[xwiki-devs] Build Broken in xwiki-core
by Andreas Schaefer 31 Jul '09

31 Jul '09

Hi Doing a build today I saw that it is problem in the xwiki-core/pom.xml updated by you. It is a case of a missing S at the end of xwiki-core-rendering-macro-footnote(s).

[xwiki-devs] Blog Rss Upgrade Vows
by Andreas Schaefer 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

Hi As the last items on the Blog 2.0 Upgrade I wanted to upgrade the RSS documents like GlobalBlogRss. There I ran into the issue that the renderer (I don't know which) is adding the macro as comment to the beginning of the XML file but that is not allowed because the <?xml must start the file (not even spaces are allowed). The upgrade code looks like this: {{include document="Blog.RssCode"/}} {{velocity filter="none"}} {{html clean="false" wiki="true"}} ## ## ## #getGlobalBlogEntries($entries) #set($entries = $xwiki.wrapDocs($entries)) #displayGlobalBlogRss($entries) {{/html}} {{/velocity}} The page output looks like this: <p> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> Does anyone know how to remove that comment or how to generate proper XML content with 2.0? If anyone can point me to some code that does that would be enough to get me started. Cheers - Andy

[xwiki-devs] Distributed events
by Thomas Mortagne 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

Hi devs, I'm currently working on a network event distribution system. The goal is to be able to shared events across XWiki instance (or not XWiki) of a same network groups. There is two target: - unique easy clustering channel: if every XWiki instance of a network group share the events it's becoming easy to make sure all instance of the same cluster are synchronized and not only the code which is using default cache system - a new push communication interface to know what append on a farm for network administrator or for softs like XWord and XEclipse to easily update pages list etc... To summarize I plan to do a Remote Observation Manager module which send events coming for Observation Manager and inject in it events coming for the network. See http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/DistributedEvents for more details (like events converters etc...). For now my choice is on jgroups for the network part which is simple to use, very configurable and well known. I looked at some other like JMS or Hazelcast but after all, I think jgroups contains all i need and is very light. Would be great if some of you who has experience on this (or not) could shoot with all remarks and suggestions. I should be able to commit a first try based on jgroups this week on sandbox. Thanks, -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] Search for Hidden XWiki Documents
by Andreas Schaefer 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

I am close to have the entire Blog Application upgraded to 2.0 Syntax (now I upgraded the Panels). That brings me back to the create an export of the application which is a pain in the next using the full export but does not work using the Import / Export Application. Looking into the I/E App I saw that it is using XWiki.searchDocuments(String sql) but that will not return any HIDDEN documents. The PackageAPI (used by the full export) is not providing a list and it seems it would break its indention to do so. So first I was wondering if there is a way to obtain a list of documents including the hidden ones? I not then I was wondering if we should export XWiki or should create another Plugin that delivers all documents? Finally I am thinking that we might should extend the full export (XWiki Administration) allowing a user to create custom exports more or less like the I/E application? Cheers - Andy

[xwiki-devs] Fwd: [Wiki Importer] Design questions
by Vincent Massol 29 Jul '09

29 Jul '09

(resending since I got a failure from xwiki's mail content filter ) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Vincent Massol <vincent(a)massol.net> Date: Sun, Jul 26, 2009 at 11:33 AM Subject: [Wiki Importer] Design questions To: XWiki Developers <devs(a)xwiki.org> Hi Arun, I've just started reviewing your module. I'll send questions as they come. Here are some to start with: 1) Why do you need the Wiki interface? Since all implementations are wiki-specific and since it doesn't contain any useful method I don't see why it's needed. 2) Why do you need 2 methods in WikiImporter interface? I would have imagine only a single method: WikiImporter.import(...) 3) Why do you pass a byte array instead of a stream? If the import is large a byte array will result in an OOM error. 4) WikiImporterVelocityContextInitializer has invalid javadoc. In addition instead of exposing each importer you could expose only a single importer factory and pass an import syntax to it. This will reduce the coupling and not expose the implementations to the client side (very important). Something like: WikiImporterFactory.createImporter(ImportSyntax). 5) This should never be written (in DefaultImportWikiParser & DefaultImportWikiRenderer for ex): //Intialize Embeddable Component Manager EmbeddableComponentManager ecm = new EmbeddableComponentManager(); ecm.initialize(this.getClass().getClassLoader()); The component manager must alway be passed as a dependency. 6) You shouldn't use @Component("default") but instead @Component 7) You should never use new File(System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"). Instead you should use the existing API located in Container.getApplicationContext().getTemporaryDirectory(). I have some more comments but since they are linked to the above let's agree first on the points above before going further. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [PROPOSAL] Restrict OO server administration to main xwiki
by Asiri Rathnayake 29 Jul '09

29 Jul '09

Hi Devs, Currently on a multi-xwiki installation all the xwikis can manipulate the OO server instance shared between them. I think it makes more sense to allow only the primary xwiki to control the oo server while rest of the xwikis become observers / consumers. WDYT? Here is my +1. Thanks. - Asiri

[xwiki-devs] FYI -- google tech talk on "the visual wiki"
by Niels Mayer 29 Jul '09

29 Jul '09

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ52ORG89Yg&feature=channel ( http://thinkbase.cs.auckland.ac.nz/ ) Google Tech Talks June 4, 2008 ABSTRACT Successful knowledge management results in a competitive advantage in today's information- and knowledge-rich industries. The elaboration and integration of emerging web-based tools and services has proven suitable for collecting and organizing intellectual property. Due to an increasing information overload, information and knowledge visualization have become an effective method for representing complex bodies of knowledge in an alternative fashion by using visual languages. The focus of this research is the development of a "Visual Wiki", which combines the notion of a textual and a visual representation of knowledge. A Visual Wiki model has been proposed which provides a unified framework to design and discuss different approaches. Three prototypes of Visual Wikis have been implemented and evaluated according to the improvements to knowledge management applications that they facilitate.
