[xwiki-devs] Will XWiki Activity Stream deprecation affect activitystream_events table?
by ktc 18 Dec '17

18 Dec '17

Hi devs, Right now we are building a feature based on XWiki Activity Stream and get data from activitystream_events table from database. We've heard that XWiki will replace Activity Stream with Notification. Does this mean activitystream_events table will be deprecated as well? If it is, do you have any suggestions for replacement like where we can get similar data from database and which application/extension with similar support features that we can rely on? Thanks a lot! -- Sent from: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/XWiki-Dev-f475773.html

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Login button for desktop
by Guillaume Delhumeau 14 Dec '17

14 Dec '17

Hi Devs, Currently, the login button is inside the drawer menu, which is quite standard on mobile phones. However, on desktop, a lot of people are confused and cannot find how to login/register. I propose to add a login button in the top menu, like this: https://jira.xwiki.org/secure/attachment/34731/Proposition3.png Related JIRA: https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-14881# That could be nice to have it in addition to the current links, for 9.11. Note: we also need to put a "register" link in the login form, so that people can register from there without the need to also add a register button on the top menu (that would be too much IMO). WDYT? Thanks, -- Guillaume Delhumeau (guillaume.delhumeau(a)xwiki.com) Research & Development Engineer at XWiki SAS Committer on the XWiki.org project

[xwiki-devs] [Contrib] Request repository for "icon-themes"
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 11 Dec '17

11 Dec '17

Hello devs, I want to publish additional IconThemes inside the Contrib organisation. These themes will be complementary to the xwiki-platform-icon [1] module, and in the future we could move deprecated themes from platform there (for example Silk, FA). I will want to contribute IconThemes for Glyphicon (icon-themes-glyphicons) and Material (icon-themes-material) icon sets. I would need: - a repository on xwiki-contrib called "icon-themes" - a JIRA project called "ICONTHEMES" - no e.x.o page yet - username: evalica Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Caty [1] https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/tree/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwi…

[xwiki-devs] [PROPOSAL] So what do we do about HashCodeBuilder parameters ?
by Thomas Mortagne 08 Dec '17

08 Dec '17

Hi devs, Most Object#hashCode() are implemented using HashCodeBuilder. HashCodeBuilder provide an empty constructor and also allow setting "random" numbers. http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/JavaCodeStyle#HEquals2FHashCo… does not really say anything about what do do and when currently so I would like to have a clear rule about it. On my side when I don't plan to use different types of objects in a hash key I usually simply use the empty HashCodeBuilder constructor. The only point of setting different numbers is when you might end up comparing different object types (and even in that case you have the #equals() safeguard anyway so it's mostly about performances in practice). So here is a proposal: it's OK to use empty HashCodeBuilder constructor except: * when overwriting the hachCode of a super class you should use different numbers than the super class (since there is big chance to have that super class used as a hash key) * as a best effect in general if you know that you are going to have several different types as hash key, try to make sure they use different random numbers, your proc will thank you :) WDYT ? -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] Notifications final steps
by Guillaume Delhumeau 07 Dec '17

07 Dec '17

Hello devs community, As you know, my main focus this year was on the notifications. My objective has been to replace the Watchlist with the notification emails. Today, we are almost there. The 2 remaining issues are: * https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-14844 (Live emails notifications should be grouped by XWiki pages) and * https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-14891 (Introduce a notifications macro to replace the Watchlist macro) I have updated the design page about this replacement: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/ReplacetheWatchlistbyNotifi… . I am confident that these issues will be implemented for 9.12. Proposition: * we encourage users to enable the notifications on 9.11 and to test it * for 9.12, we enable all notification features by default * for 9.12, we don't bundle the Watchlist in XWiki Standard anymore. What do you think ? Thanks, -- Guillaume Delhumeau (guillaume.delhumeau(a)xwiki.com) Research & Development Engineer at XWiki SAS Committer on the XWiki.org project

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Agree on en_US vs en_GB
by Vincent Massol 05 Dec '17

05 Dec '17

Hi devs, By default the xwiki core committers maintain an “en” version of all translations and the other languages are left to the community to maintain on l10n.xwiki.org This mail is about deciding if our “en” version is “en_US” or “en_GB”. I propose that we standardize on “en_US”. for example ApplicationResources.properties would correspond to en_US. I also propose that we add en_GB on l10n so that the community could maintain a UK version if they want (it would fall back to en_US when there are no translations, which is a good thing). WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
