Re: Re: orbeon xerces

Nico,

This seems to point out to a problem with the synchronization of the CVS
repository for the saxon module. All the changes shown by viewcvs are
very old, and clearly we have upgraded the source code to Saxon since
then. This is puzzling.

Re: Saving XML file on server

GEORGE.ADAMS
In reply to this post by Erik Bruchez

I am trying to save the agent-instance back to the file where it was originally read in.

The original document is in apps/sifzones/viewzones.xhtml
In the document <head> I have this

<xforms:model >
  <xforms:submission ref="instance('agent-instance')" id="save-submission"
    method="post" action="oxf:../sifshared/save.xpl" replace="instance" instance="agent-instance">
    <xforms:message ev:event="xforms-submit-error" level="modal">An error occurred while saving!</xforms:message>
   </xforms:submission>
</xforms:model>

in the body
<xforms:submit submission="save-submission" appearance="minimal">
  <xforms:label><xhtml:img src="../apps/sifshared/images/save.gif" alt="Save"/> Save</xforms:label>
</xforms:submit>



In the apps/sifshared/save.xpl file is


<p:config xmlns:p="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/pipeline"
    xmlns:oxf="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/processors"
    xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

    <p:param name="instance" type="input"/>
    <p:param name="data" type="output"/>
<!-- Convert a document to serialized XML -->
<p:processor name="oxf:xml-converter">
<p:input name="config">
  <config>
    <encoding>utf-8</encoding>
  </config>
</p:input>
  <p:input name="data" href="/config/config.xml"/>
<p:output name="data" id="converted"/>
</p:processor>
<!-- Write the document to a file -->
<p:processor name="oxf:file-serializer">
  <p:input name="config">
    <config>
      <directory>/sifshared/</directory>
      <file>config.xml</file>
      <make-directories>true</make-directories>
      <append>false</append>
    </config>
  </p:input>
<p:input name="data" href="#converted"/>
</p:processor>
</p:config>

I'm not even sure the save.xpl file is being located and if so what the error with it is.
Any help in turning on debugging or fixing up the code would be appreciated.

Re: [ops-users] Saving XML file on server





Yes, that will work. You can call the oxf:file-serializer from XPL, and
then you need to hook-up XPL to XForms, either by using the
xxforms:call-xpl() XPath extension function or by using an XForms
submission.

In theory, file: and oxf: URLs should be supported by XForms submission
in Orbeon Forms, but at the moment we don't support that. If somebody
feels like fixing this, you are welcome! This would involve changes to
XFormsModelSubmission.java.

Re: Saving XML file on server

Daniel E. Renfer
First off, it looks like the problem is from where you are triggering your submission. Try putting this in your body instead:
 
<xforms:trigger>
    <xforms:label>
       <xhtml:img src="="../apps/sifshared/images/save.gif" alt="Save"/>
    </xforms:label>
    <xforms:action ev:event="DOMActivate">
        <xforms:send submission="save-submission"/>
    </xforms:action>
</xforms:trigger>

Note: If you are doing only one action off the DOMActivate, then the xforms:action element isn't technically needed. Just move the ev:event down to the send element.

Second, I'm not sure if Orbeon Forms allows oxf:// url's in the action attribute or not. (I'm sure it does, but I never do it that way)
 
The standard way to do it is to have your action point to a URL relative to the base of your application. Then, in your PFC, wire a handler for that URL to call your pipeline.

It does half: it works only for reading, not writing.

George's way, using xforms:submit, will work too, and it's shorter ;-)

George,

You can't call an XPL file through xforms:submission/@action.

At best, this would overwrite the file save.xpl, but this won't work as
we don't support writing to files from xforms:submission.

If you want to call an XPL from XForms, you can either:

* Declare a service in your page flow, and call the URL of that service
from XForms.

* Use the extension XPath function xxforms:call-xpl() from an XForms action.

Re: Saving XML file on server

All these answers are just getting me more confused. I'll take another look at the example forms and documentation and see it all makes more sense.

At best, this would overwrite the file save.xpl, but this won't work as
we don't support writing to files from xforms:submission.

If you want to call an XPL from XForms, you can either:

* Declare a service in your page flow, and call the URL of that service
from XForms.

* Use the extension XPath function xxforms:call-xpl() from an XForms action.

XML Editor recommendation

GEORGE.ADAMS
In reply to this post by GEORGE.ADAMS

I downloaded the OPS Eclipse plug-in but it seems to be for version 2.
I tried the 30 day trial of Oxygen but it doesn't handle xpl
My preference would be an open source editor or plug-in that will work on a Macintosh or Linux
Any suggestions?

Re: XML Editor recommendation

Adrian Baker
I use jedit with the XML plugin. Pretty good, well formed-ness checking, schema validation, tag matching + autocompletion, folding etc.

Alternatively the xml editor in Eclipse's Web Tools Platform (WTP) is ok, certainly it's got a lot better. But a pain to use as a general purpose editor if you're not already using Eclipse for your work (have to set up workspace etc).

We have a schema for XPL (as well as XForms, XSLT, and others). So any
schema aware XML editor should do. I am using IntelliJ because I also
do work in JavaScript and Java, and IntelliJ supports well those
languages. If you are already using Eclipse, you might want to just
use the XML editor that comes with most distributions of Eclipse (part
of WTP). And you can find the schema for XPL in (look for
pipeline.xsd):

Re: Saving XML file on server

Erik Bruchez
Administrator
In reply to this post by GEORGE.ADAMS
George,

Ok, so the original issue was that you needed to write a file to disk,
right?

