Calling a page containing a script basically is the same principle
than a PHP page. The idea is to send a call a wiki page exactly like
it would be when you use a <form> in a page. So it's more a GET or
POST request.
The simplest possible way to cover you use case is to call in a
browser something like
http://host/xwiki/bin/get/Space/MyService?targetdocument=wiki:Space.Documen…
"get" action execute the page like "view" would do but without any UI
around so that there is really only you script and nothing else.
In you script you get the document to append and the content to add
using $request.targetdocument and $request.content. Then it's up to
you to define how your script indicate if there is an error or
something like printing OK or KO etc... that part is totally free
form.
There is a project to make possible to write a REST resource in a page
like you can do currently in java but no idea when.

Hi Thomas,
Thank you for the heads up.
To make the wiki portable, I think I will go with the velocity script.
Should I still be using HTTP PUT (Rest) to the page in this case? I have a
few small binary attachments to go along with the update. If not, how should
I communicate to the custom page? Hi guys,
I need to update wiki pages with minimum amount of data transferred
across
the network.
Current approachs I've tried are are Rest and XmlRpc but they require me
to
download the entire wiki page before I can update
it.
Can anyone suggest how I can eliminate the download (it is slow and the
3G
coverage is not stable where my users are) and
just simply append to the
top/bottom of the Wiki page directly?
Any help/advice is deeply appreciated, thank you!
I don't think there is any API to do that by default but you can
easily add one on your wiki.
The cleanest answer would probably be to add a REST resource on you
server and use it from your client, see
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI#HCustomre…
.
A quicker way would be a to write a velocity script in a page
responsible to append a provided String in a provided document. See
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/.
Thank you for helping me, I will put up whatever I have done into the
Extensions once I get it working. :)
