How to detect that a document deletion takes place in a renaming context

[slauriere]

Hi everyone,

In the frame of an extension which has to perform some actions on page removal, I was wondering whether there’s a canonical way to detect that a DocumentDeletedEvent takes place in a renaming context by opposition to a complete page removal. Currently, the listener performs the check below using the ObservationContext, but there might be something more appropriate, what do you think?

observationContext.isIn(new JobStartedEvent("refactoring/rename"));

Cheers

No, that’s exactly what ObservationContext was made for.

@slauriere

observationContext.isIn(new JobStartedEvent("refactoring/rename"));

While the use of ObservationContext is the right direction the event you are using is not the most accurate one if you are running in XWiki 11.1+: you should look for DocumentRenamingEvent instead.

Thanks Thomas, I’ll use DocumentRenamingEvent instead then.
