[xwiki-devs] [ANN] XWiki 6.4 Released
by vincent＠massol.net 21 Jan '15

21 Jan '15

The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki 6.4. The 6.4 release is the last major release of the 6.x development Cycle and as such was mainly dedicated to improvements and bugfixes on things introduced during 6.X. This version introduces some developer oriented improvements: allow wiki based skins to overwrite macro.vm template, allow filesystem skins indicating explicitly the skin they are inheriting from, allow any component to be injected with its ComponentDescriptor, Panels and UI extensions are now executed with the right of their author so among other things they can use APIs requiring Programming rights. It also brings UI improvements in the Menu application, a new Mail application (and Mail-related improvements, such as the ability to send massive number of emails) and lots of Flamingo skin improvements (Mobile-friendliness to mention one), while offering developers the ability to write LESS in Skin Extensions, and a cool icon picker. Last but not least, this version provides the ability to rate Extensions inside the Extension Repository and visualise them inside the Extension Manager. You can download it here: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download Make sure to review the release notes: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki64 Thanks -The XWiki dev team

[xwiki-devs] [PROPOSAL] What default base skin for wiki skins
by Thomas Mortagne 21 Jan '15

21 Jan '15

Since 6.2 (and XE-1419) there is no base skin by default which mean that if you forget to set a base skin in your wiki skin it inherit directly from /templates and /resources. XE-1419 was done mostly to make sure colibri and flamingo were not going to inherit from each other. This leaded to http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-11443, I see several possibility to close this issue: 1) won't fix, if you want a default base skin then just set it in xwiki.cfg 2) put back the default skin in xwiki.defaultbaseskin (so flamingo) in xwiki.cfg 3) force wiki skin to fallback in default skin The issue with 3) is that it makes impossible to do a wiki skin from scratch (why not ?). Now that filesystem skin explicitly indicate there parent skin 2) is not a problem anymore for them so we could put it back, I guess my +1 goes to than and that's what I will do to unlock 6.4 if there is no answer. I don't have a strong opinion on it since I pretty much never ever do any wiki skin, just want to close this issue... -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] [QA] Feedback for 6.4
by Manuel Smeria 20 Jan '15

20 Jan '15

Hello devs, During the past days I have started testing 6.4RC1 on multiple browsers: IE10, IE11, Firefox & Chrome. I have been doing the manual tests listed on the Test Reporting Wiki (http://test.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome) a place where any user can help by doing some tests. I know XWiki 6.4 is scheduled to be released within the next days. I will continue with the manual tests, go through the list of bugs fixed for 6.4 and also take a look at the new features. Besides these, do you want something else tested as well ? Thank you, Manuel

[xwiki-devs] LDAP Authentication - Restrict to many groups
by DAL MOLIN, Sandrine (DIMENSION DATA) 16 Jan '15

16 Jan '15

Hello to the Wiki team! I'm facing an issue, as I need to limit the XWiki access to users which are on several GGM groups (LDAP). The "RESTRICT TO GROUP" field in the LDAP menu can only support 1 group, and the LDAP syntax doesn't work to add the others. I saw the issue "XWIKI-2518 - Support multiple include/exclude filter in LDAP authentication" is still opened. Do you know how can I add the other groups? Can I use a specific syntax?

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Use the "@Rule ExpectedException" strategy for asserting exception in unit tests
by vincent＠massol.net 15 Jan '15

15 Jan '15

Hi devs, I’d like to propose that we use the strategy described at https://github.com/junit-team/junit/wiki/Exception-testing (thanks to Lyes for pointing out this page to me). For example: @Test public void sendSynchronousWithErrors() throws Exception { ... this.thrown.expect(MessagingException.class); this.thrown.expectMessage("Some messages have failed to be sent for the following reasons: " + "[[[errorsummary1],[errordescription1]][[errorsummary2],[errordescription2]]]"); this.mocker.getComponentUnderTest().send(Arrays.asList(message), session); } I feel it’s slightly better than our current idiom based on try/catch. One advantage is that we cannot forget to put the fail(). WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Contrib] Request repository for "Review Pages" Application
by Clemens Klein-Robbenhaar 14 Jan '15

14 Jan '15

Hello devs, I would like to create a repository on xwiki-contrib for a "Review Pages" application. Name: application-reviewpages Description: This application allows to maintain list of wiki pages that needs to be reviewed from time to time, together with a date for the next review for each page. It is actually nothing like the review macro at https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/macro-reviews instead it just allows you to tick off pages as "yes, I have reviewed it, and it looks ok now" (possibly after fixes) Maybe someone knows a better name for it? The idea is to use this for "quality audits" of these pages, though in the current state the application is not there yet. State: This App is not released on e.x.o yet, but I plan to do a first release as soon as possible It is running locally and a (german language) demo is at http://qualitaetsmanagement.wiki.espresto.de/wiki/bin/view/ReviewPages/WebH… (user/passwd: test:test already filled in, just click the blue button ;)) Tools: git repo, JIRA project. (Integration in the continuous build process is *not* needed.) Cheers, Clemens

Well you seems to have a Java issue but no idea how you can end up with the build complaining about /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/../lib/tools.jar. What version of Maven are you using ? Most of us (and more importantly the build agents) are still using 3.0.5.
