Re: [xwiki-users] Creating Nested Page Hierarchies

[Personal]

So after looking through the API docs I see that $xwiki.searchDocuments is also 
deprecated so I have updated my code to:

{{velocity}}
#set($query="where doc.space='$doc.getSpace()'")
#set($results = false)
#set($results = $services.query.xwql($query).execute())
#foreach($docname in $results)
#set($rdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($docname))
[[$rdoc.getDisplayTitle()>>$rdoc.fullName]]
#end
{{/velocity}}

The query service works as intended providing pages in order (of creation or 
ascending I a not sure) but the parent is also listed. After looking over the 
documents Vincent referenced for nested pages again I can understand why the 
WebHome page is listed as also located within it’s own space. Any advice on how 
to remove it from my query results or processing by the foreach loop?

Jesse Bright

Re: [xwiki-users] Creating Nested Page Hierarchies

[Personal]

I am attempting to utilize the example code from the links I mentioned earlier 
but update it to reflect that the parent-child relationship is deprecated under 
the new Nested Pages concept. This is the code I have so far:

{{velocity}}
#set($query="where doc.space='$doc.getSpace()'")
#set($results = false)
#set($results = $xwiki.searchDocuments($query, 10, 0))
#set($first = true)
#foreach($docname in $results)
#set($rdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($docname).getTranslatedDocument())
[[$rdoc.getDisplayTitle()>>$rdoc.fullName]]
#end
{{/velocity}}

It works to a point but the results look like this:

Test Child 2 
Test Child 6 
Test 
Test Child 1 
Test Child 3 
Test Child 5 
Test Child 0 
Test Child 4 

The ‘Test’ page listed represents the page containing the code which I would 
consider the parent or container page and the nested pages are in no 
discernible order. These nested pages were all generated with a script (if 
helpful I can provide the code) using an array of names and a foreach loop, so 
I would expect that they were created in the order the names were provided in 
the array which was ascending order. Also I notice that alphanumeric sort order 
seems to be the default in Xwiki so I am a little surprised by these results.

Any helpful advice you can provide to remove the container page and sort the 
results would be appreciated.

Jesse Bright

Never mind, I found these after I posted:

I had search for this before but without including 'velocity' in the search I

[xwiki-users] Creating Nested Page Hierarchies

[Personal]

I am creating a knowledge base for a local municipal code which follows a 
typical book hierarchy. I plan on using nested pages to create a pages 
hierarchy for navigating and searching the code text at different levels. For 
example each end page would have a space path like so:

Title 19.Part 2.Chapter 4.Section 100
Title 19.Part 2.Chapter 4.Section 200
etc.

Currently I am using a Velocity macro to create links to each child page and at 
the chapter level I also start including the child pages. I then follow the 
links to make the child pages. This works relatively well but has a couple of 
disadvantages. 1) It is slow to create each page by repeatedly following the 
links, selecting the template and pasting the next tier of code. 2) It 
hardcodes the child page names which if changed (say due to a typo) must be 
updated by hand each time.

I am wondering if there is a more efficient way that I can automate the page 
and link creation process. Ideally I would have a way to create the complete 
page hierarchy by providing the names and levels of each page with the same 
code in each page providing a link to each child of that page. Then I could 
paste the content text into each page at the end of the branch. I have done 
something similar to this using Jeykell but that is much simpler as it is 
static content based on the file structure. If I am going about this all the 
wrong way I am open to other suggestions.

Jesse
