Hello devs, I've been working on the support of pretty thumbnails picture for XE (other mail coming on later). I've had the need for a couple of new bridge APIs, namely in DocumentAccessBridge : int getObjectNumber(DocumentReference documentReference, DocumentReference classReference, String parameterName, String valueToMatch); to get the number of the first object that has a property with a certain value in a document. Sort of similar to com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document#getObject(String, String, String) Object getProperty(DocumentReference documentReference, DocumentReference classReference, int objectNumber, String propertyName); to get the value of a property for the Nth object of a class in a document (to be used in combination with the previous one for example). and finally : Object getProperty(ObjectReference objectReference, String propertyName); Object getProperty(ObjectPropertyReference objectPropertyReference); two new APIs to get properties value based both on object reference + property name, or just property reference Let me know what you think My +1 -- Jerome Velociter Winesquare http://www.winesquare.net/

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] New model script service APIs

by Jerome Velociter

Hello, For my work on the pretty thumbnails I also had the need to add some service API to the Model module script service. Basically the same kind of APIs that did already exist to resolve documents and attachments from a string representation, but this time to resolve object references and object properties references. Here they are : public ObjectReference resolveObject(String stringRepresentation) public ObjectReference resolveObject(String stringRepresentation, String hint, Object... parameters) public ObjectPropertyReference resolveObjectProperty(String stringRepresentation) public ObjectPropertyReference resolveObjectProperty(String stringRepresentation, String hint, Object... parameters) WDYT ?

[xwiki-devs] About the merits of private static functions.

by Caleb James DeLisle

I have found that I like static private functions because they allow me to make promises about my code, making it more self explanatory and I was interested in opinions from others about it. It's not something I would want to force on other people but I would use it myself if people don't think it's too messy. Reasoning: A private method which does not touch any state of the is easy to review, it has no side channels to modify or access information so: #1 with the same inputs it will always give the same output. #2 it will not affect the world around it aside from it's inputs and output (no surprise side effects). By declaring the private method static, you make that promise and the compiler will hold you to it. As a reviewer I can let my guard down when looking at the code because it doesn't affect object state so it can't be the source of some types of bugs. The code is sandboxed so to speak. These assumptions do not hold true if static variables are used but I believe those should never be used unless absolutely necessary and when they are, code should be reviewed more closely anyway. Example: https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-rendering/blob/master/xwiki-rendering-transf… If I were writing this now, I would be tempted to make these into static functions: private Block convertToDeepTree(Block sourceTree, String iconName) private void mergeTree(Block targetTree, Block sourceTree) private int indexOf(List<Block> targetBlocks, Block block) private boolean blockEquals(Block target, Block source) Anyone have any thoughts on this pattern?

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Remove unnecessary javadoc for overriding methods

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, I've just realized that using @override is enough to generate a proper javadoc copied from the overriden method and that checkstyle doesn't complain either. Basically instead of writing: /** * {@inheritDoc} * * @see org.xwiki.logging.LoggerManager#popLogListener() */ @Override public EventListener popLogListener() We can simply write: @Override public EventListener popLogListener() Advantages: 1) Less text to type and smaller class files 2) Less duplicated text I thus propose to use this from now and to progressively remove unnecessary javadoc in our legacy code. BTW this is also explained in the javadoc tool: See section "Automatic Reuse of Method Comments" in http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.3/docs/tooldocs/win32/javadoc.html WDYT? Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] New JIRA module in platform

by Vincent Massol

Guys, I should have sent this mail before pushing my changes but here it's just after the fact… Basically I've replaced xwiki-platform-swizzle with xwiki-platform-jira The details are on http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6879 I hope it's fine. My next step is to make it work with the extension manager (thomas M is on it) and to document it on extensions.xwiki.org. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [proposal] Introduce a pointer class.

by Caleb James DeLisle

In order to fix a problem with the cache, I would like to add a pointer type to the storage api. The problem with the cache is there are multiple names which, when asked of the persistent store, return the same document. There is no effective way to know what all names which will return that document. When a document is modified, it is removed from the cache but the only version removed is it's "real" name. All of the other names for it linger in the cache eating up memory and threatening to provide someone stale data. Instead of caching the document, we could cache a pointer to the document and when it became stale, the pointer could be set to null and then any other name under which that document was cached would look up a null pointer and the cache logic could remove it. I would like to add it to xwiki-platform-store-api module and it will look roughly like this: package org.xwiki.store; public final class Pointer<T> { /** The thing which this pointer points to. */ public T target; } WDYT?

