[xwiki-devs] [Contrib] Request repository for "application-templates"
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 18 Jul '16

18 Jul '16

Hello devs, I want to publish a collection of templates that can be used in the Creation step. They will be content templates that provide a certain structure for pages, depending on the use case, making it faster for users to follow a certain layout standard. Initially it would contain Article, Encyclopedia, Meeting Report and Simple Page. I would need: - a repository on xwiki-contrib called "application-templates" - a JIRA project called "TEMPLATES" - no e.x.o page yet - username: evalica Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] Convention for class property hints ?
by Jerome Velociter 18 Jul '16

18 Jul '16

Hello, Right now class property hints are not supported right in the core of XWiki (though it's been mentioned as a possible future item of the roadmap for AWM, see http://markmail.org/message/ltuphlj7bnnso2yb ). Once this will be implemented, it will rely on i18n message keys so that hints are localizables (same strategy as for class property pretty names) I'd like to start the discussion and see if we can agree on a convention that would be used in the future when this module is implemented. The reason for this is I'm starting to work on a LDAP admin UI, and I find that their field pretty names are not self-explanatory. It's not a matter of expression, it's just the fact that what they describe needs more explanation than what the pretty name can offer). In this light, I'm planning on displaying such longer hints in this admin section. Right now the format for a pretty name is : Space.Class_property=Pretty name The format for a hint could be something like : Space.Class_property.xHint=Hint This would need escaping rules I think, since I believe "property.xHint" is a valid property name Note that I use "xHint" and not "hint" to be consistent with the form standards class names. This can be discussed though. WDYT ? Do you have other ideas ? Jerome. -- Jérôme Velociter Winesquare http://www.winesquare.net/

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Use {{html clean="false"}} as a best practice when developing applications
by Marius Dumitru Florea 18 Jul '16

18 Jul '16

Hi devs, I'd like to propose that we use, from now on, {{html clean="false"}} when developing applications, because: * HTML cleaning is an extra step that can increase page loading time * the HTML cleaner can have bugs (like any other code) or unexpected behaviour (like removing some elements or some attributes when you don't expect it) * when I make a mistake in my HTML code I'd like to detect it as soon as possible, instead of letting the cleaner silently "fix" it for me. Note that we would still have the webstandards validation tests as a safety net (only for the default distribution though) We should keep clean=true by default because we don't want the XWiki users to break the XWiki UI too easily when they copy some HTML from the web and paste it inside the HTML macro. Here's my +1 WDYT? Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] Saving page name with accented character?
by Julio Brum 15 Jul '16

15 Jul '16

I am using the XWiki version 7.4.1 with UTF-8 in Xwiki, tomcat8 and Postgres, but every time than I save a page with accent in the name, XWiki change the name. For example, I try to save a page with the name "é" and XWiki save "%25C3%25A9" Please, why this happens? *My settings in windows:* *tomcat\conf\server.xml:* <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" URIEncoding="UTF-8" *xwiki.cfg:* xwiki.encoding=UTF-8 *PostgreSQL:* CREATE DATABASE wiki WITH OWNER = postgres ENCODING = 'UTF8' TABLESPACE = pg_default LC_COLLATE = 'Portuguese_Brazil.1252' LC_CTYPE = 'Portuguese_Brazil.1252' CONNECTION LIMIT = -1; Thanks, Julio

[xwiki-devs] Panels lists subpages on navigation bar
by Alessandro Strambini 15 Jul '16

15 Jul '16

Hey all I have a problem with the Panels.Spaces navigation option in xwiki. I run 7.2 at the moment and i know its deprecated in 8.x, but i have no option to migrate at this time. So Panels.spaces lists all my Spaces correctly but it adds subpages too when i add a page in a space for example with the '+'. And its shown like 'Space.CreatedPageName'. Anyone knows what to change? Because when I'm inside the Space and i edit it and add a page in the source code, like 'name>>doc:name' it gets added without problems. Thank you for any help Best regards Alessandro Strambini

[xwiki-devs] [Vote] Showcase contributors in the Release Notes
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 14 Jul '16

14 Jul '16

Hi, Since May 2015 we added in the Release Plan Help a step that collects the list of code contributors of a release and lists them in the announcement mail. IMO this is a nice way to acknowledge and thank people that are contributing to XWiki. I want to propose that we add this contributors list in the Release Notes. Release Notes are accessible when someone wants to downloads XWiki and they are also referenced as documentation when we close issues, while the mailinglist are read just by the people that are subscribed. This visibility increase will be beneficial to thank participants and also maybe motivate other users to join the development. We could have this listing both in the Release Notes and the Announcement Mail, but I believe it's sufficient in the Release Notes (let me know if you disagree). This change would imply: - Change in the Release Plan to add this step - Change in the Release Plan Help to document the process - Change the Release Notes Template to add the Contributors section The Release Manager would compute the code contributors, but additional people could add themselves in case they contributed translations or performed tests (which usually happen after the release, so it's hard to put this responsibility on the shoulders of the RM). Let me know if you want the contributions to be exclusive to code contributions. Also having other types of contributions means that we drop the announcement mail listing since it could be incomplete. Let me know what you think. My +1 Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] [Blog] Updating the XWiki UI using a bit of JavaScript and Velocity code
by Eduard Moraru 14 Jul '16

14 Jul '16

Hi, I`m sharing with you the addition of a new article on xwiki.org's blog: "Updating the XWiki UI using a bit of JavaScript and Velocity code" by Oana Tabaranu http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/Updating+the+XWiki+UI+using+a+bit+… It is a quick tutorial, exemplifying how you can use a bit of JavaScript and Velocity coding to update certain parts of XWiki's (or your application's) User Interface on the fly (without reloading the entire page). For more info on the topic, make sure to follow the links at the bottom of the article or feel free to ask here and either Oana or anyone else from the community with the knowledge should help you out. Reminder: If you have something XWiki-related that you would like to share on xwiki.org's blog, please see my previous mail on how you can easily do that: http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/r4r4celltmdprqia Thanks, Eduard

Hello. I'm trying to grant page delete right for all registered users.I'm doing it by running this code in onEvent method of my ApplicationReadyEventListenerif (contextProvider != null) { XWikiContext context = contextProvider.get(); if (context != null) { XWiki xwiki = context.getWiki(); DocumentReference dr = new DocumentReference("xwiki", "XWiki", "XWikiPreferences"); XWikiDocument doc = xwiki.getDocument(dr, context); BaseObject bo = doc.getObject("XWiki.XWikiGlobalRights", true, context); bo.set("groups", "XWiki.XWikiAllGroup", context); bo.set("levels", "view,comment,edit,script,delete", context); bo.set("users", "", context); bo.set("allow", 1, context); xwiki.saveDocument(doc, context); }}It does the job, but causes a new issue. Tree view on my page stops working showing infinite loading whentrying to expand a node.
