I think you're looking for a detailView
<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/ref/class-based-views/generic-display/#generic-display-views>
.

You'll likely need to pass  in your URL config to the
view in order to filter the boqmodel by the foreignKey.

Here's a video explaining detailViews.

You could create a group for each project , and include members in
that group , then implement group based permissions .

Re: What's the best way to implement project permissions in a project management app?

[Godshall]

I would recommend looking at the projects app in Pinax for a good
approach for this: 
http://github.com/pinax/pinax/blob/master/pinax/apps/projects/models.py

Basically, it uses a ManyToMany "members" field that you can add and
remove users to/from the project.  That particular example uses an
intermediary User model called ProjectMember to store extra info for
the user, but that's optional.  If you don't use an intermediary User
model, you will need to change the user_is_member method to something
like:

def user_is_member(self, user):
return user in self.member_queryset() # where
self.member_queryset() returns self.members.all()

This approach will give you per-project permissions like you
requested.

That looks like what I need. Thanks. Though I also need per-project
permissions; so user 'bob' can access tickets on Project A but not on

time to see if they implement per group permissions.

Have a look at django-todo. A quick read the other day indicated to me

Announcing django-projector - django project management app with mercurial repositories support build-in

[lukaszb]

It took more time than I expected but there it is: project management
with repositories support.

So? What's in? Well, there is repository content browser, support for
mercurial push/clone over http, simple issue tracker (which have to be
revisited probably), members & teams, permissions etc. There are a lot
of features we haven't implemented yet or even stated (like code
review). Moreover, currently application doesn't support other scm's
but there is some work on the way to support git (we use
http://bitbucket.org/marcinkuzminski/vcs but both Martin and I haven't
worked on it much during the summer - Martin focused on his
http://bitbucket.org/marcinkuzminski/hg-app/src and I was working on
projector... and hey, it's summer!).

Website was launched today and is available at http://www.django-projector.org.
Documentation (http://packages.python.org/django-projector/) is still
rather basic and there are no buildout scripts yet so it may not be
straightforward how to deploy application.

Codes are available at http://bitbucket.org/lukaszb/django-projector/
and I plan to move them out at the https://forge.django-projector.org
but it depends on the feedback - I'm aware that it would be much
easier to collaborate at bitbucket right now.

I've also created mailing list here: 
http://groups.google.com/group/django-projector.

Oh, yep, there is a demo application. It was deployed at other
location a week ago but I've moved it to https://forge.django-projector.org
now. Anyone willing to check django-projector in action - just visit
the site, sing up and try it!

I'm aware of many issues - some of them are already stated at
http://bitbucket.org/lukaszb/django-projector/issues and some of them
not (like there is no option to allow anonymous/not members of public
projects to file a bug or Team conversion requires specific user
profile model). But according to publish-early-policy I've decided to
announce it anyway.

Motivation: github/bb are great services and it was something strange
to me that there are no open sourced similar projects (sure, there are
*plenty* of issue trackers with repository browsers, and only a few
rather still not deployable approaches to provide full repository
support). I've searched for application that integrates tightly with
scm - ended up with projector which provides bridge between django and
mercurial build-in server. I'm still unsure about git here, though -
and would gladly hear for any suggestions!

If you have any questions, please contact me at
lukaszbalcer...@gmail.com .

Regards,
Lukasz

Re: project management app

Hi,

I've seen this mail and I'm also developing a project management  
application on my own (at least until I have the first beta) but if  
you want to take a look you can get it from my personal server, it's  
a bazaar repository:


bzr://halcyon.zapto.org/supervise

If the server does not answer try again after some minutes.

Cheers,
Oscar Carballal

[Bobby Roberts]

hi all.

I've found http://code.google.com/p/django-project-management/ out
there as a project management app but have yet to install it and see
what all it can do.  Has anyone installed this and do you have an
opinion on it?  Is there anything else out there for project
management?

I'm looking for some adequate invoicing django-app - something like
SimpleInvoices (http://simpleinvoices.org/) - only with support for
Postgresql and (possibly) Django.

(One option I consider is Tryton (http://www.tryton.org/) - fork of
OpenERP.

I've also tried Minibooks from Caktus, but it looks that both (brookie
& minibooks) are tied to your specific consulting needs as web
developers while our need would be (to track patients in small
homeopathic/counselling clinic and) creating invoices for the clients.

Do you plan to work further on brookie and is there any plan to
abstract the code a bit in order to make it more useful as reusable
app?


Sincerely,
Gour

Re: Django Project Management App

[Greg Brown]

Cheers for the feedback folks. Just to be clear, my app doesn't handle
code repositories or bug tracking at all - it's very much a one-user
system at the moment. I actually just run it on my Macbook in a
terminal (applescripted on startup). It's somewhat similar to basecamp
I guess, albeit much simpler - per-project todo lists, time tracking,
and invoice generation are pretty much all it can do for now.

Anyway, once I've found some time to clean it up, I'll unleash it on
the world and see what happens...

Cheers,
Greg

Of course, do it.

There is one. I searched for an alternative to trac some time ago. Basie
can handle several SVN-Repositories (Trac does not) and uses django.

But I had to time to try it:

Re: Django Project Management App

Hi Greg,

> I'm wondering if it would be worth open sourcing it?

I think it's always worthwhile to open-source software when there aren't
any other solutions in that area.

The coincidence is that we just created a invoice/quote admin  
application
for Django. I'm still writing a blog post about it. But you can see it  
here:

http://bitbucket.org/breadandpepper/django-brookie/

Maybe we could learn from your application because we just build this  
one in
a 2 day sprint.

+1

I think it would be well worthwhile.

