Standard URL Format (XWiki.org)

The general format of XWiki URLs is {{code language="none"}}<protocol>://<server>/<context path>/<type>/<path>{{/code}}, where:

6

7

* ##<protocol>##: by default it's ##http##. It's possible to use ##https##. It's generally deduced from the URL used by the client but it's possible to control it using [[the wiki descriptor>>https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Wiki+Application#HConfigureWiki]]

8

* ##<server>##: the XWiki instance address and port, e.g. ##localhost:8080##, ##xwiki.org##. In domain-mode the server also contains the subwiki name. See [[Accessing a wiki>>platform:AdminGuide.AccessWiki]]. In path-based mode, the server is the address of the main wiki. Since 10.7 it's possible to customize the port to use in the [[the wiki descriptor>>https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Wiki+Application#HConfigureWiki]].

9

* ##<context path>##: the name under which the XWiki web application is deployed in your Servlet Container, e.g. ##xwiki##. See [[Short URLs>>platform:Main.ShortURLs#HI.Applicationname]] if you wish to deploy XWiki as ROOT.

10

* ##<type>##: the type of URL depending on the XWiki subsystem accessed. The following types are supported:

11

** ##bin##: points to a dynamic resource. Examples: an Entity to display (wiki, page, space, attachment, object, property, etc), a dynamic skin resource (image, css, js), a dynamic template resource (image, js, css, icon, etc) and more. By dynamic we mean that some computation needs to happen to compute the resource (for example some Velocity needs to be evaluated).

12

** ##wiki##: this is similar to ##bin## but specifying the subwiki to access, in path-based mode (See [[Accessing a wiki>>platform:AdminGuide.AccessWiki]]).

13

** ##rest##: points to a [[REST Resource>>platform:Features.XWikiRESTfulAPI]]

14

** ##skins##: points to a static filesystem skin resource (image, js, css, etc), i.e. a resource located inside a skin directory on the filesystem.

15

** ##resources##: points to a static template resource (image, js, css, etc) on the filesystem.

16

** ##xmlrpc##: points to the now deprecated XMLRPC API (see [[extensions:Extension.XML-RPC Integration]] for more details).

17

** ##webdav##: points to a WebDAV resource (see [[Web DAV>>platform:Features.WebDAV]] for more details).

18

* ##<path>##: the path completely depends on the ##<type>## used. See below for more details.

19

20

21

XWiki 7.2: Added support for Nested Spaces

28

29

30

There are various ##bin## URLs. The generic format of ##bin## URLs is ##bin/<action>/<path>##.

31

There is two ways to inject actions:

32

33

* by implementing an [[Entity Resource Reference Handler>>extensions:Extension.Resource API||anchor="HAddinganewEntityResourceTypeHandler"]]

34

* {{warning}}deprecated{{/warning}} implementing a ##com.xpn.xwiki.internal.web.LegacyAction## since 13.0 or before 13.0 by listing a Struts action in the Strut Configuration file (located in ##WEB-INF/struts-config.xml##).

35

36

Here are some well-known actions:

37

38

* [[##skin##>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format#HAction:skin]]: Dynamic Skin resource, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/skin/resources/uicomponents/search/searchSuggest.css##

39

* ##jsx##: [[Javascript Skin Extension>>platform:DevGuide.SkinExtensionsTutorial]] URL, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/jsx/AnnotationCode/Settings?language=en##

40

* ##ssx##: [[StyleSheet Skin Extension>>platform:DevGuide.SkinExtensionsTutorial]] URL, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/ssx/AnnotationCode/Style?language=en##

41

* [[##download##>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format#HAction:download]]: URL to access an attachment from a wiki page, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/download/XWiki/JohnDoe/john.png?width=30&height=30&keepAspectRatio=true##

42

* [[##view##>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format#HAction:view]]: Display Entity content (wiki, page, space, attachment, object, property, etc) with the skin applied, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Sandbox/WebHome##

43

* ##edit##: Edits wiki content (page, object, property, etc), e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/edit/Sandbox/WebHome##

44

* [[##get##>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format#HAction:get]]: Accessing Entity content (wiki, page, space, attachment, object, property, etc) without any skin applied, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/get/Main/WebHome?xpage=xpart&vm=commentsinline.vm##. The ##get## action should be used to render the content of the page and nothing else (mainly used for code pages). This action is similar to the ##view## action, but without the UI and with "text/plain" mime type set by default for the response.

