Ricardo (and anyone else who like me needed to do more with users and groups
than xwiki provides by default),
This may help you get started and save time. I have added a bunch of extra
properties to users to store more information by changing XWikiUserSheet and
use velocity to display the information in useable ways. Below is the basics of
a page I have for simply displaying all the info for every user of the wiki,
although in our case it has a bunch of custom properties. Following that is
some code to show users in each group.
/**Start code here**/
All Team Members on the Wiki (using velocity)
#set ($sql = ", BaseObject as obj where obj.name=doc.fullName and
obj.className='XWiki.XWikiUsers'")
#set ($allUsers = $xwiki.searchDocuments($sql))
Click User name to get more information or edit profile
<table id="userTable" class="grid sortable filterable doOddEven"
cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" nowrap>
<tr class="sortHeader">
<th>User</th>
<th>Project</th>
<th>Email</th>
<th>Company</th>
</tr>
#foreach ($user in $allUsers)
#set ($userdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($user))
#set ($em = $userdoc.display("email","view",$user))
<tr>
<td>[$userdoc.first_name $userdoc.last_name | $userdoc] </td>
<td> $userdoc.display("other_info","view",$user)</td>
<td>[$em | mailto:$em ]</td>
<td> $userdoc.display("company","view",$user)</td>
</tr>
#end
</table>
/**END xwiki code
/**Start code here**/
Get the email of all users in a group (using velocity)
#set ($sql = ", BaseObject as obj where obj.name=doc.fullName and
obj.className='XWiki.XWikiGroups'")
#set ($allGroups = $xwiki.searchDocuments($sql))
#foreach ($group in $allGroups)
1.1 $group
#set ($groupdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($group))
#set ($groupMembers =
$util.sort($xwiki.rightsmanager.getAllMembersNamesForGroup($groupdoc.name)))
#foreach ($mem in $groupMembers)
#set ($userdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($mem))
#set ($em = $userdoc.display("email","view",$mem))
$em<br>
#end
#end
