hi vincent/fabio I have completed the first version of the sample plugin for xwiki syntax colouring.But when i try to commit it to the sandbox I'm getting the following error First I checkout the plugin folder by svn co https://malaka@ svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/sandbox/plugins/ xwiki-sandbox-plugins then add my folder to the xwiki-sandbox-plugins folder and add it to the svn.when I try to commit my work by "svn co" it asked for the password .After entering the password it gives the following error svn: Commit failed (details follow): svn: MKACTIVITY of '/svnroot/sandbox/!svn/act/38ca4be0-0b6d-48c2-a151-04a2374fb9e3': 500 Internal Server Error (https://svn.xwiki.org) svn: Your commit message was left in a temporary file: svn: '/home/malaka/xwiki-repo/xwiki-sandbox-plugins/svn-commit.tmp' -- Malaka Ekanayake CSE UOM

Malaka who is working on this has also implemented an editor with initial syntax highlighting and he'll commit it soon. I cannot open accounts on the SVN repository so you must ask Vincent or someone else who has administrative rights for doing so. > Again Sir, What other functionalities are intended, like groovy/ > velocity > support, and where do I get information about its syntax etc? > Is there any other functionality that I have missed out? > Here we have to decide how to split the work because there is too much overlap. Starting from what Malaka and you have achieved until now I propose the following: 1) Malaka could concentrate on XWiki parser integration in the Eclipse text framework as previously discussed with Vincent here on the list. 2) You might discuss with Stephane to concentrate more on your project's objective that, if I am not wrong, are more semantic-web- related. 3) Both of you, since you are now expert on this field, could work together with us in order to integrate advanced feature, such as support for advanced sub-languages (this has also to be investigated with respect to how to well modularize the components). It is important, though, to have a code base where to start for, so the priority is to commit code in the sandbox so everybody will be in synch. WDYT? Cheers, Fabio

[xwiki-devs] [GSOC]anything new like jtidy
by Wang Ning 17 Jun '08

17 Jun '08

Hi, I have build a web app which can provide documents conversion service, both through web page or RESTful web service. All the documents are converted to html format. Now, I want to clean the result html. As discussed before, I go to JTidy[1]. Hense, I find that the last release of JTidy is published at August 1, 2001. I wonder if there is some more active project for html code cleaning, or JTidy is just sufficient? After clean the html, I will write some parser to convert html to xwiki syntax. All I have done is a web app which can run standalone. It accept input file, convert it to format file or purge xwiki syntax code, and output the result. I'm confused about how to develop it as a xwiki plugin. I know how to develop a xwiki plugin. As office import need upload file, output the result, I just don't know how to integrate it in to xwiki. Any suggestion will be very appreciated. Thanks. [1]http://jtidy.sourceforge.net/index.html -- Sincerely, Wang Ning

[xwiki-devs] Sorting JIRA issues
by Vincent Massol 17 Jun '08

17 Jun '08

Hi everyone, Just to let you know that I've taken the liberty of adding a new custom field in JIRA for Core called "Development Priority" with 3 values: low, medium and high. The idea is to categorize all our jira issues with this field in order to prioritize our efforts. Note that we're not using the existing Priority field since that field represents the priority from the user's point of view. Thus you're going to see lots of issue notifications coming in... sorry about that. If you don't agree about a given priority let us know as a comment in the issue. Note that the priorities are global, i.e. compared with other existing jira issues and not absolute. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] SSO framework integration
by Markus Lanthaler 17 Jun '08

