Does anyone have a more extensive Wiki plug-in example? I'm needing to do an LDAP directory application, and I'm lazy, so I don't want to do the whole UI. So I figure I can create an LDAP search plug-in that does: $results = $xwiki.ldapsearch.search("ldap://ldap.example.com:389/o=Top??sub?(cn=${text} )") Foreach ($result in $results) $record = $xwiki.ldapsearch.get($result) {$record.get("cn")} End . or something like that - anyhow. The idea is to create a list of names, phone numbers, etc. that match the search criteria. Unfortunately, the example "hello world" plug-in does not show off a collection, so if anyone has any pointers, I'd like to hear them. Of course, if anyone has already done this, I'd definitely like to hear that too.

Query classes for common property = get value; Variable sort

by e Box

If you can, please help me with this XWiki query. The languages in XWiki are ALL new to me: Java, SQL, Velocity, Hibernate, etc. The complete page code is at the end, for reference. GENERAL APPLICATION GOAL To dynamically sort XWiki content through navigation by custom "categories" (slightly similar to XWiki's News/Blog/Articles classification model). THE PROBLEM Construct a query for a page where: - Class name must begin with "XYZ" (e.g., "XYZ.PROClass") - all ClassTemplates are excluded - there is a common class property called "category" (which does NOT exist for ALL "XYZ*" Classes) which is equivalent to the value of a temporary variable "category1" obtained from the current URL (i.e., getParameter from a URL Get posted by the previous page) - results are sortable by standard document properties (and eventually, also sort by custom Class properties, too) CURRENT QUERY ATTEMPT sql=(", BaseObject as obj where obj.name=doc.fullName and obj.className like 'XYZ%' and obj.name not like '%ClassTemplate' and obj.category like '${category1}' order by '${mrsorter}'"); TROUBLESHOOTING The present query, upon repeatedly splicing it, is apparently not working for either of these components: * obj.category like '${category1}' - returns page error: "java.lang.ClassCastException" * order by '${mrsorter}' - returns page error: "com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 3223 in 3: Exception while searching documents with sql ,BaseObject as obj where obj.name=doc.fullName and obj.className like 'XYZ%' order by 'doc.name' Wrapped Exception: could not execute query " ABOUT XYZ* CLASSES & CATEGORY PROPERTY Right now, in my XWiki there exists one "XYZ*" custom class (as a document template) which contains a property called "category" among other XYZ* classes which do not. The goal is to add more classes with names beginning with "XYZ*" that this query will need to explore in order to find matching "category" property results. I modeled the category property after the classification system in XWiki's Blog/ArticleClass, such that: Name: category Pretty Name: Category Unmodifiable: No Number: 2 Display Type: select Multiple Select: Yes Relational Storage: Yes Size: 5 Hibernate Query: select prop.value from BaseObject as obj, StringProperty as prop where obj.className='XYZ.Catsv02Class' and prop.id.id = obj.id and prop.id.name='name' FYI, XYZ.Catsv02Class exists as the class of all categories for content. When context= inline, I need a select list of these (similar to editing an XWiki Article) - but I can't get one to display on the page. But that's another story ... back to the query! COMPLETE PAGE CODE <% title1=request.getParameter("title"); category1=request.getParameter("category"); if (!title1) { title1 = "Unspecified" } if (!category1) { category1 = "Unspecified" } mrsorter=request.getParameter("orderby"); if(!mrsorter) { #set ($mrsorter = "doc.name") mrsorter = xwikidocument.getName(); } sql=(", BaseObject as obj where obj.name=doc.fullName and obj.className like 'XYZ%' and obj.name <> '%ClassTemplate' and obj.category like '${category1}' order by '${mrsorter}'"); %> [XYZ Home>XYZ.nav] : [${title1}>XYZ.subnav] : 1 ${category1} <br> Sort by: [Document No.>XYZ.catdoc?category=&orderby=doc.name] / [Date>XYZ.catdoc?category=&orderby=doc.date] / [Title>XYZ.catdoc?category=&orderby=doc.title] [+ Add New>apps.AddNew?category=${category1}] <% def formatdate(arg) { rd=arg.toString() a=rd.split(" "); return a[0] } println "1.1 Controlled Documentation"; println "<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=12>"; println "<tr> <td>*Title*</td> <td>*Document No.*</td> <td>*Version*</td> <td>*Released*</td> <td>*<nobr>Previous No.</nobr>*</td> </tr>"; for (item in xwiki.searchDocuments(sql)) { d=xwiki.getDocument(item) rd=xwiki.formatDate(d.date,"MM/dd/yyyy") println "<tr><td>[${d.title}>${d.fullName}]</td><td><nobr>${d.name}</nobr></td><td>${d.version}</td><td>${rd}</td><td>${d.orig_doc_no}</td> </tr>"; } println "</table>"; %> END PAGE CODE I would greatly appreciate any assistance you are able to provide.