45

* ##export##: Exports wiki pages to various formats (PDF, HTML, etc). See [[platform:Features.Exports]].

46

* [[##create##>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format#HAction:create]]: Provides the UI for creating new documents, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/create/Space/NewDocument##

47

* [[##objectadd##>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format#HAction:objectadd]]: Adds an XObject, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/objectadd/Space/Page?classname=Some.XClass##

48

49

== Action: ##view## ==

50

51

The additional URL paths for the ##view## action is ##<space1>/.../<spaceN>/<page>?<query string>## or ##<space1>/.../<spaceN>?<query string>##

Examples:

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Sandbox/WebHome##: Views the ##Sandbox.WebHome## page.

56

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Sandbox##: Views the ##Sandbox.WebHome## page.

57

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Space1/Space2##: Views the ##Space1.Space2.WebHome## page (if the ##Space2## page doesn't exist. If it exists then it views the ##Space1.Space2## page).

58

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Space1/Space2/##: Force to always views the ##Space1.Space2.WebHome## page (even if the ##Space2## page exists in the ##Space1## space. Note the ##/## at the end).

59

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Space1/Space2?spaceRedirect=false##: Force to always view the ##Space1.Space2## terminal page (even if the ##Space1.Space2.WebHome## page exists and even if the ##Space1.Space2## page may not exist).

60

61

Here are some of the supported query string parameters.

62

63

=== Parameter: ##xpage## ===

64

65

* ##plain##: this value indicates that only the content of the page is printed (no UI). With a document that's not using the XWiki Syntax 1.0 you can control the output syntax using ##outputSyntax## and ##outputSyntaxVersion##. You can also pass other parameters to allow fine-grained control:

66

** ##raw=1##: Returns the page source as is without any formatting but XML-escaped

67

** ##raw=2##: Returns the page source as is without any formatting (without any escaping)

68

** ##htmlHeaderAndFooter=true##: {{info}}Since 6.3RC1{{/info}} Display the HTML headers (##<html>##,##<head>##,##<body>##, etc...) and footers (##</body>##, ##</html>##, etc...).

69

** ##outputTitle##: {{info}}Since 7.3M2{{/info}} If ##true## then also display the title in addition to the content. Defaults to ##false## if not specified.

70

* ##xml##: print the exported form of a document. This is what you can find in the xar for each document.

71

* ##rev##: when specified, redirects to the ##viewrev## action (see below)

72

** ##hierarchy=parentchild##: do the same but display the children according to the (old) parent/child mechanism

74

** ##displayHidden=true##: display the hidden documents (no matter what the user's configuration is)

75

* ##backlinks##: {{info}}Since 7.2M3{{/info}} display a page that lists all the documents having a link to the current document. You can also add the following parameters:

76

** ##displayHidden=true##: display the hidden documents (no matter what the user's configuration is)

77

* ##siblings##: {{info}}Since 7.2RC1{{/info}} display a page that lists all the children of the parent of the document. You can also add the following parameter:

78

** ##displayHidden=true##: display the hidden documents (no matter what the user's configuration is)

79

* ##hierarchy_reference##: {{info}}Since 7.3M2{{/info}} display the hierarchy of the page, as raw HTML, without any style. You can also add the following parameters:

80

83

** ##limit=##: maximum number of hierarchy elements displayed (default: none)

84

** ##local=true|false##: do not display the main wiki reference for documents located in sub-wikis. (default: false)

85

86

=== Parameter: ##outputSyntax## and ##outputSyntaxVersion## ===

87

88

With a document that's not using the XWiki 1.0 syntax it's possible to explicitly indicate the renderer to use for the page content. For example with ##outputSyntax=plain## you will get the result in plain text. ##outputSyntaxVersion## is an optional parameter, if it's not provided XWiki will search for the last version of the renderer for the given ##outputSyntax## syntax name. Note that ##outputSyntax## controls only the document content output syntax. If you only want the document content you can use ##xpage=plain##.

89

90

See [[extensions:Extension.Rendering Module]] for more details on renderers.

91

92

=== Parameter: ##viewer## ===

93

94

Note: if the document does not exist, you will have a 404 error page, and the following parameters will not be taken into account. Use ##xpage## if you need to have the desired behavior even if the document does not exist.

* ##false##: An URL not ending in ##/## will always resolve to a terminal page.

114

115

Not applicable (i.e. no effect) for top-level pages and URLs ending in ##/##.