[xwiki-devs] How to get multiple values from object property.

by Karel Gardas

Hello, I have a XWiki object of a class where one property is defined as a list. During the page creation of this object (by using appropriate template provider) I'm setting several values from the list of possible values for the property. My problem is that although I've set several values I still get just one value when I look at the object properties in appropriate sheet class. E.g. I do have BookClass which besides other props defines property `kind' where kind might have `fantasy', `drama', or `novel' value. It also might have several values -- well, not good example but I hope this illustrates what I'm doing here. And now when I create new page as a book I set several kinds (for example fantasy & drama) then when I see the page I see only fantasy as the book kind. I'm using XWiki 3.1 snapshot as of May 27 2011. My question is it a known bug, am I doing anything wrong or was it already fixed (in case of bug)? Thanks a lot! Karel

[xwiki-devs] about login and logout using XWiki REST API

by Jun Han

Dear all, I am on the way of replacing the xmlrpc implementation of RemoteXWikiDataStorage implements IDataStorage {}. One question is about how to implement login and logout functionality via REST API. From REST API document, users can be authenticated via something like: 1. XWiki session 2. HTTP Basic Auth. HTTP basic auth can be implemented via adding HTTP header to the HTTP request, then XEclipse can display Xwiki Resources by parsing the response. Therefore, do we need to implement login and logout methods? Best regards Jun Han

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Adding Ivy JAR to WEB-INF/lib

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, I'd like to propose adding the Ivy JAR to our Platform/XE distributions. The reason is simple: it makes it possible to use the Groovy @Grab directive which makes it real easy to extend XWiki using Groovy script. Several advantages: - not having to manually hunt for transitive dependencies - not needing to stop/restart XWiki (since this is what you need to do if your groovy script needs to use some third party jars). Here's a good usage example: {{cache}} {{groovy}} @Grab(group='org.codehaus.groovy.modules.http-builder', module='http-builder', version='0.5.1') import groovyx.net.http.RESTClient github = new RESTClient( 'http://github.com/api/v2/json/' ) println "|=Project|=Description|=Use Wiki?|=Use Issues?" def response = github.get( path : 'repos/show/xwiki' ) response.data.repositories.each() { repo -> println "|[[${repo.name}>>http://github.com/xwiki/${repo.name}]]|${repo.description}|${repo.has_wiki}…" } {{/groovy}} {{/cache}} If you try to do this without the grab directive you'll find yourself hunting down more than 30 jars which you'll need to put in your WEB-INF/lib directory, whereas here it's a single line directive. It's really powerful. Here's my +1 to make it easy for users to use Groovy scripts. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] JIRA Components for XWiki Platform

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, It seems someone has been adding some components in the XWiki Platform jira project (such as "PDF Export", "Plugin API", "HTML Export", etc). I thought we had agreed that the components listed there would only be modules. This is how Thomas and myself configured it. Unfortunately JIRA doesn't have an activity stream to know who did this :) Could that person come up so that we have a discussion? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Volunteers needed to upgrade xwiki.org and myxwiki.org

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, We need some volunteer to: - upgrade xwiki.org from 2.6 to 3.1 (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/Migrations) - upgrade myxwiki.org from 3.1 to 3.2M2 (to test the 3.2 upcoming release) (http://myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/Upgrading) I have done it a lot recently and I think it's fair that it's not always the same person who do it. So is there someone who has never done it or hasn't done it in a while who's willing to do one of these? (Note that I can be available to do it with this person to explain things or be there in case of an issue) Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Release XWiki Commons and XWiki Rendering to Maven Central

