The Idea
The idea is to allow users to publish their own applications created with AppWithinMinutes.
Steps to reproduce:
- The user creates his application.
- Once the application is fully completed (several fields, description), AppWithinMinutes live table shows a new action possibility that allow the creator (only ?) to publish the application. We can add an entry to extension manager (administration left menu, under Add extensions): Share applications (same look).
- Once he clicked, we allow users to choose the pages he wants to commit : class, template, sheet and space home page by default.
- If the user is already connected on extension.xwiki.org, the process begins, else, the user has to fill in his credentials/create a new account.
- Once he is connected, he is redirected to extensions.xwiki.org with some fields already filled in, but let him fill the others (summary, compatibility, etc.).
Difficulties/Questions to improve
- How to prevent lots of bad applications
- How to merge with extensions manager
Result
See the Share AppWithinMinutes Application.
