[xwiki-devs] debugging sheets applications

by Paul Libbrecht

Hello fellow developers, we have met a fairly hard bug on www.curriki.org which has almost delayed our release and required a last minute removal of our new discussions feature: the trigger of the sheet application has not been consistent. It has been inconsistent between servers (development, staging, production) and has been inconsistent between syntaxes. For a while I thought that the lack of the class XWiki.ClassSheetBinding was guilty, but adding it did not change anything. I then went through the XWiki core pages and added as much as possible that could have something related… then it started to work on pages in old syntax but failed with newly created pages (which are copies of a template page). Where could I look to debug this? There seems to be *something* applied, since the rendered page is empty and the content is ignored. Thanks for hints. Paul PS: we're now running xwiki 3.5.1

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Allow adding new link/images resource types in XWiki Syntax 2.1 or not

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, I’ve just committed support for http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XRENDERING-278 (which allows copy pasting images in the WYSIWYG editor btw). However I’ve just realized (had forgotten) that my code will break image attachments to a subwiki named “data”: image:data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAABAAAAAQCAYAAAAf8/9hAAAABHNCSVQICAgIfAhkiAAAAO9JREFUOE+lUrsNwjAUdCyWIBXjIEokVoCejgkyQ2gYAIkSsQUrUIUxwrund5bjX4OlyPG9u3v22Z2rjM1uWEtpkq//PC/fCs35UoHi/WGL8mTrErVsAJGJHU2KagGzHUi3I8iP+0s1nInXjBSPSfI/n2/vGTNFJZOVCRkYltdGl1FMRqmHYL0FFM6MjnFXaxCwNJMOZAbW6JyVkI1cbwcD3T5MGBjZLQxi8Lw9kp5iFFikUYwZr2dNQzQT7EavsDFOwl2ErNuIh5kgaX1E0bEyMTiZAcA0WAa26GSL7CUaHjJJz1wyqWLpe6gS/yn8AD9tcjFN7/ajAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC Of course the solution for a user is to prefix with “attach:”, to show that it’s an image coming from an attachment: image:attach:data:…. We discussed this previously: * Original thread: http://markmail.org/thread/vw3derowozijqalr * This lead to this first VOTE which was not conclusive: http://markmail.org/thread/vw3derowozijqalr * Which lead to another VOTE which was also not conclusive: http://markmail.org/thread/t2wb2xq7534qsshg (note that this thread contains 2 proposals, the last one beeing a choice between A) and B)). However we kind of agreed at the end that it would be acceptable to break backward compatibility (solution A in the last thread). So the question here: * Should I revert my change that I did for 5.4? * Is it ok to break backward compatibility and thus add this in XWiki Syntax 2.1 as I did and document it on the release notes? Note that I could also relatively easily implement a new rendering configuration option (e.g. rendering.ignoreResourceTypes=user,data) which would be optional and that would allow to ignore some resource types (IMO this is slightly overkill). WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Moving xwiki-platform-wiki-manager to contrib

by Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau

Hi. Since I have implemented a REST api for the creation of subwiki using the new wiki API [1], we can remove wiki-manager from platform [2]. But there is a problem: the new implementation has the exact same interface and the same path than the old one, so we can not have both the new api and xwiki-platform-wiki-manager in the classpath anymore. A solution is to release a new version of xwiki-platform-wiki-manager without its own REST api. I see 2 ways to acheive this: 1/ remove the REST api of wiki-manager and remove wiki-manager in 6.0 or 2/ remove wiki-manager in 5.4 and release a new wiki-manager without the REST api in contrib. What do you prefer? Thanks Louis-Marie [1] : http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9670 [2] : http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9671

[xwiki-devs] Rights issue with new Struts action

by Mircea Staicu

Hello, I am having some issues with a new custom action that I did to solve a platform issue. My work was done a new branch created from the master branch of xwiki on github. I added the new Action class and the form bean to the 'web' module in the xwiki-platform-oldcore @com.xpn.xwiki.web and I mapped the new action in struts-config.xml. I've build the oldcore, followed by the build on the legacy-oldcore, deployed the legacy-oldcore artifact to my local 5.4-SNAPSHOT instance and deployed the struts-config.xml with the new modifications to the WEB-INF/lib. On accessing my action from the wiki, I get the following: You are not allowed to view this document or perform this action. Is there a mapping of the non-default actions and the rights that one must have in order to run them?

