Hi James,

Hi,
First of all, I am very excited that Xwiki
Community accepted my
proposal
"Auto Completion in Content Editors",
and thanks for everyone
that helped me
a lot during the application time.
Second, I will talk about something I have done these days, and
then talk
about the problems that confuse me.
1. I have setted up an Linux(Ubuntu 11.04)+Git+maven(2.2.1)
environment for
developing Xwiki projects. Everything goes well
in this step.
2. And I have downloaded the source code of xwiki-enterprise from
github,
build it up, and got
xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-3.1-SNAPSHOT.zip file
under distribution folder, unzip it and run the
start_xwiki.sh,
and visit
http://localhost:8080
<http://localhost:8080/>, it is successful
to see the xwiki page.
3. I have searched some issues related to WYSIWYG
editors, and I
finnally
chose two for
optionals:http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4471 and
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4179.
Problems:
1.Building XE takes a long time about more than
half an hour, if I am
working on XE, for example fix some bugs of it, and want to
compile and run
it as soon as possible to see the results, have
an hour would be
a very long
time for waiting each time. I know maybe the
second time for
building XE
will be much faster than the first time, but it
still take some
time to
build the whole codes, it must slow down the
efficiency to debug
my code.
So anyone can tell me how should I do, or is
there any best
prictices for
debuging and compling the code based on XE.
You don't have to build XE. http://ci.xwiki.org/ does this for us and
publishes the results on http://maven.xwiki.org/ . You should just
download (once in a while) the latest XE snapshot from
http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/org/xwiki/enterprise/xwiki-enterprise-jett…
. Then, when you want to test your code you simply update the jars
(WEB-INF/lib) and/or resources (JS, CSS, Velocity templates) from your
XE instance and restart the server for jars and/or clear browser cache
for resources.
Do you mean if I want to fix a bug in one of the java
files, and first
I should download the jar which contains the java file, and then modify
it, then complile it(by maven), re-build the jar(by maven), replace it
in XE instance, and restart the server to test, right?
Jars contain (most of the time) only the byte code so you can't get the
sources from them. You have to git clone xwiki-platform, modify the
module you wish/need, build it with maven, copy the generated jar from
the target directory to the WEB-INF/lib on your XE instance (making sure
you overwrite the existing jar) then restart XE.
See below re JIRA issues.
You should edit resources directly on your running XE instance and then
update your local Git repo. Some JS and CSS files are minified. In this
case you should overwrite the minified version with the original version
from you local Git repo.
I see, thank you~~~
In order to update the WYSIWYG editor you have to:
* When you make changes to the client side, replace the
resources/js/xwiki/wysiwyg/xwe directory with the one from the generated
war (xwiki-platform-wysiwyg-war). Don't overwrite. Remove the existing
directory and copy the one from the war.
* When you make changes to the server side, simply update the
xwiki-platform-wysiwyg-server jar from WEB-INF/lib
The two issues you picked are a bit difficult for you at this point. I
suggest you start with these issues, in order:
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6197 --> see how the WYSIWYG and
wiki editors are integrated in edit mode.
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5560 --> understand how the
content is saved in WYSIWYG and wiki edit modes.
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5583 --> investigate the WYSIWYG
editor loading process.
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4475 and
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4398 --> understand the resource
and document references and how WYSIWYG editor wizards work.
This should keep you busy for a while :)
Note that you can leave a comment on JIRA if you have specific
questions/remarks about any of these issues.
Hope this helps,
Marius
2. About the selected two issues, one is to add a small new
feature, and the
other one is to fix a bug, I want to ask for some
advices about
which issue
would be ok, and could you give me some more
informations for
these two
issues.
I'll comment on this when JIRA is up again.
Hope this helps,
Marius
