Hi Nithya, As Sergiu rightly said, an XWiki user is just another document/Page with a XWiki.XWikiUser object associated to it. Hope the following example helps you in creating users using XMLRPC. Please note that I have only been able to create a user. "Setting" the password is something I did not have much luck with. Probably, the XMLRPC API method to set the "password" property stores the password in plain text when in fact XWiki expects passwords which are "hashed". I hope someone on the mailing list could help by providing the code snippet to update password using XMLRPC. Once, that is done, we can save this example at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XMLRPCJavaExamples ======================================================================== import java.net.MalformedURLException; import org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcException; import org.codehaus.swizzle.confluence.Page; import org.xwiki.xmlrpc.XWikiXmlRpcClient; import org.xwiki.xmlrpc.model.XWikiObject; public class CreateUser { public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, XmlRpcException { //URL of the xwiki instance String url = "http://localhost:8080/xwiki/xmlrpc/confluence"; //Replace user & pass with desired xwiki username & password String user = "Admin"; String pass = "admin"; XWikiXmlRpcClient rpc = new XWikiXmlRpcClient(url); try { //Perform Login & Authentication rpc.login(user, pass); //Create a Page to hold the user profile & set it's three important attributes viz.

A user is just like any other document+object. Just do what's usually done for creating a new document and adding a XWiki.XWikiUsers object.

[xwiki-users] How to add/ register a new user in xwiki through xmlrpc??

Hi Nithya, Looks like in your example you are using Apache XMLRPC directly. In the example that I provided I have used the client side proxy for Java which is much easier and less verbose than the other method. Please run this example and let me know if it works out for you... I am quite interested in finding out if it works...thanks. > ------------------------------ > > Message: 2 > Date: Sun, 7 Mar 2010 21:33:32 +0530 > From: "Dilipkumar Jadhav" <jadhav.dilipkumar(a)gmail.com> > Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Creating user using XML RPC.... > To: <users(a)xwiki.org> > Message-ID: <4b93ce62.5744f10a.750e.0934(a)mx.google.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > Hi Nithya, > As Sergiu rightly said, an XWiki user is just another document/Page with a > XWiki.XWikiUser object associated to it. > Hope the following example helps you in creating users using XMLRPC. > Please note that I have only been able to create a user.

[xwiki-users] Livetable macro, custom classes, sorting
by Hans-Peter Zorn 07 Mar '10

07 Mar '10

Hi, I am using xwiki 2.1.1 and i am having problem with livetable and a simple custom class. Here is my code: #set($collist = ["Customer", "Responsible", "TargetDate", "Activities", "priority", "_actions"]) #set($colprops = { "Customer" : { "type" : "text" , "size" : 20, "link" : "edit"}, "Responsible" : { "type" : "list" , "class": "XWiki.XWikiUsers"}, "TargetDate": { "type" : "date" ,"sortable":"true", "displayName":"Target Date"}, "Activities" : { "type" : "text" }, "priority": {"type": "number" }, "_actions" : {"actions": ["copy","delete","rename","inline"]} }) #set($options = { "className":"Task.TasksClass", "rowCount": 15 }) #livetable("alldocs" $collist $colprops $options) It displays three documents, but as soon as I click on one of the other columns to sort the table, it gets empty. For the allDocumentsSnippet it works. I have no carriage returns or quotes in the fields that are to be displayed. I tried with different options and also only two fields (customer and priority): the same happens. Is this a known bug or did I misunderstand the livetable macro? Thanks, Hans-Peter

[xwiki-users] Is there a way to dynamically change the values on a static list or on any other property of a xwiki class?
by Abel Solórzano Astorga 06 Mar '10

06 Mar '10

Hi everybody, Is there a way to dynamically (through groovy code) change the values on a static list or on any other property of a xwiki class? I am using *field = document.getxWikiClass().get("propertyName")* to get the property. document is of type* com.xpn.xwiki.api.Document*. But when I try to change the value using * field.getPropertyClass().setValues("val1|val2|val3")* I get a *null* value from* field.getPropertyClass()* I am following the information on http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg10692.html I am using groovy on xwiki 2.0.2.24645 Regards Abel

[xwiki-users] Lucene Searching with "object:" keyword does not show expected results
by Jeremie BOUSQUET 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

Hi, With XE 2.2.1, I think I have some issues retrieving expected results from Lucene search, using "object:" term. For example, if I want to search for comments containing "test", I would enter as search term in Main.LuceneSearch: test AND object:XWiki.XWikiComments This returns no result in my case. But then if I use Luke to browse the Lucene index in $TOMCAT_HOME/work/Catalina/localhost/xwiki/lucene, I can find at least 5 documents for which field "XWiki.XWikiComments.comment" matches with "test". I believe that Main.LuceneSearch should return exactly the same result, and not an empty set ? Another use-case, if my search term is only "object:XWiki.XWikiComments", page retrieves only 2 results. There are far more comments in my wiki of course ... Am I missing something ? Best regards, Jeremie

[xwiki-users] Questions about XWiki
by Simon Brandhof 05 Mar '10

05 Mar '10

Hi, We're evaluating XWiki for a project of collaborative portal. Just to explain the needs in a few points : - users can create and update pages (sometimes it's good to remind basics ;-) - a page is structured in fields. Fields are predefined in templates. The vocabulary for xwiki seems to be classes (templates) and objects (pages) - a page can be translated. - a page can be tagged We started the development of a proof of concept, based on the version Enterprise 2.2.27100. I was impressed by built-in translated pages and the way to develop applications. But two blocker points have now to be fixed : - the search engine does not process page tags. Some threads on the mailing-list address this question but I can't find a real solution. - objects can not be translated (see XWIKI-69<http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-69>). In my words a page can not be translated if it uses a template. Using conditions in macros is not a good workaround for end-users. Is there another way to implement this feature ? Do you have any recommendations ? Your help would be much appreciated. Thank you, Simon Brandhof Sonar - http://www.sonarsource.com ---
