Redmine

+1. This would be useful for some filters I have tried to make as well.

+1 I would love it if Redmine had this functionality. Perhaps the easiest/most powerful way to implement this would be to make a way for users to create filters out of combinations of other filters. In other words, if I could define filters A, B, and C, and then say something like "Give me all the issues that are in A OR B, but not in C", I could get any issue list I could ever want. And that would be awesome.

Any progress on this subject guys? ;o)

Thats nearly what I ment with #7641, but I'd like to combine AND and OR freely.

e.g. A AND B OR C AND D

should list all issues which fullfill both, A and B

plus the issue which fillfill both, C and D

Basically it should be read like disjunctive normal form

also this could be interesting when one wants to list all issues
assigned to me, and also all which aren't assigned yet.

for this feature a filtercriteria must be usable more than one time

or other solution: the list of possible assignees contains a special element "Not assigned" at the top of the list, so one can select (by multiple selection) me and "Not assigned"

It looks like it is implemented in "Trac": http://trac.edgewall.org/query, see the "OR" at the bottom right of the filters box

I like it

Yes this would be a good improvement. It won't be easy but a really cool addition to the current filter-system.

any workaround here? we need a filter like "is autor or observer"

+1

Need Assignee or Watcher.

Thanks for your patch! i look forward to implement that in our redmine!!

so important feature and no progress for 5 years :(

so important feature and no progress for 5 years :(

We only have 2 programmers working in their spare time, plus contributions from a few other volunteers.

If you send patches that apply cleanly against current trunk (together with tests) we'd happily test and apply those.

I have made this patch into a plugins here (with some improvement). It works with redmine 2.6.x and 3.1.1 or less. Please use the plugin instead of this patch

What is the difference between zquery and _query?

Did someone tested one with Redmine 2.4?

Dear Fred
1. They are the same but I renamed zquery to _query so it is loaded first. _query is now the "official" version :-) (I have replace zquery attachment with _query but the name is still in the link)
2. I think it should work with 2.3 upward since I developed it based on 2.3 version

So is there any chance that the _query plugin getting updated to function with Redmine 3.4? I tried to figure out how to update it, but it's not clear to me what needs to be changed to make it compatible.

It gives me the following error in 3.4 as is:

Dear Shaun
I am sorry. This version of plugin is too old. I create a separate entry for this plugin and put the update here and it works with redmine 3.4

Excellent! Thank you!

It could be great to allow filters with multiple conditions by same field (e.g. status is "open" AND status is not feedback) also.

+1 :}

Would it be possible to select the same field twice, so I can query "Due in the next 14 days or due date none" ?
Seems like the field is greyed out once it is selected.

Hi, I have developed this feature in my company, I will try to bring it as a plugin.

is there an plugin version for 4.0? On the plugin site itself it tells me an 404?

Both https://www.redmine.org/plugins/boolean_query
and https://www.redmine.org/plugins/_query deliver 404

As far as I know there is no version for 4.0 available. But you could keep an eye on mbideau/redmine_zquery. There even is an issue for redmine 4.xx support.

But mbideau/redmine_zquery is an older version and does not suppport Redmine 3.4 as _query version 0.0.3 posted in #42 by Quan VN.

Thanks for Your work.

Unfortunately the two methods match and not match introduce the logical operators inside the string fields. For example, if I want to search for a more then a string in a field in OR:

Description match string1 ~ string2 ~ string3 ~ string4

I obtain as result all issues that contain at least one of the four strings in field Description

I've read the readme and now understand what the operators match and not match do.
They have nothing to do with the or filters but are useful extensions for the queries. But I still don't know how to implement the new operators in the _query plugin. Sorry.

Fantastic job!!
Thanks You

Is anybody in contact with Jean-Philippe Lang so this has a change to get merged?

The filter options need to be much more poerfull...

Hi,

Can you put some screen captures to be able to see how it works and how it changes the native behavior ?

Thanks Emanuel

I second that, JPL (or someone with equivalent competency) should review and merge.
This is extremely useful!

Thanks for useful patch.

I hope a lot of people have confirmed that this feature works and get it incorporated into RedmineCore as soon as possible.

However, the latest trunk rev19405 could not apply this patch.
To make it easier to try, I created a branch on my repository and patched it.

https://github.com/y503unavailable/redmine/tree/feature-patch4939

https://github.com/redmine/redmine/compare/master...y503unavailable:feature-patch4939.patch

In this code, I checked the operation of the or-filter function.

I added a Japanese term file patch.
But,created Tentatively.

The following branch publishes the 4.2-stable with this issue and the patch of issue 5358 applied.
I update every month for the latest trunk.

But still pity for each filter can only be used once.

Any chance to create/point to an updated version of the plugin ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi , thanks for the info.

If i understand you correctly , the patch is "fixing" redmine to work with old redmine version of the plugin ?

While this might be usable for others , for me at least , I cant use patches on redmine itself and need to wait for an updated plugin version.

The patch inserts the functionality of the older plugin right into Redmine, no plugin needed at all afterwards.

I’m afraid I can’t help on this one. But maybe someone else can chime in and help.
