Hi all!
I'm still struggling to understand how expanded/collapsed state of

I'm currently using a 2.4.30451 XE/XEM installation.
Looking for macros controlling this state in macros.vm, I see:
***
#macro(panelheader $title)
#set($cookieName = ${context.user.replaceAll(':','')}_${panel})
#set($expanded = $xwiki.getUserPreferenceFromCookie($cookieName))
#if(!$expanded)
#set($expanded = 'expanded')
#end
## Note: We pass the Panel name as an HTML class attribute so that
it's
possible to style
## the Panels selectively using CSS.
#set ($specialClassAttribute = )
#if ($paneldoc $paneldoc != )
#set ($specialClassAttribute =
$util.convertToAlphaNumeric($paneldoc.name http://paneldoc.name))
#end
div class=panel $expanded $specialClassAttribute
h1 class=xwikipaneltitle
onclick=togglePanelVisibility(this.parentNode,
'${cookieName}');$title/h1
div class=xwikipanelcontents
#end
***
This macro creates an expanded panel. By clicking the panel title, the
system creates a cookie that stores her current state.
But if I modify this macro and says...
#if(!$expanded)
#set($expanded = 'collapsed')
#end
No macro is created and panels are always collapsed when loaded and
after relaoding.
That is because 'collapsed' is used as a class name for the panel dom
element and there is also a CSS rule which says that panels with
'collapsed' class name are being displayed as collapsed.
So, the default logic is like this:
1) take the $expanded value from a cookie
2) set the panel dom element class name as being the value of $expanded
3) on loading the page, with the help of CSS, display the panel as
being 'collapsed' or 'expanded', depending on the value of $expanded
And in your case, this is the logic:
1) set the value of $expanded as being 'collapsed'
2) set the panel dom element class name as being the value of
$expanded (which is 'collapsed')
3) on loading the page, with the help of CSS, display the panel as
being 'collapsed', this being the value of $expanded
I hope that this helps you understand the logic behind 'collapsed' and
'expanded' panels.
Raluca.
Yes, it helps. Thus, to control the initial state of a panel (collapsed
or expanded) the first time I load a page (no cookie has been set for
that panel) what I need is to create a cookie with the desired value.
Please, is this correct? If yes, could you point me to the best way of
creating that cookie at loading time?
Thanks!!!
Please, could you me understand why?
Thank you so much!!!

Hi! Young Gu wrote: Hi Ricardo, Wow, it's okay now, thanks very very much, awesome work. It's the problem of the Extract field, there is blank line within this filed, we can see it when edit with Objects mode. Glad to help. Now the only question is that why the system automatic add one blank line to the Extract field? I am sure I edit all posts with default edit Inline Form, I don't use Objects mode to edit it. I would like to try to figure out the reason when possible, thanks. I've made a number of trials and never got content automatically added to a database field.

Re: [xwiki-users] [request] Comparing XWiki to other solutions
Hi! Peter McLarty wrote: On this note, it would be right to put a link to Wikimatrix http://www.wikimatrix.org/ It is partly because of there that I chose Xwiki for our Office. If you add Drupal, what other CMS systems get a nod as well, perhaps they could be a separate grouping. Where does a product like Liferay fit in? Sort of a near too but not quite a wiki group, if you were not aware Liferay has a wiki built in. I would add to the page but I dont have a log in for Xwiki.org You can register yourself in xwiki.org to be able to edit this and most of the available documents! :-) As for WikiMatrix, I do agree with Vicent and Sergiu and I'm not sure if we have a clear idea about what this thread is for. The original objective was: we would like to polish XWiki based on features available at other solutions and that we would like to have them available within XWiki. For doing this it is obvious that we need to know this other alternative and be able to describe what feature we would like to be developed in XWiki. If this is true, won't be better to complete the survey on XWiki features available at... http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SurveyXWikiFeatures ... allowing to add an example of a different product including it? For instance, compare these entries: Microblogging (twitter-like in your wiki) Form Builder (easily create forms in XWiki) The first one includes an example: ala Twitter. The second, doesn't. The idea is to allow users to enter products they are thinking about when requiring/ranking a new feature. I think I'm just following a previous message from Sergiu and adding a reference to this already available survey. I think also that it would be useful to add categories to that features definitions and, by the end, we will end with some kind of wizard leading to a Collaborative Environment Choice Wizard ala WikiMatrix's Wiki Choice Wizard :-) WikiMatrix compares only a very limited set of features not including, as far as I see, application development and all those rich features allowing XWiki to compete, for instance, with CMS or social network software. We are not working on a classical wiki, we are working on a development framework based on wiki philosophy. Thanks!

Hi Richard,
I saw that tip, the reason I don't want to do that is because now you have a
space that exists only to do redirects...
AND worse, I'm using ShortURLs, which means domain.com/Public is condensed
down to the URL domain.com/ ... which due to the problem/bug, renders the
Main/WebHome page instead of Public/WebHome, which redirects to Public which
condenses down and... etc I think I ends up with a redirect loop.
I got the point. I'm using short URLs, but I've not removed the space
name yet. So, I'm not able to help you with this issue. I think that the
best alternative is to create a Jira issue with this. Thanks!

real-inheritance, must not I expect that the rights explicitly granted

yes, but if you define a harder rule at page level, the space level one will
be overlapsed by the new rule.

I get your point. thanks. But I think it keep being counter-intuitive
for me that once I grant some rights on a page to a group, the fact of
explicitly adding some user (belonging or not to the previous group)
rights to the same page prevents members of the original granted group,
included the owner, to access the document.
Thanks!
The only exception I can think off that would help your usecase (but is
not
implemented) is to have additional special rights for the document
Creator.
Right now the creator gets DELETE right as an additional behavior. Maybe
we
should always grant VIEW and EDIT to the creator.
This way, at least, he could fix the rights behavior (by giving rights
also
to GroupA).
Another thing that is missing is a warning that by giving that right, the
giver will lose it.

Hi,
We ran into a rights problem, which might be the result of ignorance,
but
could also be caused by a perceptual omission in the rights model. The
following happened:
1. created space, with explicit rights on group 'GroupA' (this
automatically locks out users who are not a member of this group) = ok
2. create/edit a page as user 'UserA', member of 'GroupA' = ok
3. UserA (owner/creator of the document) grants view rights to user
'UserB', NOT in GroupA = problems!
Now the creator/owner of the document (UserA) can NOT view his own
document
anymore! Same for problem for every other user in 'GroupA'.
I figured that this is correct from a certain point of view: an explicit
view for a specific user locks out all other users, but that includes
the
owner and all other users, including those in 'GroupA', with correct
rights
at the space level.
A possible solution is to grant GroupA explicitly at the same time you
grant a specific user access to a certain page, but people will forget
to do
so.
My question is: did we do anything wrong, and is it possible to manage
the
rights in a way that prevents this counter-intuitive behaviour?
I have the feeling that the rights model lacks real-inheritance: when
checking permissions for a user, it should return the permissions
including
that of the group as if it were his explicit permissions, also for pages
that inherit rights from the space. E.g.
hasView('UserA') should always return 'True' when the group he belongs
to
has view rights at the space level.
Now it apparently returns 'False' when there is an implicit override by
granting a user view rights. Or does inheritance from the space levels
stops
working as soon as there's any kind of override on a specific page?
A possible but crude work-around could be using some intelligent trigger
functions in the database to explicitly add all rights from the space to
the
specific document as soon as an XWikiRights object is written, but
that's
kind of a last resort.
Could you help me? I hope for a better solution!

