArea objects, which create GWT inline form, this is where I need to put image in programmatically, so I am thinking about accessing the GWT code to insert image, could you all point me to the right direction about how to approach this to put image into the inline form programmatically? Thanks very much in advance David

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Add support for hiding long text in Message Macros

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, I see that in several pages we have a use the following: {{error}} $error.message {{/error}} Where error is an Exception returned by a script service. This is done in the Scheduler, in the Extension Manager and in the my new IRC Bot application. The problem is that this will only show the message but not the full stack trace which contains the real problem… So here's what I propose: 1) Create an internal helper WrappingTextBlockGenerator.generate() class (I'd locate it in the Macro Transformation module for lack of a better place, see point 4 below) and method which returns the XDOM Blocks to do this. Namely two divs with the proper "class" set. 2) Introduce a VelocityTool to help deal with Exceptions. I propose to make ExceptionUtils from commons-lang available as a Velocity Tool: http://commons.apache.org/lang/api/org/apache/commons/lang3/exception/Excep… 3) Modify the Message Macro to support the feature of displaying only the first line of text and hiding subsequent lines and when the user clicks on the text, the rest unrolls. I propose to do this by introducing a new "format" parameter that you would use like this: {{info|warning|error format="compact|normal"}}….{{/info|warning|error}}. By default format would be "normal" which means everything displayed. This feature would use WrappingTextBlockGenerator.generate for the implementation. 4) Update MacroTransformation.generateError() to use WrappingTextBlockGenerator.generate 5) Modify Scheduler, Extension Manager, IRC Bot application to use this new feature. For example for the IRC Bot application: #set ($error = $botManager.getLastError()) #if ("$!error" != "") {{error format="compact"}} $error.message $exceptiontool.getMessage($error) {{/error}} #end WWDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Your version of 'a better' XWiki

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi, When the XWiki development team wants to introduce some new features or when we need some improvements on existing functionality, I sometimes make proposals on how these features/improvements should look like. You can see some of my work at http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/WebHome IMO XWiki is a great tool for developers because they can change anything they like and make XWiki bend to their will. Also, XWiki talks a lot the 'developer/administrator' language that new users find cryptic. Some also say that the learning curve for XWiki is steep and that beginners have lots of problems in understanding the structure, finding the documentation, navigating, etc. I'm sure every developer that used XWiki as a base for constructing their project got into these 'new user' issues and tried to fix them as best as they could. Although XWiki is an open source project where anyone can contribute, sometimes time is not on our side and makes it difficult to contribute back. I would be very curious on how some 'independent' XWiki developers solved some of the usability issues XWiki is facing: how they made it more easy to use, more good looking, more intuitive, more clear, more simple. Right now I'm thinking on how to improve the homepage, but I would love to see *screenshots* of any aspect that was improved (profile, administration, rights, history, comments, anything). Sharing these screenshots could inspire others make their project better and would step outside the 'just an idea' mode. Also there is a chance we could integrate them in the platform so that everyone can benefit. Thank you for your help, Caty

Hello XWikiers, I've just had a demo of pontoon: https://pontoon-dev.mozillalabs.com/ I wonder how applicable this can be for XWiki based platforms. It is llkely to generate a bit of trash but the "in-context" adjustment really looks cute and applicable to many cases to me. paul

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Add a Script Service for the Component module

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I'd like to propose adding a module named xwiki-platform-component-script in xwiki-platform. It would allow a script to get access to the Component Manager (for now, we can imagine other apis later on). The idea is to replace the ugly static and "deprecated": com.xpn….Util.getComponentManager() Of course the script Service will check for Programming Rights before giving back a CM instance. This follows the strategy of offering script services for each module. Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] JSON Velocity Tool (Reloaded)

by Marius Dumitru Florea

Hi devs, Following the discussion on http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/devs/2012-March/049889.html I'd like to add a JSON Velocity tool that has (for now) just one method: /** * Serialize a Java object to the JSON format. * <p> * Examples: * <ul> * <li>numbers and boolean values: 23, 13.5, true, false</li> * <li>strings: "one\"two'three" (quotes included)</li> * <li>arrays and collections: [1, 2, 3]</li> * <li>maps: {"number": 23, "boolean": false, "string": "value"}</li> * <li>beans: {"enabled": true, "name": "XWiki"} for a bean that has #isEnabled() and #getName() getters</li> * </ul> * * @param object the object to be serialized to the JSON format * @return the JSON-verified string representation of the given object */ public String serialize(Object object) This method is able to do what both of the initially proposed methods were able and it doesn't expose the JSON library used (so that we can change it later if we want). I'll use json-lib for the initial implementation and we can move to Jackson or other JSON library later. WDYT? I'd like to commit this ASAP. Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] surprise change velocity 1.5 => 1.7

by Paul Libbrecht

Hello fellow developers, I am working on upgrading our core, based on xwiki 1.5.4 to xwiki 3.2. Quite a jump. Among the least jump, velocity seems to have jumped from version 1.5 to version 1.7. Nonetheless, this seems to cause a surprising effect: while macros could redefine the value of parameters they were passed, and that change was honoured after the macro, they cannot anymore. The following script: > #macro(redefine $var) > #set($var="redefined") > #end > > #set($x="original") > > x is $x > > #redefine($x) > > x is $x gives the following output in a new core: > x is original > > x is original > and the following in our old core: > x is original > > x is redefined > This has all sorts of consequences including such macros as the navigation not receiving the result of normalizelink... Did I miss an optional parameter of velocity to revert to the old method? paul

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Move JBossCache based cached implementation to retired repository

by Thomas Mortagne

Hi devs, I would like to upgrade to JGroups 3 (we use it for clustering and there is lots of (mostly speed) improvements in the 3.x branch). But I have an issue: JBossCache is incompatible with JGroups 3 (even if JGroups should be totally useless in the way we use JBossCache). Here are some other pros removing JBossCache base implementation: * we don't use it ourself anymore * JBossCache is dead (replaced by Infinispan) So WDYT ? Here is my +1 to retire JBossCache based cache implementation. -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Move history when moving stuff from repositories of "xwiki" organization

by Thomas Mortagne

Hi devs, Since I plan to move some stuff from platform to commons I would like to know what you think of the history in this case. Pros including history: * can access easily the whole history of a moved file. But sometimes changing packages etc make too much difference for git to see it's actually the same file so you loose it anyway. Cons including history: * double the history which make tools like ohloh indicate wrong informations * it's a lot easier to move without history WDYT ? Even if it was looking a bit weird to me at first I'm actually +1 to not move the history in this case. Eduard was proposing to include in the first commit of the new repository the id of the last commit containing the files (basically the id of the parent of the commit deleting the files) in the old repository so that it's easier to find it. I'm +1 for this. -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] JSON Velocity Tool

by Marius Dumitru Florea

Hi devs, Some time ago Jerome Velociter raised a vote [1] for adding a JSON Velocity Tool. The vote passed but the tool wasn't committed. I'd like to do it know (for 4.0M1) with two changes: 1. Use Jackson [2] instead of json-lib [3] because it has a more recent release 2. Add only the toJSON method for now because we can use $escapetool.javascript to accomplish the same result as toValueString Reply quickly if you are against it. Thanks, Marius [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/devs@xwiki.org/msg11395.html [2] http://jackson.codehaus.org/ [3] http://json-lib.sourceforge.net/
