[xwiki-devs] Open questions for the XWiki syntax v2.0
by Vincent Massol 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

Some open issues/questions: 1) I think we need a syntax for escaping a block of text. I'd propose using {{{whatever here}}} (same as creole and confluence). We could do it with a macro but I don't know how we could implement it easily... 2) Do we want double curly braces for macros or simple ones: {{macro/}} or {macro/}. If we use simple ones then it won't be easy to enter { and } chars in a text (they would need to be escaped) and since we've decided to have double chars for items ( **, --, ~~, etc) we might as well do that for macros. 3) Do we want to support images in links. For example: [[image:someimage.png]]? We already support URIs in links, such as mailto: so maybe it wouldn't be too hard to support images too I guess. Or do we want only the Image macro? A related question is do we support http images (http://.../someimage.png) inside links and as an inline element directly in the text? 4) Tables: do we keep the table macro or do we want a wiki syntax for tables. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Javascript: YUI v3
by Vincent Massol 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

just in case this is useful for us: http://javascriptly.com/2008/08/yui-30-changes-from-the-root/ " 5 goals: • Lighter (less K-weight on the wire and on the page for most uses) • faster (fewer http requests, less code to write and compile, more efficient code) • more consistent (common naming, event signatures, and widget APIs throughout the library) • more powerful (do more with less implementation code) • more securable (safer and easier to expose to multiple developers working in the same environment; easier to run under systems likeCaja or ADsafe) [...] So, what’s new in YUI 3.0? Many things, both large and small like: • Intelligent loading. YUI detect which modules it needs to load, and then download them from a server — it will also join the modules’ JavaScript source files together, in order to optimize download time. • Change to a “YUI” namespace instead of “Yahoo” namespace in YUI 2.x branches. • Combine DOM events with custom events, making it possible to work with all events in a unified way. • Borrow “selectors” idea from JQuery to allow finding and working with nodes on an individual and group basis. • Chaining - another JQuery’s idea that makes it possible to write more compressed chaining syntax in implementation code.

[xwiki-devs] [GSOC] RESTful API
by Cismaru Alexandru 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

Hello. Here is the list of URL patterns used by the RESTful API: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/RestfulAPI . Everything that's on this page it's working, but I haven't found time to write full tests for them. You can't just yet create an attachment, create and delete a class property, create an object and update an object property. Thanks, Alex

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Enable space rights inheritance as default setting
by Jerome Velociter 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

Dear devs, Since XWiki 1.2, a rights inheritance mechanism is available in XWiki that allows to make a wiki space have the exact same rights (inherited) as it's parent space, defined as a WebPreferences ("parent" property of the XWiki.XWikiPreferences object). This mechanism has to be activated adding "xwiki.rights.maxrecursivespacechecks=1" to xwiki.cfg I propose we enable this as a default setting. This is very usefull when developing applications in XWiki for example (example: to have MyAppCode inherit XWiki). I see two ways of doing it : 1) We make "1" being default returned value in the java code when the property is not defined in xwiki.cfg, and document the use of xwiki.rights.maxrecursivespacechecks to disable the mechanism, or to allow more levels of inheritance (2, 3, etc.) 2) We add xwiki.rights.maxrecursivespacechecks=1 to xwiki.cfg I prefer way 1) and am +1 for it WDYT ? Regards, Jerome.

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Change group ids for projects
by Vincent Massol 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

Hi, Since we've reorganized our products into projects I'm now proposing that we change their group id from "com.xpn.xwiki.products" to "org.xwiki.<project>". Note that we're already using org.xwiki.platform for the platform project. Note also that this means rename org.xwiki.eclipse to org.xwiki.xeclipse. Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] why is getURLContent not streaming?
by Paul Libbrecht 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

Hello XWikiers, I am really surprised that there's no variant of $xwiki.getURLContent(url) which simply streams in place. Since we are in velocity where interpretation is streaming, it would appear natural that such a macro is also streaming, or? paul

[xwiki-devs] report issues about the new wysiwyg editor in 1.6M1
by Wang Ning 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

Hi, I tried to use the new WYSIWYG editor in 1.6M1. I found some issues. 1) The new wysiwyg don't handle multi-level list correct. When I edit a multi-level list in wysiwyg and save. The multi-level became flat.Is this related to the xhtmlparser? 2) I type some letters and set them to strike format( the same for bold, underline and italic). Then I want to type some new works who is format is not strike. I just can't do this. All the words I typed after is strike. -- Thanks Wang Ning
