Re: [xwiki-dev] Dynamic Page to Static Page

12 Oct 2006

      Hi,

There's probably several ways to do this... the first one that comes
to my mind is to write an XML-RPC client to grab the rendered content
from one page and save it back into another. Then set up a cron job to
kick off your XML-RPC client periodically. A simple implementation of
the XML-RPC client is below.

Alternatively you could write the code to do the copy in a groovy
script in another XWiki document and hit it periodically.

All,
  Here is what I am wanting to do.  I have a page that generates some dynamic data via a plug-in and every so often I was to "snap-shot" it to a static page.  Mean, take the dynamic page data and create a static xwiki page from it.
1) Is it possible to do?
2) If so, how do I do it.
Thanks,
Tony Nuzzi
