[xwiki-users] Migrating from 3.5 to 5.0.1 with large XAR
by Erik Engstrom 21 May '13

21 May '13

Hey all, I inherited an xwiki 3.5 installation that used hsqldb. I want to move to 5.0.1 and mysql. The new instance is up and running and I was able to export a XAR file from the old system. However the XAR file is 184MB in size so the regular import says it is too big. I tried the script here: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Large+XAR+Import But it seems the syntax has changed. I tried to replace the <% with {{groovy}} and %> with {{/groovy}} but then get a bunch of errors. Can some one point me to an upgraded version? Is there a better way to do this? Thanks, Erik

[xwiki-users] Antw: configuring url => Apache , Unauthorized
by Ingo Oellers 21 May '13

21 May '13

Hi, i have an adjacent problem with XWIKI 4.4 on Tomcat 6 and want to connect with Apache from frontend: The xwiki.war was moved to ROOT-context of Tomcat. With direct connection to Tomcat XWIKI is working fine. If i want to go over Apache with https://domain.xyz/ i receive well the startpage of XWIKI with dashboard. But if want to login i receive an URL https://domain.xyz/bin/login/XWiki/XWikiLogin?xredirect=%2Fbin%2Fview%2FMai… and the messsage 401 Unauthorized. Does somebody have a clue ? The problem is the same with xwiki.war/with ROOT-context and http instead of https.

[xwiki-users] Localization module: can we have a translation string refer to another translation string ?
by Jeremie BOUSQUET 20 May '13

20 May '13

Hi, For some quality reasons I assigned to myself, I use the following translations for my app: MailArchiveCode.LoadingSessionClass_maxMailsNb=Max number of mails to load in a session mailarchive.loadingSession.fields.maxMailsNb.label=$services.localization.render('MailArchiveCode.LoadingSessionClass_maxMailsNb') The first one has the name expected for XClass fields mapping, the second has the name I expect for a form field translation key. But as their content must be the same in my case, I refer the one from the second. But when trying to display that in a page, I use: $services.localization.render('mailarchive.loadingSession.fields.maxMailsNb.label') ... and it shows: $services.localization.render('MailArchiveCode.LoadingSessionClass_maxMailsNb') Is there a way around ? I tried to add "{{velocity}}" around the second translation value, but of course it complains about nested scripts... Thanks, Jeremie

[xwiki-users] Recommendations on writing automated functional tests for xar extensions ?
by Jeremie BOUSQUET 20 May '13

20 May '13

Hello, I would like to discuss a little on writing of Selenium2 tests, as described in test strategy [1], ie use Selenium 2 and apply Page Objects pattern. My particular use-case is that I'm on a mission : write some functional tests for my mail archive application. I also think these would be the best tests for my app, as it greatly relies on 2 external interfaces (xwiki for persistence/conf, javamail and mail accounts on another side). There are some good unit tests to write of course, but the main logic of the app has more meaning to be tested in "real life", or close to that. To do that, I decided to try and plug myself in xwiki test framework, in order to avoid redeveloping everything (such as deploying / launching an xwiki instance from the tests). I added 2 modules in my project: - xwiki-contrib-mailarchive-test-pageobjects - xwiki-contrib-mailarchive-test-ui Both inherit from org.xwiki.enterprise:xwiki-enterprise-test pom, and are greatly inspired from poms of xwiki-enterprise-test-pageobjects and xwiki-enterprise-test-ui poms. It's unfinished and untested, but I believe I'll be able to have xwiki instance installed, launched, and tests run automatically. My main question, is how should I do in order to also deploy my app in this wiki instance prior to run the tests ? For now I have several possible solutions that come to my mind, but I don't know what would be the best... : A- - grab xwiki-standalone zip version x.y.z, unzip it, launch it - make EM install my application (call some REST API ? GET some page with proper parameters ?) - run the tests B- - grab xwiki-standalone zip version x.y.z, unzip it - "patch" it in some way with my application binaries, (ie, add things directly under permanent directory / extension / repository ?) - launch it and run the tests I personnally prefer A-, but it supposes also that the xwiki instance knows any of my "dev" maven repositories (either my local repository .m2, or my local instance of Nexus), so it would mean an additional step would be to "patch" the standalone wiki xwiki.properties to add my personal repo. Or maybe I can add such repo programmatically in the wiki instance from java by looking up and using the right component ? Maybe this point has already been solved by anyone, so if you have any samples it would be good enough. I did not search exhaustively, but I don't remember having seen such use-cases on existing extensions on github. Also, I think it might be interesting to extract from all this some kind of maven archetype for functional testing of UI extension ? So contributors could just call the archetype and get everything properly prepared, and just have to add page objects and tests for their app ... WDYT ?

[xwiki-users] Include Macro not showing documents as expected
by Belkhiria Hamza Yazid 19 May '13

19 May '13

Good morning I just discovered how useful can be Include Macro :) still it only works when the document Dashboard.Webhome is included, {{include document="Dashboard.WebHome" context="new"/}} Other documents do not show up when i try. I am not sure if this is due to the Macro itself or to problems within the structure like duplicated pages/ spaces or unclear view of parents child relations Thank you, Best Regards, -- *BHY*

[xwiki-users] Vote / Favorite feature on XWiki pages ?
by Ldm Public 19 May '13

19 May '13

Hello, Is there any way (by default or with an Extension) to add a kind of "vote" on each XWiki page? Vote will be opened to signed-in users just like they put a "+1" on Facebook. Then when reading a page, a user can know if content has been appreciated. thanks for your answers, regards, PS : what I need is a simple number on each page. I agree that comments are already a way to give an opinion on a XWiki page.

The ability to Search the XWiki Extensions <http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome> is broken, it returns nothing if you try to search for an extension. Try for yourself and search for "SQL". It returns nothing! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Search-Extensions-is-broken-tp7585143.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
