Subject: Re: [xwiki-devs] Macro requiring js/css
Hi Glenn,
The solution is to use a Javascript Extension (JSX).
See
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/SkinExtensionsTutoria
l
Then you put the $jsx.use in your java macro.
This looks promising. From the context of a java macro is there any way to use the $jsx
type references? It looks like the only thing a macro can do is return a
List<Block> instance so I'm not sure it can affect the system header includes?
Using a velocity page could work but seems klunky to have a plugin import pages into the
wiki just to get a macro.
In the near future (2.0M1), you'll be able to write XWiki 2.0 syntax
macros in wiki pages so it'll be more easy to write very UI-oriented
macros.
Of course you can also write your macro as a Velocity macro right now
in a Wiki page and attach the JXS object to that page.

resources like this to be included in the page header? In
confluence this was done by having a #requireResource statement in a
velocity template included by the macro.
How can this be done in xwiki?
