Description

!WikiEditor4Eclipse is a new plug-in providing Trac Wiki editing capabilities to Eclipse IDE.

Features:

  • Trac Wiki Servers explorer
  • Eclipse Wiki Editor: currently, it borrows the editor from the original EclipseTracPlugin plugin.
  • Wiki Page managment: Creation, edition and page deletion.
  • Concurrent edition management:
    • Prevents overwriting other users changes when a concurrent edit happens.
    • Helps merge contents when a concurrent edit happens.

Instalation

!WikiEditor4Eclipse comprises a Wiki Editor as an Eclipse plugin that comunicates with Trac wiki server through the XmlRpcPlugin. It requires the following software to be installed:

Server

  • [download:eclipsetracplugin/tracrpcext/0.10 TracRpcExt] (optional): !WikiEditor4Eclipse reuses TracRpcExt plugin from EclipseTracPlugin to provide a page history view. This dependency is optional as the editor can work without it, but if its not installed and enabled you will miss page history functionality.

Client

You can check out !WikiEditor4Eclipse from here using Subversion, or browse the source with Trac.

Building from Source

In order to build !WikiEditor4Eclipse you will need the following software:

  • Subversion client
  • Java JDK >= 1.5
  • Tycho maven plugin (tested with version 0.3.0-DEV-1819)
  • Eclipse SDK >= 3.2 (tested with version 3.4.2)

svn co http://trac-hacks.org/svn/wikieditorforeclipseplugin/trunk/source/ WikiEditor4Eclipse
cd WikiEditor4Eclipse
/opt/tycho-distribution-0.3.0-DEV-1819/bin/mvn \
 -Dtycho.targetPlatform=/opt/eclipse/eclipse-SDK-3.4.2 \
 clean install -Dmaven.test.skip

This will create a local eclipse update site at TracWikiEditor?4Eclipse/source/eclipse/org.trachacks.wikieditor.eclipse.site/target/site you can point Eclipse Update Manager to.

Runing Tests

In order to run automated tests against a Trac server you will need to setup a local server
