[xwiki-users] Using the "Include" macro across more than one Xwiki instance
Hello, I've searched a little for some information about using the Includes macro across multiple Xwiki instances over the web. Basically, I would like to describe this method of disseminating our own free/libre/open content which is on an Xwiki, for others to reproduce without creating new copies that they would have to maintain. Includes across multiple Xwikis would be nice. Being able to off this across multiple kinds of Wiki would be very nice. Thanks ahead of time for any guidance. -- Joseph Potvin <http://goo.gl/Ssp56>
Including across wiki has nothing special in XWiki. You just need to use the full syntax, see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Model+Module#HThevariou.... On Thu, Feb 13, 2014 at 5:20 PM, Joseph Potvin <[email protected]> wrote:

Actually do you mean from a different wiki in the same farm or include from a completely different server ? On Fri, Feb 14, 2014 at 9:52 AM, Thomas Mortagne <[email protected]> wrote:

Thanks, these are what I'm after. Yes, I'm interested in the Include function across any instance anywhere, via the Web. ...with one follow-up: Are there any steps I might take in structuring my content on an Xwiki that makes it easy for others to pull in parts of it through an Include to their Xwiki, or through any equivalent function to some other platform?

In general what I'm asking is: What presentation layer practices and particular Xwiki features might help to make one's own Xwiki-hosted content (which in my case involves management training materials) includable by others? Likely there are things I can do that make Inclusion by others more or less difficult, and more or less granular. Something like RESTful for the presentation layer content within an Xwiki. I'm not ever sure what to call what I'm seeking. The word "Include" is to "import" as the word ??? is to "export". The missing word is not "Exclude"! ;-) What does the clever counterparty to an Include do if he wants to facilitate content pulls by others from his Xwiki instance?

Hi, I gather the term you’re looking for is called Transclusion (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transclusion). If it’s on the same wiki farm then ti’s achieved with the include macro as mentioned already. If on another wiki, this can be achieved using either the REST API to call XWiki or simply by using a URL. For example if you wish to get the HTML for the Playground’s Sandbox.WebHome page from the outside you’d call: http://playground.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/get/Sandbox/WebHome?outputSyntax=xhtml For more details, see http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/URL+resolution Thanks -Vincent On 14 Feb 2014 at 14:41:40, Joseph Potvin ([email protected](mailto:[email protected])) wrote:
