[xwiki-devs] Evaluating curriki plugins (how to)
Hi, I would like to evaluate certain plugins for my work namely (invitationmanager, currikispacemanager and spacemanager). I was going to some of the previous threads on curriki and found that we plan to migrate these plugins to xwiki core at a later date. So until these are done how can we test and evaluate these plugins. I am building xwiki directly from source and I have build the core platform and added enterprise app on top of it. One way to test is to build the curriki product itself. But since I have been working on the core app for some time and have made several extensions on top of it, I would like to continue with the same. So to test these plugins what applications or pages under xwiki\xwiki-product-curriki\wiki\src\main\resources do I need to import. I am fairly comfortable with xwiki architecture so I can do most myself, I just need to know how can I get started on this front with the three plugins.

Hi, You can actually use these plugins directly from the curriki source tree. Now there are a bit hard to use without any UI. I'm trying to find some time to work to publish a XAR of a rudimentery UI implemeting all the features of these plugins. There is some work because the current UI includes a lot of curriki specific macros that are not really usable outside of curriki. Would you like to help making this rudimentary package ?

Sure. I believe you had a discussion with my boss Mr. David Robert. We are interested in these plugins and I would provide you with all the help you want. Let me know what is needed from my side to get started with it. Thanks Sachin Ludovic Dubost-2 wrote:

Hi, Jean-Vincent is supposed to find some time this week to transform my Curriki package to an XE Panel allowing to create a space/invite users to an XE space. JV, I think you have your beta tester for this panel/package. Ludovic Sachn Mittal wrote:

Hi Sachin,

FYI, I intend to move the spacemanager to xwiki-platform-plugins and release it as 1.0 in the coming days. For now, if you already have a custom build of xwiki/XE, then just add the dependency towards it in your build, and inject/add it in the plugin list of xwiki.cfg for having your wiki "spacemanager ready". In the curriki wiki, Groups/* and Group_TemplateSpace/* contains velocity UIs for it, but as Ludovic said, it's curriki specific; however, it can help to understand how the plugin works and can be used. The use of the currikispacemanager itself won't interest you I suppose, as it's just an extension of the spacemanager adding to spaces curriki-framework related content and validation. But here also, it can be usefull as an example of how to extend the spacemanager. Regards, Jerome.

Hi, I have build the spacemanager and invitationmanager plugins and added them to the xwiki.cfg file for my core deployment. I however was not able to find the velocity files or the application where these plugins are used. Could you please point the directories or files where these plugins are used. I am building from the source so the names of these under xwiki/xwiki-product-curriki should be fine. Thanks Sachin Mittal Jerome Velociter-2 wrote:

Hi Sachin, The best place to look for is: xwiki-product-curriki/wiki/src/main/resources/Groups/* xwiki-product-curriki/wiki/src/main/resources/Groups_TemplateSpace/* xwiki-product-curriki/web/src/main/webapp/skins/curriki8/macros.vm That is because, in Curriki, the spacemanager plugin handles groups Regards, Marius

Hi, I have added the pages in the core installation and included macros.vm of curriki skin in albatross skin and also included the template file so that it does get called. Further the plugins are also added in the plugin list and jars in the classpath. I am however not able to get the included pages working as they seem to simply print the vm content instead of executing them. Let me know is there anything else needs to be included or done to evaluate these pages. Thanks Sachin Marius Dumitru Florea wrote:

Hi Jerome, I recently saw that spacemanager plugin has been moved to platform from curriki. As you mention that currikispacemanger is specific to curriki itself and is simply an extension of spacemanager, so I guess evaluating spacemanager plugin would be sufficient. Further could you please tell me the difference between invitationmanager and spacemanager. I see that invitationmanager is still in curriki package. Do we plan to move this also to platform. Next I have not been able to test the spacemanager plugin as per your notes. I have mentioned the results in this same thread. Now since spacemanager is moved to platform, is there any other way of evaluating this plugin. Thanks Sachin Jerome Velociter-2 wrote:
