  • Workspace


Designed to aggregate information that is relevant for a given spike or iteration.

Description

A workspace typically contains documents of entity doctypes. A topic space is a collaboration space where information is added quickly without the burden to think about an organization scheme in advance or care for updating the information. A team may use a workspace to run a spike or an iteration and decide after the work is done (and knowledge on the subject has been gained) which information is worth to be preseved (in a topic space) and which will simply be archived.

A diary or journal is also a workspace. The key is that pages in this space do not need to be updated. They are considered records instead of documents.

Related Terms

Aspect
An aspect is a document attached to another document to supply properties and sections. Aspects support modular documentation while the information can be still accessed in one document.
Attachment Space
Attachment spaces are delegate spaces for entity doctypes.
Context Controlled Macros
A context controlled macro uses properties from its context to control the content being rendered. This includes document and space properties.
Deep Link
Deep links reference properties in referenced documents.
Delegate Document
A delegate document references one document to inherit properties and sections.
Delegate Space
Delegate spaces help to organize information that is used by more than one space. Resources may be delegated to other spaces. This includes the definition of space properties and providing homepages for documents of a given type.
Doctype Add-on
Doctype add-ons provide blueprints for the projectdoc Toolbox. All doctype add-ons are available in source code on Bitbucket. This way teams may download them and adapt them to their specific requirements.
Document Instance
A projectdoc document instance is based on a document type. Documents are created using page wizards provided by blueprints.
Document Property
A property is metadata for a document. It has name, a value, and a control (such as hide).
Document Section
A document type defines property and sections. A section is part of a document with a title and a body. Sections may be nested.
Document Type
A document type (doctype) defines the properties and section for document instances. It also provides home and index pages. In Confluence these doctypes are implemented as page blueprints, usually with one template. This template is used to create new pages in Confluence.
Document Type Homepage
The default homepage for documents of a given type.
Document Type Index Page
Index pages provide views on document instances of a given type.
Entity Document Type
Instances of this type provide information on an entity of the domain.
Index Space
Delegate space that provides space properties and organizing doctype homepages for other spaces.
Nameless Documents
Feature to derive a document's name from its title.
Organizing Document Type
Instances of this type organize documents by providing metadata.
Phantom Reference
A reference to a document or fragment of an existing document that does not exist.
projectdoc Extension
Features we assume are not relevant to all users of the projectdoc Toolbox are available as extensions. Extensions are add-ons for Confluence that require the projectdoc Toolbox Add-on to be installed, but can be installed separately on demand.
Prototype
A member of a set of document instances of a common doctype. Used to be imported into wiki instances since they provided information to be used in different projects. Examples are topic types, resource types, and module types.
Remote Controlled Document
A remote controlled document uses macros that enable to control the content being rendered by request parameters.
Remote Controls
Remote controls are sequences that allow to configure macros in transcluded content. This reconfiguration alters the rendering result of the macro. Only macros supporting the remote control feature can be remote controlled.
Search Space
Search spaces extend the search with projectdoc macros for a space per default on a number of other spaces.
Space Hierarchy
A relation of spaces based on delegation or search.
Space Property
A property defined on the space homepage that takes effect on the space and delegating spaces.
Topic Space
Designed to keep information that is relevant for a given domain and is mandated to be up-to-date.
Type Doctypes
Document types that define types for documents.

Resources

Topic Space

Iteration
Document an Iteration that may be linked from JIRA. Allows the team to set the goal and add notes relevant to a particular iteration.
Keep a Journal
In order to take personal notes on one's own work and to reflect upon what has to be done or has been done, keep a journal. The information in the journal should be shareable at least with all team members.
Developer Diaries
A short introduction to developer diaries.
Frequency of Change
Consider content by the frequency of change. Group content in information sets that change in the same frequency. The most important category for changes is the record, which implies no change.
