Redmine

Hi Dan,

Redmine can't fill your need out of the box. Is it difficult to make it meet your requirement? From my POV, it should, but I have no idea of your developper skills. I recommand you to add the four needed fields in the issue model and alter the controller to auto-compute the pain-field. Remaining work is the UI.

I'm trying to evaluate Redmine to see if it will fit my department's needs. One thing that I would like to accomplish is to set a value of Custom field based on the values of other fields. Please see Improving Bug Triage with User Pain as to what I'd like to accomplish. Is this type of functionality possible w/ Redmine? If I wanted to hack something up would it be difficult to implement?

Thanks in advance for any input you can provide.

You could create a plugin to provide this feature. I believe the latest trunk has all the hooks needed for this functionality. You should also be able to add a new filter to the issues list (e.g. Open issues where pain > 50). If you want some sample code, my budget plugin adds fields to issues, the UI, and adds a custom filter.

If you need some more direction, we can discuss a basic design in this thread.

I know it's a really old thread but here it is, a rough implementation : http://www.redmine.org/boards/3/topics/18529
