Jean-Vincent Drean 23.3 7 XWiki allows user to access documents and objects with [[HQL>>http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/stable/core/reference/en/html/queryhql.html]] queries in [[Velocity>>http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/docs/user-guide.html]] scripts.

Vincent Massol 21.1 27 The examples below will show you various HQL queries that you can write.
28
Vincent Massol 15.1 29 === Simple Query ===
30
Vincent Massol 21.1 31 Displays all documents who have been created by the user ##XWiki.JohnDoe##:
Jean-Vincent Drean 1.3 32
Vincent Massol 21.1 33 {{code language="none"}}
34 #set($hql = "where doc.creator='XWiki.JohnDoe'")
35 {{/code}}
36
Vincent Massol 15.1 37 === Ordered Query ===
38
Vincent Massol 21.1 39 Displays all documents who have been created by the user ##XWiki.JohnDoe## and sorted by document's last modification date, in ascending order:
Jean-Vincent Drean 1.21 40
Vincent Massol 21.1 41 {{code language="none"}}
42 #set($hql = "where doc.creator='XWiki.VincentMassol' order by doc.date asc")
43 {{/code}}
44
Vincent Massol 15.1 45 === Advanced Query (date & time) ===
Jean-Vincent Drean 1.35 46
flavius 27.1 47 {{velocity}}
48 {{html wiki="true"}}
Vincent Massol 21.1 49 #info("Since there is no [[standard way to calculate dates interval in HQL>>http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2434]] those queries are a bit unnatural.")
flavius 27.1 50 {{/html}}
51 {{/velocity}}
Jean-Vincent Drean 1.21 52
Vincent Massol 21.1 53 {{code language="none"}}
54 #set($hql = "where year(doc.date) = year(current_date()) and month(doc.date) = month(current_date()) and day(doc.date) = day(current_date()) and hour(doc.date) > (hour(current_time()) - 1) order by doc.date desc")

58 === Query documents older than 3 days ===
59
60 The following snippet deletes all documents in the space TempDocs that are older than 3 days.
61 For the computation of the relative age, a calendar object created by the $datetool is used and passed to the hibernate query. Tested with MySQL only.
62
63 {{code language="none"}}
64 #set($hql="select doc.fullName from XWikiDocument as doc where doc.web = ? and doc.creationDate < ? ")
65 #set($cal = $datetool.systemCalendar)$cal.add(7,-3)
66 #set($olderTempDocs=$xwiki.search($hql,5000, 0, ["TempdDocs",$datetool.toDate($cal)]))
67 #foreach($x in $olderTempDocs)$xwiki.getDocument($x).deleteWithProgrammingRights()#end
