You can take a look at how I added the 'match' column parameter
recently
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/aad969f6e51299d3f684b86101aa…
.
Hope this helps,
Marius

Ah, ok, now I understand (I hope) :)
Indeed the livetable macro is in that place, but this is because the flamingo skin
overrides some of the macros;
the "original" is actually here:
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwi…
I guess both macros should be updated, as other skins will use the version in
xwiki-platform-web by default.
(Btw, as the variant in the flamingo skin seems to be there to stay, I wonder if one
wants to split that file
into two parts, one containing the macros overwritten in the flamingo-skin, and the other
one containing the common ones.
Or is this considered an "API breakage" ?)
Anyway, when adding a "dateformat" to one of the $columnsProperties it might be
still some way to go to get this working ...
I just tried to track this down, and ended up with the following (any better idea how to
do it?)
- the livetable macro does not really render much stuff by itself, but delegates most to
the AJAX call
You can see that in the <script> part, where a JavaScript at the end of the macro,
where
the function startup() creates a JavaScript object : XWiki.widgets.LiveTable that
does the actual loading
- just in case you wonder how this triggers the Ajax call, this JavaScript class in turn
is in the file
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwi…
but I guess that does not need to be touched. (at least)
- instead you can see how the AJAX-request parameters are put together in the #livetable
macro in
#set ($parameters = {
'outputSyntax': 'plain',
'transprefix': $transprefix,
'classname': $classname,
'collist': $stringtool.join($dataColumns, ','),
'queryFilters': $queryFilters
})
You can see these parameters are send via Ajax if you check your browsers network tab.
So this would be the place to add more parameters.
However as you might see there are no column-specific parameters, only
"global" ones. So you need to invent a schema to pass these "parameters for
columns" in, too.
Maybe it might be easier to try to send a "global" dateformat, at least for a
first try? (I.e. "globally" used for all entries in the current livetable)
Anyway, these parameters are then send to the XWiki.LiveTableResults :
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwi…
which in turn delegate most of the work into the XWiki.LiveTableResultsMarco
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwi…
there the call chain in the velocity macros is:
gridresultwithfilter -> calls gridresultwithfilter_buildJSON ->
gridresult_buildRowsJSON -> gridresult_buildRowJSON
In the latter one you find the code which creates the (already formatted)
doc.creationDate (already formatted, because "Date" is no JSON data type that
can be passed around, and also formatting Dates in JavaScript + Timezone issues =
Desperation IMO)
It is somewhere:
#set($discard = $row.put('doc_date', $xwiki.formatDate($translatedDoc.date)))
....
#set($discard = $row.put('doc_creationDate',
$xwiki.formatDate($translatedDoc.creationDate)))
Then this macro, for custom class property date columns, delegates to
gridresult_buildColumnJSON, which just called the "display" for that class
property and I guess that will ignore any attempts to change date formatting.
It looks like after putting the date format into the request you would have to read the
format from the request in XWiki.LiveTableResults and pass it around through all the
macros ...
Yes I know that format_date parameter doesn't
exist for the moment :-), I wanted to improve livetable macro (with pull request at the
end I hope). I think I find where this macro
is:https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/…
1261
#macro(livetable $divid $collist $colprops $options)
I saw the "Modify the JSON data ..." solution but afraid about "...since
it would slow down your wiki a lot as it loads Doc"Thxs
That "slow down your wiki" comment is only about the action happening in that
specific example, because it loads a document for every element in the result set into
memory.
If you do something with the data already loaded I think it should not be too
inefficient.
Personally I still think this is the way to go ...

http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users Thxs a lot to explained me with clarity all of
that and help me to understand better XWiki.
Then with what you give me, I tried to add a format_date parameter () (or regexp) in
columns properties to improve livetable.
I failed because I didn't manage to find where is store livetable macro :-))
Something like this and next add a format date parameter in user index customizer.
#set($columns = ["_avatar", "first_name", "last_name",
"email", "doc.creationDate", "_actions"])
#set($columnsProperties = {
"_avatar" : { "type" : "none", "link" :
"none", "html" : "true", "sortable":false },
"first_name" : { "type" : "text" , "size" :
20, "link" : "view"},
"last_name" : { "type" : "text", "link" :
"view"},
"email" : { "type" : "text" },
"doc.creationDate" : { "type" : "date",
"dateformat":"YYYY-mm" }
})
I am afraid that this does not work.
The supported options are documented here:
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Livetable+Macro
and a 'dateformat' option is unfortunately not part of it.
The problem is that in the end the #livetable macro turns out to make an AJAX call
to the code at the page XWiki.LiveTableResults , which in turn uses the
XWiki.LiveTableResultsMacros
and the latter just calls $xwiki.formatDate($itemDoc.creationDate)) without any custom
format.
What you can to is:
- either again patch that line of code in the XWiki.LiveTableResultsMacros with a date
format of your choice
- or modify the results afterwards, as explained
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Livetable+Macro#HCusto…
(scroll down to the "Starting with XWiki Enterprise 4.0 you can modify the default
JSON ...")
the later would involve creating your own livetable result page, i.e.
XWiki.LiveTableResultsNoTime
with e.g. the contents:
{{include reference="XWiki.LiveTableResultsMacros" /}}
{{velocity wiki="false"}}
#if("$!{request.xpage}" == 'plain')
$response.setContentType('application/json')
#end
##==================
## Initialize the map that will store the JSON data.
##==================
#set($map = {})
##==================
## Build the JSON in memory using the previous map
##==================
#gridresult_buildJSON("$!request.classname" $request.collist.split(',')
$map)
##==================
## Modify the JSON data from the map or add new data.
##==================
#foreach($row in $map.get('rows'))
#if($row.get('doc_creationDate'))
#set($creation_date = $row.get('doc_creationDate'))
#set($time_sep_index = $creation_date.indexOf(' '))
#if($time_sep_index >=0)
#set($creation_date_without_time = $creation_date.substring(0, $time_sep_index))
#set($discard = $row.put('doc_creationDate', $creation_date_without_time ))
#end
#end
#end
##==================
## Serialize the map in the JSON format.
##==================
$jsontool.serialize($map)
{{/velocity}}
this mostly copy & paste from the LiveTable docs, expect for the "Modify the
JSON data ..." part,
where the creation date field is simply cut off after the first space - quite hackish,
but should work
for most date formats.
Now when calling that page to get the results, everything must be put inside the
'url' option
so the $options change to:
#set($options = {
"url" : "$xwiki.getURL('XWiki.LiveTableResultsNoTime',
'get',
'outputSyntax=plain&classname=XWiki.XWikiUsers&transprefix=xe.userdirectory.&collist=_avatar,first_name,last_name,email,doc.creationDate')",
"rowCount": 10
})
Afterwards it is just a matter of a few hours debugging with firebug etc until one finds
the missing ')' or '"' that keeps things from working ;)
Oh, and come to think of it, the simplest solution would be to change
the XWiki date format the XWiki Admin to exclude the time - that would remove
the time everywhere, but I know people who actually like it. ;)
#set($options = {
"className":"XWiki.XWikiUsers",
"translationPrefix" : "xe.index.users.",
"tagCloud" : true,
"rowCount": 10
})
#livetable("userdirectory" $columns $columnsProperties $options)
