[xwiki-devs] [Brainstorming] Failing build when deprecated APIs are used in scripts?

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, I'd like to discuss about introducing a checker in the tests to fail the test if there's a warning message about a deprecated APIs being used in scripts. For example: ``` 23:59:28.308 [main] INFO org.xwiki.test.ui.TestDebugger - GroupIT-addUserAndSubgroupToGroup started 23:59:32.593 [Exec Stream Pumper] ERROR o.x.t.i.XWikiLogOutputStream - 2019-03-28 23:59:32,593 [http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?xpage=getgroups…] WARN o.x.v.i.DefaultVelocityEngine - Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.rightsmanager.RightsManagerPluginApi.countAllMembersNamesForGroup] in 21:/templates/getgroups.vm@62,37 23:59:35.824 [Exec Stream Pumper] ERROR o.x.t.i.XWikiLogOutputStream - 2019-03-28 23:59:35,824 [http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?xpage=getgroups…] WARN o.x.v.i.DefaultVelocityEngine - Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.rightsmanager.RightsManagerPluginApi.countAllMembersNamesForGroup] in 18:/templates/getgroups.vm@62,37 23:59:41.349 [Exec Stream Pumper] ERROR o.x.t.i.XWikiLogOutputStream - 2019-03-28 23:59:41,348 [http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?xpage=getgroups…] WARN o.x.v.i.DefaultVelocityEngine - Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.rightsmanager.RightsManagerPluginApi.countAllMembersNamesForGroup] in 21:/templates/getgroups.vm@62,37 23:59:58.503 [main] INFO org.xwiki.test.ui.TestDebugger - GroupIT-addUserAndSubgroupToGroup passed ``` Rationale: * This adds warnings in the xwiki logs when users navigate to those pages which isn’t nice. * It also helps reducing the number of deprecated methods we use (I have the feeling this is not reducing) and helps us move towards being able to move the deprecated code to legacy. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Improve our Test Coverage strategy (TAKE 3)

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, I remember that we talked about this new global test coverage strategy but I don’t recall where and I couldn’t find an email about it. So I’m reposting the strategy that I’ve just finished implementing. * Every day the Clover job runs: https://ci.xwiki.org/view/Tools/job/Clover/ * It generates a global coverage report and compares it automatically with the first report generated for the current version * If the global coverage is reduced, then: ** an email is sent to notifications(a)xwiki.org containing the report ** the job is marked as FAILING ** A failing badge is added to the job history ** A red large text is added to the job page and a link to the report is sent * Developers MUST fix the global coverage before we can release a version, so the it means the global coverage must not be reduced during a version. * The RM should check the CI (already part of his chores) and the “Recommended Failing” view on ci.xwiki.org must not have errors or failures (so that includes pitest job and clover job). Any comments? Does that seem ok to you? If you confirm it’s ok, I’ll document it on https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Testing/TestCoverage/ Note: A few minutes ago an email has been sent since the global coverage has been reduced compared to yesterday. See http://maven.xwiki.org/site/clover/20190321/XWikiReport-20190320-0128-20190… So we need to fix it now. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [WCAG] Reference validator

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi devs, I've started to analyze the 971 tests failing on webstandards related to the WCAG validation. I plan to create issues in order for us to fix the errors. The problem I have is that we were validating against the Dutch Guidelines validation tool (previously http://www.webrichtlijnen.nl/english/testing) but this tool has been discontinued by the Dutch Ministry in July 2017, see https://www.digitoegankelijk.nl/onderwerpen/testen/nieuws/2017/04/25/gewoon… The difference between the W3C WCAG rules (https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/) and the Dutch Guidelines was that the latest were more strict. Also WCAG specification advanced to version 2.1 in Jun 2018. Since I don't have much experience in the way we've implemented the validator, I'm asking if anyone has any idea of another validator we could replace this one with (in case we want this). Else, I will try to investigate and find a replacement for a new reference validator. Currently the plan is to fix our code to match the current definitions and in cases that are not covered by W3C WCAG and where we want to add "exceptions" I test also online on: * https://ckeditor.com/ckeditor-4/accessibility-checker/ and * http://wave.webaim.org/ Let me know if you have any objections to the 2 tools mentioned above. I've started the investigation at: https://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/WCAG10x we can discuss each error and "exception" on the individual issues. Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] [Feedback] Installation choices

