Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on a feature that should allow users to define
custom notification types in XWiki only through the definition of an
XObject (link to the issue :
https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-14119).
In this context, I wanted to know your thoughts about what properties
should be proposed by this XObject.
Currently, here is my proposition :
- The application name (applicationName) : the event application name
- A unique ID for the event (eventId)
What does it mean? If the ID is unique, it must be computed every time an
event is created and it's not the job of the event descriptor to generate
this.
This event ID is used to uniquely identify an event type (I should maybe
rename it to eventTypeID in order to avoid some confusion), but the idea
of generating this ID automatically is very interesting !
You already have another field with the event type so I still don't
see what this eventid field is about.

Should be optional IMO and most of the time the class should be the
document in which the event type descriptor it's stored like I
explained in my example.

What do you mean exactly by "template" ? A reference to a template,
the actual wiki content that will do the display ?
To summarize, a custom notification is triggered if the following
expression is fully satisfied :
«The (eventType) has been triggered on a document having (objectType) in
his XObjects and the (validationExpression) is true in the current
context».
What do you think ?
