Hi all,
One Codehaus (
http://www.codehaus.org/) need to eventually use XWiki
as main web site engine would be for us to implement an HTML export
feature.
I made some work on this and I propose to commit on 1.3 (Sergiu just
created the 1.2 branch) a new ExportAction (like the pdf/rtf one)
that
handle HTLM/ZIP export (
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-564):
- support a range a multiwiki pages in view mode without request
parameters
- add skin dependencies in the package
- add attachments in the package
- modify links targeting skin, attachment and exported pages in
exported pages (using a custom URL factory)
- package all this in a zip file
So will this be a single action that I can run?
It's a url yes.
Also can I control the structure of the exported HTML?
what's your need?
I would like to
be able to apply any CSS to the site that is output.
By default we export the albatross skin in a directory. This skin
contains css files. You can certainly replace these CSS with your own.
Can I trigger this with a webservice call?
Since it's a URL you can simply call it with any http client.
Those are my use cases. I know, very demanding :-)
But this would allow integration into existing system to that XWiki
could be integrated into any existing system.
Note: I haven't tried it yet but I'll do soon.
Thanks
