[xwiki-users] REST query to fetch filtered list of users and some of their attributes
by Mark Sack 20 May '16

20 May '16

In our Xwiki, I've added some fields such as birthday (of type Date) to the user profile. I'd like to implement a REST call that retrieves all of the non-hidden users with birthdays in a specific month (typically the current month) and some specific attribute values. Right now the values I want are the first name, last name, birthday and the link to the avatar image file. I have bits and pieces of the solution but am having trouble with some parts - specifically how to put it together into a single REST call. PROBLEM 1: I can create a page with a script like the following to filter some users and display their names. {{velocity}} #set ($tags=$services.query.xwql("select obj.first_name from Document doc, doc.object(XWiki.XWikiUsers) as obj where (obj.first_name LIKE '%a%' and (doc.hidden <> true OR doc.hidden is null))").execute()) $tags {{/velocity}} But if I try to execute that query in a REST call like the following, the result is different .../rest/wikis/query?q=select+obj.first_name+from+Document+doc%2C+doc.object%28XWiki.XWikiUsers%29+as+obj+where+%28obj.first_name+LIKE+%27%25a%25%27+and+%28doc.hidden+%3C%3E+true+OR+doc.hidden+is+null%29%29&type=xwql The REST call returns some data completely unrelated to the users: <searchResults template="http://...rest?q={solrquery}(&number={number})(&start={start})(&orderField={fieldname}(&order={asc|desc}))(&distinct=1)(&prettyNames={false|true})(&wikis={wikis})(&className={classname})"><searchResult><link href="http://...rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/XWiki/pages/DocumentTreeMacros" rel="http://www.xwiki.org/rel/page"/><type>page</type><id>xwiki:XWiki.DocumentTreeMacros</id><pageFullName>XWiki.DocumentTreeMacros</pageFullName><wiki>xwiki</wiki><space>XWiki</space><pageName>DocumentTreeMacros</pageName><modified>2016-02-15T12:14:34-03:00</modified><author>xwiki:XWiki.Admin</author><version>4.1</version><score>0.62450576</score></searchResult><searchResult><link href="http://...rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/XWiki/pages/DocumentTree" rel="http://www.xwiki.org/rel/page"/><type>page</type><id>xwiki:XWiki.DocumentTree</id><pageFullName>XWiki.DocumentTree</pageFullName><wiki>xwiki</wiki><space>XWiki</space><pageName>DocumentTree</pageName><modified>2016-01-27T10:23:05-03:00</modified><author>xwiki:XWiki.Admin</author><version>2.1</version><score>0.5804536</score></searchResult><searchResult><link href="http://...rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/Panels/pages/DocumentInformation" rel="http://www.xwiki.org/rel/page"/><type>page</type><id>xwiki:Panels.DocumentInformation</id><pageFullName>Panels.DocumentInformation</pageFullName><wiki>xwiki</wiki><space>Panels</space><pageName>DocumentInformation</pageName><modified>2016-01-12T09:56:52-03:00</modified><author>xwiki:XWiki.superadmin</author><version>1.1</version><score>0.4841085</score></searchResult> PROBLEM 2: If I try to implement a query that retrieves multiple fields from the user profile like the following: {{velocity}} #set ($tags=$services.query.xwql("select obj.first_name, obj.last_name, obj.birthday from Document doc, doc.object(XWiki.XWikiUsers) as obj where (obj.first_name LIKE '%a%' and (doc.hidden <> true OR doc.hidden is null))").execute()) $tags {{/velocity}} the data displayed in the xwiki page looks like the following instead the actual attribute values: [[Ljava.lang.Object;@723f4d95, [Ljava.lang.Object;@4054e1bb, [Ljava.lang.Object;@436c8d04, [Ljava.lang.Object;@5c93ddc1, [Ljava.lang.Object;@54c86023, [Ljava.lang.Object;@33760a38, [Ljava.lang.Object;@14d5b5ff, [Ljava.lang.Object;@566a1f71, [Ljava.lang.Object;@41b4b4e7, [Ljava.lang.Object;@42904123, [Ljava.lang.Object;@7b536ec3, [Ljava.lang.Object;@7d44674f, [Ljava.lang.Object;@1933e78c, [Ljava.lang.Object;@59ea34d0, [Ljava.lang.Object;@392f7c58, [Ljava.lang.Object;@678f1a2d, [Ljava.lang.Object;@61868ed7, [Ljava.lang.Object;@69426a83, [Ljava.lang.Object;@2bcd164f, [Ljava.lang.Object;@340c3f69, [Ljava.lang.Object;@6129ef09, [Ljava.lang.Object;@1b4587dd, [Ljava.lang.Object;@58799594, [Ljava.lang.Object;@d5b1e85, [Ljava.lang.Object;@2324f980, [Ljava.lang.Object;@1468f956, [Ljava.lang.Object;@290b7a] Regards Mark Sack -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/REST-query-to-fetch-filtered-list-of-user… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] REST query returns subset of results
by Mark Sack 20 May '16