Re: [xwiki-users] Attachments-RAM dependencies, anchors, TOC
Hi!
Haru Mamburu wrote:
Hi!
Kindly ask you to solve some unclear topics:
I. How can I find information about such dependencies:
- How many server RAM memory is required for each 1GB of attachments?
- The same for CPU.
How to estimate this and calculate hardware? What are main principles?
II. Is it possible to customise WYSIWYG editor separetly for each space in
one sub-XWiki ?
III. Is there any way to manage anchors from Links plugin in WYSIWYG editor?
The logic is:
- select space
- select page
- select anchor on this page
- put the link
For now, even if I write down XWiki.WebHome#anchor in the link field
manually, I get #anchor cut out.
And the only way to do it via source code editor manually. Then it works
fine. Personally me found more or less suitable solution with FF plugin
https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/addon/416/
It's very easy to get anchor, but not so easy to put it. For unqualified
users it makes XWiki one-handed.
IV. Is there any way to make TOC macro to build table of contents of several
pages and put it on one page?
For Example:
toc Page1, Page2, Page3
It's very useful, when one can group all project highligts together in one
TOC.
I used to use Track Wiki, it works excellent in there. I suffer from it's
absence now :-)
Something like this will be also welcome here. We would like to have
some multi chapter book feature to automatically generate such kind of
TOCs without having to include the whole documents in a given page.
For instance, this works:
{{toc /}}
{{include document=TOCsample01/}}
{{include document=TOCsample02/}}
But it create a global document including all the contents.
It will be great to be able to define de scope of the TOC macro to
include several documents. Perhaps those of a space or those in some way
tagged. I think premises are there, but I'm still lacking the required
developer skills to contribute a new macro or modify the existing one!
Thanks.

No register button, no history, comments or annotations panels accessible from the main page. No create new page or edit the current one buttons. All that features will be shown only after user authentication. And, some of them, only for a given set of users. Yes, the portal is based on the wiki concept, but wiki features are so obvious as the administrator/designer decides. An a la Wikipedia skin is among the wanted skins for some users.

I'm currently stuck between two softwares: XWiki and Foswiki.

Foswiki is flatfile and xwiki is SQL based. I hear that SQL is generally better, is that the case? Foswiki seems to be pretty fast even if it is flatfile. Thanks :) XWiki is not only a wiki: it is a complete and powerful Java based development framework. I arrived here from MediaWiki looking for access management and I found much, much more than this. I think it is worth you give it a try! Even more: if after playing for a while in the sandbox (http://xoffice.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Sandbox/), or asking and using your own wiki in MyWiki community farm or Netcipia, or installing your own standalone installation, you know how to set up an application server and a supported RDBMS, install and give a try to the last snapshot to feel the newest improvements! Don't forget to use the Create 200 Dummy Users snippet available at... http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Snippets/Create200DummyUsersSnippet ... and play for a while with Users and Groups administration. Out of the box, XWiki features an amazingly powerful rights management system. Of course control who can read or edit a given document of a part of it is not a big issue for XWiki administrators. As for theming. Even though I think teaming is better than theming working with XWiki :-) as many other development areas, it has also evolved greatly in the last months. Some new concepts has been recently introduced, for instance check the Skin Extensions Plugin (http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/SkinExtensionsPlugin). Right now is really easy to customized colours and logos, and modify any UI characteristic by using Firefox Firebug to track the relevant CSS XWiki code. Perhaps if you only look for a classical wiki, theming is not the most friendly XWiki feature for you. But don't forget this: it is completely scalable, so you should want to forget a bit about theming for a while being sure that what you see in our UI is or will be easily customizable in a near future. XWiki is what it reads in its portal's homepage: The XWiki project offers both a generic platform for developing collaborative applications using the wiki paradigm and products developed on top of it. XWiki Enterprise should be the product you are looking for, but this is only the top of the iceberg. I'm not able to compare the use of flat-files vs RDBMS (SQL is just the standard language that allows you to query such databases). BUT, once again, don't forget that XWiki is more than a wiki. It uses a RDBMS to hold a complex object-oriented structure. You can also use its SQL plugin to query local or remote RDBMS tables, but also can its API methods to design complex queries using HQL (Hibernate Query Language) or XWQL (XWiki Query Language) More: each XWiki document could be considered a database on its own! It could be composed of an unlimited number of objects + plain or more or less structured text. Sticks with XWiki and won't only create a classical, fast and full featured wiki but discover a full and funny universe of great possibilities. And, most important of all: you will meet a great community and development team! Just my two cents!

Re: [xwiki-users] evaluation questions: sorted document tree; XOO; other topics
Hi! Mark D. Anderson wrote: hi - I'm one of the stranded former users of the free hosted service wik.is which mindtouch precipitously cancelled, forcing all users to either go to one of their paid plans (which don't match my usage), or leave. I'm going to host it myself this time, and have been looking through the alternatives. I'm attracted to xwiki for several reasons: full ACL support; ldap authentication; good open source license without a bunch of proprietary features; Balsamiq and Word integrations; wysiwyg editing; and strong REST api. From my first glance I do still have some reservations: 1. One concern is convenient maintenance of sorted children. I see that in xwiki's own documentation wiki, this isn't done: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/ is just maintained manually as an index page. As far as I can tell, by default children are just sorted by creation order. With the http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/DocumentTreePlugin they can instead be sorted by name. Lastly, there is http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/SortedDocumentTreePlugin But I really don't understand the instructions for importing a class to get an additional sortable attribute. Also I don't know if these plugins support sort order of spaces too, or not. Ideally, however it is done, when a page is created, the form would have not only the page title and parent title, but a place for an optional sort value. Without considering the available code, just to say that any single piece of information associated with a document can be used to programmatically display any bunch of selected documents in a new one. The homepage of a document is a clear field to be used as ID, but any identifiable content or object property could be used. 2. I'd like to be able to export an entire space as a big PDF. I can't tell if this plugin will do that: http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/PDFExportPanelApplication For example, suppose I wanted the whol xwiki AdminGuide as a single PDF, what would I do? To the best of my knowledge, this is not possible with the available plugins or applications. You can export as PDF a document, but not space or any other artefact you could create as a multi-chapter document metaphor. This nice application eases the use of some features related with document export. I would keep track of the development of nested spaces features and some other initiatives to add new hierarchy to XWiki documents. Also, an understanding of the new rendering architecture will be required to get something working on this field... http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Modules/RenderingModule 3. I'd like a real bare bones look -- even slimmer than Confluence or MediaWiki, and both of those are a little less cluttered than the Toucan skin. I'm not finding any example skins that are like that. This is really easy. Check this thread... http://markmail.org/thread/n5i7mammmo63dcz6 As Vincent said, check some samples here... http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Screenshots 4. I like the idea of supporting office app clients. But it seems there is some clumsiness with XOffice specifying a parent: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XOFFICE-243 And I can't find any documentation on editing/creating content from OpenOffice and/or via any webdav client. Things like URL conventions, etc. This page http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Architecture mentions XOO (Xwiki OpenOffice) but there is nothing else about it: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Search?text=XOOwikinames=space= 5. I might be blind but I can't find any documentation for the blogging support. http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/BlogApplication 6. The page http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/ says Components are preferred over plugins but the link to Components goes nowhere. http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Modules/ComponentModule In general the documentation wiki is pretty confusing. The Enterprise docs link to basically all the same places as the platform docs. There seems to be a mixture of information that is years out of date and information about ideas not yet implemented. Sadly it is an example of the dangers of using a wiki :(. -mda Well, I could agree with you and I can also feel the same danger of using a wiki you are speaking about. The point is that XWiki is a collaborative initiative. Developers are mostly devoted to develop (sic) new great features and it could be truth that the documentation is a bit messy. But I'm sure, better I can confirm, that any initiative/idea will be welcome and carefully considered for the community. Mainly, for the developers themselves. Please, browse through users lists and Jira repository to check how many times several aspects related with documentation have been discussed. Even some proposals about ideas

