!To Edit Addresses, Templates, Actions, etc. #Start the server (using the ComSwiki Launcher) #Bring up the window menu for the SwikiBrowser #-This is done by pressing the icon next to the X button #Select 'open swiki browser...' Updates made in the SwikiBrowser will take immediate effect. !Addresses -addresses are smalltalk blocks -for instance, swiki/4.edit has an 'edit' address -request, response, shelf, book and page are sent to the 'edit' page address and what returns is the page content (a string) -addresses are compiled and loaded into memory at startup !Templates -templates are the HTML files which are used by the addresses to display information -for instance, the default template (for viewing) is 'view' (page since it is only to be used for pages) -templates call actions by having the name of the action surrounded by '<?' and '?>' --for instance, '<?bookName?>' maps to '(book pages at: 1) showName' --a book template can only call book actions --a page template can call both book and page actions -templates are loaded into memory at startup !Actions -actions are smalltalk blocks called by templates to add functionality -a book action receives request, response, shelf and book -a page action receives request, response, shelf, book and page -actions are compiled and loaded into memory at startup !Setup -the 'setup.xml' file contains the information that the shelf will need to know to initialize that specific book. -setup is not inherited !Settings -the 'settings.xml' file contains the static objects that the Swiki will need to run, such as formatter, color scheme, file locations, etc. -these settings are compiled and loaded into memory at startup -settings are inherited !Shelf -the shelf is the place where the requests come in. The shelf decides whether the request should be processed by a book or by itself. !Books -the book holds the pages. -the settings for the book are values it uses during processing and can be altered. -the modules are things that are created at run time (usually through the initialize priv address) and are not stored. !Pages -the pages are processed at startup (text and old versions are not loaded into memory for memory conservation) -do NOT edit pages manually while the server is running since this can cause serious problems
