Hi,
We are keeping record of daily team progress in XWiki which is basically a
plain document with table listing all active tasks and their changing
statuses. Each day we copy notes from previous day by "copy XWiki document"
action.
This has one major drawback: current version of the document is 2500 which
means each day we create new document with 2.5K history versions.
Is there a simple (without scripting) way to delete history?
a) for single document
/xwiki/bin/deleteversions/Sandbox/Foo?rev1=1.1&rev2=3.1
In one click on a link :) (you can of course generate the link with a
script that fills in the right version range, which I hard-coded).
There's also /xwiki/bin/reset/Sandbox/Foo, but by default it will
require two clicks, one for opening the confirmation page and one for
confirming the action. You can generate a link that also includes the
confirmation:
[[Reset history>>path:$doc.getURL("reset",
"confirm=1&form_token=$!{services.csrf.getToken()}")]]
The problem with both these links is that they they don't reset the
version to 1.1, the document will still have version 2500.1, just that
there won't be any 1.1 to 2499.1 versions in the history.
You can write a Groovy script or a Java component that can clean up the
history on a bunch of documents, including resetting the version to 1.1,
but that's a bit harder and requires working with the internal
XWikiDocument and XWikiDocumentArchive.
Hope this helps,
Marius
