[xwiki-devs] Macro execution at the page save time.

by Karel Gardas

Hello, I'm working on semantic extension for XWiki[1][2] and currently on performance tunning to be ready for scaling up. The problem with current implementation is that it always modifies semantics DB on all page views. E.g. when I do have a page with {{semProp value="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/title::The Hobbit"/}} to define property 'title' to value 'The Hobbit', this macro basically saves this knowledge to the DB everytime the page is viewed which is obvious performance killer. Of course there is a possibility to optimize this call to first check if the property is already defined and if not, do nothing, but it's still not the best. What I think I'd like to do is to kind of check if the pages is saved or viewed and based on this semProp will do its job (during page save) or will do nothing (during page view). Now, my question is if something like that is possible since I've not found any hints about it so far. Thanks!

[xwiki-devs] Out of memory errors (scalability of xwiki).

by Karel Gardas

Folks, I'm testing kind of scalability of XWiki by simple benchmark which creates N pages in a loop (one page at a time, it's not parallel run!) and then when this loop finishes, it again in another loop gets all the pages from the server (again serially, one page at the time). For page creation we're using REST API, for getting the pages we're using common browseable URL (/xwiki/bin/view/...). Now the problem is that if I try to attempt creation of 100k pages, then I hit Java's out of memory errors and server is unresponsive from that time. I've tested this on: - xwiki-jetty-hsql-6.0.0 - xwiki-jetty-hsql-6.0.1 - xwiki-tomcat7-pgsql -- debian xwiki packages running on top of debian 7.5 Of course I know the way how to increase Java's memory space/heap space. The problem is that this will not help here. Simply if I do so and then create 100 millions of pages on one run I will still get to the same issue just it'll take a lot longer. I've googled a bit for memoryleaks issues on Java and found an interesting recommendation to use parallel GC. So I've changed start_xwiki.sh to include -XX:+UseParallelGC in XWIKI_OPTS Anyway, the situation is still looking suspiciously. I've connected JConsole to the xwiki java process and overall view looks: https://app.box.com/s/udndu96pl2fvuz3igvor this is whole run overview, but perhaps even more clear is it on last 2 hours view which is here: https://app.box.com/s/deuix33fzejra4uur941 Sidenote this all is from debugging xwiki-jetty-hsql-6.0.1 distro. Now, what worries me a lot is this bottom cap which is growing. You can see that clearly in Heap Memory Usage from 15:15. In CPU usage you can also see that around the same time the CPU consumption went up from ~15% to ~45% When I switch to Memory Tab in JConsole and click several times on "Perform GC" button, the bottom cap is still there and I cannot get lower in memory usage. With this going on I can also see server failing after some time on OOM error. Any help with this is highly appreciated here. Thanks! Karel

[xwiki-devs] [proposal] Install Realtime WikiText editor extension on myxwiki.org

by Caleb James DeLisle

Hi, I'd like to propose installing the Realtime WikiText extension on myxwiki.org. It has already been installed on webviewers.org and in XWiki SAS internal wiki. I would like to broaden the scope to myxwiki.org and then xwiki.org. Myxwiki.org is a special scenario because it contains many subwikis, some of which have fairly radical custom skins. However after some thought I decided we should install the extension globally anyway because it will allow us to gather the widest range of feedback about it's behavior. I propose to write a document explaining how it works, where to report issues and how to disable it, install the extensions globally on myxwiki.org, then place a banner on myxwiki.org for 1 week which invites administrators to the document. WDYT? Caleb

[xwiki-devs] onEvent does not save the document

by walid yaich

Hi community, I have a listener on DocumentUpdateEvent List<Event> getEvents() { return Arrays.asList(new DocumentUpdateEvent()) } void onEvent(Event event, Object source, Object data) { println "onEvent start !" def obj = source.getObject("Revision.RevisionClass") source.setComment('this is listener comment') println obj.getName() obj.set("approvedRev", '1.1', data) println "onEvent end" } I'm sure onEvent is executed but the document is not saved. The same problem with DocumentUpdatedEvent when i added saveDocument, i got stackoverflow. I tried on XWIKI 4.4 and 5.4.5, with no success Thanks in advance :)

