Hi everybody,
I will try to go forward in committing REST API improvements made by
Ludovic and me.
Looking at the discussion about the pull request I opened
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/pull/68
Thomas pointed out the fact that it brings
"xwiki-platform-wiki-manager-api" as a dependency in XE, and this
might require a vote.
xwiki-platform-wiki-manager-api is something that was bundled only in
XEM and not in XE.
I added it as a dependency because I use its code for performing wiki
creation and XAR importing.
Thomas' comment is here:
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/pull/68#discussion_r1335333
So the vote is about the bundling of xwiki-platform-wiki-manager-api
in XE for merging this pull request.
I am +1, of course.
-1 ATM until convinced otherwise. This would be a mess. Our goal is to do the opposite and
remove dependencies not create new ones :)
Each module should bring its own REST resources so the wiki creation REST resource should
go in wiki-manager-api or in a new wiki-manager-rest module.
Same for XAR importing. There should one XAR importing REST API that works without
wiki-manager-api (just using oldcore's Packager) and possibily another one in
wiki-manager-api which may extend the simpler one (or create a new one altogether) for
importing in several wikis.
Thanks