[xwiki-devs] xwiki-contrib-websocket -- I'd like to move it to contrib and release into maven.xwiki.org

by Caleb James DeLisle

Hi, I just finished working on XWiki/WebSocket integration which allows components which implement XWikiWebSocketHandler and they will be called when a user creates a WebSocket connection to the wiki. Now I'd like some permission and guidance on getting this published as an extension, unfortunately I was a little bit too modular so I can't just upload a .jar and I will have to publish this in maven.xwiki.org What do people think about transferring this to xwiki-contrib and can anyone give me some advice about publishing an extension through maven? For reference, this is the code: https://github.com/cjdelisle/xwiki-contrib-websocket Thanks, Caleb

[xwiki-devs] Rule for configuration property naming in documentation

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi guys, A long time ago I sent a vote for naming configuration property http://markmail.org/thread/xzz2gqmexkgargbz And this is what has been mostly used in xwiki.properties… However some developers have not followed the existing rules. For example: # solr.embedded.home=/var/local/xwiki/solr # solr.remote.url=http://localhost:8983/solr # solr.indexer.batch.size=50 # solr.indexer.batch.maxLength=10000 # solr.indexer.queue.capacity=100000 This is a pity since it’s hard to change a property. I have now taken the time to document it in our dev practices at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/DevelopmentPractices#HConfigu… If some dev has an issue with this please raise it here. If not, please make sure to follow it from now on. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Issues with 5.2.3 Snapshot

by Sorin Burjan

Hello developers, I have made some tests today the 5.2.3-SNAPSHOT version, and I found out some issues which I don't have on a 5.2.2 install. On a 5.2.2 there is thew following behavior - create test subwiki as "Open" and Admin as creator. * No DW kick in, everything looks ok on the subwiki 5.2.3-SNAPSHOT - create test subwiki as "Open" and Admin as creator. * DW kicks in and asks me if this is an upgrade or not. It does not ask for version. * "Are you performing an upgrade? There are currently 291 documents in the database which indicates this is not a new install. " * Select: "No, this is a new install" * Merge conflicts on pages: XWiki.XWikiAdminGroup, XWiki.XWikiAllGroup, XWiki.XWikiPreferences, XWiki.DefaultSkin, XWiki.SearchSuggestConfig, ColorThemes.WebPreferences, XWiki.WebPreferences * Even that I created the subwiki as Admin, after finishing with the DW, I have the Join button in the Wiki Information panel. * I have an Admin user which is the member of the subwiki, but it seems to be a local Admin. I created the wiki as the global Admin. * Logging off and Logging back in on the subwiki with Admin, I am still logged as the Global Admin, and still not listed as a member of the subwiki. * On the homepage of the subwiki, I have the following text: "You are a member of this wiki. $services.localization.render('platform.workspace.currentUserCanLeave', $leaveUrl)" Just wanted to point these issues out before we release 5.2.3.

[xwiki-devs] Where is the documentation for the Confluence importer?

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi Thomas, I wanted to point someone to our documentation for the new Confluence importer but I couldn’t find documentation for it. All I’ve found was http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XWiki+Platform+-+Wiki+… which is too technical and doesn’t contain much information. I think we need a user-friendly documentation for the Confluence importer that appears in the XE feature list on http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Features Also we should comment on http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Convert+Confluence+to+… to add an {{info}} message to explain there’s now a better way, no? WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] XWiki 6.x Cycle Theme

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, We’re getting close to the end of the 5.x cycle with 5.4 and we need to find a new theme for 6.x. At XWiki SAS we’ve had an internal meeting to brainstorm about what that theme could be and we’ve come up with the following idea: Theme motto: “Slick and Slim” Explanations: * Performance improvements across the board: page load time, scalability, activity stream rewrite, memory usage rationalization * Introduce the flavor mechanism (as already discussed here) with the idea of removing the maximum of extensions from the base and be able to build a minimal, lightweight wiki + create a few flavors (as already discussed here too). * Slickiness achieved with things like new skin (see the proposal from Caty) + syntax highlighting + autocompletion + easier rights UI + etc… In short we’ve realized that XWiki has grown along the years and it’s becoming a bit heavyweight in various aspects. So the idea would be to focus on performances + ease of use to slim it down and ensure it’s kicking fast! Of course, as usual, I’m sure there’ll be other things being worked on, but the idea would be to try our maximum to work within this theme. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [ANN] Welcome our new committer Clemens Robbenhaar

