Hi Marius,
thanks, I'm one step further now, at least the NameManager now does
renaming in general (it renamed itself until I added an #if clause to not
do so).
I wanted to implement it step by step so I didn't add the redirect yet.
But the sheet is not executed when editing application entries.
Meanwhile I have the following.
Test App.Code.Test AppSheet:
```
[...]
#set( $nameManRef = $services.model.createDocumentReference('', ['Test
App', 'Code'], 'Test App NameManager') )
#set( $nameMan = $xwiki.getDocument($nameManRef) )
<div class="hidden">
<input type="hidden" name="xredirect"
value="$doc.getURL('view',
"sheet=${escapetool.url($nameMan)}")" />
</div>
{{/html}}
{{/velocity}}
```
Test App.Code.Test App NameManager:
```
{{velocity}}
#if ( $doc.name != 'Test App NameManager' )
#set ($renameRequest =
$services.refactoring.createRenameRequest($doc.documentReference, 'Now
RENAMED'))
#set ($discard = $renameRequest.setAutoRedirect(false))
$services.refactoring.rename($renameRequest)).join()
#end
{{/velocity}}
```
Thanks again,
Dennis

Hi Marius,
the refactoring approach sounds great but there seems to be something I
do
wrong because the renaming doesn't work.
Maybe I misunderstood the term
"current document" but I'm not sure.
I created "Test App.Code.Test App NameManager" with the following
content:
```
{{velocity}}
#set ($renameRequest =
$services.refactoring.createRenameRequest($doc.fullName, 'Now RENAMED'))
As per
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Refactoring+Module#
HScriptService
the first parameter passed to createRenameRequest must be an
EntityReference. In your case you can pass:
* either the reference of the current document, i.e. $doc.documentReference
, if the document is terminal (its name != 'WebHome')
* or the reference of the current space, i.e. $doc.documentReference.parent
, if the document is not terminal (its name is 'WebHome')
#set ($discard =
$renameRequest.setAutoRedirect(false))
$services.refactoring.rename($renameRequest)).join()
{{/velocity}}
```
Then I put your DIV at the end of my app sheet:
```
{{velocity}}
{{html wiki="true"}}
#set ($discard = $doc.use('Test App.Code.Test AppClass'))
(% class="xform" %)
(((
[FORM CONTENT]
)))
<div class="hidden">
<input type="hidden" name="xredirect"
value="$doc.getURL('view',
"sheet=${escapetool.url('Test App.Code.Test App NameManager')}")"
/>
</div>
{{/html}}
{{/velocity}}
```
Then I opened up one of the application entries, edited it and hit "Save
and view" but the name didn't change.
I don't see any redirect in "Test App NameManager" so it's normal you
stay
on the same page, but do you have the sheet parameter in the query string?
i.e. is the "Test App NameManager" sheet executed?
Could you please tell me what I did wrong.
Thanks in advance,
Dennis

Hi Dennis,
A relatively simple solution is the following:
(1) modify the application sheet to include the following HTML at the
end:
<div class="hidden">
<input type="hidden" name="xredirect"
value="$doc.getURL('view',
'sheet=Path.To.NameManager')" />
</div>
The result is that whenever you create a new application entry or when
you
> edit an existing application entry, after you click "Save and view" you
> will be taken to the view mode with ?sheet=Path.To.NameManager in the query
string, which means the Path.To.NameManager sheet will be applied
to
the saved document.
(2) Create the Path.To.NameManager page that determines the right name
for
the current document (based on its fields) and
renames the current
document

Please help me find a sane approach before I bite the table.