In theory, you could be able to do this directly from XForms, using
something like:

    xforms:submission/@action="oxf:/..."

or

    xforms:submission/@action="file:/..."

I think this is what you tried to do initially. The only reason this
doesn't work is that we do not implement write support for oxf: and
file: in XForms submissions at the moment. This would be a desirable
feature (probably off by default for security reasons).

So since this is not implemented, you have to go through some hoops to
get here. Instead, what you can do is:

1. Implement the writing to a file in an XPL file, using the
oxf:file-serializer or oxf:url-serializer processor.

2. Declare that XPL file as a service in your page flow.

3. Submit your XML document from XForms to that service.

Re: Saving XML file on server

GEORGE.ADAMS
In reply to this post by Erik Bruchez

I am still struggling with getting a file saved back on the server. I have tried the code below and multiple variations of it. I am no longer getting an error stating the save failed but no file is written. The resulting URL is ending up at a page named xforms-server-submit and it displays what looks like the original viewzones.xhtml page but the images are broken so the context is wrong.
Any help would be appreciated. I have read the recent posts about debugging but can't find any ops.log files.

The starting page is viewzones.xhtml and contains the following code;
In the xforms:model
 <xforms:submission id="save-submission2" method="post" action="."/>
or
<xforms:submission id="save-submission2" method="post" action="save.xpl"/>

In the body
<xforms:group>

                    <xforms:action ev:event="DOMActivate">
                      <xforms:setvalue ref="instance">instance('agent-instance')</xforms:setvalue>
                      <xforms:send submission="save-submission2"/>
                   </xforms:action>
                </xforms:group>

Re: [ops-users] Saving XML file on server





Yes, that will work. You can call the oxf:file-serializer from XPL, and
then you need to hook-up XPL to XForms, either by using the
xxforms:call-xpl() XPath extension function or by using an XForms
submission.

In theory, file: and oxf: URLs should be supported by XForms submission
in Orbeon Forms, but at the moment we don't support that. If somebody
feels like fixing this, you are welcome! This would involve changes to
XFormsModelSubmission.java.

Re: [ops-users] Saving XML file on server





Yes, that will work. You can call the oxf:file-serializer from XPL, and
then you need to hook-up XPL to XForms, either by using the
xxforms:call-xpl() XPath extension function or by using an XForms
submission.

In theory, file: and oxf: URLs should be supported by XForms submission
in Orbeon Forms, but at the moment we don't support that. If somebody
feels like fixing this, you are welcome! This would involve changes to
XFormsModelSubmission.java.

George,

Can you package the code of your application under the RESOURCES/apps  
directory as a zip archive? This would make it easier to run it and  
figure out what's wrong.

Here is the apps folder zipped up.
The sifzones app is probably closer to right than the other apps/pages

Re: Saving XML file on server

Erik Bruchez
Administrator
George,

I had a look at your app and I managed to make it work. I attached the  
updated sifzones directory with my changes. FYI this is what I had to  
change:

* The submission must refer to a URL (@action attribute) defined in  
the page flow. In this case, I defined in the page flow:

   <page path-info="/sifzones/save" model="savexx.xpl"/>

   which means that my submission looks like this:

   <xforms:submission id="save-submission2" ref="instance('agent-
instance')"
                      method="post" action="save" replace="none"/>

   Note that the action is just "save" because the URL is relative to  
the calling path, which is /sifzones/. So the resulting URL is "/
sifzones/save". The use of a relative URL makes it possible to move  
files around easily.

* In the submission, I also used replace="none", as the default  
consists in replacing the entire page.

* savexx.xpl uses the oxf:url-serializer processor, which is able to  
write to your resources, as opposed to the oxf:file-serializer, which  
requires an absolute path to the directory or file to use.

* savexx.xpl had to be fixed-up a bit more. The "instance" input has  
to be connected to the oxf:url-serializer processor, for example.

* Note that savexx.xpl is defined as a page model in the page flow,  
because it does not produce any output, and defining it as a page view  
would require such an output.

-Erik

Re: Saving XML file on server

GEORGE.ADAMS

Erik,
This is now writing a file named configTest2.xml as expected but the file is blank. Is it not passing the agent-instance or not writing it for some reason.

Re: [ops-users] Saving XML file on server





George,

I had a look at your app and I managed to make it work. I attached the  
updated sifzones directory with my changes. FYI this is what I had to  
change:

* The submission must refer to a URL (@action attribute) defined in  
the page flow. In this case, I defined in the page flow:

  <page path-info="/sifzones/save" model="savexx.xpl"/>

  which means that my submission looks like this:

  <xforms:submission id="save-submission2" ref="instance('agent-
instance')"
                     method="post" action="save" replace="none"/>

  Note that the action is just "save" because the URL is relative to  
the calling path, which is /sifzones/. So the resulting URL is "/
sifzones/save". The use of a relative URL makes it possible to move  
files around easily.

* In the submission, I also used replace="none", as the default  
consists in replacing the entire page.

* savexx.xpl uses the oxf:url-serializer processor, which is able to  
write to your resources, as opposed to the oxf:file-serializer, which  
requires an absolute path to the directory or file to use.

* savexx.xpl had to be fixed-up a bit more. The "instance" input has  
to be connected to the oxf:url-serializer processor, for example.

* Note that savexx.xpl is defined as a page model in the page flow,  
because it does not produce any output, and defining it as a page view  
would require such an output.

George,

My bad. In savexx.xpl, replace:

   <p:input name="instance" href="#instance"/>

with:

   <p:input name="data" href="#instance"/>
