I'm afraid I don't understand this. I see that velocity-tools-1.4.jar
included with XE 2.4 includes DateComparisonTools, as it
does velocity-tools-2.0.jar included with XE 7.3. I've replaced both in XE
2.4 with those in XE 7.3 and restarted the container to no avail. DateTool
methods work, but ComparisonDateTool don't.

http://atriumkm.idisantiago.es/bin/ICT/PureDate

I think I don't understand what binding does mean and how could I implement
it.

Have I any option of getting these methods working in my legacy XE 2.4
installation? I do need to do some date comparisons to show several pieces
of information!

Thanks for your help!

Re: [xwiki-users] jodatime challenge

[[IDIS Technical Secretariat] Ricardo Rodríguez]

Hi Gerritjan!

Please, allow me to follow this thread to initiate my understanding about
how to deal with date within XWiki! It seems to me that, at least, I'm
missing some basic concept!

I've also added a date property to XWikiUsers class, populated it for a
bunch of users by editing objects and using the format described at
creation time and I'm not able to read it. $doc.Display(date-property)
reads something which is shown as an empty string, thus, nothing is shown,
and the the other two string area shown as is, thus they are interpreted as
text strings and are reading nothing from any object property!

I've played a bit with those JoDaTime example and do this...

http://portal.idisantiago.es/xwiki/bin/viewrev/ICT/PureTime/WebHome?rev=14.1

And I'm not happy with this as I'm still 51 years old! My birthday will be
next Sunday and my XWiki installation is set to System Default Timezone.
Please, anybody could explain me why XWiki is telling me that I'm already
52 year old? :-( Please, what am I missing?

Thank you so much!

Re: [xwiki-users] File Management Extension

[Paul Pinkerton (ACLCO)]

Wait - update.  I have copied the "FileManager" space into a new space 
(DocLibrary) to work on a document library.  In Chrome, the menu works in the 
FileManager space, but not in my new DocLibrary space.  The menu works just 
fine in other browsers and other functionality seems to be ok in the new space. 

 Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks for the advice, Marius.  I'm working through it.

I have discovered though that the right-click to access the menu doesn't seem 
to work in Chrome (55.0.2883.87 m).  It does work in Firefox (37.0.2) and in 
Internet Explorer (11.0.9600.18537).  Is this a known bug or abnormal

No, it should affect only the current space. See
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-filemanager/blob/master/ui/src/main/resources/FileManagerCode/Migrator.xml#L80
.

Adding meta data is fairly easy, by adding new properties to the FileClass 
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-filemanager/blob/master/ui/src/main/resources/FileManagerCode/FileClass.xml
. Displaying and editing this meta data directly from the File Manager UI is 
more complex, but you can do it relatively easy from the "file view"
(what you see when you click on a file from the files live table), by editing 
FileSheet
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-filemanager/blob/master/ui/src/main/resources/FileManagerCode/FileSheet.xml#L258
.

Hope this helps,
Marius

Ok I’m glad you could repair it!

I’m still curious about what happened. Did you voluntarily add some xobjects at 
some point in the XWiki.XWikiPreferences page?

Could you tell us which xobjects you removed?

Re: [xwiki-users] jodatime challenge

[Gerritjan Koekkoek]

Reading the documentation of the XWiki JoDaTime module (XWiki services based)  
I feel it holds a lot of value next to $datetool and $datecomparisontool 
(velocity based)


But I fail to understand the documentation

http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Joda+Time+Plugin


As the examples are quite easy to read they did not clarify me enough to just 
use date-values stored in XWiki XObjectProperties of type date


What default format does the property deliver; Should I use 
$doc.Display(date-property)? , $doc.Display(date-property).value() or 
$object.getProperty(date-property)


What I understand from JoDaTime is that it is great to render dates in 'view' 
mode in the internationally localized format (Dutch Notation vs English 
Notation), but when I switch to 'edit' mode how can I have a DateWidget 
understands that format


So my simple question was to calculate the age based on a date-property in a 
wiki object and Now?

Yes, XE 2.4 is really a paleoXWiki installation! But it is still solving
some problems to me here! That pending migration is still a pending
migration/upgrade... Some notes on this issue in comments here...

Got it! That’s very nice and useful! :) Thanks for pointing this out.

I’ll look into this later this afternoon or over the weekend, unless you wish

I was confused also about the difference because for me also it shouldn't
be 1.6 GB but that's what "docker images" tells me. On dockerhub, it's the
"compressed size" so maybe compression could explain this ?

For the 300 MB, you have to take into account how the docker images are
built. In the Dockerfile, each time you write a line, you create a layer.
One of the error you made was to write the Dockerfile as you would write an
installation procedure.
It's more readable, but if you make multiple modifications on the
filesystem, you store it each time. The most costly one in this case is "RUN
chown -R tomcat8:tomcat8 /var/lib/tomcat8" which just changes the owner on
230 MB worth of data, thus adding 230 MB of nearly identical data as a new
layer.

You can view the impact of each layer here
https://microbadger.com/images/xwiki/xwiki-mysql-tomcat (you can also get a
html code to get a nice image for you repository).

Yes, XE 2.4 is really a paleoXWiki installation! But it is still solving
some problems to me here! That pending migration is still a pending
migration/upgrade... Some notes on this issue in comments here...

http://atriumkm.idisantiago.es/bin/ICT/PureDate

I'll give it a try ASAP!

Cheers!

Re: [xwiki-users] Problem with update from 7.1.2 to 8.4.1

[aleksey-s]

Hi Vincent,

I repait it without XAR! 

I open my subwiki (where admin ui work correctly) page
/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=object in object editor and open this page in
my Main wiki. I compare pages and delete all object which not present in
/XWiki/XWikiPreferences in my subwiki. After this - admin ui works correctly
on my Main wiki! (I think that some old objects broke admin UI) 


Thank for help!

There’s no “source” view for xobjects but you can get all the info from the XML 
view:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/News?xpage=xml

Re: [xwiki-users] Inline blog with teaser in a page

[Canny]

Is there a way to access the appropriate XWiki.DocumentSheetBinding
configuration, as it is used xwiki.org.
I miss to corrent entry point to go deep in this topic to help myself
instead of asking any step. Do you have any suggestions?

Right, you also need to add an xobject of type  XWiki.DocumentSheetBinding to 
override the class sheet binding you get from the BlogClass itself :)

Re: [xwiki-users] Inline blog with teaser in a page

[Canny]

Hi Vincent,

adding the "Blog.BlogClass" class leads to losing the embedded mode. The
hole page is now the blog overview page. Try to edit the page opens the blog
overview edit page, no change to access the original content of the page
where i try to embed the blog inline. I noticed that the blog entries are
not teasered and the create button for a new blog post is displayed. How to
get the embedding and style as on xwiki.org?

Thanks,

Canny

Wow XE 2.4 is really old...

I don’t remember if the $datetool binding was available and it’s possible that 
it wasn’t.

FYI it’s located in a java class in the xwiki-velocity*.jar file.

Thanks
