Extension:IssueTracker

The IssueTracker extension is a simple and powerful bug tracking and issue tracking system developed to make this process easier for your team. It introduces the tag to the MediaWiki markup, which can be used to produce an issue and bug tracking system.

Usage
The IssueTracker extension provides a custom tag,, that allows the inclusion of an issue tracker in any wiki page. It's possible to customize almost every aspect of the extension, such as permissions, user groups, colours, titles, and templates. It supports searching and several types of filtering.

To embed an issue tracker into a page, use the tag:

If a project name is not provided, the extension will use the page namespace as the default project name. You can create multiple issue trackers by providing different project names, for example:



To hide the filter and search forms you can set the search and filter options to false:



By default, users must be logged in to add, edit or achieve issues. If you want to allow anonymous issue management, set the authenticate option to false:



Options

 * project = String : The project name (default: page namespace).
 * authenticate = Boolean : User authentication (default: true).
 * search = Boolean : Display search form (default: true).
 * filter = Boolean : Display filter form (default: true).

Archive File
Available formats: zip | tar.gz

Subversion Repository
Use SVN to checkout a copy of the source code. I highly recommend you to get the trunk version of the extension until a stable version is released. I do what I can to ensure that SVN versions are build-able and run-able, but clearly beta versions in SVN should not be considered stable.

Check out the current development trunk with:

$ svn checkout http://svn.phpimpact.com/repo/zend/trunk/library/Mediawiki/IssueTracker/

NOTE: In order to use Subversion, you will first have to install a Subversion client. Free graphical client software, which may make Subversion easier to use, is available for most systems:


 * Windows: TortoiseSVN makes all SVN commands available directly from the Windows Explorer.
 * Mac OS X: SCPlugin and svnX.
 * Linux and UNIX systems: RapidSVN, eSvn, QSvn, and probably others.

The IssueTracker extension requires MediaWiki 1.9.0 or greater.
