Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-users] Description and priority list for XWiki translations
by Valdis Vītoliņš 23 Feb '15

To manage translations better I've updated http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/L10N/StatusByLanguage page which generates links to translation pages. I added JavaScript sorting, which seems to work only alphabetically :-/ When I work on laptop, I haven't enough screen to fully see translation tables, therefore I added XWiki.StyleSheetExtension with dynamic style which hides panel on smaller width. @media (max-width: 1366px) { #leftPanels, #rightPanels { display: none; } #contentcolumn div.main.layoutsubsection { margin: 0 !important; } div#contentcolumn div.main.layoutsubsection { padding: 0 !important; } } Can anybody with appropriate rights add and include similar object to Translation class http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/L10NCode/TranslationFileClassSheet20 Also. And maybe add similar JavaSript sorting for translation tables also? (Or somebody could give modify permissions for valdisvi user to this class.) It would improve usability a lot. Thanks!

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Improving our functional test framework: XWikiWebDriver + Automated speed check
by vincent＠massol.net 22 Feb '15

22 Feb '15

Hi devs, I’m working on improving our test framework by doing the following: * Introduce a wrapping RemoteWebDriver called XWikiWebDriver * Move all the generic methods (i.e. that are not related to XWiki’s specific UI) we have in TestUtil + BaseElement into XWikiWebDriver (all the findElement(s)WithoutWaiting(), hasElement*(), waitFor*(), etc). The idea is simply to augment the WebDriver-provided APIs with all the methods we have created because they were useful to us. * Add an automated check when calling method that wait (e.g. findElement(), findElements()) so that if the timeout is incurred, we fail the test. The reason is that if we incur the timeout it means the test itself is not doing it right and is taking too much time! Let me know if you don’t agree with something (as quickly as possible since I’ve already spent a few hours on it ;)). Thanks! -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Inject Warning in Page when Macro in Space not exists
by Matthias Wegner 21 Feb '15

21 Feb '15

Hi All, i want to put a {{warning}} in the header of a page when a specific macro is not contained. How can i do that. I tried in a Listener when the needed Macro-Block is not contained with doc.getXDOM().getRoot().addChild(new WordBlock("{{warning}}Warning Text.{{/warning}}")); context.getWiki().saveDocument(doc, context); This not works. What is the correct way to manipulate the Document DOM on Load?

[xwiki-devs] Overwrite Method of Component in Velocity
by Matthias Wegner 21 Feb '15

21 Feb '15

Hi All, I want to create a component where i can overwrite a method of the component from velocity or groovy script inside a wiki page. Its also fine if i can "read" a groovy script to the component so i can use the defined logic. Maybe i have to use a own programmed macro for that. Is that possible? Do you use something similar somewhere?

[xwiki-devs] Fw: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Solr 5.0.0 and Reference Guide for Solr 5.0 released
by vincent＠massol.net 21 Feb '15

21 Feb '15

FYI. Could be interesting for us to upgrade. Don’t know if it’s backward compatible with 4.x or not though. Thanks -Vincent On 21 Feb 2015 at 01:05:53, Anshum Gupta (anshum(a)apache.org) wrote: 20 February 2015, Apache Solr™ 5.0.0 and Reference Guide for Solr 5.0 available The Lucene PMC is pleased to announce the release of Apache Solr 5.0.0 Solr is the popular, blazing fast, open source NoSQL search platform from the Apache Lucene project. Its major features include powerful full-text search, hit highlighting, faceted search, dynamic clustering, database integration, rich document (e.g., Word, PDF) handling, and geospatial search. Solr is highly scalable, providing fault tolerant distributed search and indexing, and powers the search and navigation features of many of the world's largest internet sites. Solr 5.0 is available for immediate download at: http://lucene.apache.org/solr/mirrors-solr-latest-redir.html See the CHANGES.txt file included with the release for a full list of details. Solr 5.0 Release Highlights: * Usability improvements that include improved bin scripts and new and restructured examples. * Scripts to support installing and running Solr as a service on Linux. * Distributed IDF is now supported and can be enabled via the config. Currently, there are four supported implementations for the same: * LocalStatsCache: Local document stats. * ExactStatsCache: One time use aggregation * ExactSharedStatsCache: Stats shared across requests * LRUStatsCache: Stats shared in an LRU cache across requests * Solr will no longer ship a war file and instead be a downloadable application. * SolrJ now has first class support for Collections API. * Implicit registration of replication,get and admin handlers. * Config API that supports paramsets for easily configuring solr parameters and configuring fields. This API also supports managing of pre-existing request handlers and editing common solrconfig.xml via overlay. * API for managing blobs allows uploading request handler jars and registering them via config API. * BALANCESHARDUNIQUE Collection API that allows for even distribution of custom replica properties. * There's now an option to not shuffle the nodeSet provided during collection creation. * Option to configure bandwidth usage by Replication handler to prevent it from using up all the bandwidth. * Splitting of clusterstate to per-collection enables scalability improvement in SolrCloud. This is also the default format for new Collections that would be created going forward. * timeAllowed is now used to prematurely terminate requests during query expansion and SolrClient request retry. * pivot.facet results can now include nested stats.field results constrained by those pivots. * stats.field can be used to generate stats over the results of arbitrary numeric functions. It also allows for requesting for statistics for pivot facets using tags. * A new DateRangeField has been added for indexing date ranges, especially multi-valued ones. * Spatial fields that used to require units=degrees now take distanceUnits=degrees/kilometers miles instead. * MoreLikeThis query parser allows requesting for documents similar to an existing document and also works in SolrCloud mode. * Logging improvements: * Transaction log replay status is now logged * Optional logging of slow requests. Solr 5.0 also includes many other new features as well as numerous optimizations and bugfixes of the corresponding Apache Lucene release. Detailed change log: http://lucene.apache.org/solr/5_0_0/changes/Changes.html Also available is the Solr Reference Guide for Solr 5.0. This 535 page PDF serves as the definitive user's manual for Solr 5.0. It can be downloaded from the Apache mirror network: https://s.apache.org/Solr-Ref-Guide-PDF Please report any feedback to the mailing lists (http://lucene.apache.org/solr/discussion.html) Note: The Apache Software Foundation uses an extensive mirroring network for distributing releases. It is possible that the mirror you are using may not have replicated the release yet. If that is the case, please try another mirror.