Sergiu Dumitriu wrote:
On 11/24/2010 04:12 PM, Fabio Mancinelli wrote:
Hi Caty,
a mail to share my vision about the User Status feature.
The main idea is to have a mechanism for users to broadcast messages
concerning their activities.
The key use cases for this are:
1) Fast communication between enterprise members which can replace IMs
and mails with user status
1.1) Communicate what you are working on
Obvious, +1.
1.2) Quick question answering and feedback gathering
You mean something like:
BigBoss says:
How do we get through the crisis?
Jimmy says:
@BigBoss reduce costs!
Mike says:
@BigBoss sell more!
And:
Jimmy says:
@Timmy where can I get a W80 form?
Timmy says:
@Jimmy room 404
1.3) Interesting material dissemination
You mean link sharing?
2) Focused discussions about a given topic
I'm not sure this is the best way to communicate. It might work if it
behaves a bit like instant messaging, with updates being refreshed in
real time. Also, for it to make sense as a discussion, it should be
threaded. So this starts to look like Google Wave, which somehow failed.
It might work in an intranet, but still it would diverge too much from a
simple status update, and I'm not sure how it can be integrated nicely
inside the current Activity UI (nor the implementation, but that's not
critical).
3) Fast communication with external clients to keep them up-to-date
I'm not sure I get this. Isn't an *intra*net supposed to be internal,
inaccessible to external parties?
Do you mean closed group messages, visible only in a given space?
In order to realize these use cases we need something that resembles
to Facebook's Wall or, if we look at more enterprise oriented
products, to SalesForce chatter (http://www.salesforce.com/chatter)
This is getting too far from the initial ideas. It was supposed to be
integrated in the recent activity, as little user messages mixed among
wiki activity. Now it looks like the main goal is user communication,
with wiki activity on the second place. Going the Chatter way would
imply many changes in the ActivityStream implementation, the
{{activity}} macro, and the Recent Activity UI.
I'm not saying we shouldn't try to go there, I'm only asking if we want
to do it as the User Statuses sub-feature inside the Activity feature.
In particular:
1) The feature should be implemented as an internal subsystem that
takes advantage of the Wiki underlying model for exposing information
That's always the case.
1.1) User status can contain reference to Wiki entities (i.e., page,
attachments, comments) and external links. As Jerome said in a
previous email, this is key. An autocompletion mechanism could help
making this feature more usable.
The full wiki syntax might be available, which includes links to
documents/attachment. If we do that, then should the WYSIWYG be
displayed as well?
1.2) I am not sure that we need to provide an upload mechanism to
associate an artifact to a user status. Linking an attachment in a
Wiki page is sufficient in my opinion.
+1 for links to existing data only. We could provide a notify this
checkbox in the edit/upload UI.
2) It should be possible to define one or more neighborhoods, i.e.,
people that will receive our status updates
We could have activities for a space, and activities for a group. This
means that in the group UI we could integrate a say something widget.
Another idea is a panel which allows you to specify where to post the
update: global (default), current space, specific space (with suggest),
group of users (with suggest), specific user (with suggest).
My fear is that the UI will be too complex, which increases the
likelihood of users abandoning their update. If something takes too much
to accomplish, or there are too many knobs to tinker with, then people
will avoid that.
2.1) This is something that is more powerful wrt to what we have in
Facebook because it would allow us to create different social-graphs
that can be targeted when a user status is updated
3) It should be possible to comment on a status update (e.g., quick
question answering and feedback gathering use case)
Is a simple reply to this enough?
4) The user status are not tweets... I think that the number of
character should be limited to a reasonable high threshold (e.g.,
2048)
The current activity stream allows for 2000 characters (which usually is
rounded to something more), so this should be OK.
5) User statuses should be visible only to the users belonging to the
neighborhood targeted by the status
This can be done at the UI level, but it's going to be hard to protect
it at the API level. We can do it if we change the activitystream plugin
to expose more high level methods, like

How to instantiate a class? 1. Generally: Edit Objects ; select the class and click ADD. You can edit the value of any property by clicking the small pencil in the right side. 2. To add a tag, follow the general procedure by selecting XWiki.TagClass or simply click the plus symbol in the bottom of the document. To the left, in the same line including author and date. btw, it occurs to me that the support for section editing makes it viable to use longer pages, which will help with both page ordering and with export to PDF. Great to read this. There are a lot of work done in new procedures to avoid edition conflicts. Some devs are currently considering to improve lock to section level. -mda ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users Hope this helps to soften your XWiki learning curve! -- Ricardo Rodríguez CTO eBioTIC.

Re: [xwiki-users] grant rights to a specific user
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) wrote:
Hi,
The behavior is correct because the checking order is: page space wiki
(where a space-level setting can be superseded by a (higher ranking)
page-level setting)
That's OK but, as Wouter said, if the data model implements
real-inheritance, must not I expect that the rights explicitly granted
at space level are considered also as explicitly granted at document
level as a consequence of rights inheritance?
Thanks!
The only exception I can think off that would help your usecase (but is not
implemented) is to have additional special rights for the document Creator.
Right now the creator gets DELETE right as an additional behavior. Maybe we
should always grant VIEW and EDIT to the creator.
This way, at least, he could fix the rights behavior (by giving rights also
to GroupA).
Another thing that is missing is a warning that by giving that right, the
giver will lose it.

Hi,
We ran into a rights problem, which might be the result of ignorance, but
could also be caused by a perceptual omission in the rights model. The
following happened:
1. created space, with explicit rights on group 'GroupA' (this
automatically locks out users who are not a member of this group) = ok
2. create/edit a page as user 'UserA', member of 'GroupA' = ok
3. UserA (owner/creator of the document) grants view rights to user
'UserB', NOT in GroupA = problems!
Now the creator/owner of the document (UserA) can NOT view his own document
anymore! Same for problem for every other user in 'GroupA'.
I figured that this is correct from a certain point of view: an explicit
view for a specific user locks out all other users, but that includes the
owner and all other users, including those in 'GroupA', with correct rights
at the space level.
A possible solution is to grant GroupA explicitly at the same time you
grant a specific user access to a certain page, but people will forget to do
so.
My question is: did we do anything wrong, and is it possible to manage the
rights in a way that prevents this counter-intuitive behaviour?
I have the feeling that the rights model lacks real-inheritance: when
checking permissions for a user, it should return the permissions including
that of the group as if it were his explicit permissions, also for pages
that inherit rights from the space. E.g.
hasView('UserA') should always return 'True' when the group he belongs to
has view rights at the space level.
Now it apparently returns 'False' when there is an implicit override by
granting a user view rights. Or does inheritance from the space levels stops
working as soon as there's any kind of override on a specific page?
A possible but crude work-around could be using some intelligent trigger
functions in the database to explicitly add all rights from the space to the
specific document as soon as an XWikiRights object is written, but that's
kind of a last resort.
Could you help me? I hope for a better solution!
Thanks,
Wouter

