You can use

for a stable target to point svn to.

[rt-users] [Patch] Default to Reply when resolving tickets

2008-10-29 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

if you want your RT to default to Reply instead of Comment when
you Resolve a ticket, this patch is for you. Of course, using
the overlay directory is better than simply patching the sources.

If anyone tells me how to access RT_SiteConfig parameters
from within Tabs, I will make a proper patch which can then be
applied to RT trunk. :)

You can edit etc/initialdata and run poke rt-setup-database for

No, but jibsheet in #rt suggested this approach as you can then check in
your changes into svn. Also, I could not find any useful snippets for the
scrip conditions (i.e. what is needed, what to leave out when compared to
the file-based approach) whereas it's trivial to template from the files.

[rt-users] Creating my own Scrip conditions

2008-10-20 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

I have created a lib/RT/Condition/ZabbixEventStatusChange.pm which
contains the following (pruned down to the relevant part):

sub IsApplicable {
my $self = shift;
if ($self->TransactionObj->Field =~ /zabbix_event_status/) {
return(1);
}
else {
return(undef);
}
}

Also, I added

{

  Name => 'On zabbix_event_status Change',
  # loc
  Description  => 'Whenever a ticket\'s
zabbix_event_status changes',# loc
  ApplicableTransTypes => 'Set',
  ExecModule   => 'ZabbixEventStatusChange',
},

to @ScripConditions in etc/initialdata .

I have four questions regarding this:

1) Is the this the correct thing to do? If not, what is the correct
approach? The condition does not show up in RT, even after an Apache
restart which included killing the mason cache, so I probably did
something wrong.

2) Is =~ /foo/ the correct thing to do, here? I decided to play it save
and not match too narrowly, atm.

3) What happens if a user sets his locale to, say, french, for which I
did not provide a translation. Will RT fall back gracefully?

4) Can I overlay .po files? I did not even try as I suspect that will
not work, anyway.


All feedback extremely appreciated. RT fits our needs better and better,
I just need to iron out the last few things, including this one :)


Richard


PS: If someone can tell me how to merge tickets from within the scrip I
am writing, that would be awesome. Else, I will just figure it out,
myself :)

PPS: The goal is to merge all tickets our Zabbix instances create to
inform us of trigger changing to OFF into the tickets which set the
initial ON for the tuple of zabbix instance & event id. If anyone needs
such a thing for themselves, I will share, gladly.

[rt-users] Accessing the ticket object from lib/RT/ObjectCustomFieldValue_Overlay.pm

2008-10-20 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

I am working on extending what you can display in a Custom Field's URL.
For that, I need to access the ticket object. The problem is that, at
this scoping level, $TicketObj does not exist.
Thus, I need to build a new one, at this point.

I tried to bake my own, using

  my $TicketObj = LoadTicket(@{[$self->ObjectId]});

within _FillInTemplateURL() in ObjectCustomFieldValue_Overlay.pm , which
resulted in

  Can't call method "_Accessible" without a package or object
reference at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/DBIx/SearchBuilder/Record.pm
line 423.

which smells of lacking context. Is it even possible to do what I want,
here? Am I better off filling the values for this at an earlier point?
If yes, where?

Finally, would such a feature be desirable for RT at large, i.e. would a
patch be accepted?


Thanks,
Richard

Hi all,

while I was looking for a way to default to reply on resolve, not
comment on resolve (which I still did not find out how to as google has
way too many false positives), billybongo from #rt came up with a neat

blurb when you send out a reply.

That should be easy to do via Scrips, but I could not make it work.

[rt-users] How to show a user-specific link in certain tickets?

2008-09-29 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

I was wondering if there is a way to present a link to each user,
depending on what is in a ticket.

What I mean boils down to, in Perl/RT pseudocode:

print "http://foo.org/".get_user_data(__CURRENTUSER__)."/".__CF.BAR__ if
(__CF.BAR__);

This should then be shown in all ticket details. The background is that
I want users to be able to just click a link and have our Asterisk call
from their extension to whoever is in the CF.

Thanks for taking the time to explain your process. It seems to me that you
are mainly using parent/child vs depends for management purposes, i.e. to
show which business unit did what.
You do this at the loss of automatic sanity checking (i.e. forcing the large
ticket to stay open until all subtickets have been closed), but from how you
write, I assume it's working nicely, for you.


I still can't see the advantage in this scheme (for example, you could use
depends and another CF that holds the name of the department), but as
I said, I may simply think about this the wrong way and/or just work
differently.


