[xwiki-devs] ExtendedTodo Application v1.2
i've submitted a new version of the ExtendedTodo Application, but i'm not sure how to update the download page, can some dev please do it? changelog (from v1.0): * compatibility with XE 1.8 * limited the 'done' and 'dropped' lists (to 10 todos) * panel looks better in Opera * less dummy todos * xapp entry Cheers
Hey, That's great! What you have to do to add a new version of an application is: - Edit the download page with the object editor (ExtendedTodoApplicationDownloads for your application) - Add an object of class "XWiki.DownloadItemClass" and fill it with the infos for the new version (here "1.2" as version + your release notes) - Make that object point to the proper download URL (the XAR can be attached to the page, just make sure you don't erase previous ones, so include the version in the file name) - Edit the existing object of class "XWiki.DownloadClass" so that it point to the latest version (so you have to say here "1.2", as well) ... click "save and view", that should be it, your new version should now appear on the download page, while links to previous ones remain accessible. What would be really great if you have time and will to do is that you share your experience and write a short tutorial on how to contribute an application in the code zone (Not something big, just the essentials: guidelines for a first timer that want to contribute an application + guidelines for managing versions afterwards). You can start it in the Drafts/ space on dev.xwiki.org http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/ and we'll publish it for example in the contributing section of dev.xwiki.org when ready.

wow, thanks! although i had to manipulate the url manually, i think it'd have been more practical (obvious?) if i had the choice to switch to the object editor from xwiki's interface, imo..

Cheers, Jerome.

hint: you can switch to "advance user" mode to get this choice ;) See http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/PageEditing#HAdvancedMode Jerome

heh, that completely slipped my mind, my first assumption was that there's some kind of restriction on page editing xD oh well, i stand corrected, i'll make sure to mention this in the tutorial
We should definitively make it simpler to publish a new application and a new download version. It shouldn't be too complicated to script these steps. Ludovic M Rawash a écrit :