Examples:

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Space1/Space2[?spaceRedirect=true]##: Views the ##Space1.Space2.WebHome## page (if the ##Space2## page doesn't exist. If it exists then it views the ##Space1.Space2## page).

120

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Space1/Space2?spaceRedirect=false##: Force to always view the ##Space1.Space2## terminal page (even if the ##Space1.Space2.WebHome## page exists and even if the ##Space1.Space2## page may not exist).

121

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Space1[?spaceRedirect=false|?spaceRedirect=true|/]##: Will always view the ##Space1.WebHome## non-terminal page because it is a top level page and we can never have a top-level terminal page.

122

Since 11.5RC1

Accepted values:

* ##false## (default): the macro transformations are normally executed

132

* ##true##: macro transformations are executed in degraded mode or not executed at all, depending on the macro implementation.

133

134

In particular, various scripting macro such as [[Velocity Macro>>extensions:Extension.Velocity Macro]] or [[Groovy Macro>>extensions:Extension.Groovy Macro]] are not executed in restricted mode.

135

This parameter might be then use to check if a page is well displayed for user who cannot execute those scripts for example.

136

137

=== Parameter: ##rev## ===

Since 13.0.

The version to get, e.g. ##2.3## in ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/viewrev/MySpace/MyPage?rev=2.3##

Here are some of the supported query string parameters.

172

173

=== Parameter: ##creator## ===

174

175

Change the creator of the current page. Should be a string as a Document Reference like ##JohnDoe##, ##XWiki.JohnDoe## or ##xwiki:XWiki.JohnDoe## which is a page containing an ##XWiki.Users## object.

177

=== Parameter: ##language## ===

178

179

Will target a specific language. You must use a specific 2-letters code (see [[I18N>>platform:Features.I18N]]).

180

181

=== Parameter: ##objectPolicy## ===

182

183

{{info}}Since 7.1M1{{/info}} The ##objectPolicy## parameter is a request configuration parameter that will decide how to handle custom query string parameters (see [[Custom Parameters>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format#HCustomParameters]]):

184

185

* ##update##

186

** Each custom parameter will update a property in an existing object of the current page.

187

** If the custom parameter refers to a property or an object that don't exist, it will simply ignore it.

188

* ##updateOrCreate##

189

** Each custom parameter will update a property in an existing object of the current page.

190

** If the custom parameter refers to a property that doesn't exist, it will ignore it.

191

** If the custom parameter refers to an object that doesn't exist, it will create it (and pad will ##null## objects if needed).(((

192

//Example//: If there is already 2 objects ##XWiki.XWikiRights## in the page, ##XWiki.XWikiRights_0_levels## and ##XWiki.XWikiRights_1_levels## will update these existing objects. ##XWiki.XWikiRights_2_levels## and ##XWiki.XWikiRights_3_levels## will create 2 new objects. ##XWiki.XWikiRights_42_levels## will be created and 37 empty objects too (42 minus the 4 already existing and minus the 42th which will be created).

193

//Note//: All this information about empty/null objects is currently an implementation detail of how we currently handle object numbers and it may be subject to future change so, as much as possible, do not rely on it and, instead, use the public available APIs to handle these things.

194

)))

195

196

=== Parameter: ##addedObjects## ===

197

198

{{info}}Since XWiki 12.4RC1{{/info}} The ##addedObjects## parameter allows to create new xobjects in a document without having to specify the value of its properties contrary to ##updateOrCreate## ##objectPolicy##. It can be useful in particular to create xobjects that don't have any property values (special xclass AppWithinMinutes.Content for example). The value of this parameter is an array of xobjects name on the form ##xclass_xobjectNumber##: for example, ##XWiki.XWikiRights_2##.

199

200

=== Parameter: ##deletedObjects## ===

201

202

{{info}}Since XWiki 12.4RC1{{/info}} The ##deletedObjects## parameter allows to delete xobjects in a document while saving. The value of this parameter is an array of xobjects name on the form ##xclass_xobjectNumber##: for example, ##XWiki.XWikiRights_2##.

284

http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/create/Space1/Space2/WebHome: UI for creating the Space1.Space2.WebHome document (which is also known as a space homepage or a non-terminal document).

285

http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/create/Main/WebHome: Generic UI for creating a new document (asking for location and document name since Main.WebHome already exists)

286

287

Here are some of the supported query string parameters.