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Having the AppBar panel in the left side column by default.

by Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau

Hi, In Flamingo, we have created the concept of Application Bar, that we have implemented as a Panel: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-10254 I propose to put the Application Bar by default on the left column. Since we do not have a configuration system at the skin level, it would be present for both Colibri & Flamingo. I think it is not a problem because I have managed to make it look good for both (except for the size of the icons) : http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/attachment/27707/appbar.png WDYT? Thanks, Guillaume

[xwiki-devs] [Brainstorm] Application Descriptor

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi, There have been some recently discussions about Application Descriptors and their utility when generating content for XWiki features, like taking the icon field from the descriptor in order to generate the application panel for the AppBar, etc. I've gathered some use cases / needs on this page: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/ApplicationDescriptor It would be nice to brainstorm a bit if we consider the 'Application Descriptor' concept to be needed in our future, especially since the Flamingo Skin is focused heavily on the Applications concept. I would be curious why this concept has been deprecated (Application Manager): * maybe the fields the descriptor contained are deprecated by the Extension Manager; * maybe a bad usage; * etc. And also very important is what fields you consider should be needed in the Application Descriptor and ways to make it easily extensible. Having an Application Descriptor would facilitate having an index containing all applications, called Application Index, in order to help the user navigate and manage the installed applications outside the Extension Manager (which is found in Administration). Thanks, Caty & Louis-Marie

Hello XWiki Dev, How are you? In my company, we have created an XWiki extension that allows use the sigmajs framework (sigmajs.org) and we would like to share the extension with the community. Our idea is create a github project and make it available through extension manager to the users however we don’t have idea how to create the github and after that link that with the extension, how can we do that?

[xwiki-devs] [XWiki Day] PR Review Day #1

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, We’re Thursday and Thursday is XWiki Day! :) I’d like to propose that we do our first PR Review Day today. The goal is to review all the JIRA issues that have patches or PRs in them (http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&mode=hide&jqlQu…) and: - apply them if possible - comment on them if something is missing/not right - set the proper “Pull Request Status” field value: Awaiting Committer Feedback, Awaiting Contributor Feedback, None - ping the contributor if we’ve already asked for some info and we didn’t get it - if some PR are almost good then spend the extra time to finish them to allow applying the PR Process: - when you start reviewing a PR please assign it to yourself to set the lock on it - when you’re done, if the issue wasn’t closed, then unassign yourself Please record: - how many issues you’ve reviewed - how many PRs you’ve applied WDYT? Let’s do it! :) Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Cleaning our POM deps by explicitly listing used dependencies?

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Running mvn dependency:dependency-analyze produces interesting results. For example: [INFO] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [INFO] Building XWiki Commons - Properties 3.2-SNAPSHOT [INFO] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- … [INFO] --- maven-dependency-plugin:2.3:analyze (default-cli) @ xwiki-commons-properties --- [WARNING] Used undeclared dependencies found: [WARNING] org.slf4j:slf4j-api:jar:1.6.1:compile [WARNING] javax.inject:javax.inject:jar:1:compile [WARNING] Unused declared dependencies found: [WARNING] org.xwiki.commons:xwiki-commons-component-api:jar:3.2-SNAPSHOT:compile [WARNING] org.xwiki.commons:xwiki-commons-test:jar:3.2-SNAPSHOT:test [WARNING] org.hibernate:hibernate-validator:jar:4.2.0.Final:test [WARNING] org.hamcrest:hamcrest-core:jar:1.1:test [WARNING] org.jmock:jmock:jar:2.5.1:test The question is (for this module but more generally for all others): * Should we add slf4j and javax.inject reps in the pom.xml for this module? (for ex today slf4j and javax.inject are found in the component-api dep) I think we should, wdyt? Note that the "Unused declared dependencies found:" doesn't always generate correct results as is the case here. This is mostly because it's a static byte code check so any dep used at runtime will be considered unused. See http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnex-book/reference/optimizing-sect-dependen… Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Users are in need of a reusable Tree view of pages, what can we do?