Again, thanks for your mail,

[rt-users] Difference between Parent/Child and Depends on/Depended on by?

2008-09-22 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

what is the conceptual difference between Parent/Child and Depends on/
Depended on by? To me, they mean essentially the same and I can't come
up with a use case where both would be used simultaneously or even just
differently.

If there is no real difference, wouldn't it make sense to deprecate
either (while still supporting it, of course).

[rt-users] Feature suggestion: Tree view of tickets

2008-09-22 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

I would like to bounce an idea to this list:

A tree view mode for search results. Obviously, this would be a large
change, especially if it is done in a generic way. A generic framework
would be able to create structures on any combination of
inter-relations, but the main use case I can see is to make dependent
tickets more manageable.

Consider this example

#1 Buy beer
#3 [+] Go camping (0/5)
#2 Buy junk food

Now, I click on the plus in front of #2:

#1 Buy beer
#3 [-] Go camping (0/5)
 #4 Pack tent
 #5 Pack sleeping bag
 #6 [+] Call friends (0/2)
#2 Buy junk food

#6 would have a 2 sub-tickets of its own, Alice & Bob. After calling
Alice and packing my tent, I would see this:

#1 Buy beer
#3 [-] Go camping (2/5)
 #5 Pack sleeping bag
 #6 [+] Call friends (1/2)
#2 Buy junk food


The obvious benefit is that you are a _lot_ more aware of what is going
on with nested ticket dependencies.


There are a few considerations which relate to this:

1) How to handle circular dependencies? How to break them?

2) Should finished tickets in this structure be shown or hidden?
Ideally, this would be an option, with the shown tickets using RT's
ticket-inactive CSS style.

3) Should clicking a [+] expand all or just the current sub-tree? Or
should it remember the open/closed status of all tree nodes and restore
to whatever was there before?

4) Should the n in the (n/m) display show open or finished ticket count?
Again, this would ideally be an option or, even better, all data would
be accessible via Display Columns of Search.html .


The largest problem I see is 1); RT supports graphs whereas my suggested
scheme is a tree. The trade-off between usability, displayability (made
up a word, yay!) and coding effort on the one hand and data handling
capabilities on the other hand is, imo, a good one in this case, though.


If this feature suggesion is deemed worthy, what would be the
approximate time-frame of this seeing the light of day?

Richard

2008-08-25 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

yet another RFC which I might turn into wishlist items.

1) Should it be possible to order messages by read/unread messages
within said ticket?

2) Should it be possible to bolden/color/whatever the values of certain
fields and/or whole lines depending on user-defined rules?

3) Who else would like to be able to use seperators between tickets? For
example, I would love to have thin seperator lines between all blocks of
tickets that have a different priority.

4) This is probably very hard to, but if dashboards could have
sub-dashboards, you could open/close whole sections of your dashboard
using some AJAX magic..

I am talking about both. The quick create lacks it completely, the normal
create has it in an inconvenient place which most users (I know this from
experience) don't even see.

[rt-users] RFC: Optional extra fields in ticket creation?

2008-08-18 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

when I create tickets, I usually need to go to the ticket just created
and assign it a priority & various dependencies. What I would love to
have is one of those up/down arrows to click upon which then fold
a few extra fields in/out using Javascript.

Could others use something like this, as well?

Of course. But as I already rely on the bookmark dashboard quite heavily, this
would make things easier, for me. Also, as I have all dashboards in full width,
below each other, the extra border & decoration eats (relatively) lots
of vertical
screen real estate.

[rt-users] RFC: Full ticket view when replying?

2008-08-12 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

yes, it's me again. How useful would others on the list find an option
that would allow you to show the full ticket while replying
to/commenting on it?

Basically, there are two possibilities:

1) Add the ticket below the normal text box, sprip & recipient options
2) Put the text box in-line as, for example, GMail does


I find myself opening the ticket in another tab to cross-reference very
often so I'd like such a thing, no idea how that could tie into the way
others work, though.

No idea about Outlook, but appending at the very end is, for me, a Very
Good Thing as it makes replying cleanly a lot easier.

Basically, when I know people well and don't want to mess up a perfectly
fine email by all the usual corporate stuff at the end. Not too high priority,
granted. Just a nice to have.


To summarize, the only thing I would really want is an option to not
attach anything on comments, the rest is optional/nice-to-have.

[rt-users] RFC: Splitting the signature off from the main text in replies/comment?

