Hi everyone,
Thanks so much for your quick answer on my previous question.
I am trying to write a bibliography/cite macro (I am happy to share
once it dies something useful). I am writing the macro in a wiki page
and I am using groovy as scripting language.
I would like to have access to the URL of an attachment of the page
the macro is used on. I am doing so by using
doc.getAttachmentURL( <name> );
however, the URL uses the page the Macro is saved in, not the page the
macro is used on. I think I managed this before using velocity.
So my question: what would be the right way of accessing the Document
of the page the macro is placed on?
Thanks for your help,

Some time ago we have implemented some proof of concept in:

Feel free to investigate it and steal ideas.
(I can provide XAR file, if you are interested).

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for your comments
* doc is the current document
* context.doc is the wiki macro document
That is indeed the case for velocity. However if I am using groovy I
get different results.
I have the following XWiki Macro groovy-test in Page GroovyTest
{{velocity}}
{{/velocity}}
{{velocity}}
$doc.getAttachmentURL("test.dat")
{{/velocity}}
{{groovy}}
print("{{html}}");
print( doc.getAttachmentURL("test.dat") );
println("{{/html}}");
{{/groovy}}
if I put
{{groovy-test /}}
in the body of the page I get the following output
/xwiki/bin/download/Macros/GroovyTest/test.dat
/xwiki/bin/download/Macros/GroovyTest/test.dat
no surprise. However, If i put the same page body int the page
GroovyTestExternal the output is
/xwiki/bin/download/Macros/GrovvyTestExternal/test.dat
/xwiki/bin/download/Macros/GroovyTest/test.dat
thus the difference is with the macro language. What should I use in
order to get the expected output (GroovyTestExternal) in groovy?
Thanks so much,

Hi Thomas,
Sorry to keep asking. I was aware xcontext the point is doc and
xcontext.doc give the same result.
Can you please reread the comment about the test below? I think it is a bug.
Thanks for your patience,

HI everyone,
I still think the behavior of the groovy script variable doc in a
xwiki macro is not as intended. But I am using the following
workaround.
Put the groovy code in a groovy class stored in a different wiki page
(Macros.CiteGroovyClass) . There is documentation here (
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/GroovyClassHelloWorldTuto…
) on how to do that. Then the following velocity code in the macro
definition will give the correct doc Object to the groovy code.
{{velocity}}
#set($groovyObject = $xwiki.parseGroovyFromPage("Macros.CiteGroovyClass"))
$groovyObject.setObjects($xwiki, $doc, $context)
$groovyObject.process()
{{/velocity}}

New subject: [xwiki-users] [ursus.otherinbox.com] Re: xwiki Macro using groovy
hmm i think i know what happen, there is a major difference between
velocity and other script languages binding: the VelocityContext is
filled at request startup and ScriptContext is filled the first time
it's used, so the first time a groovy macro is used for example.
So in groovy macro "doc" binding is provided by looking at the context
each time a groovy macro is executed. That is to make sure the binding
is properly synchronized with the context.
Only real solution i can see is to fix
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4262 (and have the proper
current document in the context instead of the current hack) and
provide a $context.macro.document (this should be done anyway even
before XWIKI-4262 is fixed since it's part of the macro informations).
Asiri in the meantime i think you should set "sdoc" in context instead
of "doc". I far as i can see in the code hasProgrammingRights do the
following:
* try sdoc content author
* if no sdoc try doc content author
* if no doc try current user