288

289

=== Parameter: ##spaceReference## ===

290

291

{{info}}Since 7.2M1{{/info}} A local reference string serialization of the space in which to create the new document, e.g. "Space1.Space2"

292

293

//Note//: Since it's a serialized string reference, entity names need to be already escaped. For a space name "A.B", the equivalent local space reference would be "A\.B". Another example of serialized local space reference would be "A\.B.C\.D", meaning space "C.D" inside space "A.B". See the [[extensions:Extension.Model Module]]'s documentation for more information on EntityReferences.

294

295

=== Parameter: ##name## ===

296

297

{{info}}Since 7.2M1{{/info}} A string representing the name of the new entity, e.g. "NewDocument".

298

299

Depending on the type of document to create, this will be used as:

300

301

* a space name, when creating non-terminal documents, e.g. spaceReference=Space&name=Page results in creating "Space.Page.WebHome"

302

* a document name, when creating terminal documents, e.g. spaceReference=Space&name=Page&tocreate=terminal results in creating "Space.Page"

303

304

=== Parameter: ##tocreate## ===

Accepted values:

* empty or not specified:

309

** if the current document does not exist, a terminal document will be created having the current document's reference, e.g. ##/create/Space/NewPage## creates "Space.NewPage"

310

** if the current document exists, the new document (specified using the ##spaceReference## + ##name## parameters pair) is created as a non-terminal document, e.g. ##/create/Main/WebHome?spaceReference=Space&name=NewPage## creates "Space.NewPage.WebHome".

311

** {{warning}}Deprecated since 7.2M1{{/warning}} if the current document exists, the new document (specified using the deprecated ##space## + ##pageName## parameters pair) is created as a terminal document, e.g. ##/create/Main/WebHome?space=Space&page=NewPage## creates "Space.NewPage".

312

* "terminal" - forces the new document to be a terminal document.

313

** Example: If "Space1.Space2.Page" is to be created, then it is already a terminal document and is not affected in any way by this setting, but if "Space1.Space2.WebHome" is to be created then it would be a non-terminal document by default. In this later case, specifying the tocreate=terminal parameter would force the creation of a terminal document instead, result in the creation of ##Space1.Space2## (i.e. the page named "Space2" in the space "Space1"), effectively going up one level in the Nested Spaces hierarchy.

314

** In the case of a top level space's WebHome document (e.g. "Space.WebHome"), this setting is ignored, since the top limit of the hierarchy is reached and there is nowhere else to go up. The resulting document to be created is thus "Space.WebHome".

315

* "space" - {{warning}}Deprecated since 7.2M1{{/warning}} The document to be created will always be a space WebHome (a.k.a a non-terminal document). This value is considered only when used in conjunction with the deprecated ##space## parameter. In this case, the deprecated ##page## parameter is completely ignored. For example: ##tocreate=space&space=MySpace## will result in "MySpace.WebHome".

316

317

=== Parameter: ##template## ===

318

319

A string serialized document reference of the document to use as template when creating the new document.

320

321

If empty, the new document will be a blank page.

322

323

If not specified, and existing template providers are available to choose from in the current space and the ##templateprovider## parameter is also not specified, no document will be created yet and the create UI will show up asking the user to choose a template provider from a list.

324

325

This parameter has precedence over the ##templateprovider## parameter, meaning that if both are specified, the ##templateprovider## will be ignored.

326

=== Parameter: ##templateprovider## ===

328

329

A string serialized document reference of the template provider document to use when creating the new document. The actual template document to use will be extracted from the specified template provider.

330

331

If the specified template provider is not allowed to be used in the space where the new document is created, then the create UI will be displayed with an error.

332

//Note//: This check is done for the ##spaceReference## of the new document to be created. Example: If we are creating the terminal document "Space.NewPage", the check is done for the space "Space". However, if we are creating the non-terminal document "Space.NewPage.WebHome", the check is done for the non-terminal document's space "Space" and not for actual document's reference space "NewPage".

333

334

If empty, the new document will be a blank page.

335

336

If not specified, and existing template providers are available to choose from in the current space and the ##template# parmeter is also not specified, no document will be created yet and the create UI will show up asking the user to choose a template provider from a list.##

337

338

If both this parameter and the ##template## parameter are specified, the ##template## parameter will be used instead of and this parameter will be ignored.

{{warning}}Deprecated since 7.2M1{{/warning}} A string representing an unescaped space name where the new document will be created, Example: "MySpace", "SpaceNameWith.Dots", etc.