I just downloaded Satchmo to see how a Django app should be structured; 
not because I want a shopping site. Satchmo is a very sophisticated 
piece of Django/Python obviously comprising many man-years of work.

If you open source your app it could serve the dual purpose of showing 
newbies (like me) a working app of only a year or so's sophistication 
(much easier to get one's head around) plus a project management tool.

Go for it :)

Django Project Management App

[Greg]

Hi all,

Since I started with django a year or so ago, I've been gradually
building a very simple project management app for myself - it started
as a project to learn the language but has evolved into a very useful
tool, handling all my timetracking, task management and invoicing.

I'm wondering if it would be worth open sourcing it? Right now it's
very much set up for me and me only, but it wouldn't take too much
effort to make it a portable app that others could use. I've looked
for django project management projects to use and/or contribute to,
but there doesn't seem to be any out there.

Any thoughts?

Greg

Ok - forget it - I figured it out! I found the django pages on how to
serve static files and that showed me what I need to know and it looks
great now.

Re: open source project management app that uses django?

[Margie]

Ok - this is very useful!  It is just great to see a "real" app that
does something similar to what I want.  The code looks very nice and
seems simple to understand.  I have downloaded it and integrated into
my little play django application, but I have one problem.  In the
README it says:


6. Inside your MEDIA_ROOT folder, create a new folder called
'helpdesk' and
   copy the contents of helpdesk/htdocs/ into it. Alternatively,
create a
   symlink:
ln -s /path/to/helpdesk/htdocs /path/to/media/helpdesk

   This application assumes all helpdesk media will be accessible at
   http://MEDIA_PATH/helpdesk/

I did the ln, but I don't understand how to make the contantes of
media/helpdes accessible at http://MEDIA_PATH/helpdesk/

What do I do to make them "accessible"?

Re: open source project management app that uses django?

[maeck]

You can use the standard css from the admin for your both the admin
pages as the custom reports.
Just load the admin css and follow the same html.

Works for me.

On Behalf Of Margie

Hi everyone,

I would like to create a django project managment web app to be used
internally in my company.  I am a software developer, but have little
experience with web apps other than my recent work going through the
sams django tutorial book.

I'm wondering if anyone knows of any open source/free django web app
that I might be able to use to get started on this project.  Let me
describe the usage model to give you an idea of what I'm aiming for.

At a very high level, the usage model for this web app is that a
"manager" assigns tasks to "employees" on a weekly basis. Associated
with each task is a set of measurements that must be performed by the
employee as he/she does the task.  The measurements vary based on the
task, and somemes the measurement is reported with a comment string,
sometimes a number, or sometimes a check mark in one of 'n' radio
boxes.   As the employees complete the tasks, they fill in the
measurements.  At the end of the week, the manager can look at each
task and review the resulting measurements, and based on that data,
decide the next weeks'  tasks.

Unlike a project mangament tool like MS Project, which helps you
schedule and gannt chart the schedule, this is really a tool to for
enhancing project communication.  It is intended to allow the manager
to easily communicate tasks to the employees, get the results back,
and then make decisions about what the next set of tasks sould be.
All without having to spend a lot of time emailing and talking to
people.  In the environement where it will be used, the manager is
getting results back from maybe 100 different employees, each of which
have a few tasks to do.  The data is not complex, but there is just
too much of it to manage without a tool.  Currently folks are using
wiki and excel, but in my opninion this is not really automated
enough.

My thought is that a django web client could provide a very simple and
easy to use interface, and could also be extended to get all sorts of
nice long term trend information.  For exmaple, t would be interesting
to know if a project being run at site A executes task 'foo' more
frequently or for longer periods of time than a project being run at
site B.  As data is across multiple similar projects, it seems that it
could be mined for lots of interesting info to help improve the
productivity of future projects.

Ok - so hopefully you get the idea.  Now for my questions:

* Does anyone know of existing web apps (django or otherwise) like
that already exists?

* Does this sound like something that would be good to do in Django?

* Does anyone know of any free/open source software (django based)
that I could use as a starting point?  Not being a web developer, I
know that if I do this from scratch, I will probably not do a great
job.  No doubt there are a ton of intracacies to window layout, the
structure of the models, the html templates, and other things I
haven't even thought of.  So I'm thinking it would be great to
bootstrap from some existing code, even if it doesn't do quite what I
want.  I would be happy to contribute my own work back to the open
source community.

Thanks for any ideas!

Margie

Re: open source project management app that uses django?

[Margie]

Thanks - yes, that is pretty much the approach I am planning to take,
but I just figured I'd see if there was anything interesting out there
that would give me a spiffy look and feel for the reporting pages.
One thing that I find confusing is how to come up with a color
scheme.  I know that seems sort of low priority, but I swear the first
thing people notice is if your colors are "ugly" or very basic looking
(ie, black and white).

Anyway, I will proceed with putting the models together as that is
clearly the meat of the project at this poitn.  I just learned about
CRUD tonight, and I can see how that is very nice.

Thanks,
Margie

Margie,

If you can think up a decent model, you might be able to setup the
core of the project management application in the Django contrib.admin
module.
Development will go fast as long as you can stay with standard CRUD
pages.
The admin model will also give you the user security hooks necessary
for the manager and employees.

As soon as you nee a need for reporting pages or ways to do things a
little more complex than the admin can give you, you can build custom
pages for those. But I would think you could have 80% of your app
running only by setting up the database models and nice admin pages.

open source project management app that uses django?

Hi everyone,

Project Management App

[Chris Hoeppner]

Hey there!

I wonder if anyone knows if there's an app resembling ActiveCollab (or  
Basecamp, for illustration's sake) that I could plug into a django  
project.

If not, would it be a worthy project with an audience?
