| 3 | This sections aims to document all the front-end resources available in XWiki for application developers and for developers of the XWiki products. Front-end resources are of two main types: | ||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | * External Libraries | ||
| 6 | * Internal components (Based or not on some of the external libraries) | ||
| 7 | |||
| 8 | Front-end resources are mainly composed of JavaScript libraries, CSS stylesheets and their corresponding HTML reusable snippets (or velocity macro to output this snippet), and velocity macros. | ||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | Some of the resources presented in here are not included by default with all HTML-rendered wiki pages (it would be a lot too much things to send to the client!), you have to request their inclusion from a skin template or from the wiki page itself using the ##jsfx## plugin. For example, to request the inclusion of scriptaculous slider library, you can write, in [[XWiki Syntax 1.0>>Main.XWikiSyntax]]: | ||
| 11 | |||
| 12 | {{code}}$xwiki.jsfx.use("js/scriptaculous/slider.js"){{/code}} | ||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | In [[XWiki Syntax 2.0>>Main.XWikiSyntax]]: | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | {{code}} | ||
| 17 | {{velocity}} | ||
| 18 | $xwiki.jsfx.use("js/scriptaculous/slider.js") | ||
| 19 | {{/velocity}} | ||
| 20 | {{/code}} | ||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | The path you indicate to the ##jsfx## plugin is the relative path where the library can be found under the ##resources## directory of the XWiki webapp. Similarly to the ##jsfx## plugin, there is a ##ssfx## plugin that can be used to request the inclusion of CSS stylesheets files. | ||

| 25 | |||
| 26 | External resources are third party libraries bundled with the XWiki webapp as resources developers can use for their in-wiki applications or to enhance the wiki itself. Almost all of the (except prototype.js) are not included by default in HTML-rendered wiki pages. | ||
| 27 | |||
| 28 | Hereunder is a table presenting some of the external libraries XWiki comes with: | ||
| 29 | |||
| 30 | |image:prototype.gif |image:smartclient.png | ||
| 31 | |[[Prototype>>http://prototypejs.org]] is a //"JavaScript framework that aims to ease development of web applications"//. It extends the JavaScript native objects and browser objects providing utilities for Ajax, OOP-style classes, and so much more. Prototype is the only JavaScript library that is systematically shipped with any wiki page in XWiki. |[[Smartclient>>http://www.smartclient.com/]] is an AJAX RIA system to easily develop rich interface components. Using it in XWiki, you can build powerful front-end widgets that can leverage [[XWiki's RESTful API>>Features.XWikiRESTfulAPI]]. | ||
| 32 | |||
| 33 | * Scriptaculous | ||
| 34 | * YUI | ||
