Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-users] Translations available at Global Level

Hi, The copy dialog is something we added recently in 7.2+ and displays the page structure from the subwikis. The problem is that if from subwikiA you want to copy to subwikiB and you are browsing the tree, you will see unrendered titles for the homepage of some applications. 1. So the current 'solution' was to change the visibility for TranslationDocumentClass from WIKI to GLOBAL. Apparently this requires PROGRAMMING rights. 2. Another bad solution would be not use translations keys for those homepage titles, in order to display plain text. Or just accept the fact that it is unrendered (which looks really bad). 3. other???

[xwiki-devs] [Idea] Sponsoring issues
by Vincent Massol 04 Feb '16

04 Feb '16

Hi devs, WDYT of doing like Jenkins is doing and adding a "Sponsor this issue" button on JIRA? For example: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-9030 When you click it redirects to http://www.freedomsponsors.org/core/login/?next=/core/issue/sponsor%3Ftrack… You can check http://www.freedomsponsors.org/ It could be interesting to try it and see how it goes. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Introduce a BeginIgnoreEvent/EndIgnoreEvent classes and clarify Begin/EndFoldEvent usage
by vincent＠massol.net 04 Feb '16

04 Feb '16

Hi devs, I’m not sure if we are all on the same page on the topic of ignoring and folding events so I’m making this proposal to try to clarify things. Needs: * Use case 1: Ability to ignore events. For example when cleaning spam, since we’re removing pages with spam in the title we may not want to have those pages appear in the Activity Stream, so the cleaning tool should be able to ignore events. * Use case 2: Grouping of Events. For example when we import a XAR we don’t want that each page in the XAR appear as a change in the Activity Stream since that would flood the stream. Instead we want to have a single entry that says “XAR xxx has been imported” (and ideally have the ability to click on a details link to unfold the full list of nested events. Current situation: * We currently have a Begin/EndFoldEvent which correspond to use case 2. The javadoc for Being says: "Implemented by event indicating a task which generates other events during its process is starting. This generated events could be seen as children of this task, that you can fold. This interface should only be used when there is a corresponding {@link EndFoldEvent}.”. * We don’t have any specific Event to say that we want to ignore all the events that come after it. * A lot of Event Listeners are currently excluding Begin/EndFoldEvent. ** For example the AS completely ignores any BeginFoldEvent sent to it (which is not correct, it should at least log one line). Proposal: * Keep Begin/EndFoldEvent with the current meaning, i.e. that it means that nested events are sent between the Begin/End. * Introduce 2 new classes: BeginIgnoreEvent/EndIgnoreEvent for the use case 1 (i.e. when some code needs to completely have the following events ignored). Those classes would implement BeginFoldEvent and EndFoldEvent. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Hiding "WebHome" in wiki syntax for links and images
by Eduard Moraru 03 Feb '16

03 Feb '16

Hi devs, As XWIKI-12920 [1] mentions, we need to hide "WebHome" references in the wiki syntax for links and images (for now) in order to be consistent with what we did in the UI. What this means is that [[label>>Page.WebHome]] should be equivalent to [[label>>Page]]. The plan is to apply the same logic as we did for URLs and detailed by Vincent in "Solution 2" in his comment on the issue [2]. In order to achieve this, Vincent proposed to introduce a new "space:" resource type and make this new type the default instead of "doc:" which is the current default. Before: [[label>>Page]] => [[label>>doc:Page]] After: [[label>>Page]] => [[label>>space:Page]] if "Page.WebHome" exists, or => [[label>>doc:Page]] if "<currentSpace>.Page" exists, or => wanted link to create "Page.WebHome" when clicked. Using either the "doc:" or the "space:" versions manually will resolve the requested resource, without doing any fallback resolution (which is applied only for the no-prefix version). For the same consistency reason, we need to apply the same fallback to the "attach:" resource type, e.g: [[attach:Page@file.ext]] => [[label>>attach:space:Page@file.ext]] || [[label>>attach:doc:Page@file.ext]] However, a resource is defined as ((type:) resource) so for attachments we would need to extend the type's definition to allow it to contain ":" in the type name (i.e. "attach:doc" and "attach:space") so that more variations are tested when resolving a link reference before treating it as a generic/untyped reference (this is where the fallback mechanism kicks in). There is also the image syntax that needs to be extended to support the same fallback logic, so something like: image:Page => image:space:Page || image:doc:Page In all these cases: * link space: prefix, * link attach:doc and attach:space prefixes and * image space: and doc: prefix ... we would be breaking backwards compatibility in the sense that if a wiki with the name "space" (and/or "doc", depending on which case of the above you are) already existed in the wiki farm, any links pointing to documents in that wiki from other wikis will be broken, because, for example [[label>>space:Page]] no longer points to the document "space:Page.WebHome" (from wiki "space"), but to the document "Page.WebHome" from the current wiki (where the link is made). To fix this, one would have to write [[label>>space:space:Page]] instead. I guess we could/should write a migrator to try to fix most of these cases automatically (like we fix links to a document that was renamed), but a couple of links will be unfixable if they are built programatically (e.g. by velocity scripts) and the process could prove to be extremely lengthy one (due to the parsing, processing, serialization and resaving of each document). Please feel free to comment on the above described approach. Thanks, Eduard P.S.: I did not mention macro parameter references which would also need a solution for hiding the "WebHome" part, but I`d prefer it if we handle that another time / in another thread. ---------- [1] http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12920 [2] http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12920?focusedCommentId=89129&page=com.at…

[xwiki-devs] PDFMulti Export
by Alessandro Strambini 01 Feb '16

01 Feb '16

Hello, I wanted to ask if there is any Tool or Script at the moment to export Multiple Pages as PDF (like The PDFCollection Maker extension http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/PDF+Export+Collection+…) or the MultiPage Export, which works for me but not when i have alot of Pages to export. Im at version 7.2 and it seems like the Collection one isnt working anymore. Is there any alternative? Or did i skipped some important configuration change that it should work? I would be glad for any help. Best Regards Alessandro Strambini
