I was wondering what
is the purpose of the XWD_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE field in the xwikidoc
table.
I tried entering a
document name (e.g. test.template) assuming that when I created new documents in
the same space (in this case "test") XWiki would include "test.template"
document. I did not to my dismay.
The reason I am
asking this question is because I am currently analysing the architecture for an
"artifact manager" application for XWiki. Having a default template
functionality applicable per web space would be one less function to implement
for me.
====
The Artifact Manager
would enable the support for things like Product & Feature Management with
management rights per web space (i.e. Product Web Space, Feature Web Space).
This is my target first step but the Artifact Manager could be extended to
include Bugs (i.e. non-compliance) & Use Cases Management for
example.
I also intend to
implement categorisation functionality applicable per Web Space; this
functionality is useful for managing a user-friendly navigation through a Web
Space.
Anybody interested
in this work, let me know.
