Re: [xwiki-users] A Real tutorial for creating Skins and Template ...
Thanks for you help, i doesn't know this technique but i do same thing (i
think) overriding stylesheets by the Xwiki.XWikiSkins class...
When i say from scratch i heard in darkness with firebug without knowing
the tree of stylesheets and their roles. I would love to have a map of
XWikiskins / toucan / albatross skin , perhaps because i'm not the real
developper's profile, and because i think it could help me to save lot of
time!!
What you explain is not really what i want to do, even if its just an
example. Our goal for now, is to use xwiki for our website too, like
http://www.xwiki.com http://www.xwiki.com , it seems not really difficult if
i have more documentation, but a real puzzle without.

I don't know if it's worth understanding from scratch.
What about understanding it from firebug, in firefox, on a working xwiki
page. This includes changing the stylesheet live to make it look like you
want it to. Once you've got some things working, figure out how to make
your
settings work as !override forms in a standalone CSS file.
Then just go to Administrate Wiki-Presentation, andadd the following to
HTTP Meta Information:
link rel=stylesheet
href=$xwiki.getURL(Macros.MyStyleOverride,view,xpage=plain)
type=text/css /
The above will override for the whole site. To be safe, I suggest trying
out
stylesheet override changes on a specific space where you can do
experiments
w/o messing up the site for everybody else. This is done by using
Administrate Space-Presentation-HTTP Meta Information
Once you've decided the location, create a stylesheet as a document called
for example, Macros.MyStyleOverride
$response.setContentType(text/css)
{pre}
/* place all overrides to default stylesheet here */
/* example: .rssfeed
{border:0px!important;padding:0px!important;width:100%!important;} */
{/pre}
(suggest starting out with an empty Macros.MyStyleOverride then adding new
styles individually, and shift-reloading to force all the stylesheets to
reload on each test).
Of course I haven't tried the above yet, other than for a different
example
that uses the same technique/hack but locally rather than globally... but
I
plan to do this some more soon.

Subject: generalizing Radeox RSS:FEED macro in Xwiki
From: Niels Mayer nielsma...@gmail.com
To: XWiki Users users@xwiki.org
(1) Create a stylesheet
http://nielsmayer.com/xwiki/bin/view/Macros/styledRSS?xpage=plain
Which is a document
http://nielsmayer.com/xwiki/bin/view/Macros/styledRSS?viewer=code with
following wikicode:
$response.setContentType(text/css)
{pre}
.rssfeed
{border:0px!important;padding:0px!important;width:100%!important;}
{/pre}
(2) Refer to that stylesheet wherever you want/need the RSS:FEED macro to
appear sized to the container displaying it, e.g. to make a Panel
display
feed contents:
link rel=stylesheet
href=$xwiki.getURL(Macros.styledRSS,view,xpage=plain)
type=text/css /
#panelheader('Twitter Lyme')
{rss:feed=
http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=Lyme+Disease|count=5|img=false|full=false|search=true
}
#panelfooter()
The results:
http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/bin/view/Panels/Twitter+Lyme
http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/bin/view/Panels/Twitter+Morgellons
http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/bin/view/Panels/Google+News+Lyme
http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/bin/view/Panels/Google+News+Morgellons
(3) You can change the way your feed presents in your XWiki user page,
e.g.
http://nielsmayer.com/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/NielsMayer
is done by placing the following in the Description field of the User
document:
link rel=stylesheet
href=$xwiki.getURL(Macros.styledRSS,view,xpage=plain)
type=text/css /
{rss:feed=
http://nielsmayer.com/roller/NielsMayer/feed/entries/rss|count=50|img=true|full=false|search=true
}
(4) Using the same stylesheet hack along with documented information on
the
radeox RSS macro ( http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Macros/RssMacro )
one can assemble numerous feeds in one page, fully expanded, with space
for
images, etc:

The problem with developing from scratch is that you have to develop from scratch...

It also doesn't help that there's no formal way of defining, enforcing, or testing the semantics occurring between DOM/CSS and javascript and velocity... other than poking at it in different browsers and looking at how it behaves under the microscope of 'firebug.' Also, my hack can be done interactively by editing a xwiki document containing the css data, whereas the correct approach requires editing XWikiSkins in the class editor, or the installation of a skin either as files at the apache level (assuming you front your xwiki with httpd), or into the servlet container itself requiring a relaunch for each iteration of what is supposed to be rapid prototyping. My hack enables rapid prototyping, but is less efficient as it requires all the overhead of an extra xwiki document (the override css file) getting created or loaded from the cache for each page. There's no question that if you're building http://idiva.com or http://www.bestventes.com then my hack is not the way to go. However, it might be the way to make incremental changes to the existing CSS before rolling the changes back into the skin and pushing out a new release. One question is could the overriding approach suggested by my hack be integrated directly into Admin-Presentation by having an wiki-specific area in which CSS overrides reside. From there, some of the more common customizations (e.g. changing the header-image and dimensions, changing the background fill/color/pixmap, transparency on/off, etc) could be done in the web-GUI by a wiki-owner, rather than becoming a sysadmin task. FYI, here's the approach suggested in the documentation: To start, the best is to copy-paste the original content and make a slight modification. If you want to derive your skin from another skin, you should write the name of the skin to derive in the baseskin textfield at the bottom of the page. It is possible to modify the other templates. To do so you need to edit the XWiki.XWikiSkins class using the Class Editor ( http://yourserver/xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiSkins?xpage=editclasshttp://%3cyourserver%3e/xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiSkins?xpage=editclass) and add a TextArea field that has the name of the template (for instance if you want to modify viewheader.vm which takes care of the action bar at the top, you need to create a TextArea field named viewheader.vm) Once you have make some modifications, you can test your skin by adding the skin=Main.MySkinPage at the end of the URL. For example if you are creating a skin on yourserver, you can test the skin on the Home Page at http://yourserver/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?skin=Main.MySkinPagehttp://%3cyourserver%3e/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?skin=Main.MySkinPage Finally, when you are really happy with your skin, you can apply the skin to the whole wiki or to a space by modifying the skin field in the XWiki or Web Preferences. You should also modify the default and alternative styles (If you haven't created alternative styles, put 'style.css' in both fields) Niels http://nielsmayer.com ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [xwiki-users] A Real tutorial for creating Skins and Template ...
i'm ok with your hack, i tested it and his approach is effectivly more intuitive. But I have no problem with the method, my original question was just to know if a better tutorial was done since the time of Vincent Massol and Sergiu Dumitriu-2 was talking about above in this topic. I think it was a good idea, even if exist hack and others solutions in darkness of course, that we are oblige to use without. About my from scratch expression, it don't fit. I don't want to reinvent the wheel, and rewrite all existing and certainly very good code present in xwiki and skins. I just want to understand it and his map. I had found in another old topic definitions of css files and their roles, but its fit of very old version and lot of files seems obsolete today..

I'm sorry to dig up this topic but, Is this tutorial was created since Oct 17, 2008? and this much cleaner and modular skin was it already done, or still not?

We decided to clean the skins at least 6 months ago and we're far from there yet. So it'd be better to have a quick tutorial now rather than wait for several more months ;) So if a contributor (someone who has created a skin) can write a quick one it'll help a lot others.
