Temporary bridge between new components and the old core, until the old core is completely split into components

Description

This is a technical module, for XWiki developers.

It offers some Model interfaces that don't make you depend on xwiki-platform-oldcore at compile time, such as:

• DocumentAccessBridge: exposes methods for accessing Document data, returning DocumentModelBridge to represent a Document.
• SkinAccessBridge: exposes methods for accessing Skin data.
• XWiki 14.0+ DocumentAuthors to manipulate the different authors of a document.

It also provides lots of Events that are useful when you wish to write an EventListener (see tutorial). Note that the "Source" and "Data" column below correspond to the parameters of the EventListener.onEvent(Event event, Object source, Object data) call.

• Document-related events:

  Event Name	Source	Data	Description
  DocumentCreatingEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent when a Document is being created, before it's saved to the store. This gives you the ability to modify the Document before the save or even cancel the save altogether (since 8.0M1)
  DocumentCreatedEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent after the Document has been created and saved. Allows you to perform extra actions (index the content, run some code, etc)
  DocumentDeletingEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent when a Document is being deleted, before it's deleted from the store.
  DocumentDeletedEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent after the Document has been deleted from the store.
  DocumentUpdatingEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent when a Document is being modified, before it's saved to the store. This gives you the ability to modify the Document further before the save or even cancel the save altogether (since 8.0M1)
  DocumentUpdatedEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent after the Document has been saved.
  DocumentRollingBackEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent before a Document is rolled-back.
  DocumentRolledBackEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent after a Document has been rolled-back.
  DocumentVersionRangeDeletedEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	XWiki 13.5+ Sent after one or several document history versions have been deleted
  DocumentVersionRangeDeletingEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	XWiki 13.7+ Sent before one or several document history versions are about to be deleted
  DocumentRestoringEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	XWiki 13.7+ Sent before a document is restored from the recycle bin
  DocumentRestoredEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	XWiki 13.7+ Sent after a document is restored from the recycle bin

• Wiki-related events:

  Event Name	Source	Data	Description
  WikiReadyEvent	wiki id (String)	XWikiContext object	Sent when a wiki is ready to service request (and it's store schema has been updated)
  WikiCreatingEvent	wiki id (String)	XWikiContext object	Sent just before a wiki is created
  WikiCreatedEvent	wiki id (String)	XWikiContext object	Sent just after a wiki has been created (after provisioning has been done, see below)
  WikiCreateFailedEvent	wiki id (String)	XWikiContext object	Sent when a wiki has failed to be created
  WikiCopiedEvent	wiki id (String)	XWikiContext object	Sent after a wiki has been copied. Note that this event is an Event that predates the wiki provisioning concept and it's not sent when provisioning
  WikiDeletedEvent	wiki id (String)	XWikiContext object	Sent after a wiki has been deleted
  WikiProvisioningEvent	wiki id (String)	XWikiContext object	Sent before a wiki has been provisioned (i.e. before the content of the wiki has been filled), during the wiki creation process
  WikiProvisionedEvent	wiki id (String)	XWikiContext object	Sent after a wiki has been provisioned (i.e. after the content of the wiki has been filled), during the wiki creation process

• Other types of events:

  Event Name	Source	Data	Description
  ApplicationReadyEvent	XWiki object	XWikiContext object	Sent when the XWiki application is ready to service requests. Note that at this stage the store is ready.
  ActionExecutingEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent when an Action is requested (view, edit, etc) but before the Action is performed. Note that this Event is cancelable.
  ActionExecutedEvent	XWikiDocument object	XWikiContext object	Sent after an Action (view, edit, etc) has executed.