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, It would be good to release XWiki Rendering to Maven Central since it's a standalone library and we've already had requests from people who are using it but cannot release their own artifacts to Maven Central since XWiki Rendering JARs are not there. I'm thus proposing to fix this by release XWiki Commons and XWiki Rendering to Maven Central. Advantages: - technical marketing - makes it easier to external people to use XWiki rendering (no need to modify their settings.xml and add the XWiki remote repo) - makes it possible for people depending on XWiki Commons/Rendering to publish their own artifacts to Central Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] XWIKI-6790: Add 'copy' and 'rename' values for the 'method' parameter

by Jun Han

Dear all, I am working on extend the putPage method to add 'copy' and 'rename'. uriInfo is used to get the additional query parameter, e.g., (1) ?copyFrom=aWiki:aSpace.oldPage (2) ?moveFrom=aWiki:aSpace.oldPage Following Eduard and Sergiu's emails, XWiki.copyDocument(sourceDocumentReference, targetDocumentReference, context) and XWikiDocument.rename(newDocumentReference, context) are utilized to solve (1) and (2), respectively. Now I want to confirm the behaviors of copyFrom and moveFrom. a) If the new page resource does not exist, 1. copyFrom method will return the newly created resource, and "copied from xxx" is mentioned in the page history of new page. The source page remains untouched. 2. moveFrom method will also return the newly created page and source page is deleted. b) If the new page resource already exists, both copyFrom and moveFrom will do nothing. The existing page and source page remain untouched. Are these the desired functions for copyFrom and moveFrom methods? Best regards Jun Han

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Build Day - Next: 25th August 2011

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Since we're having a hard time stabilizing our build and since there are always stuff to do to improve our build I'm proposing to introduce the notion of Build Day as an experiment. The idea is that on this day all developers will focus only on improving the Build. More specifically: - working on making all tests pass - fix flickering tests if any And if there are no more tests issues then the following items can be considered too (as a secondary objective only since the main goal is fixing the build): - upgrade versions of maven plugins - make the build run faster - look for TODO in the pom.xml and fix them if possible - etc WDYT? What about doing our first Build Day on Thursday the 25th of Augsut 2011? Thanks -Vincent PS: This is NOT replacing the Build Manager role. It's an addition to it.

[xwiki-devs] [Contrib] PlantUML Macro

by Maxime Sinclair

Hi, I propose to host the PlantUML Macro extension (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/PlantUML+Macro) source files on the XWiki Contrib GitHub repository. Althought this macro is only groovy code included in wiki pages, it will be easier to keep track of the different changes. In my opinion, the other hosting tools (jira, continuous build) are not needed. Is there an existing contrib project of the same kind (ie wiki macro) that I can use as a template to build the directory tree ? Thanks for your answer. Maxime Sinclair

[xwiki-devs] The plan of GSoC project "Auto-completion in content editors" (8.15 - 8.21)

by 许凌志(Jamesxu)

Hi, Last week I have done following things: 1.Implemented the relative references for link generation 2. implemented the default suggestions for sub-trigger "attach:", "." and "@" The default suggestion for trigger "attach:" is the attachments that belongs to recently modified pages. The default suggestion for trigger "." has two different situations: 1). when "." is after "attach:" the default suggestion is the attachments that belongs to recently modifed pages under the specific space 2). when "." is not after "attach:" the default suggestion is the wiki pages under specific space. The default suggestion for trigger "@" is the attachments that belongs to the specific wikipage. 3. Re-design the interface of the suggestion box according to Marius' suggestions, and it attracts some advantages from the suggestion box of confluence wiki. Till now the Major functions for link suggestion of wiki editor has been done, here is the video of the link suggestion for wiki editor. Please see the demo video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_be-3oqgzE In next week, I will do the following things； 1. Design the image suggestion functions and discuss with mentors. 2. Test the link suggestion functions in IE, chrome, to consider the compatibility of the functions. 3. Refine the functions accroding to the review of mentors. -- Best wishes, 许凌志(Jame Xu) MOE KLINNS Lab and SKLMS Lab, Xi'an Jiaotong University Department of Computer Science and Technology, Xi’an Jiaotong University