Re: [xwiki-users] Trying to find a wiki software
Hi! Eric Tse wrote: Hey guys, just subscribed to this list. I'm currently stuck between two softwares: XWiki and Foswiki. What I'm looking for is: Speed/Performance Access control (Guests can only read and not modify, certain users can modify) Good theming/Easy theming. An overall good wiki with user-friendly UI. Foswiki is flatfile and xwiki is SQL based. I hear that SQL is generally better, is that the case? Foswiki seems to be pretty fast even if it is flatfile. Thanks :) XWiki is not only a wiki: it is a complete and powerful Java based development framework. I arrived here from MediaWiki looking for access management and I found much, much more than this. I think it is worth you give it a try! Even more: if after playing for a while in the sandbox (http://xoffice.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Sandbox/), or asking and using your own wiki in MyWiki community farm or Netcipia, or installing your own standalone installation, you know how to set up an application server and a supported RDBMS, install and give a try to the last snapshot to feel the newest improvements! Don't forget to use the Create 200 Dummy Users snippet available at... http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Snippets/Create200DummyUsersSnippet ... and play for a while with Users and Groups administration. Out of the box, XWiki features an amazingly powerful rights management system. Of course control who can read or edit a given document of a part of it is not a big issue for XWiki administrators. As for theming. Even though I think teaming is better than theming working with XWiki :-) as many other development areas, it has also evolved greatly in the last months. Some new concepts has been recently introduced, for instance check the Skin Extensions Plugin (http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/SkinExtensionsPlugin). Right now is really easy to customized colours and logos, and modify any UI characteristic by using Firefox Firebug to track the relevant CSS XWiki code. Perhaps if you only look for a classical wiki, theming is not the most friendly XWiki feature for you. But don't forget this: it is completely scalable, so you should want to forget a bit about theming for a while being sure that what you see in our UI is or will be easily customizable in a near future. XWiki is what it reads in its portal's homepage: The XWiki project offers both a generic platform for developing collaborative applications using the wiki paradigm and products developed on top of it. XWiki Enterprise should be the product you are looking for, but this is only the top of the iceberg. I'm not able to compare the use of flat-files vs RDBMS (SQL is just the standard language that allows you to query such databases). BUT, once again, don't forget that XWiki is more than a wiki. It uses a RDBMS to hold a complex object-oriented structure. You can also use its SQL plugin to query local or remote RDBMS tables, but also can its API methods to design complex queries using HQL (Hibernate Query Language) or XWQL (XWiki Query Language) More: each XWiki document could be considered a database on its own! It could be composed of an unlimited number of objects + plain or more or less structured text. Sticks with XWiki and won't only create a classical, fast and full featured wiki but discover a full and funny universe of great possibilities. And, most important of all: you will meet a great community and development team! Just my two cents!

Re: [xwiki-users] Gift for the XWiki Community
Thanks and Merry Christmas to all of you too! Maxime Sinclair wrote: Hello XWiki Community, Christmas is coming, and I have a gift for you. I hope you will enjoy it. As you may know, recently, a Brazilia advertising agency produce fake vintage ads for Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Skype. I thought these posters are really amazing. You will find the story here http://www.dailybloggr.com/2010/08/cool-vintage-ads-of-facebook-twitter-youtube-skype/ More recently, I read the book From Airline Reservations to Sonic the Hedgehog: A History of the Software Industry by Martin Campbell-Kelly (2003). Each chapter is illustrated by an official old ad of a software. And I was charmed by the poster of AUTOFLOW, showing the face of a woman with beautiful eyes. http://u1.ipernity.com/17/25/71/9552571.c1e1c1ef.jpg This give me an idea : to make a fake XWiki ad, copying the Autoflow one. Of course, XWiki is a so great wiki that it doesn't need advertising to spread the world. Maybe it can help... It's the result of this idea that I'm glad to give you today. I paid attention to produce this work with public domain material so I think I can publish this poster in the public domain (even if I'm far from being a license specialist). So I encourage you to print it on your t-shirt, on your mug, to modify it, to share it, to redistribute it. I've tried to preserve the message of the ad, just replacing some words, or at least to retain the spirit of the original sentences. But I'm sure you can find better arguments and it's easy to edit with Gimp. This page will show you the fake ad for XWiki in a small size but it's easier to compare with the original work : http://www.ipernity.com/doc/sinclair/9552524 The full work is available in a public google doc folder (you don't need to have an account) https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B2p8AuezuBCcZDc2MWY0M2EtNjBiNC00MWRmLWEzZTktNTJmOGVmMTE5MDFjhl=en - copyrights.txt describes the origins of the photo and fonts used - XWikiForChristmas.xcf is the Gimp file of the poster - XWikiForChristmas.jpg is the full resolution image (exported from Gimp) For your information, Autoflow was a software development tool that produces automatically the flowchart of a computer program. In 1965, Autoflow was the first commercial software to be sold as an independant product (not attached to a hardware device). It was a big success for ADR, its editor, with more than 1 units sold. To conclude, I hope this encourage you, the XWiki community, to develop smart features, to maintain a high level of quality and to support kindly stupid users.

Hello Ricardo,
Yes, you can use velocity code inside SSX and JSX objects. What you
need to do is to set the 'Parse content' property to 'Yes'. You can
take a look at the SSX documentation:
http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/SkinExtensionsPlugin#HTip:Howtoreferafilefromaskinextension
.
Example of usage:
#if(!$hasEdit)
#body{
background-color: red;
}
#end
This is problematic, since the extension is cached on the clientside
(browser cache). So if a user visits the wiki once unauthenticated,
after he logs in the same CSS file (already parsed) is used, so nothing
will change in the UI.
To load the re-parsed CSS, either refresh the browser cache, or you can
set the Cache property of the extension to Forbid, which is bad for
performance.
In this particular case changing the JavaScript code that loads the
annotation feature is better IMO.
I tried but failed to do that.
Ricardo, did you check
AnnotationCode.Script ? I can see these lines at the end of the second
JSX (named Annotation Javascript -- Annotation application):
// if the action on the current document is not view, don't load
annotations
if (XWiki.contextaction != view) {
return;
}
I'm sure you can extend the test for your needs.
Hope this helps,
Marius
I think I get the point. Even though I'm not able to understand this
script now or how to tweak it, I understand that this option blocks the
loading process of the annotation feature. It is cheaper to do that as
it stops a process not required for a given type of users.
But, please, one more question. When is this script executed? Each time
a document is loaded or even reloaded?
The JavaScript code of this extension is evaluated (loaded into
browser's memory) for each wiki page, and the code at the end of the
second JSX object is executed after a wiki page finished loading (in the
browser):
document.observe('xwiki:dom:loaded', function() {
... // code executed after the page finished loading.
});
Does this match your needs:
document.observe('xwiki:dom:loaded', function() {
// if the action on the current document is not view, don't load
annotations
if (XWiki.contextaction != view || !XWiki.hasEdit) {
return;
}
...// the rest of the code that loads the annotation feature.
});
It works without a glitch (XE 2.7-SNAPSHOT.32908). I think it is more
elegant than tweaking CSS and doesn't compromise performance. Thanks!
Note that XWiki.hasEdit is defined in javascript.vm .
And this is the reason why I'm not forced to include xwikivars.vm in the
modified JSX. Please, am I right? I could use !$hasEdit, but then I must
include #template('xwikivars.vm'). I've tried and it seems to work fine.
Exactly.
Please, why don't directly use !$xwiki.hasAccessLevel('edit')?
To avoid (re)evaluating/recomputing the edit right multiple times (it
may be costly). The value returned by $xwiki.hasAccessLevel('edit') is
cached in $hasEdit to speed up the page loading time. $hasEdit
(velocity, server-side) is also send to the client side in the value of
the hasEdit property of XWiki JavaScript object.
Hope this helps,
Marius
Far clear! Thanks!

Hello Ricardo,
Yes, you can use velocity code inside SSX and JSX objects. What you

You are right, Sergiu. Another solution would be to use different ssx
objects from different documents (supposing that the SSX are being
used on demand). For example:
* Space1.Page1 having an SSX object - for common styles
* Space2.Page2 having another SSX object - for users that have edit rights
In the velocity code (a template or a page in wiki mode), you can do this:
$xwiki.ssx.use('Space1.Page1')## common styles
#if($hasEdit)
$xwiki.ssx.use('Space2.Page2')## styles for users that have edit rights
#end
Raluca.
OK! Please, one question here. I see in AnnotationCode.Script two
XWiki.JavaScriptExtension objects. AnnotationCode.Style has only one
XWiki.StyleSheetExtension object and you are proposing two documents,
each of them holding one SSX object. So, I understand that only one SSX
could be hold by a document or at least only one SSX can be addressed by
each document. Am I right?
Thanks!
A document can have as many ssx or jsx object as it needs, but a skin
extension is identified by the name of the document, so in the end an
extension is a document. The content of a skin extension is the
concatenation of the objects in that document, so it's impossible to
write two different extensions in a single document, only different
parts of the same extension.
I would like to add this paragraph to...
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/SkinExtensionsTutorial#HMinimalStyleSheeteXtension
...as an {{info}} block. Do you agree? Thanks!

