Hi,
I think it's a good idea. Just a more detailed thing targeting XEM and
other multiwiki products: It would be great to have installer with
izpack "<pack></pack>" organized one wiki/xar a pack and create
sub
wiki from attached xar as you said and XWikiServer document at
installer runtime.
WDYT ?
For XEM I see 3 packs:
* Platform Core
* XEM Admin XAR
* XEM Template XAR
Is that what you mean?
Yes it's that, for now. I suppose latter we will have more template
(Blog wiki, Wiki wiki, ...).
Now for creating sub wikis, I think it might be best to leave that to
the XEM Admin XAR so that when an admin logs in the Admin XAR he has
the buttons for creating and administrating sub wikis. I don't see
that as a feature of the installer but more a runtime feature (as
anyway the admin needs the option of creating/removing sub wikis).
That feature already exists in the Admin wiki but It will be easier
for a user to have theses templates in an installer interface. Plus if
we have lots of template wiki (which I thinks would be great) use
installer lighten Admin wiki.
WDYT?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm proposing to improve the generic install to add database
configuration setup:
1) include different database driver jars in the installer
2) have some installation panels to let the user choose the database
to use (using some combo box and fields to modify default DB values)
3) include the XAR in the installer
4) use the packager tool to import the XAR in the database at install
time (using the information provided in 2))
Note: I'd also like to modify the web/standard build so that we
release only a single WAR without database driver and without DB
configuration.
Advanced users will configure it manually and novice will use the
installer.
WDYT?
Thanks
-Vincent
