I'd like to be able to generate pure JSON from a wiki page, to use in other pages via AJAX. To that end I created a page with the following content: {{velocity wiki="false"}} $response.setContentType('application/json') { "greeting" : "Hello", "location": "World" } {{/velocity}}
Calling this via /xwiki/bin/get/Sandbox/JsonTest I get the following code:
{ "greeting" : "Hello", "location": "World" }
I get the same via /xwiki/bin/view/AlertDB/JsonTest?xpage=plain.
If I remove the $response.setContentType('application/json') https://dev.alertnessdb.net/xwiki/bin/view/AlertDB/JsonTest?xpage=plain
Inded, I would have imagine also that xpage=plain would have worked but it doesn’t. You have to use outputsyntax. For example: http://playground.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/get/Main/VMA?outputSyntax=plain Note: You can go on a page with a livetable and check with Chrome dev tools or Firebug the requests done and you’ll see it uses that.
