[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Extend the XML-RPC API

Hi, XWiki has evolved a lot in the past year and new client apps were created. Our current Xml-Rpc API is aligned to the Confluence 1.0 API specification and hasn't been really enriched in a long time. Since we have some distinct features like 'polyglot wiki' I propose to create a new "xwiki2" method set to handle XWiki 2.0 method calls. The new handler will be added to the Apache Xml-Rpc servlet properties file. Proposed new xml-rpc methods(mostly needed for XEclipse, XOffice and XOO): - parseFromHtml(String html, String syntax) : String - render(String source, String syntaxId) : String - cleanHtml(String dirtyHtml) : String - add class ( http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3499 ) - getConfiguredSyntaxes - getVirtualWikisNames - getMacros, etc. Proposed Xml-Rpc model extensions: - Page - syntaxId; - ServerInfo/Wiki: - isMultiWiki - defaultSyntax - encoding WDYT? Thanks, Florin Ciubotaru
