[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Add a children section in page footer

Hi devs, There are 4 votes required, see bellow. 1/ UI. See the screenshot at http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Mockups/Children Note that this list comes along with a generic way of building spaces/pages/attachment/comments lists (ul) in our skin files. Here's my +1 2/ Add a getChildren() method to XWikiDocument and Document (API). Rationale: XWiki is a wiki and the parent/child relationship should be made more visible and easy to display in order to make it useful. I know we should try not to put new methods in our APIs but IMHO this should have been there from the beginning. Proposal: {{code}} Document.java public List<String> getChildren() throws XWikiException { return this.doc.getChildren(getXWikiContext()); } XWikiDocument.java public List<String> getChildren(XWikiContext context) throws XWikiException { String hql ="select doc.fullName from XWikiDocument doc " + "where doc.parent='" + getFullName() + "' order by doc.space, doc.name"; return context.getWiki().search(hql, context); } {{/code}} Note: I've put doc.space and doc.name in the order by clause since getting pages in the 'absolute' alphabetical order afterwards is easy using util.sort while the contrary is not true. Here's my +1 3/ Add a $blacklistedSpaces list in xwikivars.vm. Rationale: avoid duplicates; this list is already present in some panels and pages since it is a common need. Proposal: #set($blacklistedSpaces = ["Import", "Panels", "Scheduler", "Stats", "XAppClasses", "XAppSheets", "XAppTemplates", "XWiki"]) Here's my +1 4/ Don't display the number of children in tab. Rationale: limit the number of HQL queries made on the view action. Here's my +1 Thanks, JV.
