format="count" already exists, since at least SMW 0.7.

??? This page mentions SMW, but it's hardly related to it.
Have you looked at ontoworld.org or http://semantic-mediawiki.org/?

I agree that the wiki pages there need improvement, and hopefully that
will happen once 1.0 is released (personally, I'm currently refraining
from doing any work on the site, because many things have changed
between 0.7 and 1.0 and it's not so easy to separate it; I hope 1.0 will
be released soon, so the old information about 0.7 can be replaced) But
such documentation doesn't write itself. Maybe you can rework the wiki
pages on semantic-mediawiki.org with the things you have already learned
about SMW 1.0.
That would surely be appreciated.

Thomas

It's great, but I use a div tag with special css style to separate the
rows.., so {{ {{{1}}} }} is probably better to me, or maybe
embedformat can be expanded to custom set of tags? The only concern
is, how much the template expansion is inefficient comparing to
format="embedded"...

Great!


May I suggest another kind of ask format? Sometimes it's desirable to
get only a simple count of rows instead of the query result rows. So,
if there's a 5 rows in the query result, ask format="count" would
return a number 5. It may be useful to statistics, in further
computations in templates and so on...

I really think that SMW requires a better documentation on new
formats of queries, #ask and subqueries. Because the only
documentation I've used is outdated:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Substitution
e.g. no new features, no subqueries here and so on..

In the future, after releasing final version, I would suggest
reporting a story about SMW to slashdot, to get some more publicity..

I expect that this works now with #ask, *BUT* there already is a format for 
what you want to do. It is called "embedded" and it can be customised with 
the following parameters:

* embedformat = {h1, h2, h3, ol, ul} (how to format the result list)
* embedonly = true (whether to leave away the headlines)

This must, however, be combined with  so as not to import semantic 
data or category data to the page that asks the query (especially when using 
#ask). Embed also works for annotation-objects, e.g. to print the 
query "[[some page]] [[links to::*]]" -- then all the values of "links to" 
will be embedded. Other than the "first column", print requests 
for "embedded" are usually ignored. Also, there are known ways of cyclic 
embedding that may lead to infinite inclusion loops (though in practice these 
tend to be as finite as available memory).

Re: [SMW-devel] ask query format=template

2007-11-23 Thread Markus Krötzsch
Good to hear that at least the XML-import+SMW-refresh finally worked. The 
design of MediaWiki is very fragile in many places, and I fear that there are 
much more non-common cases where extensions do not work as expected (e.g. due 
to the combination of global and non-global objects everywhere in the code).

Some minor remarks follow.

Ah, now I see the problem: refreshing all data will only ever delete the data 
related to existing subjects. If for some reason there are entries of 
annotations for articles that do not exist, then these are not fixed by any 
amount of refreshing. This is what happened in the above case (the title 
object did not exist).

I have now extended the storage implementation to catch this case, but we 
should also have some script that resets the SMW-tables completely.

Yes, that should work.

You can run several instances with different page IDs to start refreshing, but 
you cannot currently tell them to stop at some fixed ID other than by editing 
the script. Doing this may improve performance if CPU is a bottleneck for you 
(in some cases, DB bandwidth or working memory may be the bottleneck), and if 
your OS really distributes sub-processes between the CPUs (my observation is 
that a single wiki, even if processing many requests in parallel, often uses 
only one of our server CPUs; this may be related to the single mysql-server 
that creates DB-processes; anyway it is handy since a high-load wiki doesn't 
ever lock the whole server but only one CPU).

Can the implementation of {{#ask}} make possible such trick that I've
unsuccessfully tried to perform with SMW 0.7:

Instead of displaying a page link in ask query template (via {{{1}}})
I've tried to display the content of resulted pages with
{{ {{{1}}} }}
Yet, expansion didn't work.

If that won't be possible even with {{#ask...}}, maybe is it possible
to make another format of ask queries, something like this:

Re: [SMW-devel] ask query format=template

2007-11-12 Thread cnit
> Did you ever run SMW_refreshData after the import?
Of course not. That's because I am using XML import instead of
standard way described in INSTALL, and also I believe that moving from
SMW 0.6 to SMW 0.7 had filled smw_attributes properly during the XML
import (though it was many months ago, so I can't remember for sure).

> Plain import does probably bypass SMW's (save) hooks, so that this

It's really strange - because XML export/import scrpts do include
LocalSettings.php, where the extensions are included. And these
extensions obviousely setup their hooks there.

But it seems that you're right - re-installing everything again,
importing XML dump and performing SMW_refreshData twice did fill the
smw_attributes table..

It's extremly disappointing and frustrating and also a sign of bad
design that MW does not call extension hooks during the XML import :-(

No, I am not going to re-save hundreds of pages, of course. And of
course I do realize that SMW needs to extract and store it's data via
the hook during the page save. It's an MW's XML import that really
frustrates me...