by Thomas Mortagne

Hi xwikiers, The committers discussed and voted to include Clemens Robbenhaar in the team which he agreed so a warm welcome to him ! He has been very active since he started working on XWiki, he already spend a lot of time answering questions on the mailing list and on IRC (more than me I think). On the technical aspect everything I saw from him was good and very clean and he is clearly no afraid to look at advanced stuff (he spent a long time last month trying to help Kaisen and Denis on migration stuff which I'm sure was not that critically related to his own work). Note that he is working on XWiki for EsPresto AG (don't forget to add it to http://main.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Support). I'm sure he will be great addition to the team and it's always a nice bonus to see non XWiki SAS members so active ;) Welcome ! -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] [Brainstorming] Do we still want to be accessible without javascript

by Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau

Hi devs, In a recent pull request (https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/pull/254), I have "fixed" a bug reported by the accessibility validator by hiding a link if javascript is not enabled on the browser. It didn't fix the fact that the feature is unavailable without javascript, but at least the link was not there. I did it because I have the feeling that some committers think we don't need support the navigation without javascript in 2014. Now, it seems that we do not all agree about this. That is why I think we should talk about this to decide what rule we should put in place for the next years. Thanks, in advance, for your opinions. Louis-Marie

[xwiki-devs] How to end/finish respose programmatically?

by Valdis Vītoliņš

Due to performance reasons I had to improve Groovy script to print results directly to the response object: {{groovy}} response.setContentType('application/xml'); response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8"); def out=response.getWriter(); try { ... out.println('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>'); out.println('<certificates>'); ... But now problem is that after that I got additional XWiki HTML even using ?outputSyntax=plain parameter. I suspect, I need to end/close response somehow programmatically. Any hints? Thanks in advance

[xwiki-devs] [Brainstorm] Application development best practices

Hi devs, I’ve started to list at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/ApplicationDevelopmentBes… the list of best practices that we use for developing XWiki Applications. Please let me know if there’s something that is wrong there (i.e. that we’re not doing) Also, please add if you find missing things (I’m sure there are plenty ;)). Please make sure that you **only** add practices that we are **currently** following. Thanks! -Vincent PS: Actually I think this page should be moved to dev.xwiki.org and linked from http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/BestPractices WDYT?

[xwiki-devs] 5.4M1 release day today + RM + lateness

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, Today is release day for 5.4M1. I see that there are quite a few broken functional tests (GuillaumeD, it seems you’ve broken the build 2 weeks ago… could you please fix it ASAP?). Could everyone check the CI to see if there’s anything they can fix? We also need a RM to start the release. Any volunteer? (If not, I’ll propose someone based on http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ReleaseManagerRoster Good candidates: GuillaumeD, Denis, Sergiu and then Thomas, Vincent and last Marius who’s been doing quite a lot during the 5.x cycle). Please don’t commit anything that may fail the build ATM since we need to release M1. Note that I’m worried since the next release is RC1 and not much has been done compared to the defined roadmap… Please make sure that you can still implement what you had planned to do. Let me know how you wish to proceed. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Adding support for H2 in our sources

by vincent＠massol.net

Hi devs, I’ve added support for H2 locally as I wanted to test something on it. The question is whether we’re ok to add support for it in our source (creating subwikis, deleting subwikis)? What I propose is: * I add what I’ve done to the sources * We don’t support it officially (ie similar to other DBs such as DB2) WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] nested lists broken in our wysiwyg editor

by Paul Libbrecht

Hello XWiki gurus, we've met an annoying bug in our xwiki 3.5.1: creating nested lists (numerated or bulleted) breaks the first sub-item because a (% %) appears in front of the list marker. (http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/CURRIKI-6409) This is not there in xwiki.org today so I suppose it got fixed. But crawling Jira did not illuminate me on when this got fixed. Can someone give me a hint about it? thanks in advance paul
