[xwiki-devs] [ANN] XWiki Community Farm is now online

by Vincent Massol

Hi everyone, A few months ago we had discussed the possibility of offering a free community-managed farm for non-business critical projects. See http://tinyurl.com/69blgy In short the ideas are: 1) No support guarantee. All support done on the xwiki.org user mailing list by the community. 2) No stability guarantee. We would always install the latest Platform/ XE/XEM version on it and it would serve as a stability test for the xwiki development team. Obviously the community will always try to make it as stable as possible but that's not guaranteed. It's also possible that the farm will be down a few days now and then. We'll try to reduce this but no warranties. 3) There will be several members of the community who'll have admin access on the farm. 4) It will be open to anyone. However the target users will be technical people who can support themselves to some extent. We won't control that but it'll be mentioned on the registration page. In any case points 1) and 2) make it obvious that it shouldn't be used for any business-critical wiki. We're now announcing the myxwiki.org community farm at http://myxwiki.org Note that the machine was donated by the XPertNet company (http://xwiki.com ). Thanks XPertNet! :) Right now the following persons are admin on this farm: * ThomasMortagne * Marta * Sergiu * GuillaumeLerouge * amelentev (Artem) * Jerome Velociter * jvdrean (Jean-Vincent) * VincentMassol Please note that all these people are doing this in their free time and thus we're looking for more admins. If you're interested in helping us manage this farm (and we hope there'll be plenty of you interested) then please register a user and let me know and I'll make you admin. Here's what admins should do: * work on improving the community farm content in general * work on improving the way information is presented and navigation * watch the recent changes and undo graffitis where needed * create wikis for people who request them (there's a HTML form to fill) - we'll need to decide if we want to make that self service or not. Right now I suggest that people interested in getting a wiki there send an email to the xwiki users list explaining what they want to do with their new wiki and then one admin creates it for them. * watch out for security holes * suggest ideas to improve the farm What everyone can do: * edit and improve content for the non admins parts of the farm * spread the word, blog about it, etc Thanks -Vincent on behalf of the XWiki community

Re: [xwiki-devs] Requesting Commite rights for Niels Mayer

by Niels Mayer

Ludovic: I agree to commit only into the Curriki portions of the trunk. I will await separate permissions/voting to commit into the Xwiki platform portions, should the need arise in the future. For example, I would hope that some "refactoring" of curriki features becomes new core functionality in Xwiki. As I better understand the combined code-base (I just started at curriki) I will be in a better position to understand what such refactoring may entail. At that point, I would be happy to make some proposals and engage in discussion, in case such code reorganization proves mutually beneficial to xwiki and curriki. I am experienced with revision control systems (I was there when subversion<http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch01s02.html>was being planned, and shaped a number of the features based on collabnet's needs back in the early days of the company when we were developing svn and SourceCast, after our experiences building-in SSL-based 2-factor authentication for cvs&web for http://ipssources.net ). I also fess up to my mistakes when I do make them, e.g.: http://markmail.org/message/2nj5sipyi3qpib4x and also fess up to not having filed a bug report on aforementioned issue ... I admit that sometimes things I like to do with code make it live on the edge-condition, but I'm not one to break the build with it. Thank you for the vote! -- Niels Mayer, http://curriki.org Curriki: The Global Education and Learning Community Ludovic Dubost <ludovic(a)xwiki.org> wrote: +1 with the reminder that Curriki commit access is full commit access but without allowance to commit in the XWiki platform part Joshua Marks wrote: > Dear Devs, > > Niels, who has comment on the list before, is taking on development tasks > for Curriki.

Hi guys, I am trying to solve XWIKI-2361 and XWIKI-2362. First was easy but I am facing the following problem for the second issue: When trying to add a new user using the UI in an empty wiki, I am being redirected to /register/ and for that I need register right. Since by default I have only edit right, it redirects me to /login/ and since is an empty wiki.you realize it doesn't work. So, wouldn't it be logical to have register right for an empty wiki (since I have edit right)? If not, could anyone tell me a solution (I guess I will need to digg deep into the core for that and I am not sure I'm the best person to do that :P) Thanks in advance, Evelina

[xwiki-devs] Ann: xwikinaming plugin: access to jndi or spring objects.

by rssh

Good day, community. I'm glad to announce yet one xwiki plugin: xwikinaming. xwikinaming plugin can be interesting to integrators, which want call JNDI object or IOC-located spring beans from velocity or groovy scripts. So, xwikinaming provide easy way to resolve object form jndi and provide special chain jndi provider to resolve object at first in spring container, at second at external jndi. (note, that using spring IOC framework we can extend xwiki by functionality, which nothing know about xwiki itself) Source and documentation can be found on http://xwikinaming.gradsoft.ua -- Ruslan Shevchenko GradSoft. http://www.gradsoft.ua

[xwiki-devs] Problem with cookies set by internet explorer

by JJ-Nied

Hi.. I´ve started the standalone version of xwiki enterprise on a server, to share some information. I use Firefox and everythings allright, but some of the others use internet explorer and so they don´t stay logged in, when turning the explorer off (with rememberme function) .. I did some research on my Computer and found out that there is no username or password saved in the cookie set from IE, but it is set when I log in to www.xwiki.org (there everything works fine).. So there must be a problem with the configuration of my XWiki.. But I just don´t find anything and there is nothing in the log-file.. Has anyone an idea what I can try or knows what is diffrent in the configuration of the www.xwiki.org?? p.s. the cookie set looks like: style null {domain} 1088 2052098176 30002969 32056976 29929544 * and nothing else..

