| kirillka | giallu: Happy birthday! | 13:51 |
| * alexsander submitted a bug report for PHPMailer (used by Mantis): http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=26031&atid=385707 | 13:57 | |
| istvanb | hi there | 15:31 |
| istvanb | can u tell me how can I get the id of the user who is currently logged in? | 15:31 |
| istvanb | auth_get_current_user_id() | 15:32 |
| istvanb | i guess | 15:32 |
| heavy | I'd like to track time in mantis, what are my options or how do I do this? | 15:56 |
| istvanb | heavy: one sec | 16:00 |
| istvanb | add the following line to your config_inc.php: $g_time_tracking_enabled = ON; | 16:00 |
| istvanb | not very sophisticated, but allows you to set how much time you have spent | 16:01 |
| istvanb | if you want to handle due dates add something like this to your config_inc.php: | 16:02 |
| istvanb | $g_due_date_update_threshold = REPORTER; | 16:02 |
| istvanb | $g_due_date_view_threshold = VIEWER; | 16:02 |
| heavy | what happens when I add that $g_time_tracking_enabled = ON; ? | 16:05 |
| heavy | i turned it on previously and didn't notice anything | 16:05 |
| istvanb | well | 16:05 |
| istvanb | if you turn it on then add a note then under the note field a new field appears which allows you to tell how much time you have spent on the thing | 16:06 |
| istvanb | same when you move the issue to the next phase | 16:06 |
| heavy | cool, I see that now | 16:10 |
| heavy | is a total updated somewhere? | 16:11 |
| heavy | never mind :) | 16:11 |
| istvanb | I am not sure, since I dont use this function right now | 16:11 |
| heavy | trying the due date stuff now | 16:22 |
| heavy | ok, that's basically what I was looking for | 16:29 |
| heavy | emailing reminders is not in mantis core is it? | 16:29 |
| heavy | changing topics, when you select "date filters" in the view search, what dates are being used for that query? | 16:32 |
| istvanb | hello guys | 19:42 |
| istvanb | is there any developer here? | 19:42 |
| istvanb | if there is, would you close issue 12247 since it is a duplicate of 11912 | 19:44 |
| * micahg can look | 20:01 | |
| micahg | istvanb: it's your issue, so your call, but it's not an exact dupe | 20:02 |
| istvanb | its true. But as far as I see cas did the plugin, and I guess he monitors the issue 11912 | 20:03 |
| istvanb | there is a discussion about problems with the plugin and I guess its better to countinue with my mods in that issue than to launch a new one | 20:04 |
| istvanb | but if cas monitors issue 12247 as well then maybe its ok to keep it | 20:04 |
| micahg | istvanb: done | 20:04 |
| istvanb | sweet | 20:04 |
| istvanb | are you a developer? | 20:05 |
| micahg | istvanb: well, I'm a user, PHP dev, Ubuntu dev...I guess close enough :) | 20:05 |
| micahg | not core PHP, just I develop apps w/PHP | 20:05 |
| istvanb | I'd like to create my own plugin based on this one. (I have no clue about php, but have a coding history of 15 years) | 20:06 |
| istvanb | I am just wondering how to start | 20:06 |
| istvanb | there is a doc somewhere | 20:06 |
| * micahg thought there was | 20:06 | |
| nuclear_eclipse | http://docs.mantisbt.org/master/en/developers/ | 20:06 |
| micahg | hi nuclear_eclipse :) | 20:06 |
| istvanb | oh sweet! | 20:06 |
| nuclear_eclipse | hi micah | 20:06 |
| istvanb | the sleeping lion has awake :) | 20:06 |
| istvanb | hey eclipse! I have done something useful in issue 11912! I have promissed :) | 20:07 |
| nuclear_eclipse | foobot: bug 11912 | 20:07 |
| foobot | Bug 11912 - cas - open - new | 20:07 |
| foobot | Tasks plugin - http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=11912 | 20:07 |
| * micahg thinks he found a bug :) | 20:08 | |
| micahg | I specifically selected blank as assigned to when resolving the dupe and it still assigned it to me | 20:08 |
| nuclear_eclipse | micahg: apparently "that's not a bug, it's a feature".... | 20:08 |
| micahg | heh | 20:09 |
| micahg | nuclear_eclipse: so, I shouldn't file/search for it? | 20:09 |
| nuclear_eclipse | the code is explicitly handling that case when you resolve an issue | 20:09 |
| nuclear_eclipse | other instances too, iirc, it's any status >= assigned_status_threshold or something like that | 20:10 |
| micahg | I guess it makes sense | 20:11 |
| micahg | well, maybe not for resolved duplicate status? or is this just so admins can see who's taking care of all the bugs resolved dupes included? | 20:11 |
| nuclear_eclipse | I think that's the reason | 20:12 |
| micahg | k, makes sense then | 20:12 |
| nuclear_eclipse | there are summary sections based on what resolution users select | 20:12 |
| * micahg sees :) | 20:14 | |
| micahg | nuclear_eclipse: any chance of a new timecard plugin release? | 20:14 |
| nuclear_eclipse | micahg: I only wrote that plugin for my previous employer, so atm I don't have any personal need to update it, but I'll gladly accept contributions for it | 20:15 |
| micahg | nuclear_eclipse: ah ok, I think I saw an idea for a plugin that actually fits my needs better, I think I abuse Timecard as is | 20:16 |
| nuclear_eclipse | most of the community input has been feature requests, not code, so it just isn't going anywhere | 20:16 |
| nuclear_eclipse | maybe if I was getting paid to work on plugins again I would have some time to get to it | 20:16 |
| nuclear_eclipse | but atm, I'm far too busy with other projects to focus on anything I'm not personally using | 20:17 |
| micahg | foobot: bug 7945 | 20:17 |
| foobot | Bug 7945 - jci000 - open - new | 20:17 |
| foobot | Time tracking vs. time planning - http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=7945 | 20:17 |
| micahg | nuclear_eclipse: understandable, is it worth me trying to hack it up and getting patches in or working on the core code for the above but to get that working | 20:18 |
| micahg | *bug | 20:18 |
| nuclear_eclipse | micahg: I think most of the consensus among mantis devs is that creating an official migration from the builtin time tracking to the Timecard plugin would be preferable to fixing/improving the builtin feature | 20:19 |
| micahg | nuclear_eclipse: ok, so I should hack/enhance your plugin and submit patches then? | 20:20 |
| nuclear_eclipse | so if you wanted to work on improving the Timecard plugin, I'll gladly give you repo access and/or access to my tracker to handle some of the bug reports and feature requests if you want it | 20:20 |
| * micahg will bbiab | 20:20 | |
| istvanb | what is the comment sign in html? | 20:21 |
| nuclear_eclipse | <!-- ... --> | 20:22 |
| micahg | nuclear_eclipse: k, I'll let you know when I'm ready for that | 20:41 |
