= Project Plan Plugin = == Description == !ProjectPlan introduces time, dependency Fields and enables Project Management Features, especially for graphical visualisation, like Reports and Networks. Furthermore its a Development Base for several graphical Representations. * Current Testing Version is 0.60a (alpha) * Features * !GraphViz based MPM Network * !GraphViz based Hierarchical MPM Network * Critical Path Analysis (Simple Workloadbases) * Sorted Reports for Delayed Tickets and Slacktimes * Other small things * Known Problems * no Images for this Package (supported, but no image files) * possible unused Imports in several Modules * Other small things in code and documentation == Software Requirements == * Python 2.5 or 2.6 with Python Standard Library * a recent !GraphViz Package * Trac 0.11 (.1-5) * XML Template Engine Genshi 0.51 or better (is part of Trac 0.11) == Bugs/Feature Requests == Existing bugs and feature requests for ProjectPlanPlugin are [report:9?COMPONENT=ProjectPlanPlugin here]. If you have any issues, create a [http://trac-hacks.org/newticket?component=ProjectPlanPlugin&owner=makadev new ticket]. == Download == Download the zipped source from [download:projectplanplugin here]. == Source == You can check out ProjectPlanPlugin from [http://trac-hacks.org/svn/projectplanplugin here] using Subversion, or [source:projectplanplugin browse the source] with Trac. == Example == Add Ticket dependencies and close/assign Times. [[BR]] * Network Graphics * Use the '''!ProjectPlan''' Macro for (mpm like) Network graphics with several options enabling Project runtime estimation and (workload based) critical path analyses. * Special Reports * Use special Reports which show Delays and Slacktimes * ... Macro Samples: 1. Both Network (hierarchical and non-hierarchical) use critical path analysis. This wont work without ticket times for '''all''' tickets (either start,end, or both). 2. The critical path analysis wont work with cyclic dependencies 3. Dependencies are saved in Ticket-Custom fields. A dependency line consists of Ticket Identifiers "#". * Sample Dependencies: ''#6 and #5,#3 #4'' {{{ == hierarchical Network == [[ProjectPlan(macroid=1,renderer=gvhierarchical)]] == hierarchical Network with start and end times== [[ProjectPlan(macroid=1,renderer=gvhierarchical,betickets)]] == filtered (milestone=milestone1) == [[ProjectPlan(macroid=filtered,renderer=gvhierarchical,filter_milestone=milestone1)]] == non-hierarchical (full network) == [[ProjectPlan(renderer=gvrender,macroid=2,withbuffer)]] == Network Legends == [[ProjectPlan(macroid=legend,renderer=gvrender,statuslegend,prioritylegend,notickets)]] == Special Reports == [[ProjectPlan(macroid=report_buffer,renderer=report_buffer,limitlines=4)]] [[ProjectPlan(macroid=report_closing_delay,renderer=report_closing_delay,limitlines=10)]] [[ProjectPlan(macroid=report_assign_delay,renderer=report_assign_delay,limitlines=10)]] }}} == Recent Changes == [[ChangeLog(projectplanplugin, 3)]] == Author/Contributors == '''Author:''' [wiki:makadev] [[BR]] '''Contributors:'''
