Hi,
I want to create an application similar or based on the attachment panel
application at the bottom of the xwiki pages. The application should let the
user select the file to upload to the xwiki server and write a description
of the file. Then, the file name and description should be automatically
added to a table. The first column of the table is the file name, that is a
link to the file. The second column of the table is the description of the
file. So, the table is like a repository of the files and its respective
descriptions.
My question is. Is there a macro or code snipped to add a file to the
attachment panel application?
Regards,
Abel

I don't understand well your question. It seems to me that could be
reduced to how add a comment to an attachment "event" and retrieve it
together with the filename. I guess this comment must be linked to each
document version, not to the attachment name as this is shared by all
the releases of a document.
It is easy to get the filenames of the attached files for a page using
XML-RPC following this example...
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XMLRPCJavaExamples#HAttac…
Or simply using this code snip (sorry, I don't remember who sent it to
me! I'm looking for it in xwiki.org site without success):
*****
#set($attachments = $doc.attachmentList)
#if($attachments.size()>0)
#foreach ($attach in $attachments)
<span class="name"><a
href="$doc.getAttachmentURL("${attach.filename}",
"download")"
title="$msg.get("downloadthisattachment")">#packName($attach.filename)</a></span><br>
#end
#end
*****
About how to add a comment to each attachment "event" and retrieve it,
sorry, I can't be of any help. I don't now even if this can be easy
using the current data model. Now, it is possible to retreive version,
size, author and date, but I don't know how to add and retreive a
description/comment for each of them.
I must recognized that I've been from XWiki development for a while, but
I hope this could be helpful for you.
Greetings,
Ricardo

Hi, I finally finish a little application that let you attach files to an
XWiki page and add, edit or delete a comment for the attachment. I didn't
have much time to create a page for the app on the xwiki server. Maybe in
the future. But I want to put the application online in case someone need
that functionality (I know Ricardo need it :) ). The xar file of the File
Storage application (I called like that) is at
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3688604/file-storage.xar. By the way you need to

Thanks! Please, Abel, even though you have no time to create now that

I've downloaded it a imported in a XE 2.6-SNAPSHOT.32286 installation.
ModalBox seems to work fine, but I'm not able to understand how to use

As for the use of ModalBox. Taking into account that XWiki is making

New subject: [xwiki-users] Create application similar to attach file application
Hi Ricardo,
To use the application you should put the following code on your XWiki page:
{{FileStorage/}}
I tested on XWiki 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 versions until now and is working fine.
The application let you add a description to an attachment. It presents the
user a textarea to write the description and a file input component to
choose the file to attach. To attach the file with the description the user
should click the "Attach" button. There is some kind of validation when the
user try to attach the file. It is not posible to attach a file with an
empty description or a description that is more than 255 characters.
Below the component that let you attach files, there is a table that has two
columns: File Name and Description of File. Next to each row there are two
icons a pencil and a red cross (XWiki icons). If you click the pencil you
can edit the description for the corresponding attachment (A modal box
appears). If you click the red cross the attachment is deleted.
The application use the same logic as the "Attach files to this document"
components on the Attachments section at the bottom of the xwiki pages. So
the attachment are also shown in the Attachments section.
I had some problems uploading files bigger than 16M. So I follow the
suggestions on the following page
http://www.mail-archive.com/users@xwiki.org/msg04047.html.
You can find an image of the application at
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3688604/file-storage.PNG.
About the LightBox, I would preffer to use it instead of the ModalBox. But
until now I couldn't find an example of how to use it. Somebody knows if
there is some documentation regarding the LightBox component? Somebody knows
which is the component that is used on the pop up dialog that is shown when
you want to add a new user. Is that the LightBox component?
Let me know if you need something else.
Regards,
Abel