2007-11-09 Thread Sergey Chernyshev
Yes, I ran SMW_refreshData twice - first with -p and second without.
The problem I ran into is that Property page complained like this:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member funct
ion getText() on a non-object in //extensions/SemanticMediaWiki
/includes/articlepages/SMW_PropertyPage.php on line 68, referer: http:///index.php?title=Special%3AAllpages&from=&namespace=102

so I enabled SQL debug and looked at the queries and realized that only few
of the pages that were returned by  SMW::getAllPropertySubjects had entries
in mw_page (hmm, it seems that I got you confused saying that I lacked
entries in mw_smw_attributes - looks like I got them referencing wrong ids
or non-existing pages).

I'm thinking of dropping all SMW tables and re-running the SMW_Setup.php and
then SMW_refreshData twice. Do you think is a right approach to rebuild
stuff from scratch? BTW, is it OK to split SMW_refreshData task to several
tasks and run them simultaneously for better use of multiple CPUs I have?

Yes, I could use this as well. But this feature comes only after the

Re: [SMW-devel] ask query format=template

2007-11-09 Thread Markus Krötzsch
Did you ever run SMW_refreshData after the import? Plain import does probably 
bypass SMW's (save) hooks, so that this last part would be needed (twice, as 
described in INSTALL). 

SMW's tables are completely determined by the page contents of your wiki, and 
so they do not need to be imported or backuped. If they cannot be rebuilt via 
SMW_refreshData, then normal editing in the wiki would also not fill them 
properly (which is possible, but not related to the import itself).

Running SMW_refreshData twice (once with option -p and once without; option -v 
may also be interesting but not essential) will restore all available data in 
basically all cases. If the table remains incomplete, this means that the 
content of the pages does no longer require certain entries there. This may 
have various reasons:

* The table contained old orphaned entries before, maybe due to some bug in 
earlier versions.
* The table contained outdated data (e.g. after some template change) that 
just had not been refreshed yet.
* Some annotation is no longer accepted, maybe due to (unintentional) 
syntactic changes, or due to known limitations such as the disabled 
Type:Boolean.

Only case 3 should bother you, and in this case more information is needed: 
what exactly is it that is missing? 

But in any case SMW_refreshData (at least in theory) suffices to recreate all 
SMW data from scratch or from import. Anything not built there will not be 
built when editing pages normally either.

Re: [SMW-devel] ask query format=template

2007-11-08 Thread Sergey Chernyshev
Not sure if it's related to this issue, but I also lost some data in
smw_attributes table (not all of it though). The worst part is that it
didn't reappear after I ran complete SMW_refreshData on the dataset.
I wonder what needs to be done to repopulate SMW tables from scratch?

Thanks for a hint, but it seems that the problem is deeper. Even
after the successfully importing XML dump, where
Attribute:.. 
were replaced with
Property:..

and also these pages were placed on the top of the dump, to make sure
properties are defined before importing the pages where actual
values of properties are used..

But.. my smw_attributes table is empty :-( I think it's not
correct, because I have at least two properties and many user pages
that use them..

My first guess was: "that might be because the datetime class was
completely rewritten, and the new version doeesn't accept Russian
format of dates". But, I've made a simple test and it seems that

$this->m_time = strtotime(trim($value));

converts Russian formatted date
strtotime("13.04.2007")
to correct value.

There is a page, which uses Date property with such value, yet, the
manual Special:Ask search of
[[Äàòà:=13.04.2007]]
where Aaoa is a Date in Russian, like:
[[Date:=13.04.2007]]

returns nothing. Yet, the page with such property value exists in
the wiki..

The property also has it's own definition page (of course), which
states (in Russian) that it's a special one and it's type belongs
to standard type "Date" - there are mouseover popup hints. I guess that
means that property has been defined correctly?

I guess that SMW tables aren't initialized during the XML import for some
reason?

Re: [SMW-devel] ask query format=template

2007-11-07 Thread Sergey Chernyshev
Great news that other formats support templates as well. I wonder if you
have templated formatting for tables in plans - I had a use case where
selected property was a URL and all looked very good except for this URL
stretching the table badly while it was fine to have the same link text for
all of the rows.

Re: [SMW-devel] ask query format=template

2007-11-07 Thread Markus Krötzsch
Yes, this appears to be a bug. For a quick workaround, consider using the 
formats "list", "ul" or "ol", all of which also support the 
template-parameter for formatting (and this one certainly works with SMW1.0). 
Note that with list, you can also choose the separator between items 
(parameter sep), so as to simulate "template" quite well.

[SMW-devel] ask query format=template

2007-11-07 Thread cnit
Hi!
After adding additional priviledges to database (CREATE TEMPORARILY
TABLES and DROP), my upgrade seems to work. I wonder, whether these
additional priviledges are mentioned in INSTALL file, because older
SMW's were happy with just ALTER.

But there's some disappointment, my query templates don't work
anymore. I've used to display custom HTML layout with such query:




[[Date:=*]]
[[Category:News]]


and a such simple Template:newsrow


{{{2}}}
{{{1}}}




The query works, yet the value of {{{2}}} is omitted. it's empty,
none.. :-(

{{{1}}} expands just fine..

Dmitriy
