    XMLWordPrintable

    Details

    • Release Notes Summary:
      The Commentable facet is required to add comments to a document in the WebUI.
    • Upgrade notes:
      Hide

      Comments will only be available for document with the Commentable facet. Note that on 10.10, this check will only be done when setting the org.nuxeo.web.ui.enforceCommentable conf property to true:

      <require>org.nuxeo.web.ui.properties.contrib</require>
      <extension target="org.nuxeo.runtime.ConfigurationService" point="configuration">
        <property name="org.nuxeo.web.ui.enforceCommentable">true</property>
      </extension>
      

      to avoid a breaking change.

      Description

      Today the comments tab and widget are hardcoded in https://github.com/nuxeo/nuxeo-web-ui/blob/master/elements/document/nuxeo-document-page.js#L217. They are available for all document types and the only way to remove them would be to override this whole element through a slot contribution.

      Some custom projects may want to disable UI application wide comments feature. There is a Commentable facet but it is just ignored on both platform and client-side -> leftover from old implementation.

      We usually stick to a single pattern to enable/disable a feature which is the facet one like for Versionable (NXP-27873). Relying on a doctype facet allows to:

      • control granularity on doc types
      • fully disable it by ignoring its registration at runtime startup

      Unfortunately, If we decide to stick to the Commentable facet pattern for 10.10 it means that comments won't suddenly be available anymore for document types without the Commentable which could be seen as a breaking behavior.

      A possible solution, would be to introduce a Global UI conf on 10.10:

      <property name="org.nuxeo.web.ui.enforceCommentable">false</property>
      

      and check it to display comments widget and tab.
