New and Noteworthy (since XWiki 5.0.3)

Full list of issues fixed and Dashboard for 5.1.

Solr is the default search engine

We have redesigned the Solr search page to include faceted search and we improved the display of the advanced search options and the search results.

The Solr search module now automatically indexes all modifications made to the wiki. A synchronization background job is started at each XWiki startup to make sure the solr index and the database are in sync (only updates what needs to be updated). The manual indexing in the administration UI should also be a lot more stable since all the actual reading of wiki documents and their indexing is now done in a safe background thread.

Entities are now indexed with the list of supported locales (among the available locales). This means that if your current locale is "fr_FR" you will find all entities that you would have seen when the current locale is "fr_FR". For example if a document does not have any "fr_FR" explicit version you will still find the version you would have seen when going to that document (generally the default version of the document or the "fr" version of the document if any since the parent locale of "fr_FR" is "fr"). We call it locale inheritance.

See the documentation for the Solr Search Application for more details.

API Breakages

The following APIs were modified since XWiki 5.0.3:

• Young API: New method to separate job setup from job start to put real jobs in queue.
  org.xwiki.job.Job: Method 'public void initialize(org.xwiki.job.Request)' has been added to an interface
• Young API: New method to add a custom Job to the queue.
  org.xwiki.job.JobManager: Method 'public void addJob(org.xwiki.job.Job)' has been added to an interface
• Needed to fix XWIKI-9251 and the IRC Bot API is still relatively new and not a mainstream API used by lots of people.
  org.xwiki.ircbot.IRCBot: Method 'public java.lang.String getWikiId()' has been added to an interface
• Young API: The URL module has never been finished and we started working on it again.
  org.xwiki.url.InvalidURLException: Class org.xwiki.url.InvalidURLException removed