351

352

//Note//: Because this is just a space name and not a space local reference, only top level space documents can be created, i.e. "TopLevelSpace.Document" is possible but not "TopLevelSpace.SecondLevelSpace.Document".

353

354

=== Parameter: ##pageName## ===

355

356

{{warning}}Deprecated since 7.2M1{{/warning}} A string representing the name of the new document. Example: "NewDocument"

== Action: ##skin## ==

361

362

Right now dynamic Skin Resources are handled as Entity Resources ([[which is not correct>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12449]]).

363

364

The additional URL paths for the ##skin## action is

365

366

* ##<filesystem path to resource>?<optional query string>## for Filesystem-based Skins

367

* ##<space1>/.../<spaceN>/<page>/<attachment name>## for a resource attached to a wiki page. Note that Velocity is executed only if the attachment has a CSS or Javascript extension name.

368

* ##<space1>/.../<spaceN>/<page>/<xobject property name>## for Skins defined in wiki pages and having an ##XWiki.XWikiSkins## xobject with a property named ##<xobject property name>##. Note that Velocity is executed only if the ##<xobject property name>## name has a CSS or Javascript extension name.

Examples:

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/skin/skins/flamingo/style.css?skin=XWiki.DefaultSkin&colorTheme=playground%3AFlamingoThemes.Charcoal##: Points to the ##style.css## resource located in the ##[xwiki webapp location]/skins/flamingo## directory on the filesystem (and if not found look for the resource in the base skin and default base skin).

373

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/skin/resources/uicomponents/search/searchSuggest.css##: Points to the ##searchSuggest.css## resource located in the ##[xwiki webapp location]/resources/uicomponents/search## directory on the filesystem.

374

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/skin/uicomponents/search/searchSuggest.css##: Similar as just above except that the ##resources## part has been omitted and if the resource doesn't exist in ##[xwiki webapp location]/uicomponents/search## then it's also searched for in ##[xwiki webapp location]/resources/uicomponents/search##

375

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/skin/XWiki/DefaultSkin/somefile.css##: Points to the ##somefile.css## attachment in the ##XWiki.DefaultSkin## wiki page (and if not found look for the resource in the base skin and default base skin).

376

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/skin/XWiki/DefaultSkin/edit.vm##: Points to the content of the ##edit.vm## property in the ##XWiki.XWikiSkins## xobject in the ##XWiki.DefaultSkin## wiki page (and if not found look for the resource in the base skin and default base skin).

377

378

== Action: ##objectadd## ==

379

380

Adds an XObject to the referenced page.

Examples:

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/objectadd/Space/Page?classname=Some.XClass##

385

* ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/bin/objectadd/Space/Page?classname=XWiki.XWikiGroups&XWiki.XWikiGroups_member=XWiki.JohnDoe##

386

387

=== Parameter: ##classname## ===

388

389

The full name of the document that holds the class which the object to be added should be instance of. Example: ##XWiki.XWikiGroups##.

390

391

=== Parameter: ##<classname>_<fieldname>## ===

392

393

This is an optional parameter. You can initialize the XObject properties by passing parameter names of the form ##<classname>_<fieldname>##, where ##classname## is the value given in the ##classname## parameter above and ##fieldname## is the name of the xproperty field to initialize. For example: ##XWiki.XWikiGroups_member## (provided that ##XWiki.XWikiGroups## has been given for the mandatory ##classname## parameter).

411

* ##<wiki name>##: the name of the subwiki, e.g. ##platform##.

412

* ##<bin subpath>##: the same path as for the ##bin## action (see above). For example, if you use ##http:~/~/<main wiki server>/xwiki/bin/download/XWiki/JohnDoe/john.png## you would use ##http:~/~/<main wiki server>/xwiki/wiki/<subwiki name>/download/XWiki/JohnDoe/john.png## to access the same attachment but located in a subwiki named ##<subwiki>##.

413

414

= Type: ##resources## =

415

416

Static template resources, e.g. ##http:~/~/<server>/xwiki/resources/js/prototype/prototype.js##.

426

427

428

Dynamic temporary resources, bound to a specific document and a specific module.

429

430

The format is ##temp/<Space>/<Document>/<module>/<file.ext>##, where:

431

432

* ##<Space>## and ##<Document>## identify the target document; currently only the last part of the space is supported

433

* ##<module>## is the name of the module that generated the resource, a short string used for avoiding conflicts between different modules generating temporary files with the same name

434

* ##<file.ext>## is the name of the temporary file
