Sums specified field in Roadmap and Milestone stats

Notice: This plugin is unmaintained and available for adoption.

Description

This is a complement to the Sum Fields plugin which sums fields in a query or report. This plugin sums fields for the roadmap and milestone views. These plugins are useful when assessing progress based on "points" or "ideal days" of effort instead of ticket count.

This plugin was inspired by the CustomRoadmapPlugin but overcomes its limitation of requiring a patch. Additionally, this plugin allows for any field to be used to define a group, not just the default status field. Lastly, I designed the plugin to be backwards compatible with the default ticket count behavior so that you can leverage as much or little of its enhancements as desired.

Configuration

  1. Install the plugin (after downloading and unzipping):
    cd sumstatsplugin/0.12
    sudo python setup.py install
    

See TracPlugins for more installation details and options. You'll likely need to restart Trac's web server after installation.

  1. Enable the plugin in trac.ini:
    [components]
    sumstats.* = enabled
    

You can alternatively use the Trac Web Admin GUI.

  1. Replace the DefaultTicketGroupStatsProvider with this plugin's new SumTicketGroupStatsProvider as shown here:
    [roadmap]
    stats_provider = SumTicketGroupStatsProvider
    
    [milestone]
    stats_provider = SumTicketGroupStatsProvider
    
  1. (Optional) Configure the main sumstats section:
    [sumstats]
    field = effort
    label = effort
    drilldown_label = Ticket effort
    filter = type!=epic
    query_args = col=summary,col=type,col=effort
    

The optional field option specifies which field to sum. The optional drilldown_label and label options are used to define the TicketGroupStats object. The optional filter is an additional global filter for all groups (if specified it must be a standard field only). The optional query_args is a convenient, comma-delimited list that gets appended to each group's query_args. See the examples below for more details.

Example

Here's an example trac.ini config that combines a custom phase field with a built-in resolution field:

[milestone-groups]
closed = fixed
closed.field = resolution
closed.label = fixed
closed.order = 1
closed.overall_completion = true

readying = *
readying.field = phase
readying.order = 2
readying.color = YellowGreen

implementation = implementation
implementation.field = phase
implementation.order = 3
implementation.color = Yellow

waiting = waiting
waiting.field = phase
waiting.order = 4
waiting.color = White

scoping = sizing,definition
scoping.field = phase
scoping.order = 5
scoping.color = Red

In general, the plugin maintains the same syntax and semantics as the DefaultTicketGroupStatsProvider to support backwards compatibility and ease of transition. If the .field option is omitted, then the status field is presumed. Note that a .color option is required for each group (except for any default closed or new group you have). The "catch all" * value is also still supported (although there are currently no checks for duplicate "catch all" or otherwise redundant group definitions).