[xwiki-devs] $request.getParameter()

by Kamna Jain

Hello All, I have come across this many times and am not sure what I am doing wrong here. I have a simple HTML form on a page and there is one <select> type input. If I try to get the selected value of this field on the same page, using #set($something = $request.getParameter("name of the filed")) , it does not do anything but if I do the same in a .vm file, it gets the value fine. What am I doign wrong, in the process of getting the value on the same page using velocity. Thanks

[xwiki-devs] Export/Import batch mode

by Lorenzo Manzoni

I would like to execute an export of all/some of the wiki pages in a batch mode (ex. with a script and a java program). In the same way I would like to execute an import. Is there an easy way to do this? Looking forward in the xwiki sources I found two classes that seem to do what I want: * com.xpn.xwiki.tool.backup.ExporterMain * com.xpn.xwiki.tool.backup.ImporterMain Both classes are in the maven plugin called xwiki-packager-plugin. Is there any documentation that explain how use that plugin? thanks, Lorenzo

[xwiki-devs] Re lating classes in xwiki

by Sachin Mittal

Hi, Using xwiki class editor we can create classes and package them as application. Classes can also have an entity relationship among themselves. I have few question on how can we relate classes in xwiki. Let me start by posting a simple example: Say our application has two classes Product and Review. Relationship between them is a product can have multiple reviews. Now I can relate these classes in following way: 1. Create a product document and add the product object to it. All the reviews for that product are also added to that product document as review objects. Thus I have grouped reviews to a product. 2. Create a product document and add the product object to it. For each review for that product created a review document and add review object to that review document and make review document child of product document. Thus I have arranged reviews as children of a product. 3. In the review class add a db list field, which refers to objects of product class. While creating a review object choose the right product name from the list. Thus reviews are associated to a product. Thus you can see that in each of the three ways I have related two classes. Only difference is different ways of storing them. (again presentation still can be same and I am here interested in optimal storage strategy only). So I would like to know which of the above three is the best way of relating classes. Are there any more ways of achieving the relationship I talked initially? I would like to know from people who have been developing complex applications involving relationship between several xwiki classes as what would be the best way of arranging the use case just described.

[xwiki-devs] AttachmentStore - my filesystem based implementation

by Michael Zach (TNXLabs)

Hello all, I have been looking for a way to store attachments (the binary 'content' data only) as regular files on the servers filesystem. I already read through the archives and found out so far that this is possible via writing my own implementation of the com.xpn.xwiki.store.XWikiAttachmentStoreInterface and then set have them used via settings in xwiki.cfg. (see this thread in the markmail archives: http://markmail.org/message/zyd2tpfj2x45hyxt ) What I do is just taking out the XWikiAttachmentContent content property's byte[], stream it into a file and replace the property value with the path to this file. so I need no changes to the hibernate mappings etc. ... and when reading it in, doing a file read accordingly ... So I store everything as usual with Hibernate, just the pure content is stored as file (with an unique id embedded in the filename) Q1) ... any better idea? (its working fine so far ;o) Q2) I am looking for a way to set the store implementations on a per-space basis. Or: How can the store implementation see to which space the attachment's parent page belongs and read in any config (string) for this space? Q3) Any other Interfaces I should provide a filesystem based implemention for? So far it seems I dont need to make any changes to the Recyclebin and Versioning store implementations. Q4) Is there a way to turn off caching for attachments only? I turned off caching totally with xwiki.store.cache=0 xwiki.store.cache.capacity=0 and this is a performance nightmare. But I need to turn off only the caching of attachments. Is this possible?

[xwiki-devs] About the new SkinExtensions plugin

by Jean-Vincent Drean

Hi XWikiers There are open question about the new skinx plugin, I'd like to discuss about the first one : http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/SkinExtensions#HUsage "Should $xwiki.jsx.useFile("filename.js") work for files located on the disk? This allows the same pull process to be used with files located in the skin, without requiring SX documents and objects. I'd say yes. Then, what should the URL look like? /xwiki/bin/jsx/skins/albatross/somestyle.css is OK?" We definitely need this to be able to load some libraries condditionaly, for example usersandgroups.js or lightbox.js. I don't see the need for some special URLs, would it be a problem that useFile() adds the result of a xwiki.getSkinFile() to the header ? Thanks, -- Jean-Vincent Drean

Please guide: #set($assetDoc = $xwiki.getDocument($asset)) #set($tagObject=$assetDoc.getObject("XWiki.TagClass")) #set($tags = $tagObject.get("tags")) #set($tagList = $tags.split("|")) or #set($tagList = $tags.toString().split("|")) (even getName() does not work) #foreach ($tag in $tagList) #if($tag == "XYZ") ( #if($tag.equals("XYZ")) also does not work but when I had only one tag in the tags field, I just used : #if( $tagObject.get("tags") == "XYZ") and this worked.... Please help - one tag per object or multiple tags per object? Thanks

[xwiki-devs] Reviewing XE 1.4 roadmap vs what we did

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I'd like that we review our objectives for 1.4 vs what we've done: * Bug fixes o Go from 240 in JIRA for Core down to 180 on XE 1.4 release date Right now the bug count is at 227. Even though it's lower than 240 it's still a far cry from the 180 target... * Better performance o Run XE with a profiler and find bottlenecks Not done o Reduce number of database calls Not done o Improved page loading (JV) Not done o Make Stats usable on xwiki.org (ThomasM) Done! * More automated tests o More selenium tests We can consider this done although we always need more. We need to continue adding and even spending some time just adding tests even if we don't have code at all. o Add tests on Tomcat 6.x as part of the CI build Not done o Add tests on Windows and with IE6 and IE7 as part of the CI build Not done Conclusions: ========== * We're not too good. I think this is principally due to me, since I focused on the new rendering component and have delegated XE day to day management/coaching to JV. Thus JV has not been able to work on the performance improvements as planned. We really need to get that going in 1.5 now. * We have 1 more week to fix as many bugs as possible. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