Session not maintained on Internet Explorer

by chandra.verma＠headstrong.com

Hi, I am trying to install XWiki on my company�s intranet for online project management. I am having trouble using Internet Explorer with XWiki. When I login as a user, I can see my name on the top right hand corner and I can also see the all the admin options on the top action bar (I have admin privileges), which means that I have Logged in successfully. But as soon as I click on a link, the page refreshes and I find that I am logged out. All the admin options are gone. This happens for all the links On further investigation I found that this problem occurs only when I use a url of following type- http://machineName:8080/xwiki If I use following url, it works fine http://localhost:8080/xwiki I found that a cookie gets created in �C:\Documents and Settings\userName\Cookies� when I use localhost, but there is no cookie for the machineName. So when the application finds that there is no cookie, it thinks that user is not logged in, and shows default pages. The interesting thing is that it works fine with Firefox/Mozilla. Since most of our users use Internet Explorer, I am trying hard to get it working but till now I have no clue how to fix this problem. I have enabled all the cookies, kept the intranet security at lowest level and bypassed the proxy, still it�s not working. I have also selected �NO� for the preferences �Always authenticate on viewing� and �Always authenticate on editing�. I tried searching on the internet but it seems no one else has faced this problem earlier. Please suggest a solution. My environment is � XWiki 0.9.840 Windows XP SP2 Tomcat 4.1.31 MySQL 4.1.19 JDK 1.5 Looking forward for your help. Thanks, Chandra

UTF-8 couldn't work either, both in reading and writing. Could anyone tell me what to do? Thanks.

Choosing final projects for the Summer of Code

by ludovic＠xwiki.com

Hi, Google just gave the tentative allocation for project. It turns out we will get 4 projects. I hoped for more put given the 626 students allocated (this is already 3M$ by Google) and the 105 Open Source organisation participation, this is kind of normal. We will have to make some tough choices. The current list I created was: User Interface (Implement the ergonomic study) P2P (allow offline usage and P2P XWiki hosting) AJAX API, Toolbar and Form Editor (it can be one of them or all) AntiSpam features JCR backend Editor Completion GData backend We would have to choose 4 and order the last 3 (in case we get additional projects at the last minute). Go ahead and give your opinion before tonight since we have to give the final answer before tomorrow morning pacific time. Ludovic

Renaming docs

by THOMAS, BRIAN M (SBCSI)

There have been a number of questions about renaming documents in XWiki, and the usual answer has been that you can't. There is, however, a method, com.xpn.xwiki.doc.XWikiDocument.rename(String, XWikiContext) that purports to do exactly this, and from the source, it looks like it does the correct stuff, cloning itself, updating any objects it contains to refer to the new document name, etc. The only problem with this method is that, in my case, I haven't been able to make it work. In one case, it returned, as advertised, a Document with the new name to my page, but the document remained intact under its original name and not under the new one. Since that time, after which I restarted the server, it only returns null. Due to problems with CGLIB-generated class files, I can't set a breakpoint to find out why (anyone know the magic to make CGLIB create line-number entries?). A few details: the actual problem I'm trying to solve is scripting the change of existing login IDs to integrate with an enterprise-wide authentication service, which requires a company-standard naming scheme. My change to the security scheme was limited to subclassing XWikiAuthServiceImpl and overriding only the default constructor (to instantiate the auth service client library) and the checkPassword method. Since XWiki's default implementation of a user ID is the user's profile, named XWiki.<username>, that will entail changing a document name and all wiki references to it. My first plan was a transitional scheme that involved using XWiki.copyDocument() to create the new document, leaving the original document in place for the default XWikiAuthServiceImpl to use, replacing its content with a notice of the change and removing the user's edit right, then removing it and changing all wiki references to it the first time they log in under the new scheme. Alternatively, using XWiki.createUser to create the new user was a possibility, but it looks messier from the standpoint of migrating the original user's profile page. So, a couple of questions, for discussion and/or authoritative answer: - Does XWikiDocument.rename() actually work as advertised? I am aware of the need for the "programming" right on the original document to use the necessary methods (on the space or the wiki doesn't do it), and have made sure that I have them by checking with checkProgrammingRights. - What's the best way to change an existing user's login ID without disruption beyond having to use the new name? - XWiki provides reasonable ways to find all of the kinds of document references that I can think of, including object string fields(especially group membership and rights objects) and wiki links; are there any others I will need to consider? - Does the XWikiAdmin identity (or the XWikiAdminGroup, for that matter) have any implementation outside the database? I notice that XWikiAdmin's profile document is not named XWikiAdmin, so something is not the same about it. The reason I need to know is that it won't work under the new authentication service's naming rules, and I want to eliminate it for other reasons too (mostly that it's a shared ID) and replace all of its rights entries with a group entry for XWikiAdminGroup. Primarily, I need to know whether there's any reason this strategy won't work, because re-implementing it would constitute an access backdoor. Brian M.
