Hi Emanuele, I'm afraid to say that the WikiEngine is very needed: JSPWiki syntax not only covers direct to html syntax (i.e., * translating to an html list), but also variable resolution, plugin execution,authorization.. There are also filters which, not being present in the syntax, modify the html presented to the user. All those things need a WikiEngine to be parsed. And there's also some markup which is directly tied to configuration present on the Engine, f.ex., interwiki links, or toggling image inlining.
A WikiEngine acts nowadays mostly as a DI container, so, given that it may take a bit to start, it shouldn't affect too much to your application, and doesn't force you to declare JSPWiki's servlets / filters whatever on your application. In fact, for tests we tend to use a TestEngine (an implementation of the WikiEngine suitable for tests), so it's not that it will make your application unusable. A couple of things could be done to speed up the Engine initialization. Easiest that comes to mind would be to provide mock implementations for most of the Engine's managers. As for the syntax to text conversion, JSPWiki's markup parsers generate a WikiDocument, which is a specialization of a JDom2's Document. Providing that to the CleanTextRenderer should be enough for what you want. HTH, juan pablo p.s.: out of curiosity, which version of JSPWiki are you working with? Do you know in what version Codebeamer forked the wiki, or if they keep it up to date with latest JSPWiki?
