IncludeTopic Macro

This is a Velocity macro, bundled with all the XWiki products by default.
Macro developed by the XWiki Development Team.
This macro cannot currently be downloaded separately.

IncludeTopic Macro

Renders the specified XWiki page in its own context and surrounded by {pre}{/pre} tags to avoid further rendering of XWiki syntax by the including document.

You can use Include Form Macro to include a page that is rendered within the context of the including document

Usage

#includeTopic($pageName)

Parameters definition

NameOptionalAllowed valuesDefault valueDescription
pageNamenoa stringnoneA page name using the syntax described below

The pagename parameter may take the following form:

[database:][web.]page

where optional parts are surrounded by brackets

  • If database is present, the space and page parts will refer to a document in the specified database in the context of an XWiki farm.
  • If web is present, then it will be used as part of the full page name, otherwise the web name of the enclosing document will be used

Example

This macro may be used to display an XWiki page in another one. For instance, the page Community.IRC from this web site is included below.

#includeTopic("dev:Community.IRC")

Result

Most communications happen on the mailing lists. However from time to time there's a need to have a quick back and forth exchange. For this there's both a Jabber group chat and an IRC channel.

Note that we've set up a bi-directional bridge between the IRC channel and the Jabber group chat so you can use either of them.

Jabber

The Jabber group chart is available at:

  • Server: conference.jabber.org
  • Room name: xwiki

Example of Jabber clients:

  • Adium (Mac)
  • Pidgin

IRC

The IRC channel is available on FreeNode:

  • Server: irc.freenode.org
  • Port: 6667
  • Channel: #xwiki

You can use any IRC client. Examples of IRC clients are:

Archives

The IRC chat is archived (and thus the Jabber chat too thanks to the bridge) and the archives are located here.
