[xwiki-devs] Release process feedback
by Vincent Massol 28 Nov '12

28 Nov '12

Hi devs, Here are some notes I took while releasing XWiki 4.3 on how to improve the release process: * We need to automate the generation of the CLIRR report. This is what takes the longest when releasing (not overall time but manual time required). IMO this can be done relatively easily by creating a patch for the CLIRR maven plugin itself to: ** Add support for wildcards in the new <difference> syntax ** Ensure that their report generation takes into account the <justification> element ** Possibly add a text report generation that we'll be able to copy paste in our RN * Remove PURL generation for Tweets ** Tweets are ephemeral so no need to have permanent URLs ** Tweet clients already do URL shortening (It's complex to use the PURL UI too) * Don't create RN summary for OW2, email and even blog post. This will win some more time. Instead just link to the RN page which contains a summary and all details. For example for the email it could be: " The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki Enterprise <version>. 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/ReleaseNotesXWiki<short version> Thanks -The XWiki dev team " * Put maven.xwiki.org:~/xwiki-release-scripts under Git and do a git reset before the ow2 step to be sure to have clean scripts WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] L10N Conventions
by Sergiu Dumitriu 28 Nov '12

28 Nov '12

Hi devs, I've written some conventions for translation messages at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/L10N+Conventions Please provide feedback, since we terribly lack some proper rules here, and there aren't two applications that use the same conventions. Now that we have support for modular translation documents, it's a good time to clean up translations and move things out of ApplicationProperties into each application. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu

[xwiki-devs] com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 2 in 0: The wiki xxx does not exist
by Patrice 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hello, Annoying problem : - One wiki on production with 1 space with an eventlistener working on it, sending email as soon as a page is created in the space. - In dev, the same wiki : we add a new space with an other eventlistener, sending email as soon as a page is created in the space (in summary because the mail, the conditions of sending it are differents, etc...) Everything is OK ! So we've decided to get it on production. On pre-production the second listener doesn't send emails. In logs we have this error : com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 2 in 0: The wiki xxx does not exist xxx is the name of our wiki and declared as an alias of the wiki. We are in version 2.6.2. I don't see what we are missing and so we cannot get it on productio. Thanks for your help.

[xwiki-devs] Fixing translations for XWiki 4.3 - Help Needed!
by Silvia Rusu 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hi! RalucaM and myself have been working on/reviewing French translations for XWiki 4.3 and we've posted a report illustrating the issues we found here http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/TestReports/TranslationsReport43 Sorin will be reviewing each entry to see whether translations or keys are missing and will probably ping you on IRC for help :) It would be very useful however if you could look at the reported issues and make some of the needed fixes, especially if you're a native French speaker. Edi has already helped us with the Workspaces App keys. Thanks a lot! Please reply to the current thread and specify the fixes you've made, or edit the document directly and write [fixed] in front of the entry you handled. We won't be able to include the translations in the 4.3 final release, but it would be wonderful if we could have a 4.3.1, or even include them in 4.4. Here is the link again: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/TestReports/TranslationsReport43 Translation wiki: http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/L10N/ Thanks, Silvia

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Deprecate Util.getResourceAsStream() + modify ServletEnvironment.getResourceAsStream()
by Vincent Massol 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hi devs, I'd like to deprecate Util.getResourceAsStream(): public static InputStream getResourceAsStream(String resource) { File file = new File(resource); try { if (file.exists()) { return new FileInputStream(file); } } catch (Exception e) { // Probably running under -security, which prevents calling File.exists() LOGGER.debug("Failed load resource [" + resource + "] using a file path"); } try { Environment environment = Utils.getComponent(Environment.class); InputStream res = environment.getResourceAsStream(resource); if (res != null) { return res; } } catch (Exception e) { LOGGER.debug("Failed to load resource [" + resource + "] using the application context"); } return Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(resource); } Instead I'd like to propose to use the new Environment.getResourceAsStream(). However I'd also like to modify the ServletEnvironment.getResourceAsStream() implementation so that it also looks in the classloader if not found in the resources directory (defaulting to the current thread context class loader for the classloader to use since this is set in a servlet container). Thanks -Vincent

23 Nov '12

Hi devs, I'd like to rename the "Release Plans" app (http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleasePlans/WebHome) into "Releases" (i.e. remove the "plan" part) and then commit in platform as an application. Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent PS: This action goes in the direction of creating a list of useful applications/extensions for a Project Development Flavor (see other mail).