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, I’ve noticed a recurring trend from our users: a lot of them seem to wish to display Tree views/navigation view of their wiki pages either in page content or in a panel. When they go to e.x.o, there’s a lot of extensions listed (showing that other users had this need previously) but none really work well: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/WebHome#|t=extensions&… We do have a tree view in AllDocs but it’s not perfect and it’s not easily reusable. Thus I believe we need to find an official solution to this tree view issue. The easiest solution could be to create a wiki macro based on our current tree view so that it can be reused in wiki pages and more importantly in a panel. Having a “spaces” parameter to restrict the list of spaces to display would be nice too. WDYT? Any other idea? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Color Theme Application for Flamingo

by Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau

Good evening, We have discussed recently about the necessity of having a new Color Theme Editor for Flamingo. Some of you have suggested to try to integrate in XWiki an existing Bootstrap Customizer such as FancyBoot: http://fancyboot.designspebam.com/ After looking on Google and Github, I could not find any that matches this criterias: - Bootstrap 3 support - active - compatible with an XWiki integration That is why I propose to write our own, which could actually take some code from existing projects. On my side, I have written 2 prototypes and I have pushed them in a new github repository: https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/bootstrap-customizer-prototypes Prototype A ==== Demo: http://xwiki-contrib.github.io/bootstrap-customizer-prototypes/prototypeA/ (chrome users: please refresh the page if you do not see a color picker when you click on an input box) This prototype opens a real web page inside an iframe, and use the LESS browser compiler to update the CSS. Pros: - it uses LESS so it shows the **real** results - any wiki page can be seen in the preview frame - not so hard time to implement Cons: - it is quite slow, and sometimes the browser gets frozen for a few seconds. Prototype B ==== Demo: http://xwiki-contrib.github.io/bootstrap-customizer-prototypes/prototypeB/ This prototype emulates the behaviour of LESS when we change some variables. The results is displayed in a preview box, but it is a fake one. Pros: - The prototype runs quickly in the browser because there is no LESS compiler involved. Cons: - The preview box is not a real page and it cannot show all use-cases. - Will take more time to implement and to maintain because we have to manually emulate what LESS would do in the preview box. I'm +1 for Prototype A. What do you think? Thanks, Guillaume

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] New Mail Sender module + API

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, I’ve worked with Lyes to define a new mail sender API. We’ve put it here: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/MailModule Our idea is to: - implement this in XWiki Platform in xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-mail/xwiki-platform-mail-sender. In the future we’ll be able to have xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-mail/xwiki-platform-mail-reader if we want. At some point we should also move the Mail configuration UI in xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-mail/xwiki-platform-mail-ui. - deprecate the mailsender plugin and once all our code has been updated to use this new API, move the plugin to xwiki-contrib. Please let us know what you think about both the API and the plan. Thanks -Vincent

I use admin tools to export/import large content, it's a very good tool, almost all documents are imported successfully. but now in order to have the approved revision functionality i must have the version "1.1" for all imported document. Can i tell Admin tools to override version to "1.1" ? Thanks in advance :)

[xwiki-devs] [Brainstorming] Best practices for storing Application pages

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, Right now our practice in XWiki Platform for the apps we develop is to move to storing all the pages of an app in a single space. See http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ApplicationDevelopmentBestPra…, specifically: “ Generally, put all your pages in a single space dedicated for the application you're developing (e.g. Faq, Scheduler, IRC, AppWithinMinutes, etc). The name must be as short as possible while still being understandable of course and without overusing abbreviations. " Now there are potentially some use cases that may warrant to have 2 spaces: one for the content documents and one for the technical documents: - ability to easily set permissions on all technical pages so that only a group of person can modify them but allow another group of persons to edit the content pages (e.g. for the Blog application) - easier to remove all the content pages of an app but still keep the app working So one idea would be systematically have 2 spaces for apps: - one XXX space (e.g. Blog space) for holding content pages - one XXXCode space (e.g. BlogCode space) for holding technical pages Of course all technical pages are hidden and thus the XXXCode space will not appear in the list of spaces or searches by default. WDYT? Would you be ok to modify all our existing apps to go in that direction? Note: A future solution is to use nested spaces but even with nested spaces the need for 2 spaces would be the same. We would just need to make the XXXCode space a subspace of the XXX space (assuming we can set permissions on subspaces ;)). Thanks -Vincent