Thanks! It is great to be able to use Velocity inside SSX and JSX!
But I'm facing some problems. Please, see this:

/* Padding, margin and bg-position are adjusted in order to give this

padding-top: 0 !important;
padding-bottom: 4px;
margin-right: 5px !important;
margin-top: 2px !important;
#if($fruit == apple)visibility:hidden;#end
}
This evaluates correctly. But I'm not able to get this working:
#if($isGuest)visibility:hidden;#end
or
#if(!$hasEdit)visibility:hidden;#end
I've never get visibility:hidden; in. Those same expressions work fine
in a simple XWiki 1.0 syntax doc. I get visibility:hidden; printed out
when expected.
Please, do you know why these two expressions don't work inside a

I noticed that when, for instance, two users edit different sections within the same page, the latter gets the message: This object is currently locked by user1 I checked and it's possible to force editing and save both of concurrent changes to that document, but the message itself is a bit confusing to the users. I'm asking if it's possible to change xwiki configuration to not display that message when the users edit different paragraphs within the same page ? To the best of my understanding locking is set a document level. So, if any user edits a section, all other users will receive that message. I think what you are doing is a bit risky. I've had here some problems following the same problem. When an user received this message, although she/he is editing only a section, there is no way of knowing if they are in the same section or in a different one. Even more, if you edit a document using the same user at two different locations, you won't receive the locking message. Yes, I came from the Media Wiki and section editing is pretty popular way of collaborative editing ( avoiding the whole page locks ). I also arrives to XWiki from MediaWiki years ago. So, with the current MediaWiki release, is it possible to do section edition and get a warning only if two users edit the same section? Thanks! To be sure, I did some tests here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Sandbox no warnings, you can even edit the same section but then you'll need to get through the merge phase. In that case you see such a message: Someone else has changed this page since you started editing it. The upper text area contains the page text as it currently exists. Your changes are shown in the lower text area. You will have to merge your changes into the existing text. Well, I don't see this blocking behaviour working with MediaWiki sandbox... I don't know why! In any case, MediaWiki is not the case here! Just summing up: Thanks for that summary, let me comment on your thoughts: 1. Simultaneous edition is possible, but not advisable with the current XWiki release. Yes, especially that there is no merge phase after concurrent editing ( or maybe there is a 'merge plugin' - I'd be grateful for any info on that ). In that case you end up with the article content overridden by someone else and your only hope is to dig in the document's history and try to fix edits manually. 2. Locking is done at document level. Is that going to change in the future ? In my opinion that basically blocks user groups/communities from working on the documents in a collaborative way. Is it much work to make that lock 'section sensitive', architecture-wise ? If someone could describe what should be done / changed in order to achieve that, maybe we could figure out a solution for that issue. 3. A true real-time edition editor for XWiki is on its way and will solve all these issues! Well, it could be, but it's based on the js/ajax - it could be tricky to achieve a good level of compatibility between browsers ( of course it could be done, Google docs is a good example here ). Of course I'd take that right away in the stable form. But I think merging/lock on the section level could be more than enough for the ordinary wiki users ( Wikipedia is basing on that model on a huge scale and it's doing fine ;) ) It will be great if some developer or more skilled user could review this statements to confirm/deny/complete them! Thanks! I concur. Currently I'm struggling to figure out how to get over that problem. I can tell my users just to ignore the lock message, but that is not super safe and could cause a content loss/corruption. Looking forward to your feedback guys ! I do agree with you, Piotr.

I adopted this solution here sacrificing performance as I need the
described behaviour (Annotation shown only for registered users). But I
still get see some weird thing I've not been able to consistently
reproduce yet.
I'm using a XE/XEM 2.4.30451 in production and a XE 2.7-SNAPSHOT.32908
as trial environment. I'll keep this thread updated or open new ones as
required when I gather more information!
An example:
Working with a virtual wiki. I've modified AnnotationCode.Style
(XWiki.StyleSheetExtension) this way...
## Defining global variables; added by Ricardo Rodriguez on November the
15th to apply conditional rules to CSS
#template('xwikivars.vm')
/* Menu */
.actionmenu #tmAnnotations {
background-image: #imgURL('note') !important;
/* Padding, margin and bg-position are adjusted in order to give this
element
the 'tab' look when active and the settings panel is displayed */
background-position: 0 1px;
padding-right: 5px !important;
padding-top: 0 !important;
padding-bottom: 4px;
margin-right: 5px !important;
margin-top: 2px !important;
#if($isGuest)visibility:hidden;#end
}
.actionmenu #tmAnnotations a {
padding-top: 0 !important;
}
.actionmenu .active {
background-color: $theme.pageContentBackgroundColor;
##$theme.backgroundSecondaryColor;
}
.actionmenu .active a {
color: $theme.menuSelectedEntryLinkColor !important;
}
I never see Annotations in the right side of the action bar when
browsing the site as Guest. When I log in, Annotations appears. And it
persists consistently throughout the site for all spaces but those set
as exceptions in the Annotations configuration panel.
BUT, if I reload a page, any page, Annotations disappears. I cleaned the
cache, restarted the browser, restarted the computer,... Nothing. By
reloading the page several times, it ends appearing again. But I'm not
able to find a pattern.
ONE FUNNY THING: if Firebug Console is on, the reload is OK.
Annotations persists.
Those are the errors logged by Firebug:
*
xpected end of value but found ':'. Error in parsing value for
'text-transform'. Declaration dropped.

Please, any idea? I don't know if this relates with any know issue or it

Hello Ricardo,
Yes, you can use velocity code inside SSX and JSX objects. What you
need to do is to set the 'Parse content' property to 'Yes'. You can
take a look at the SSX documentation:
http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/SkinExtensionsPlugin#HTip:Howtoreferafilefromaskinextension
.
Example of usage:
#if(!$hasEdit)
#body{
background-color: red;
}
#end
This is problematic, since the extension is cached on the clientside
(browser cache). So if a user visits the wiki once unauthenticated,
after he logs in the same CSS file (already parsed) is used, so nothing
will change in the UI.
To load the re-parsed CSS, either refresh the browser cache, or you can
set the Cache property of the extension to Forbid, which is bad for
performance.
You are right, Sergiu. Another solution would be to use different ssx
objects from different documents (supposing that the SSX are being
used on demand). For example:
* Space1.Page1 having an SSX object - for common styles
* Space2.Page2 having another SSX object - for users that have edit rights
In the velocity code (a template or a page in wiki mode), you can do this:
$xwiki.ssx.use('Space1.Page1')## common styles
#if($hasEdit)
$xwiki.ssx.use('Space2.Page2')## styles for users that have edit rights
#end
Raluca.
OK! Please, one question here. I see in AnnotationCode.Script two
XWiki.JavaScriptExtension objects. AnnotationCode.Style has only one
XWiki.StyleSheetExtension object and you are proposing two documents,
each of them holding one SSX object. So, I understand that only one SSX
could be hold by a document or at least only one SSX can be addressed by
each document. Am I right?
Thanks!
Raluca.

In this particular case changing the JavaScript code that loads the

I tried but failed to do that.
Ricardo, did you check
AnnotationCode.Script ? I can see these lines at the end of the second
JSX (named Annotation Javascript -- Annotation application):
// if the action on the current document is not view, don't load annotations
if (XWiki.contextaction != view) {
return;
}
I'm sure you can extend the test for your needs.
Hope this helps,
Marius
I think I get the point. Even though I'm not able to understand this
script now or how to tweak it, I understand that this option blocks the
loading process of the annotation feature. It is cheaper to do that as
it stops a process not required for a given type of users.
But, please, one more question. When is this script executed? Each time
a document is loaded or even reloaded?
Thanks!
Raluca.

