How to create a macro ?
Hi How can I create my own macro in my xwiki (say, a macro for adding two numbers). Where should I write it. So that I can use it from any page ? Regards Roopesh
From what I understand, there's two ways to do it. One, add it to macros.vm in your skin directory. Two, put it in a .vm file you include in the document you need to use it in (using #template("filename.vm")). Anyone know if there any better ways?

You can also create your macro in a page and then load that page using the #includeMacros macro wherever you need it. See http:// www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Code/IncludeMacrosMacro -Vincent On Apr 25, 2007, at 5:02 PM, Thomas Kliethermes wrote:

Hi everyone, I've discovered a new possibility today that we need to document. In the Administration page, in the Advanced tab there's a "Velocity Macro Pages" field. You can put in there the name of a page containing Velocity macros and that will make those macros available from all pages. I haven't tried it yet though. Hope it helps, -Vincent On Apr 25, 2007, at 5:16 PM, Vincent Massol wrote:

To expand on Thomas's second option, you can actually put either the macro definition or a directive including the document containing it into the view template of your skin (to make it global as you desired). This can be done either by modifying /templates/view.vm or the "view" field of your skin (which, if non-empty, will override view.vm). And to clarify his reply slightly, the original macros.vm is actually in the /templates directory. If you wish your macro to be global, regardless of the skin, I think you will want to edit that one instead of the one in your skin directory. This is apparently a change from the pre-1.0 days, when the skins directories didn't contain template files - I presume that they are now copied there from /templates when a skin is created. Vincent (or anybody), can you confirm this? Are these files actually copied whenever a skin is created, or only when a custom version of the file's content is desired?

Hello, I applied exactly the solution proposed by Brian in my Wiki (see his answer below) : create macros in a specific wiki document, import it with an #includeMacros macro located inside the "View" field of my skin, like this: ### ### Main "view" template ### ### General wrapper for view actions ### [.......] </div>## main #template("endpage.vm") #includeMacros('XWiki.MyMacros') #end My problem is that the macro includeMacros adds {pre} / {/pre} tags that get rendered, and so appear in all pages. I cannot put them inside the "content" of the page, because I would have to overload the "contentview.vm" file, in which is declared the "xwikicontent" div. How can I get rid of those {pre} {/pre} tags ? I would like to avoid overloading the "contentview.vm" because I think it's not a good thing to do (it's not in the default templates, but in the skins) ...

Hi all, I have again problems with macros, contained in a page (XWiki.MyMacros). This page is referenced in XWiki.XWikiPreferences, in field "Velocity Macro Pages", value being "XWiki.MyMacros". It used to work well with 0.9.840 and 1.0, all macros were correctly interpreted in all pages. But now from 1.1M3 and 1.1M4 it does not work anymore ... Do you have any idea why it wouldn't work anymore ? Also, during wiki migrations, I did not reimport last XWiki.XWikiPreferences pages, to keep my preferences. Could it explain the problem ? Do you advise reimporting the last versions (1.1M4) of XWiki.XWikiPreferences page ? Also, how is it possible for such pages (XWiki core) to compare them to the old ones, and to see if there are differences ?

The Velocity docs will be better to explain this, as I really don't understand it well. However, as I understand it, Velocity loads globally-scoped macros from a single file, which in XWiki is macros.vm, located in the /templates directory. And, in case you don't already know it, the instructions - such as they are - are available at velocity.apache.org (to my mind, the site is organized a little oddly: from the main page's left-side menu you have to pick "Engine" from the "Development" submenu, which gets you to a page whose left menu has a "Docs" section, under which "User Guide" and "VTL Reference" are the most useful, particularly the latter). brain[sic]

I guess the term 'macro' is used in two different contexts, the velocity macro, explained here http://velocity.apache.org/engine/releases/velocity-1.4/user-guide.html#Velo... or the XWiki macro with examples here http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Code/Macros They are not the same as I understand and it might be helpful to use a different term for the Xwiki macros, something like 'utility'?

Yes, you're right: one is called "Radeox Macro" and the other is called "Velocity Macro". -Vincent
