For Developers

Realtime Communication (Netflux)

 
The new Netflux module provides support for real-time WebSocket-based communication in XWiki by offering:

  • a script service and a REST resource to help create and retrieve communication channels.
  • a WebSocket server end-point used to join channels and to exchange channel or direct user messages.

This can be used along with the Netflux Client to implement realtime-enabled extensions on top of XWiki (e.g. a chat application).

Miscellaneous

  • New event query helper: SimpleEventQuery now have helpers to manipulate custom event properties. It's done by calling parameter() to "switch" the next comparison to be about custom parameters instead of standard Event fields. See Event Stream Module for more details.

    • xwiki.properties
    • web.xml
