List nested pages to fill menu entries

Help / Discuss

Hello,

I want to fill my menu entries (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Menu%20Application) with the document listing from a location.
Then with tree macro (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Document%20Tree%20Macro) I try to generate this output:

  • My location
    ** My doc 1
    *** A new level 1
    *** level 1 too
    ** Another doc

If someone already use the code or think about a better idea?
thanks.

Anyway I wonder if this kind of code will slow xwiki displaying…
(I will limit the deph of course)

What you’re trying to do seems close to http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Menu%20Application#HHierarchyPanel no?

Actually it might be not too bad since the menu app is using a UIX and UIX are cached (at the XDOM level).

yes I tested without success:

It seem that some parameter missing in doc: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Children%20Macro/
#macro (children $parentDoc $level)
I failed too with:
#set ($parentDoc = $xwiki.getDocument("Mon Espace.WebHome"))

This is why I talked about document tree macro .

(I forgot my glasses at work today, this is why I failed probably :wink: )

Yes thxs:

#set($MyDoc=$xwiki.getDocument("Personnalisation.Menu.Content.WebHome"))
#set ($depth = 3)
#set ($limit = 10)
#macro (children $parentDoc $level)
  #foreach ($child in $parentDoc.getChildren($limit, 0))
    #set ($childDoc = $xwiki.getDocument($child))
    ## $stringtool.repeat('*', $level) {{html}}<a href="$childDoc.getURL()">$escapetool.xml($childDoc.plainTitle)</a>{{/html}}
    $stringtool.repeat('*', $level) [[$childDoc]] ($escapetool.xml($childDoc.plainTitle))
    #if ($level < $depth)
      #children ($childDoc $mathtool.add($level, 1))
    #end
  #end
#end
## Call children macro above
#children ($MyDoc 1)