17 Jun '08

Hi, after evaluating possible frameworks I would propose to use OpenSSO [1] for my GSOC SSO project. It has full SAML 2.0 support, but lacks a bit regarding OpenID which isn't supported by default. There is an extension which allows OpenSSO to act as a OpenID 1.1 OP, but doesn't have RP support. OpenSSO has a very active and large community (which maybe is the strongest argument to use it). There are several requests for better OpenID support so I think that's a hot topic for them and maybe it's possible to find some other developers with whom I can add full OpenID 2.0 support. So now I'll start implementing RP support (authentication). As far as I understand the code I have to implement a XWikiAuthService analogous to the XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl, right? I also have some more questions :-) Let's start with OpenID (I'll start with that): 1.) I need to modify the login screen because I just need a field where the user can enter his OpenID URL, no password field. Then the user is redirect to his OpenID provider. How should/can I implement that? 2.) OpenIDs have to be bound to local user accounts (1:n relations, allow more OpenIDs per account) - how should this happen? In the admin GUI? Who should be allowed to do it? 3.) What about user registration? Should it be possible for users to create accounts without password and just OpenID? Please consider that XWiki should also be able to act as a provider, i.e. act as an OpenID server. Cheers, Markus -- [1] http://opensso.dev.java.net

[xwiki-devs] [GSOC] Today is GSOC project starting day
by Vincent Massol 17 Jun '08

17 Jun '08

Hi GSOCers, The bonding period is over and today starts your GSOC project period. Note that this doesn't mean you should drop whatever JIRA issue you had assigned to yourself. Please continue to work on it and *finish* it. It's important. However it means that from today onwards you can start working on your project. The most important thing to do is send an email on the xwiki dev list explaining: * what architecture you're envisioning to use for your project. If you have doubts/questions please mention them. * A general planning breaking down the high level tasks you have to do and giving deadlines for each. That'll help you reach your objectives and in that manner we (the mentors and the community in general) can also help you by reviewing milestone objectives and helping you achieve them * what are your next steps and when you're planning to have them done * Any questions you have Please use the mailing list over IRC and especially over direct skype/ chat. Again it's really important that you work with the community. The success of your SOC depends on that as much as finishing your project. Thanks, good luck and have fun! -Vincent on behalf of the XWiki mentors

Hi Malaka, I've looked at your code and you did a good job! It works pretty well though there are some things that must be improved (like the ones you were mentioning) Before I commit the code, could you please, do a bit of reformatting? Here at http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/xwiki-platform/xwiki-tools/trunk/xwiki-v… you can find the .xml for the Eclipse formatter. This style is the style used by XWiki. I saw that that in your code there are some classes that probably are useless (is the TagRule used?) Could you please remove all the unused code inorder to avoid confusion? I also noticed that you incorporated verbatim some code from the tutorial (the tutorial's author name is in your code) Be careful when incorporating third party code. You must always check for licenses and compatibility and authorization!!! Ideally you should write all the code by yourself, even if when you use a framework you end up with writing more or less the same code. Could you check that the tutorial's code can be reused without restrictions? Please, keep the conversations on the XWiki devs list so that everybody can follow it. Send me a zip with the modifications and I'll commit it to the sandbox. After that, it's important to address Vincent's parser integration and spend some time on trying to figure out if and how it can be integrated in your work. I guess that Vincent's parser should be used as the partitioner, with it's output definining document's partition. But this has to be well investigated because it might be not so simple. Let me know. Cheers, Fabio

[xwiki-devs] [GSOC]Sample plugine
by malaka ekanayake 16 Jun '08

16 Jun '08

Hi fabio During the weekend I have written a sample plugine for xwiki highlighting some of xwiki syntax .Hear are the list of syntaxes which supports it. Titles ,Bulleted Lists,Text Styles,Info Macro<http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Macros/InfoMacro> There are some improvements needed to be done . I am having some trouble with identifying composite syntax like bold & Italic. I think I will need your help on that. At the same time is there any reference to learn the jface API because at the moment only I have is the article you gave to me. I think I need to understand it more deeply .So any reference related to JFace Text API will be nice since :D. I will commit my work to the sandbox today. I didn't have time to look in to the Vincent's parser yet. I 'll start it by today.Meantime is there any news from Venkatesh cheers --Malaka Ekanayake CSE UOM