Thanks! It is great to be able to use Velocity inside SSX and JSX!
But I'm facing some problems. Please, see this:

padding-top: 0 !important;
padding-bottom: 4px;
margin-right: 5px !important;
margin-top: 2px !important;
#if($fruit == apple)visibility:hidden;#end
}
This evaluates correctly. But I'm not able to get this working:
#if($isGuest)visibility:hidden;#end
or
#if(!$hasEdit)visibility:hidden;#end
I've never get visibility:hidden; in. Those same expressions work fine
in a simple XWiki 1.0 syntax doc. I get visibility:hidden; printed out
when expected.
Please, do you know why these two expressions don't work inside a
XWiki.StyleSheetExtension object?
These variables are defined in xwikivars.vm, which is parsed when
rendering a document with the surrounding UI. You can either use the API
code that was used to set those variables, or you can add this line at
the top:
#template('xwikivars.vm')
Thanks, Sergiu. I clearly keeps failing at getting a clear general idea
about how XWiki produces the output of a document.
Time ago I started to create a kind of flowchart showing the
relationships among templates, templates and actions and actions.
Please, could you tell me if this is an good actual starting point to
understanding this process?

I noticed that when, for instance, two users edit different sections within the same page, the latter gets the message: This object is currently locked by user1 I checked and it's possible to force editing and save both of concurrent changes to that document, but the message itself is a bit confusing to the users. I'm asking if it's possible to change xwiki configuration to not display that message when the users edit different paragraphs within the same page ? To the best of my understanding locking is set a document level. So, if any user edits a section, all other users will receive that message. I think what you are doing is a bit risky. I've had here some problems following the same problem. When an user received this message, although she/he is editing only a section, there is no way of knowing if they are in the same section or in a different one. Even more, if you edit a document using the same user at two different locations, you won't receive the locking message. Yes, I came from the Media Wiki and section editing is pretty popular way of collaborative editing ( avoiding the whole page locks ). I also arrives to XWiki from MediaWiki years ago. So, with the current MediaWiki release, is it possible to do section edition and get a warning only if two users edit the same section? Thanks! To be sure, I did some tests here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Sandbox no warnings, you can even edit the same section but then you'll need to get through the merge phase. In that case you see such a message: Someone else has changed this page since you started editing it. The upper text area contains the page text as it currently exists. Your changes are shown in the lower text area. You will have to merge your changes into the existing text. Well, I don't see this blocking behaviour working with MediaWiki sandbox... I don't know why! In any case, MediaWiki is not the case here! Just summing up: Thanks for that summary, let me comment on your thoughts: 1. Simultaneous edition is possible, but not advisable with the current XWiki release. Yes, especially that there is no merge phase after concurrent editing ( or maybe there is a 'merge plugin' - I'd be grateful for any info on that ). In that case you end up with the article content overridden by someone else and your only hope is to dig in the document's history and try to fix edits manually. 2. Locking is done at document level. Is that going to change in the future ? In my opinion that basically blocks user groups/communities from working on the documents in a collaborative way. Is it much work to make that lock 'section sensitive', architecture-wise ? If someone could describe what should be done / changed in order to achieve that, maybe we could figure out a solution for that issue. 3. A true real-time edition editor for XWiki is on its way and will solve all these issues! Well, it could be, but it's based on the js/ajax - it could be tricky to achieve a good level of compatibility between browsers ( of course it could be done, Google docs is a good example here ). Of course I'd take that right away in the stable form. But I think merging/lock on the section level could be more than enough for the ordinary wiki users ( Wikipedia is basing on that model on a huge scale and it's doing fine ;) ) It will be great if some developer or more skilled user could review this statements to confirm/deny/complete them! Thanks! I concur. Currently I'm struggling to figure out how to get over that problem. I can tell my users just to ignore the lock message, but that is not super safe and could cause a content loss/corruption. Looking forward to your feedback guys ! I do agree with you, Piotr. In fact, when I present XWiki to a new group of users, this is the question I would like to avoid: how XWiki manage concurrent edition? I talk about locking behaviour and a future real-time editor

I understand that the default value, expanded, for XWiki panels is set

3. If fails to get the value from the cookie, set the value as

Thus, all panels are shown expanded by default and, to the best of my

It should work (just tried it locally), but changing macros.vm requires
that you restart the server, since the macros are loaded at startup and
cached.
Thanks, Sergiu. I've done such an amount of trials that I do need to
confirm the process step by step to avoid mess up things.
Yes, it does work. If I #set($expanded = 'collapsed') and restart the
server, all panels are shown collapsed by default.
BUT, they are showed collapsed each time a refresh the page: the cookie
is not able to remember their state. It does work if $expanded =
'expanded', but it doesn't work if $expanded = 'collapsed'.
I'm making trials with e XE 2.6-SNAPSHOT.32286
Could you figure out why? Thanks!
Because XWiki.togglePanelVisibility (xwiki.js) assumes expanded is the
default state and doesn't store a cookie when the panel is expanded
(actually, deletes the cookie when the panel is expanded).
Please open a JIRA issue (

take care of it.

Hi Ricardo,

it's just thevirtual wikis with the problems. Perhaps I've misconfigured
the Apache server running in front of Tomcat?!
The browser is Firefox (Linux and Windows) but other browsers don't work
as well. What I'm just observing is, before I log in the click in the
search field works as expected! That's excluding Apache misconfiguration
but perhaps it's a rights problem? Already observed that when we changed
the colours...
Best wishes and thanks for the help
I must recognized that I'm lost with this topic. Search... vanished in
all my installations when clicking the search field. I guess what you
want to get is this text vanished in your virtual wikis as well, don't you?
Let's summarize how the area where Search is inserted by default is
renderized.
When you load a XWiki page, a number of templates are called. global.vm,
located in your xwiki/skins/youSkin folder, contains the search
facility. We do agree about that we are talking about colibri, so
global.vm in xwiki/skins/colibri is involved in this process or a copy
of this file located in your customized skin or attached to the skin
document. There we have a label tag with for=headerglobalsearchinput
that is eventually call from the input tag that contains
id=headerglobalsearchinput. This same input has
class=globalsearchinput withTip; the class globalsearchinput is
defined in colibri.css, and the option withTip elegantly controls that
the guide text inside the field vanishes when you click on that field
to enter the string you want to look for.
In...
input class=globalsearchinput withTip id=headerglobalsearchinput
type=text name=text value=$msg.get('panels.search.inputText')
size=15/
This value= controls what guide text appears in the search field.
From here, if you have not tweaked skins, or modified in any way
templates, I'm not able to find a reason that causes that difference
between main and virtual wikis in your farm. By default, all will the
same default skin.
So, please, could you rethink what you are seeing here enlightened by
these comments or correct me if I am wrong?
Thanks!
It is for sure that I'm missing something, but I don't know why.

Re: [xwiki-users] setting expanded/collapsed initial values for $expanded in panelheader

Hi!
Following these lines in the panelheader macro un macros.vm...
#macro(panelheader $title)
#set($cookieName = ${context.user}_${panel})
#set($expanded = $xwiki.getUserPreferenceFromCookie($cookieName))
#if(!$expanded)
#set($expanded = 'expanded')
#end
I understand that the default value, expanded, for XWiki panels is set
there. This code says:
1. Set the name of the cookie that fixes the expanded/collapsed state
for a given user and panel.
2. If this cookie exists and it has this preference set, it takes the
value from it.
3. If fails to get the value from the cookie, set the value as 'expanded'
Thus, all panels are shown expanded by default and, to the best of my
understanding, setting:
#set($expanded = 'collapsed')
Must show all the panels closed.
I'm not able to get this working. Please, where am I wrong?
It should work (just tried it locally), but changing macros.vm requires
that you restart the server, since the macros are loaded at startup and
cached.
Thanks, Sergiu. I've done such an amount of trials that I do need to
confirm the process step by step to avoid mess up things.
Yes, it does work. If I #set($expanded = 'collapsed') and restart the
server, all panels are shown collapsed by default.
BUT, they are showed collapsed each time a refresh the page: the cookie
is not able to remember their state. It does work if $expanded =
'expanded', but it doesn't work if $expanded = 'collapsed'.
I'm making trials with e XE 2.6-SNAPSHOT.32286
Could you figure out why? Thanks!

