Hi, The easiest to get you started is that you follow the FAQ tutorial, part of the Developer Guide (http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/) ay: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial Hope it helps, -Vincent On Apr 19, 2011, at 6:09 AM, <[email protected]> <[email protected]> wrote:
Hi
I'm looking to use XWiki to build a simple metadata are repository for reports. Basically each page will have the definition of reports I am building, and for fields within that report.
* Since the same fields will usually appear on multiple reports, I'm wanting to just write each field definition once.
* On previous systems (using ASP), I'd defined the fields in a database, then used the scripting language to construct the page dynamically - showing definitions for all fields I'd associated with that report.
Is there a (simple) way to do something equivalent in XWiki? So far I've used it for writing support notes but have never tried building anything dynamic till now. I've read through the XWiki documentation but truth is that I really don't know where to start. Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.
