[xwiki-devs] [UX][Proposal] Administration Overview
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 15 Dec '16

15 Dec '16

Hi, This is a idea proposal for an Administration Overview that: A. Provides generic/global information about the instance like 'version', 'instance id', etc. B. Provides a summary of usage listing count of major entities (wikis, users, pages, extensions, etc.) C. Lists demo content installed in the wiki D. Provides a way for administrators to subscribe to the XWiki Community I'm curios which of the above section sounds interesting to you and would like to see inside the product. Also maybe you have other ideas of what is missing or could be represented better. Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] Debug update_ow2() during the next release
by Vincent Massol 14 Dec '16

14 Dec '16

Hi devs, We need to debug our udpate_ow2() which is broken ATM. It does several curl calls but there’s a “-o /dev/null” that prevents seeing errors. It would be great if the next RM could remove those and report the error, (and even possibly work to fix the problem with the others). Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Status on test coverage
by Vincent Massol 12 Dec '16

12 Dec '16

Hi devs, I succeeded I computing the total test coverage for XWiki, an in automating its computation. See http://massol.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/FullCoverageClover for details. The results: * 2012: we had 63.1% TPC (see http://maven.xwiki.org/site/clover/20120701/clover-commons+rendering+platfo… ). 3006 classes, 403577 LOC, average complexity: 1.89 * 2016: we have 73.2% TPC (see http://maven.xwiki.org/site/clover/20161210/clover-commons+rendering+platfo… ). 5967 classes, 736369 LOC, average complexity: 1.7 This is good news, we’re progressing in the right direction! :) Of course this doesn’t take into account non-java LOC and we’re probably reducing our test coverage of code inside wiki pages (or not increasing it). Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Idea] XClass Preferences
by Marius Dumitru Florea 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

Hi devs, I have an XWiki application that has a template provider which allows the users to create application entries anywhere on the wiki using the Create Page menu. I would like to control entirely how application entries are displayed to the user. I can do this partially from my sheet but: * I can't control the panels. I would like to display panels that are specific to my application whenever a user is viewing an application entry, no matter where the application entry is located. * I can't control the color theme or the icon theme. I would like to use a custom color theme and icon theme without affecting the other pages from the wiki. * I can't control the layout (the skin). I can hide the extra tabs from the sheet but I can't hide a panel column or control the panel column width. One solution to fix my problem is to introduce XClass Preferences, same as we have page and wiki preferences. XClass preferences would have priority over page and wiki preferences, inheriting from them. We can implement it using either a naming convention, <ClassName>Preferences, or using some xobject on the XClass, similar to the ClassSheetBinding xobject. Do you see any problem with solution? I can think of one: access rights. Does it make sense to have access rights specific to an XClass? E.g. "only this group can edit instances of this XClass". Do you think it is worth implementing? Another solution would be to allow the sheet to overwrite some of the preferences, but the problem is that the sheet is executed after the page HTML has started to be written to the response. Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Introduce a maintenance mode
by Vincent Massol 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

Hi devs, Here’s a use case: * We set up a clone of xwiki.org (in order to upgrade it for example) * The issue: those other instances of xwiki.org send watchlist mails or the IRC bot on them hijack the #xwiki channel (preventing the real xwiki.org IRC bot to connect) The proposal: * Introduce a maintenance configuration parameter in xwiki.properties. * Have the scheduler obey this mode and not trigger any job when it’s on * Have the IRC Bot module also obey this mode and not try to connect when it’s on WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