Re: [xwiki-users] Automatically list and link files in a directory with Groovy
Hi!
Lockie wrote:
Hello all,
I'm running my Xwiki as an information management Intranet alongside a
networked drive that holds hundreds of documents. Based off the TODO
tutorial, I made a system of inputting these documents as objects on
individual pages that then appear on a filterable-sortable table. The link
being a windowsPath macro. The idea behind this is that users can access
these documents much easier.
So, you are using XWiki to annotate or add metainformation to files
stored in your Windows file system, on that networked hard drive. I
guess you have created a customized class where you fill in several
properties for each file. One of that properties stored the mapped path
for a given file. Provided the box where you are running the client
accessing XWiki has the correct mapping, users will be able to recover
each file by entering this path in an explorer window. What you want is
to have active links to this mapped drive.
Concerning this development I think you must be aware of the current
developments oriented to set an alternative store for attachments in the
system file. Check devs list for The future of attachments and
attachment versioning and related threads and Jira issues. Once this is
working, you could have this networked drive set as alternative storage
location. About having alternative methods to access those files...
well, we'll see! It is always tricky to access a single repository with
several, let's call them, agents (XWiki will be the primary agent, that
storing files and being able to apply all its logic to add huge amounts
of information and metainformation to each stored file).
The problem with this system is if a new document is created,
Do you mean a new file stored in the file system?
Perhaps this initiative could be useful for you by changing stored
attachments with paths/filenames in the networked drive.
Lool for [xwiki-users] Create application similar to attach file
application in the users list.
the user then
has to manually add it to this table, and if the document's title is
changed, the link gets broken. So I'm after a way of automatically listing
the documents and have working links, to make it require as little upkeep as
possible.
To avoid to get this links broken, you need to reference the files with
a UID independente from the name. By the end, even though I'm not a
developer, you will end requiring the complexity needed to develop the
alternative repository referenced above.
So far I am able to list the name and the path of all the documents in the
directory, but I need some help in integrating the sortable table html tags
and turning the path into a working link, without breaking the groovy macro.
This is what I have so far:
{{groovy}}
import groovy.io.FileType
def list = []
def dir = new File(R:/Quality/FORMS/)
dir.eachFileRecurse (FileType.FILES) { file -
list file
}
list.each {
println it.name
println it.path
}
{{/groovy}}
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,

Lockie
Finally, consider also this Jira issue about UNC paths...

Hello,
Sorry for the delay in reply.
Sergiu, that was the case. Thank you very much. :)
Ricardo, the query is to include a list of all child documents in order. I
included the curly braces in the query simply because I find it easier to
read.
Thanks, Chris. Far clear the reason to use curly braces, but I am not
able to understand the query. If I understand well, it lists all
documents with a given patent. Thus...
The given parent is the parent of the current document (the document
including the script.)
If the script is called from Main.ChildDoc and ChildDoc has a parent called
ParentDoc then
Velocity sees ${doc.parent} and replaces with Main.ParentDoc before the query
ever reaches the database.
The doc.id was a mistake and the line should read
#set($results=$xwiki.searchDocuments(where doc.hidden = false and
doc.fullName='${doc.parent}'
order by doc.title asc))ç
The other way round :-) doc.parent='${doc.fullName}'
I understand the simple logic of the query and got it working. Here a
simple snippet using 2.0 syntax for simpler reference:
{{velocity}}
**These are the children of the current page**
#set($results=$xwiki.searchDocuments(where doc.hidden = false and
doc.parent=? order by doc.title asc, [$doc.fullName]))
#foreach($item in $results)
#set ($itemdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($item))
[[$itemdoc$itemdoc]]
#end
{{/velocity}}
But we should all get in the habit of avoiding the dynamic building of
queries because it can be a
security issue. Think if doc.parent = '; drop table xwikidoc; Hibernate
won't allow that but there
are sometimes ways to fool even Hibernate.
Best practice for query security is to use:
#set($results=$xwiki.searchDocuments(where doc.hidden = false and
doc.fullName=? order by doc.title
asc, [$doc.parent]))

I'm still struggling to understand the SQL injection attack as explained
here...
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Security#HMitigationMethods-1
I'll create a simple new snippet entry once I understand it! Thanks!
{{velocity}}
#set($results=$xwiki.searchDocuments(where doc.hidden = false and
doc.id='${doc.parent}' order by doc.title asc))
#foreach($item in $results)
#set ($itemdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($item))
[$item$item],
#end
{{/velocity}}
must list all documents having ${doc.parent} as parent. So, included in
a page ICT.WebHome, must list all child documents having ICT.WebHome as
parent, mustn't it?
Well, I get nothing by including this snippet in such ICT.WebHome page.
And there are 50 documents that have this age as parent page!
Please, where am I wrong?
One more things. Please, how is it possible to compare doc.id and
$doc.parent? As far as I understand, doc.id maps to XWD_ID in xwikidoc
table (it is a bigint(20) field). And $doc.parent invokes getParent()
and gets a string in the form Space.Document. Thus, how is it possible
to compare both values?
Thanks for your help!

There are two types of titles.

Display titles are computed from the document title, first heading from

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.

Abel

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

To be sure, I did some tests here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Sandbox no warnings, you can even edit the same section but then you'll need to get through the merge phase. In that case you see such a message: Someone else has changed this page since you started editing it. The upper text area contains the page text as it currently exists. Your changes are shown in the lower text area. You will have to merge your changes into the existing text. Well, I don't see this blocking behaviour working with MediaWiki sandbox... I don't know why! In any case, MediaWiki is not the case here! Just summing up: 1. Simultaneous edition is possible, but not advisable with the current XWiki release. 2. Locking is done at document level. 3. A true real-time edition editor for XWiki is on its way and will solve all these issues! It will be great if some developer or more skilled user could review this statements to confirm/deny/complete them! Thanks! In fact it was one of the reason I've chosen XWiki ( possibility to edit sections ). In my case, it could happen that several people work on the same document at once, so sections could preserve the separation of their work. But the solution to this situation is on its way! Are you aware of this? http://markmail.org/thread/erlky73x5np3gllh That is really interesting, will try it if that's possible. Hope this helps! Ricardo Thank you Ricardo !

Re: [xwiki-users] Create application similar to attach file application
Thanks!

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/HasAttachment
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!