Hi Ricardo,
To use the application you should put the following code on your XWiki page:
{{FileStorage/}}
I tested on XWiki 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 versions until now and is working fine.
I've installed it in a 2.4 XE/XEM and once I see some oddities, I've
move to a test environment running now a XE 2.6-SNAPSHOT.31892
installation. Please, see below.
The application let you add a description to an
attachment.
It presents the
user a textarea to write the description and a file input component to
choose the file to attach. To attach the file with the description the user
should click the "Attach" button. There is some kind of validation when the
user try to attach the file. It is not posible to attach a file with an
empty description or a description that is more than 255 characters.
Below the component that let you attach files, there is a table that has two
columns: File Name and Description of File. Next to each row there are two
icons a pencil and a red cross (XWiki icons). If you click the pencil you
can edit the description for the corresponding attachment (A modal box
appears). If you click the red cross the attachment is deleted.
The application use the same logic as the "Attach files to this document"
components on the Attachments section at the bottom of the xwiki pages. So
the attachment are also shown in the Attachments section.
As far as I can see, it allows to add the description to documents
attached by using this same application. I mean, if I call FileStorage/
from a document with already attached files, I can't use it to add a
description to those files. This leads to a somehow inconsistent
situation where the pencil theoretically allows edition of the
description of newly attached files but do nothing for already attached
ones that remains with an empty description or for newly attached files
using the out-of-the-box attachments utility. Must I been able to edit
the description for already attached files? Thanks.
Another curious thing is that when I attach a document by using your
application, it creates two versions of the attachment, let's call it
1.1 and 1.2. Each time I try to edit the description, two more releases
are added: 1.3 an 1.4 in a second row and so on, so forth.
I've not been able to get the description edited. The ModalBox opens
curretly, it allows enter a new description, but the OK button add only
two new attachment releases, but the description remains untouched.
I had some problems uploading files bigger than 16M.
So I follow the
suggestions on the following page
http://www.mail-archive.com/users@xwiki.org/msg04047.html.
Well, this is a well know issue, but there are tones of smaller
attachments, at least here, that could take profit of this application! :-)
You can find an image of the application at
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3688604/file-storage.PNG.
About the LightBox, I would preffer to use it instead of the ModalBox. But
until now I couldn't find an example of how to use it. Somebody knows if
there is some documentation regarding the LightBox component? Somebody knows
which is the component that is used on the pop up dialog that is shown when
you want to add a new user. Is that the LightBox component?
I've not been able yet to get access and minimally understand XWiki
code. But, do you know this?
http://www.lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox2/
Let me know if you need something else.
I really find this application really useful. I really miss the
possibility of adding descriptions to the attached files. It is
currently possible to add a summary to a version of a document. Or tag
it. But there is no way of adding a description to an attached file. As
stated in a reply to a message in the developers list
(http://markmail.org/thread/57f2kswlpg5oxvxx), it would be possible, for
instance, extract meta information from an attached file, but, as a
XWiki document could be tagged, or somehow added semantic, I miss
something similar that could add at least a description to attached files.
Of course there are a number of things that must be discussed, but your
application is a first interesting approach (please, take into account
that I'm not a dev, so my opinion is really weak) to solve, for me, a
missing XWiki feature.
Let's see if other could be interested in it!
Ah! One more thing: attachment links in the "File Storage" table, points
to Slimsoft wiki instead of the wiki where they are located.
Check this and feel free to test it:
http://epecnetcore.environmentalchange.net:8080/xwiki/bin/view/ICT/HasAttac…
In the shake of security, I'll let it open only a couple of days.
Communication with this server is a bit rudimentary, apologies for any
failure!
Thank you so much!

Abel

New subject: [xwiki-users] Create application similar to attach file application
Just one more tip...
You must be aware of this discussion and some other initiated by Caleb...
http://markmail.org/thread/kexhs7bmww3i35ng
I think it would help to understand how attachments work and it will be
easy to propose to add the possibility of adding a description to each
attached file in the new structure.
Hope this helps!

