Description

This macro is obsolete and is only supported for use with syntax/1.0. It may work with the new rendering engine but you should use the new Include Macro instead.

This macro renders the specified XWiki page in the context of the top level including document. If I create a DocumentA with content $doc.getName() then I create a document called DocumentB with content #includeInContext("DocumentA") When I view DocumentB the output will be DocumentB. To render a document in it's own context, use Include Topic Macro instead.

This macro will include the content of another page for viewing but if the user is editing the page in "inline mode", the page will not be included. This differs from the Include Form Macro which includes the document in inline edit mode as well.

Usage

#includeInContext("SpaceName.PageName")

Parameters definition

NameOptionalAllowed valuesDefault valueDescription
pageNamenoa stringnoneA page name using the syntax described below

The pagename parameter may take the following form:

[wiki:][space.]page

where optional parts are surrounded by brackets

  • If wiki is present, the space and page parts will refer to a document in the specified wiki in the context of an XWiki farm.
  • If space is present, then it will be used as part of the full page name, otherwise the space name of the enclosing document will be used 

Example

#includeInContext("dev:Community.IRC")

Equivalent Example Using Modern Include Macro

{{velocity}}
#if($xcontext.getAction() == "view")
{{include document="dev:Community.IRC" /}}
#end
{{/velocity}}
