New ProjectLocker Lite Trac Features

C. G. Brown — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 11:12:00 -0500

We've made several additions to ProjectLocker Lite Trac recently to improve your experience. Here are some of the new features:

Plugins

We've installed the following plugins:

XML-RPC (http://www.trac-hacks.org/wiki/XmlRpcPlugin)
Tags (http://www.trac-hacks.org/wiki/TagsPlugin)
Discussions (http://www.trac-hacks.org/wiki/DiscussionPlugin)

If there are other plugins that you think you and other customers may find useful, file a ticket with us and we'll install them, pending a security review and making sure they don't cause any issues. You can activate plugins that we have installed by going to the Admin menu in Trac itself.

Improved Subversion-Trac Interaction

We've installed the trac-contrib commit hook that allows you to cause action to occur on Trac tickets. If you use the right syntax, you can make commit messages leave comments on Trac tickets or even mark tickets as fixed just by doing a Subversion commit. The syntax is described in detail in the Support FAQ.

Trac Upgrade via Web

Installation of some plugins requires an upgrade of your Trac environment. After some customer feedback, we have added a link to run trac-admin upgrade from ProjectLocker Portal, so after installing the Tags or Discussions plugin, if your Trac instance indicates that it needs an upgrade, go to your Trac Service Properties for your project and click "Run trac-admin Upgrade". Your instance will upgrade itself on the spot and you can proceed with your work.

As always, we welcome your feedback on how we can make our service more useful for you.
