I am new to using XWiki and tried looking for any
previous discussion
on this (and didn't find any).
One of the biggest issues I've found so far in using XWiki is editing
documents (especially when developing a new set of pages for the web
site or adding many of them).
So, as per the Ideas page on
xwiki.org I'd like to bring up the idea
of adding a WebDAV interface to XWiki.
This could allow easy access to the various pages themselves
(including classes, objects, and attachments using some sort of naming
convention) so that creating/updating pages could be done with many
different tools.
I haven't looked into anything too much yet, but I would think that
using something like the WebDAV Construction Kit from Jakarta Slide
(
http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/wck.html) should make the task fairly
straight forward.
Does this sound like it's feasible?
This is one possibility. The other one is to finish the JCR support
that has been started in XWiki's core. We could then use an existing
JCR implementation such as Exo's one or Jackrabbit, etc. I'm pretty
sure they have WebDav support and we would get it for free in
addition to lots of others bonuses...
Someone needs to verify that we can run all the queries we currently
have on JCR. For example does JCR support joins?
Thanks
-Vincent
