Harvest Plugin
Added by Jim Mulholland 10 months ago
I created a plugin to integrate Harvest time entry data into Redmine.

In short, the plugin allows you to pull in time entry data from Harvest, tie the entries to individual Redmine tickets, and general time reporting.
I was originally going to extend the existing TimeEntry model to take advantage of all the existing reports, but later decided I would play it safe and created a new HarvestTime model and HarvestReport view and controller. The Harvest reports page and time aggregation on the Issue detail page works exactly the same, though.
Feedback from our clients has been very positive so far which is definitely a good thing!

Tried installing the plugin but get the following error:
no such file to load -- harvestr
I assume the plugin needs harvestr (http://github.com/squeejee/harvestr) but I'm not sure how to install that so that Redmine sees it. Any help you could provide would be appreciated.

I followed these steps to get remine_harvest working with my redmine installation:
1. cloned redmine_harvest into vendor/plugins directory using
git clone git://github.com/mully/redmine_harvest.git
2. installed the harvestr gem with
sudo gem install harvestr
3. created a harvest.yaml file in the redmine config folder, with this in:
domain: [your harvest domain] email: [a valid harvest email] password: [password for that user]
4. did the plugin database migration (yes I know it says not to on the github page for redmine_harvest, but I think you do need it...)
rake db:migrate_plugins RAILS_ENV=production
5. follow the steps for the redmine admin settings that are in the redmine_harvest readme: http://github.com/mully/redmine_harvest/blob/master/README.rdoc
That was it! Plugin looks great so far - hope that helps someone get it installed.
cheers