Actually I've been thinking maybe we could provide a Macros/ space
with XE. The home page would be a improved version of the current
XWiki.WikiMacros page (adding for example a ClassSheet for macros, a
form to create a new macro, some documentation, etc.)
WDYT?
This polishing would empower a standard user to use this XWiki advanced
feature.
I don't quite agree. Standard users shouldn't see this space. it's
something technical and 99% of wiki users don't want/need to see it (and
they won't even understand it). So for me this space would need to be
hidden from simple users (same as for other tech spaces).
Then we should probably hide them from the WYSIWYG tooIbar too, I guess ;)
Seriously, the space could be blacklisted, but it should be discussed,
I'm not sure we want to have only admins seing it (personally I see
that space as being documentation on macros existing in the wiki
before being a place to create new macros - so not so technical in
the end).
The reason is simple. Most people come to the wiki as a place where to find
information (not as contributors) and they'll see the list of spaces listed
on the home page mixed with spaces containing real content for that wiki. All
I want is a separation between business content and technical content. I'm
fine if we have 2 space lists on the home page, one for each type of content.
But I really don't like to mix the two kind of content.
This categorization would also welcome here. It is been hard to me to
explain to regular users what is the difference between business
content and technical content as Vicent called that different nature
documents. Even talking with tech-skilled people, is by no means easy to
explain that one thing are contents produced by the community they are
going to create/support by using a new XWiki installation and the
contains produced/updated by the XWiki community in subsequent releases.
To tag in any simple way those contents in a way they could be
hidden/shown, could even also helps, IMO, the upgrade and backup operations.
Just my two cents.
Maybe in some distant future we should have an intermediary level
between Normal users and Admins. BTW do users that chose to be
Advanced Users in their profile see the blacklisted spaces ?
yes.
Maybe
the intermediary level could be this one.
I don't think we need one ATM.
I'm not sure what the proposal is about exactly.
Well it's not a proposal yet, rather an idea.
Some open questions: Would the macros stay where they are currently located?
If you ask me some should be moved already (like {{spaces}} and
{{tags}}), since they are located in documents that already have
another purpose, and thus can not benefit from a potential
WikiMacroClassSheet (that for example could display the usage of the
macro and its parameters ; thus becoming a sort of self-contained
documentation for the held macro)
Well I'm not sure. IMO the dashboard should be moved to a dashboard
application and that spaces macro could be moved to that dashboard
application.
Recent Activity should be moved to an Activity application too and the
activity macro there too.
Basically I still believe strongly that we need to list all our default XE
pages and assign them an application. I had done that exercise one and
created the jira components in XE asa result. Maybe we should revisit this
and do this mapping now?
Shouldn't macros stay with their apps?
Yes they should.
Right now we don't even have a rule for where to put applications
documents (in their own space ? with a Code suffix ? in the XWiki
space ? somewhere else ?)
Yes we need to define that too. We've been quite poor in term of wiki content
organization and as a result I feel that our default wiki content is a bit of
a disorganized mess. We should improve. Want to lead a proposal?
I think the (not existing) UI at Macros.WebHome should retrieve and
list documents from the entire wiki, not just the Macros space.
I agree
Same
as the scheduler (I changed that behavior just recently by the way - I
wanted my application scheduler jobs in my application space, not in
the Scheduler space - see http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XASCH-56)
Yep seen that and I agree.
Does it mean a new platform/application in svn?
There is already one : the wikibridge I think, with just one
document now (the name is not correct though, I agree)
Agree, it's a good place and it should be renamed or merged with

From the committers' point of view, it makes perfect sense for 3.0 to be the culmination of the 2.x releases, but I'm not sure the users understand this as well, so I'm extending the question to the users list. Traditionally, proprietary software is developed behind the curtains, and it's normal to have one big release every two years, with lots of new features and some bugs which get fixed in subsequent bugfix releases. Marketing comes mostly from the proprietary software world, so from a marketing point of view, this is the normal way releases work. In the open source world, since the development is done in the open, it doesn't make sense to stash code away in a repository and only release it once every two years. Still, most big projects use a release versioning scheme similar to the proprietary products, but with a slight difference which deeply changes the meaning. While proprietary products use only a number (3, 8, 2010...), with eventual bugfixes versions (SP2, 5.5), open source usually has 3 numbers in its versions, with the following meanings: The first number changes rarely, and when it does, it signals a critical change, like a complete rewrite of the codebase, a change of paradigm, or major new features. The second number is the one that actually identifies a release. The third number is the bugfix version. So, when we say that PHP 5.3.2 was released, we actually say that version 3 of PHP5, which is a different thing than PHP4, has been released again, giving the second bugfix release. KDE 4.5.1 means version 5 of KDE4 saw its first bugfix release. Another tendency is for open source software to linger towards a major release. For example, lots of software have a lot of releases before 1.0, going nearer and nearer: 0.6, 0.9, 0.9.9... And everybody knows that 0.x comes before 1.0, and it's not just a bugfix version of an imaginary 0.0 release. A different topic is that of agile development, with very short releases (2-3 weeks) for which traditional version number make no sense, since such a product would reach version 42 in a couple of years. Either an identifier, such as the SCM version number is used, or a continuous counter (v1.42) is used. Since the software evolves in a fluid manner, without a breakthrough version coming out of the regular releases, a major version is released when the current features are stable and they mix well together in a coherent product. Since releases come so frequently, it's normal for users to be split into two categories: those that follow the releases and know how the software is evolving, and those that only monitor the major releases, and which see all the continuous improvements at once. While XWiki Enterprise is used in the enterprise environment, and it is backed by commercial companies, it is a true open source project, following an open source release model, so I don't think that a proprietary product release scheme is suited. Our development/release style is closer to the agile development practice, albeit with mixed release types. In the future, once the core is more stable than it is now, we'd like to move even closer to a full agile release process, with 2-3 weeks between final releases. Thus, I believe that the last release versioning strategy is the best for XWiki Enterprise. Note that we're already using this strategy in a more obvious way for smaller modules (applications, skins, tools), where we do have 1.32 as a stable version number. Also note that although 1.9 was followed by 2.0, this was just a coincidence, and not a natural version evolution, since we also felt that the code was mature enough to receive a major number

Or something new as it is fixed in trunk for 2.6 (warning: I've not a
clear idea about what this means concerning snapshots!) Let's see what
others has to say about this! I'll update the snapshot I've in my

before next Tuesday though.
By chance I can used URL later in my code without retrieving content.
So, I can do without, but I will follow correction.

Hi,

You are very right, If users are redirected to their profile they are not
forced to enter any extra data.
But we will put a text in the profile page that it would be very helpfull if
they did;
If they do not, we will not add them to to more functional group, so, i hope,
it is also in their interest
if they want more functionality. This is, by means a manual process, we do
not want that the WIKI is crowded with visitors
that do not ADD to our community
I think Curriki people have done a nice work to create a custimized
registering process. Do you know Curriki? Check this...
http://www.curriki.org
Register yourself and will see the look and feel of the process.
One principle is that I try to do everything from within the WIKI and stay
away from configuration files.
WE are hosting our wiki on a external system, so it is difficult to get
access to filesystem anyway!
Second; we are fully happy with the default behaviour of to what groups a
registered user is added after registration
I do agree with this approach. It also helps in the upgrade process.
There are a number of extension things playing around lately in XWiki
that is worth to pay attention to! For JavaScript and Stylesheet
extensions seam simply great... even though I'm not able to use them
yet! :-) The Extensions Manager will ease the process.
Regarding the modification of the login.vm, I think it is quite simple
to copy login.vm to a customized skin.
Regarding the login.vm modification
(snippet from default login.vm in XWIKI 2.5

I think I should inject the code after #if ($xcontext.user !=

I'm always trying to keep standard XWIKI code as supplied with the product as
standard as possible, otherwise
I'm facing more complex upgrade paths?
Have you tried this? I'm not able to get it working. Or there is some

XWiki.RogerGoldman is a dummy user and it exists. It works when included

Right, by default. You should want to consider these two parameters in

default value)
#-# List of groups that a new user should be added to by default after
registering. Comma-separated list of group document
#-# names.

If this condition is true; we would like to ask the user to 'tell us more
about yourself' by re-directing to the profile
But redirecting to her/his profile doesn't enforce more information to
be entered. Please, how are you planning to get that? Users can just
arrive to their profiles and to enter nothing.
Updating the userprofile with extra data; with this data we can then add
the user to appropriate group(s)
I understand : the $query will give all groups in the wiki except
XWikiAllGroup
Yes, the query retrieves all documents with an instance

Nothing to do with the script. 've had to restart the server due to a

I'll try later to inject the script in this template.

Hi, jminne wrote: Oh! so xwiki.org has a register link, but the sub wikis only have a login link. That seems odd to me. Yeap, perhaps the register link should be available in all and every page a guest visit in the first visits to the xwiki.org ecosystem. As happens to you, if you decide to log in a site other than the main wiki, xwiki.org, you only see a log in link, but not the register one. It is not a problem for people understanding the environment, but it is by no means obvious for first time or occasional visitors. Let see what others have to say!