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi Devs, I'm curious what you think about this direction for the Download / Install page on xwiki.org: Iteration 1 https://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Install/LDJEasierInstallationFl… Changes: * Download renamed to Install * Form at the beginning to select the version, OS, type and package * Depending on the user selection, there is an option to Download the package, or you just get Installation steps (personalized for each option selected). I've iterated currently just for the ZIP package (for Demo+Mac), but imagine something similar for all the other packages. What do you think? Should I continue in this direction? Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] asking for help, issues for a team

by Jeremi Kádár

Dear XWiki developers, I and my friends learn Computer Science at the University Of Szeged. One of our obligatory task in this semester to participate in an open source project. We decide to choose a project so our team wouldn't be randomized and we don't have to risk that we'll be put together with students who too lazy to work. I've found XWiki and seen that this would be an excellent choice since it's well known and has some history behind itself and the project itself is really interesting too. We've read the different guides about how to participate, registrated to jira, github, devmails... Our problem is that we couldn't find an issue / work item with the following criterias: - no one's working on it || not assigned ( - it's beginner friendly, not have to know *everything *from A to B about the project code ) Each of us have to take an issued or if there is 2-3 issue big enough, then on each of the issues 2-3 members of our team would work on. We have to showcase the first milestone next week, until then we should get to known to the project and get issues / task. We would be grateful if you could help us! Thanking you in advance... Sorry for the language mistakes. I'm writing this letter down in Hungarian as well, just in case: Kedves XWiki fejlesztők, Én és a barátaim Programtervező Informatikára járunk a Szegedi Tudományegyetemen. Ebben a félévben az egyik kötelező feladatunk részt venni egy nyílt forráskódú projekt fejlesztésében. Úgy döntöttünk, hogy mi választjuk a projektet, mivel így a csapatunk nem véletlenszerű lesz kiválasztva és nem fogunk olyanokkal összekerülni, akik nem akarnak dolgozni. Rátaláltam az XWiki-re és tökéletes választásnak találtam, mivel ismert, van háttere és maga a projekt is nagyon érdekes. Elolvastuk a különböző leírásokat és regisztráltunk githubra, jirara, fejlesztői e-mailekre. Az a problémánk, hogy nem találtunk issuet / feladatot az alábbi feltételek mellett: - senki sem dolgozik rajta || senkin sincs még rajta ( - kezdőknek is jó, nem kell *mindent* tudni hozzá a projekt forráskódjáról ) Mindannyiunknak kell felvennie egy issuet vagy ha van 2-3 nagyobb issue, akkor mindegyiken a csapatból 2-3 ember is dolgozhatna. Az első mérföldkövet jövő héten kell bemutatnunk, addig meg kell ismernünk a projektet és szereznünk kell feladatot is. Hálásak lennénk, ha tudnátok segíteni! Előre is köszönöm...

You should not try to directly send mails to the mentors and instead communicate using general communication channels in which mentors will answer you.

[xwiki-devs] Status on Docker + CI + Clover - Outstanding tasks

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, I wanted to keep up to date on the list of stuff that we still need to do in the domain of Docker, CI & Clover, specifically on the domains I’ve been working on. All the items below are items I need to work on (but any help is welcome of course). 1) Clover pipeline job to modify to add docker-based functional tests: right now the global TPC is going to decrease because of MenuIT and MailIT. This needs to be fixed ASAP before we convert too many tests. 2) Also fix Clover pipeline job in general which hasn’t passed since the 22nd of October 3) Execute Docker-based tests in main pipeline job for the default config as otherwise we might have the platform job succeeding but it’ll miss several functional tests! Option 1: execute Browser outside of docker as option, Option 2: add more docker-based agents. For the moment, we might be able to run the docker tests on agent4. 4) Screenshot attachment on UI test failures to fix in pipeline job 5) Flicker recognition on tests to fix in pipeline job 6) Fix the ClosedChannelExcption/InterruptedException in our CI 7) Research running Jenkins agents in docker images and make our Docker test work (docker on docker). Once this works, set up 2 or 2 agents on a4. And then move all other agents to this. 8) Still need to apply the Clover strategy we agreed on (global TPC needs to not go down during releases). 9) Find strategy to move Docker image creation in platform build Let me know if you have questions. Thanks -Vincent PS: I didn’t list fixing tests (such and flicker fixing or WCAG test fixing) since this not infra and I wanted to limit this list to infra.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Introduce a new table BackLinks for solving issues on wiki farms