20 May '16

I'm using the REST API to get the wiki users as per the example in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI i.e. http://<server>/xwiki/rest/wikis/query?q=object:XWiki.XWikiUsers This only returns 10 of the users in the wiki database. If I make the call using curl, it returns 10 non-hidden users. If I make the call from a browser, it returns almost the same set of 10 users except that 2 of them are replaced with hidden users. I can get around this by adding the start and number parameters to the query and then repeating the call incrementing the start parameter until nothing is returned. This leads to a number of questions. 1. Is there a way to adjust the default limit of 10 results other than using the number parameter? 2. Is there a way to get the count of the total number of users using the REST API? 3. Is there an explanation for the different behaviour between curl and the browser? Which behaviour should I expect if making the call from another application (eg. Rails)? 4. Is there a more elegant way to get all of the users through the API? 5. Is this documented somewhere that I've missed or would it be useful to add a comment to the RESTful API page? 6. Niggly point regarding the REST API page. In some places, the start parameter is labeled as 'n' and in others as 'offset'. I assume this is perhaps an artefact of updates by different authors. Should it really be 'offset' everywhere or is the distinction intentional?

19 May '16

I have been looking everywhere for an article or an addon for this function. Has anyone managed to find a way to add a simple button or menu options to email the page via Outlook? My users really want to have the articles they are sending out in their own mailboxes as a sent item.

[xwiki-users] The "zh" Chinese support in XWiki-7.3 is very bad.
by KirbY ZhoU 19 May '16

19 May '16

1. The "tags" feature display a lot of jumbled text. For example: "运营" displays as "è¿è¥", if I click "è¿è¥", it becomes "Ã¨Â¿ÂÃ¨ÂÂ¥", much worse. 2. The "Solr Search" feature display a log of jumbled text. For example: "表格" displays as "Ã¨Â¡Â¨Ã¦Â Â¼" in the search result page. And of couse, it returns no hitted page, but it is actually appeared in the default "Sandbox" chinese page. For example: 3. The Chinese Sandbox, incorrectly use ">" instead of ">" in wiki source text. For example: [[沙箱测试页面1>>Sandbox.TestPage1]] Should be: [[沙箱测试页面1>>Sandbox.TestPage1]]

by KirbY ZhoU 19 May '16

19 May '16

For example, I have a page called “基础品质及小垂直团队” The URL is ‘http://mysite/xwiki/bin/view/web_product/基础品质及小垂直团队/’ In the “Rename” Action, I can see both “Title” and “Page Name” is “基础品质及小垂直团队” But, In the “Administrator Page”, its location shows: “EVA小组（评估、分析、垂直等）/ Preferences”, and title is “Administration: web_product.基础品质及小垂直团队” and URL is “…/xwiki/bin/admin/web_product/基础品质及小垂直团队/WebPreferences” “EVA小组（评估、分析、垂直等）” is the old name of this page, I donot know why it is still here.

[xwiki-users] Immediate Child Document Query
by Personal 18 May '16

18 May '16

Per the Query Module documentation: List of child spaces: select space.name from XWikiSpace as space where space.parent = 'Parent Space’ List of all nested documents in a space: where doc.space like 'Space' or doc.space like 'Space.%’ The first gives me the correct spaces but I want the documents (WebHome) and the second gives me every single document in every space below ‘Space’. How do you query for just the documents in the immediate child spaces? Anything I do to narrow the results seems to give me no results and no error. Thanks for any help. Regards, Jesse