About the LightBox, I would preffer to use it instead of the ModalBox. But
until now I couldn't find an example of how to use it. Somebody knows if
there is some documentation regarding the LightBox component? Somebody knows
which is the component that is used on the pop up dialog that is shown when
you want to add a new user. Is that the LightBox component?
Let me know if you need something else.

Abel

Hi, I finally finish a little application that
let you attach files to an
XWiki page and add, edit or delete a comment for the attachment. I didn't
have much time to create a page for the app on the xwiki server. Maybe in
the future. But I want to put the application online in case someone need
that functionality (I know Ricardo need it :) ).
Thanks! Please, Abel, even though you have no time to create now that
page, could you provide some guideline about how to use your application
and how we do must expect?
I've downloaded it a imported in a XE 2.6-SNAPSHOT.32286 installation.
ModalBox seems to work fine, but I'm not able to understand how to use
your application.
As for the use of ModalBox. Taking into account that XWiki is making
extensive use of LightBox
(http://www.lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox2/), has you considered to
use it to get a more consistent appearance? Thanks again!
I would like to collaborate by creating a XWiki page for such an
application once I understand how to use it!
The xar file of the File
Storage application (I called like that) is at
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3688604/file-storage.xar. By the way you need to
have the ModalBox Application installed. The ModalBox application can be
found at
http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/ModalBoxApplication.
Let
me know if you have any doubt or comment.

New subject: [xwiki-users] Create application similar to attach file application
Than you very much Ricardo,
I appreciate your inputs.
Must I been able to edit the description for already
attached files?
Yes, you should be able to edit it.
I've not been able to get the description edited.
The ModalBox opens
curretly, it allows enter a new description, but the OK button add only
two new attachment releases, but the description remains untouched.
I tested the application on the xwiki of our company and it works. I am
going to test it on a clean installation of xwiki to trobleshoot that issue.
Check this and feel free to test it:
http://epecnetcore.environmentalchange.net:8080/xwiki/bin/view/ICT/HasAttac…
The application is not working for me. I get "Failed to execute the [groovy]
macro" error.
I think it would help to understand how attachments
work and it will be
easy to propose to add the possibility of adding a description to each
attached file in the new structure.
Do you now the official procedure to propose a new feature on xwiki?
I am going to work in the things you mentioned (I need to figure out how to
use the LightBox component). And after that I am going to create an xwiki
page for the macro. Hopefully it can be usefull for somebody else.

Hi Ricardo,
To use the application you should put the following code on your XWiki
page:
{{FileStorage/}}
I tested on XWiki 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 versions until now and is working
fine.
The application let you add a description to an
attachment. It presents
the
user a textarea to write the description and a
file input component to
choose the file to attach. To attach the file with the description the
user
should click the "Attach" button. There
is some kind of validation when
the
user try to attach the file. It is not posible to
attach a file with an
empty description or a description that is more than 255 characters.
Below the component that let you attach files, there is a table that has
two
columns: File Name and Description of File. Next
to each row there are
two
icons a pencil and a red cross (XWiki icons). If
you click the pencil you
can edit the description for the corresponding attachment (A modal box
appears). If you click the red cross the attachment is deleted.
The application use the same logic as the "Attach files to this document"
components on the Attachments section at the bottom of the xwiki pages.
So
the attachment are also shown in the Attachments
section.
I had some problems uploading files bigger than 16M. So I follow the
suggestions on the following page
http://www.mail-archive.com/users@xwiki.org/msg04047.html.
You can find an image of the application at
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3688604/file-storage.PNG.
About the LightBox, I would preffer to use it instead of the ModalBox.
But
until now I couldn't find an example of how
to use it. Somebody knows if
there is some documentation regarding the LightBox component? Somebody
knows
which is the component that is used on the pop up
dialog that is shown
when
you want to add a new user. Is that the LightBox
component?
Let me know if you need something else.