by Simon Urli

Hi everyone, we currently have some issues when performing refactoring operations on pages that are linked from another wiki page. See: https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-8346 The current implementation of the links is to keep the local name of the current document and to create a reference containing the name of the wiki for the target document, only if it's a document from another wiki. So basically if I have a wiki:A pointing to subwiki:B, I will get a link stored in DB of "wiki", containing: - fullName: A - link: subwiki:B This forces us to currently iterate over all wikis, when we refactor a page to edit all the links on the farm. That's why we currently have an option which is disabled by default: i.e. we don't update backlinks on a farm by default. In order to allow such operation with less performance issues, I propose to add a new table dedicated to store the backlinks: basically this table would store the reversed information as Links, in the target DB. If I take back my example, the table backlinks of "wiki" would be empty, and I get in the table backlinks of "subwiki", the following information: - fullName: B - backlink: wiki:A Then we could load all backlinks of a document just by looking in one table. The impact on performance would be the necessity to update links in two tables when performing a save, but we can mitigate this by first loading the links so we only update what needs to be (currently we delete and recreate all links, each time...). IMO it would really ease the understanding of links and backlinks, solve the issues on farm and help us to maintain this code. + it doesn't break any legacy since we keep the existing Link table. WDYT? Simon -- Simon Urli Software Engineer at XWiki SAS simon.urli(a)xwiki.com More about us at http://www.xwiki.com

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Changes to remove Dashboard, Crypto, Macros, Rendering entries in the Navigation Panels

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, On a standard XS, if you show hidden document you see some entries that you shouldn’t see and that should be hidden. See screenshot. Another problem is that clicking on the Dashboard, Crypto, Macros, Rendering links lead to non-existing pages. I’m this proposing to: 1) Introduce a xwiki-platform-crypto-ui modules with a single Crypto.Webhome page and some one liner explaining what this space is about. 2) Introduce a xwiki-platform-rendering-wikimacro-ui module with a single Macros.WebHome page and some one liner explaining what this space is about. It makes sense to have it under xwiki-platform-rendering-wikimacro since it’s about providing a location for wiki macros. 3) Add a Rendering.WebHome page inside xwiki-platform-rendering-ui to explain what this space is about. The module is there and it’s just missing this page. BTW an alternative is to modify the Navigation panel algorithm to exclude spaces not having a top level WebHome page too. @Marius: any reason we’re not doing this already? By default the Navigation panel hides top level pages that are not meant to be modified so this will remove Crypto, Macros & Rendering. 4) For Dashboard it’s a bit more complex. Ideally we would refactor Dashboard.WebHome to include a new Dashboard.WikiDashboard page that would contain the current content of Dashboard.WebHome. Thus the home page would appear as not modifiable and not appear in the Navigation panel. However, since users can have modified Dashboard.WebHome, this would cause an upgrade merge conflict. Thus, instead, I propose to do what we do for the Sandbox page and instead add Dashboard to the Exclude list of the Navigation panel. WDYT? Note: I’m going to do 4) right now since it’s a no-brainer. Longer term ========= This is *not* part of the proposal but we need to start a thread again about this and start doing something about it: Right now we have apps/extensions creating pages under the top level root. I don’t think this is good at all and we should reserve the top level root for user content. It would be much better to have a place under “XWiki”, such as “XWiki.Extensions.<extension name>.<sub spaces>.<pages>” where each extension could put its content. We already started discussing this. The past thread(s) needs to be unearthed and the discussion resumed. Thanks -Vincent
