Re: [xwiki-users] [XML/RPC] trying execute "confluence1.search"without success [Closed] - xwiki-users@xwiki.org

  Sergiu Dumitriu,

  Using this tip, i had print the className and got this result :

	  System.out.println("search return (" + searchResult.getClass() +
")");
  	  [stdout] search return (class [Ljava.lang.Object;)

  I was wrong because i was thinking that this was a basic Object but  
it's an array of Object (not a List)...
  So proceeding this way i got my array of results (Map []) with  
confluence "SearchResult" attributes)
  Here is a sample wich display the first result title (assume that  
there is one result) :

  	    Object searchResult = client.execute("confluence1.search",
	    					new Object[] { p_token, p_query, new Integer(p_maxResults) });
	    // System.out.println("search return (" + searchResult.getClass() +
")");

	    // searchResult != null
	    Object[] searchResults = (Object[]) searchResult;

	    // searchResult != null && searchResults.length > 0
	    String firstObjectTitle = (String) ((Map)searchResults[0]).get("title");
	    System.out.println("firstObjectTitle =" + firstObjectTitle);

  Relevant (confluence) SearchResult attributes :
	Key     Type 	Value
	title   String 	the feed's title
	url     String 	the remote URL needed to view this search result online
	excerpt String 	a short excerpt of this result if it makes sense
	type    String 	the type of this result - page, comment, spacedesc,  
attachment, userinfo, blogpost
	id      String 	the long ID of this result (if the type has one)

  FYI, here is a test result :
	[stdout] search return (class [Ljava.lang.Object;)
	[stdout] firstObjectTitle=Main.WebHome
	[stdout] firstObjectUrl=
	[stdout] firstObjectExcerpt=
	[stdout] firstObjectType=pageid
	[stdout] firstObjectId=Main.WebHome

  Thanks :)
  Regards
  Brice Vandeputte

  Hi all,

   i'm trying to create a Java XML-RPC Client of my Xwiki instance  
 (for now i'm using xwikie1_6m2)

   Documentation used :
 	- Xwiki XML/RPC doc :   
 http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XMLRPC
   	- Confluence API Specification :   
 http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Remote+API+Specification

   I success with this methods : confluence1.login,  
 confluence1.logout, confluence1.getPage, confluence1.storePage,  
 confluence1.renderContent

   but i got a problem with this one : confluence1.search

 Confluence API talk about two ways to use search :
 1) Vector search(String token, String query, int maxResults) -  
 return a list of SearchResults which match a given search query  
 (including pages and other content types). This is the same as a  
 performing a parameterised search (see below) with an empty  
 parameter map.

 2) Vector search(String token, String query, Map parameters, int
 maxResults) - (since 1.3) like the previous search, but you can  
 optionally limit your search by adding parameters to the parameter  
 map. If you do not include a parameter, the default is used instead.

 The second way (with parameters) is not implemented on Xwiki (cf.   
 http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1559 )

 So how must we use the first search method (without Map parameters) ?

 I'm trying this :
 	    Vector searchResult = (Vector) client.execute("confluence1.search",
 	    					new Object[] {	p_token, p_query,new Integer(p_maxResults) });
 This code return a "ClassCastException" : it's like the returned  
 object were not a "Vector".. If then what is it ?

I don't know what it is. In Java, the method returns List<String>. To
see what you have there, just use reflection:

Object searchResult = client.execute...
System.out.println(searchResult.getClass())
// Or whatever logging method you use

This will print the exact classname, and from there you can procede further.
