[xwiki-devs] Automatic build for domain specific XWiki distribution
We plan to use the XWiki platform to build a domain specific Wiki solution. We have implemented wiki pages and extension that provides the domain specific functionality in XWiki. If I understood it correctly the proposed solution for installing such a domain specificy XWiki is: 1. Install XWiki (via installer or as war) 2. Import extensions via the browser interface I am looking for a possibilty to automate this procedure. Is it possible to assemble such a XWiki distribution with maven (may be with the maven assembly plugin)? Does somebody know an existing example? Are there any other possibilities? May be an installer framework integration? Thank you in advance Richard
Hi Richard, It's definitely possible. XWiki Enterprise Manager is an example of such a distribution (XE + java extensions + XAR extensions). You can check out https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-manager for the specifics. It even has functional tests over the distribution. Hope this helps, Jérôme.

Hi Jerome, Automating the build for a domain secific wiki distribution is indeed easy. I setup a maven project with packaging type war. This project has a dependency to org.xwiki.enterprise:xwiki-enterprise-web (type is war and scope is runtime). The maven war plugin overlays automatically the of my war project over the xwiki war content. Thank you for your help Richard Am 02.12.2011 09:48, schrieb Jerome Velociter:
