[xwiki-users] Your feedbacks on a possible MailArchive application

by jerem

Hello xwiki community ! Since a long time, I work on a MailArchive application, and try to find time to post it to the community ... It's used in my team and is satisfying, but as I'm working on it currently I think it's time to unveil what to expect from it, and have your feedbacks before I (eventually) post a first version ... What's implemented so far : - "eats" mails from specified mail server / account / folder - creates Mails and Topics pages and objects in wiki. Algorithm for topics tries to be "hijack-proof" ;) - Custom Livetable and timeline view for archive, table/threads/forum views for topics - persists main parts of mails (html content, main headers, attachments, attached mails, images, detects encrypted mails), with a clean display - configurable mailing-lists (independant of mail server) upon pattern matching, with auto-tagging of created pages - statistics page (top posters, ...) What I would like to implement before first release : - reply button and sheet - configurable auto-typing of mails (for example, Mail/Newsletter/Annoucement ...) (it already exists but it's hard-coded ...) - test it with other server than exchange (ie gmail at least) - configurable ldap integration : auto-creation of mail users from ldap (by matching emails). Already implemented but not inside the app itself. It's a very cool feature for enterprise level mailing-lists. Real users are also automatically assigned as mails/topics authors/creators in wiki pages, as well as mail dates. - remove everything that's hard-coded and dependent of our usage - put more simply, make it generic. What I expect to add in next releases : - multi-mail-server configuration - improve admin pages - ratings - for now it dumps mails from a folder, meaning it does not act as a mail server by itself. This means that some common features are not available (validation of mails ...). For now it's more a simple dumped "clone" of a mailing-list, but it does not interact with users / mails. Some open questions / remarks: - considering last point, I don't know how mailing-lists and mailing-lists archives do work (ie xwiki-users and robot, nabble ...), so I don't really know how I could implement such features inside xwiki, or even if it would be something useful for users ... For now the whole application is a XAR and I don't want to bring too much complexity to it. Anyway I'd like to keep both functionality. - for "reply" feature, I assume to use the global mail server configuration parameters of the wiki, and the email from connected xwiki user profile ("from"). To simplify I would ask user for his password when he clicks on "send" (and the form is valid), because depending on mail server configured, you might need to be authentified to send a mail. There could be an option to use or not the xwiki login for credentials. I don't know what 'd be the better for this ... Maybe I should add specific configuration for outgoing mail server in mail archive app ? Of course with a "real" mailing-list (with a robot), you don't have this kind of problem as I believe it acts as a mail server itself (kind of proxy). Feel free to comment, manifest your enthusiasm (or your un-interest :) ) ...

[xwiki-users] No debian /stable packages yet?

by Matt Hammond

Hi, congratulations on the 3.3 release! I'm having a go with setting up xwiki on a debian based server. The /stable releases source list appears to be empty. Should I be using /releases instead, or will the 3.3 release be pushed to /stable shortly? regards Matt

[xwiki-users] Extending XWiki collaboration toolset

by coldserenity

Hello, Since XWiki is positioned as a collaboration tool, where collaboration is primarily on the documents, sooner or later there will emerge a need to provide functionality similar to what Google Docs has: simultaneous editing of documents, supporting text documents, spreadsheets (with ability to generate charts, calculating subtotals), presentations, embedding spreadsheet tables and charts into documents etc. - at least several times I found myself in a need to do manual table-based calculations and to simultaneously work on the document. One more possible improvement is support rich brainstorming sessions like in e.g. http://incubator.apache.org/projects/wave.html (integration?) So I was wondering, are there any plans for those directions?

[xwiki-users] Relative Heading Levels for INCLUDE

Heading levels can be off when a big document (PDF) is composed of many included topics. Is ther a way to adjust the level of headings in the included topic?

[xwiki-users] Polls Application installation with Extension Manager issue

by coldserenity

Hello, Recently I've tried installing Polls Application ( http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Polls+Application ) via Extension Manager and received error listed in the file attached: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7130006/InstallPollsExtensionError.… InstallPollsExtensionError.txt . The odd thing is the success message in the end of the file (I have added info and error macro markup to show how it looked like on the screen). Polls Application pages got created and I was able to create polls. With bugs but they worked. Questions: * Is the error during installation of the application important one or should be ignored? * I had to manually configure the l18n bundle after the installation - should I log an enhancement for EM to auto-configure it during installation? * Should I log any bugs I observe in Polls Application (and where to)?

[xwiki-users] styling PDF and ODT export

by petskratt

I have been trying to apply styles to PDF (and hopefully also ODT) export according to instructions in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Configuration#HCustomiz… but... (1) adding CSS (either as pdf.css or via PDFClass & PDFTemplate method) that contains simple test (h1, h2, h3 {color: red;}) does not work (tested on XE 3.3 release) (2) at the same time, changing xhtmlxsl (either by adding to PDFTemplate or WEB-INF/classes) works nicely Q1: Should it work with CSS? The abovementioned instruction expects this method to work also with RTF export - and as the ODT export is based on PDF export I hoped to be able to style also ODT... but even when change is working in PDF headings remain black in RTF and ODT export... as these XSL transforms seemt to be related to FOP used for PDF generation. Q2: How to style ODT export? Also with pdf.css (that doesn't currently work), somehow modifying default template used by OpenOffice or somehow with OpenOffice.xsl? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/styling-PDF-and-ODT-export-tp7116069p7116… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Large XAR Import: Suppress "Imported from XAR" history entry when importing as backup?

by Reto Hotz

Hi, We use Large XAR Import (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Large+XAR+Import) to migrate from one database to another. With options: "Import all" and "Overwrite with version" This works all fine, but I noticed that on every imported page, there is a new history entry "Imported from XAR" and also the last modification date of the imported page is set to the import date. Is there a way to suppress these history entry and the last modification date? So that the imported page (including history) looks exactly as it did on the other system, where it was exported? Thanks. Reto

[xwiki-users] Tomcat and /xwiki path

by Haru Mamburu

Hi, All Recently I had to deploy XWiki under Centos. As a brand new task for me it required tonns of documentation to dig in. Finally I managed to set up: Centos + MySQL + Tomcat 7 + nginx. Everything is fine besides some Tomcat's behaviour. - localhost:8080 or localhost:8080/ shows ROOT application - localhost:8080/xwiki shows XWiki application as desired. Fine. - if nginx redirects required requests from 80 port to localhost:8080/xwiki we obtain wrong links, because /xwiki automatically is added to requested string. Works fine only first request to e.g. "mydomain.com". So, next step is to set XWiki application as DAFAULT application in Tomcat, so localhost:8080 will call XWiki by default. Googling gave me several complicated solutions with redirect and two almost clear solutions with Tomcat configuration: - Deploy XWiki in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT After this nginx can easily proxy all requests like "mydomain.com" on 80 port to localhost:8080 - Deploy XWiki in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/xwiki Then add Following string in Host section in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml : <Context path="" docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/xwiki"/> I tried second way, it works fine, nginx redirects all "mydomain.com" requests to localhost:8080 correctly, BUT all URLs from required, e.g, localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main become localhost:8080/bin/view/Main So, we miss /xwiki in URL. As for me, "xwikiless" URLs solution looks fine, BUT as far as I remember, somebody from developers' team pointed out in mailing lists some time ago, that /xwiki in URL could be necessary in some cases. (??) The questions are: 1. Is it crucial for XWiki and/or some XWiki applications to eat shorten URL on Tomcat's level? Will it affect, for example, on virtual wiki mapping for URLs based addresses like http://myfarm.net/xwiki/wiki/wikiname/? 2. Should we change anything in XWiki configuration files to force it working with such URLs? OR, the best way to put ${catalina.home}/webapps/ROOT/Web-inf/web.xml with redirect information as it is done e.g. in standalone XWiki for Windows? From other side, I also found an opinions on forums, that redirect method is not the best solution for search engines robots. So, I got lost a bit :-) Kindly ask you to clarify this tricky subject in order to avoid unnecessary errors in the future. On finding right, community approved solution(s), I will amend documentation accordingly. Thanks in advance, Dmitry Bakbardin