2008-08-11 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

Basically, I am proposing to create a second text area/a simple selection
button that allows you to control when your signature and/or the company's
signature is attached.

Some reasons for this, certainly not including everything:

*) Signatures on comments are useless and just take up screen real estate
*) Replying in-line is ackward as you can't simply mark all text below the
  point where you stop typing and delete all
*) Sometimes, you do not want to have a signature on replies


If I could decide when to attach a signature and when not would solve these.
Also, I think comments should default to not having a signature at all.

[rt-users] Is there a way to teach RT new bounce emails?

2008-08-04 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

overall, the ping-pong detection of RT when it talks to another
email system with automated answers is very good.

But sometimes, neither side recognizes that automatic ping-pong is being
done and so you get _very_ long tickets. There are ways to manually
break this loop, but I was wondering if I can teach RT new emails it can
ignore safely.

[rt-users] RFC: Should a bookmarked ticket disappear when it is deleted?

2008-07-28 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

at the moment, deletion trumps bookmarks in RT 3.8. I can see how this
can make sense. I can also see how bookmarks trumping deletion would
make sense.

Personally, I would tend to have bookmarks trump deletion, because a
bookmark is the deliberate decision of a single user that he/she wants
to keep track of this issue whereas a deletion means that someone
decided the issue is not interesting for anyone.
Specific over generic and all that.. :p

All of those with any status, open, new, deleted, etc etc.

Then, I would like to see a count as in 'user x has n total tickets,

Medium ticket closing time or some such could also be useful.

Hi all,

something which RT has always lacked, at least imo, is a tactical user
overview page. A quick summary with details about said user and links to
preset queries (tickets owned/created/commented on/replied to by this
user, full name, whatnot) would often be a convenient thing to have.

Sending to list to get a feel for other's thoughts about this before filing a

[rt-users] Searching based on who created a ticket.

Hi all,

I was wondering if it's possible to search for all tickets created by
me. The interesting tickets would be the one created via web
interface, but the ones created via email can be displayed, as well.
Searching by Requestor is not possible as I frequently set others to be
the requestor. With 3.8, I can not bookmark the tickets, but that is not
an ideal solution.

[rt-users] Some random questions

2008-07-14 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

we just upgraded to a brand-spanking-new 3.8 and we love it (well,
technically, I do and that is just as well).

I have a few more or less random questions, though:

1) Can I make RT not auto-append my signature when commenting? It is
only useful when I reply.

2) We had RT set up to default to reply, not comment, when eesolving a
ticket. Seems that got lost in the upgrade and I don't know where to
find it.

3) Can I edit what is shown in the quick ticket creation? I only need a
few queues to quick create in with one queue receiving 99% of the
tickets. Also, I would want to be able to create tickets for everyone,
not just myself & Nobody.


Thanks a lot :)

[rt-users] Permission problem when setting Depends On for ticket you do not have access to.

2008-07-05 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

I have the following situtation:

User Alice has access to queue Foo, but not queue Bar. Alice files ticket
#1337 in queue Bar. As she is the requestor, she may see that one ticket
from Bar.
Yet, Alice will not be able to make ticket #4711, which is in Foo, depend
on #1337.

This is the current state in our RT. We would, of course, want Alice be
able to define these dependencies. This particular instance of RT is
version 3.6.3.

Is there a SOAP, XML, JASON, whatever interface in the works for 3.8?

I will actually do this on an all new virtual machine, but yes, backups
of the database are a plus :)


Thanks,

[rt-users] Does RT support MySQL's full-text search?

2008-06-10 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

I was wondering if RT supports MySQL's full text search feature [1].
As we are still using 3.4, I can not check this, myself.


Thanks for any hints/links,
Richard

[rt-users] Migraton from 3.4 to 3.8?

2008-06-10 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,

I just wanted to check that a migration from 3.4 to 3.8 is going
to be supported, i.e. that if there is a need for database conversion,
the tools are provided by upstream.


Thanks a lot, can't wait to use 3.8 :)

[rt-users] Hooking a template to an action in RT 3.4?

2008-02-27 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all,


I want to use a template I found on the wiki [1] to the actions in the
upper right of the ticket detail view (Ticket/Display.html). By
overriding Ticket/Elements/Tabs, I am able to create a new link in the
ticket view, but I am unable to figure out how to create an action which
Ticket/Update.html would accept and invoke my template.


All tips & links appreciated :)
Richard