[xwiki-devs] Questions about fixing getRenderedContent() bug
by Vincent Massol 18 Feb '15

18 Feb '15

Hi, Im trying to fix http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4274 Basically if you do $xwiki.getDocument("someDoc").getRenderedContent() it'll get executed in the context of the current doc which I believe is wrong especially since other signatures of getRenderedContent() execute in the target document's context. I have fixed this locally but found that admin.vm for example is assuming that getRenderedContent() will get executed in the context of the calling doc (i.e. XWiki.Import when doing an import for example). FYI the chain flow is admin.vm -- getRenderedContent() --> XWiki.AdminSheet --> XWiki.AdminImportSheet --> importinline.vm, which requires the current doc to be XWiki.Import (to get/put attachments from/to it). I can fix this easily using a new getRenderedContent signature I've introduced. However I'm wondering if we have other places that incorrectly use getRenderedContent() and assume it won't be rendered in the context of the target document. Is this change too dangerous to make? If not know, we'll need to it quickly (2.1M1?) since it's an important bug IMO. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Discussion] Making XObjects work across languages
by Guillaume Lerouge 18 Feb '15

18 Feb '15

Hi guys, I met an issue recently on a project. We'd like to build an XWiki-based website that will be available in several languages. We'd like to use structured data, which means using XObjects. Unfortunately at the moment XObjects are not internationalized: they're available only in one language, even if a page exists in 2+ languages. A common workaround is to either duplicate all fields in the object (say, "type_FR" and "type_EN") or have 1 object per language, with a field handling the language property. In either way, custom sheets need to be developed to make it possible to modify the various languages of the page. There is also an issue with the search: in which language should the object's content be indexed? One solution would be to make it possible to have international languages handled directly in XWiki (the same way than the default title / content fields are handled now), but I'm not sure how much work that would take. WDYT? Guillaume

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Automation Achievement Page on xwiki.org
by vincent＠massol.net 18 Feb '15

18 Feb '15

Hi devs, We’re starting a new year and new development cycle (the 7.x one). It’s time to reflect back on what we did and what we wish to achieve and also what we wish to do better. I think it wouldn’t do any harm to the xwiki project that we continue automating stuff (more build/release process automation, more development automation, more documentation automation, more test writing automation, etc). Basically anything that makes us better at delivering the XWiki software. If you agree with this, I’d like to propose that we start filling a wiki page on xwiki.org dedicated to what we achieved. I’ve started such as page at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/AutomationAchievements (the idea will be to move it somewhere in dev.xwiki.org if this proposal is accepted). At the moment I’ve put only a single item that I remember we did on the automation topic but the idea is that each one of us (us = the xwiki community at large) updates this page when he/she implements some new automation stuff. The goal of this page is several: * show appreciation to whoever helped improve XWiki’s automation * realize that we’re doing work on automation and see how much we achieve in a year. And thus be able to compare year to year and see how we fare. * provides emulation to all of us to do even more in this domain WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
