Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki scripting for end user (not Groovy)
Hi, First: I am rather new to XWiki. I am checking XWiki's scripting capabilities. The possibility of using Groovy and Velocity directly within pages is a nice feature. But I was wondering if there was an easier way to integrate dynamic contents into wiki pages. Groovy is easier than Java but you still need advanced programming skills to use it. In my opinion staying at the Groovy level is not user-friendly when you think that wikis are aimed for a broad audience. Most advanced wikis (TWiki or Deki Wiki for example) give simple scripting syntaxes thought for users with no programming skills. Is there anything like that foreseen for XWiki? The same applies to the form ant template system. It seems impossible for a normal user to use them. I was surprised to find the how-tos for these features in the developer guide, not the user guide. Thanks, William Hi William. I'm new to XWiki as well :) I'm no dev, but I would argue that even if velocity or groovy are a little awkward, it's better to learn a standardized scripting language than have to pick up a new proprietary scripting syntax for every wiki project (or any other application that stands to benefit from scripting) I use. Such proprietary scripting languages are generally severely restricted. It's not terribly difficult to do simple things under groovy or velocity, and it's often impossible to do complicated things under proprietary syntaxes. So I'm personally satisfied with the current system. As far as what goes into which guide, the lines are a bit blurry. The website uses dev in the sense of developing a customized 2nd generation wiki application/system. This means creating your own forms and classes which you provide to users so they may add/edit content. Once a user starts editing/creating classes/templates/forms/macros/code snippets they graduate to the classification of dev for a particular XWiki project instance. The website designates this dev classification as separate from the community space, which is provided for development of the XWiki project at the sourcecode level.

Hi all,
If I wrote this in a wiki page:

When the page is displayed, there aren't two code section, but only one,
and the some text is included in the code section.
I'm using it in the wrong way?

Re: [xwiki-users] LDAP and Users/Groups
Aha! Figured it out after reading your email. It's a case sensitivity thing. I logged into XWiki as pgardell. LDAP returned Pgardell. XWiki created the entry in XWikiAllGroup as XWiki.Pgardell. I guess it was comparing Pgardell with pgardell and some of the code worked, while some did not. When I log in as Pgardell, everything works perfectly.Does this ring a bell with any of the developers? I verified this with another user, and it worked perfectly the first time. They logged in with the first letter capitalized, it created the account and added it once to the XWikiAllGroup. Short term fix on my part would be to put in JavaScript to capitalize the first letter. Long term fix will be to look at the source code and figure this out. That may be a while, unfortunately.

Hi all. So I installed the Xar on my xwiki with no errors. It's tied to an sql dB... For some reason it still doesn't have the Register option at the top right of the screen.

The upside of storing attachments in a filesystem is easier access from other clients (as the other poster suggested), less likelihood of corruption on large databases (our Exchange DB is 200+ GB right now), less likelihood of backup problems, copy-only-what's-changed backups, and quicker backup and restore time. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Xwiki-file-and-attachment-storage-tf4214945.html#a13799175 Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

I don't think we have that combination unfortunately. There might be
some tricks to do that but I can't think of one right now.
Right now the only syntax to not execute velocity scripts is the code
macro and it was a very hard thing to implement (with some hacks). But
the code macro doesn't let the HTML code through.
So I think the solution (before the v2 architecture) would be to:
1) Add an escape macro.
2) Add some parameters:
{escape:escapeVelocity=true/false | escapeGroovy=true/false |
escapeHTML=true/false | escapeRadeox=true/false}
3) Make the code macro synonymous to
{escape:escapeVelocity=true | escapeGroovy=true | escapeHTML=true|
escapeRadeox=true}
It's not obvious to implement but doable. However who has the
knowledge and time to implement it? :)

Is there a way to get the back-links for properties of a custom class instances? The current backlinks infrastructure seems to work only over links of ordinary Documents. In particular, on line 1507 of com.xpn.xwiki.storeXWikiHibernateStore, in the saveLinks function of a recent SVN checkout it says: XWikiRenderer renderer = renderContext.getWiki().getRenderingEngine().getRenderer(wiki); renderer.render(doc.getContent(), doc, doc, renderContext); links = (List) renderContext.get(links); How can this be parameterized, so that links contained in property values of custom Class Instances are being included into the links variable? Example: Class Car: Instance Space1.car1 Property carsThatAreFaster: values: Space1.car2 where Space1.car2 is a link to another Car instance. The above saveLinks function does not update the BackLinks table with the Space1.car2 link. Any ideas are appreciated.
