Hello devs, As some of you know, about one year ago I developed a toolkit for scripting the generation and installation of .xar extensions. As of last July, my kit was really just a javascript API for crafting extensions programmatically. Recently I finished development of a directory structure for representing XWiki applications which layers on top of the toolkit.
I documented it here: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/DirectoryStructureforXWikiApplications#HCalebMethod I would like to hear some thoughts about this structure as I'm hoping to evolve the optimal human readable filesystem representation for XWiki applications and content so comments are most welcome. I would like to add: * simple representation of extension with all metadata necessary for uploading to extensions.xwiki.org * xardump to dump a xar file into a "cannonical" directory structure. * xarlint to check if a directory representation is cannonical, cannonicalize it, or warn if nodejs specific functions are being used. * maven job which builds xars from directory structures. WDYT? Caleb _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
