    3232You can check out TicketChartsMacro from [http://trac-hacks.org/svn/ticketchartsmacro here] using Subversion, or [source:ticketchartsmacro browse the source] with Trac.
    3333
    34 == Requirements ==
    35   * '''Python 2.5''' or above. For '''Python 2.4''', see the instructions in #5225.
    36   * [http://teethgrinder.co.uk/open-flash-chart-2/ Open Flash Charts] installed on your server
    37     * [http://www.ofc2dz.com/ OFCDZ] has more experimental features which get merged back to the main OFC project once in a while. For example clickable charts come from here.
    38     * "Installing" in this case means:
    39       * making accessible to web clients OFC's js and js/json as well as the top-level Flash file (open-flash-chart.swf or OFCDZ.swf)
    40       * Deploying python-ofc-library-2/openFlashChart*.py somewhere Python will find them
    41   * Advanced Argument Parser for Trac Macros (AdvParseArgsPlugin).
    42   * Tested only on Trac 0.11.3.
    43   * Tested only on Apache configuration, but with proper configuration (see configuration section) this should work with any http server (including tracd).
    44 
    4534== Installation ==
    4635  * Download the source.
    4736  * Copy the file !TicketCharts.py to your project's plugins directory or to the global plugins directory, which is usually in:
    48 {{{
     37  {{{
    4938#!sh
    5039/usr/share/trac/plugins
     
    5241  * Enable !TicketCharts plugin via the WebAdmin interface or by adding the following lines to the [components] section of trac.ini:
    5342  {{{
    54   #!ini
    55   ticketcharts.* = enabled
    56   }}}
    57   * Install Open Flash Charts 2 '''and its version 2 python bindings''' (everything can be downloaded from [http://teethgrinder.co.uk/open-flash-chart-2/ Open Flash Charts]).
    58 
    59 Note: These installation steps need to be updated and enhanced. See [/ticket/6061#comment:13 comment:13:ticket:6061] for more hints if you are having trouble.
     43#!ini
     44ticketcharts.* = enabled
     45}}}
    6046
    6147== Configuration ==
    62   * The following configuration should appear in trac.ini:
     48 * The following configuration can appear in trac.ini (default values are shown):
    6349{{{
    6450#!ini
     
    6652height = 300
    6753width = 500
    68 js_dir = /js
    69 json_dir = /js/json
    70 ofc_file = /OFCDZ.swf
    7154}}}
    72   * If this does not appear, default values will be used.
    73   * ''js_dir'', ''jsor_dir'' and ''ofc_file'' are the location '''on the http server''' of the Open Flash Charts files.
    74   * As you can see, the default '''ofc_file''' value is OFCDZ.swf, which is another implementation of Open Flash Charts, that make the bar charts clickable. You can download it from [http://www.ofc2dz.com/ OFCDZ].
    75 
    76 == Some notes on installation ==
    77 - I tried all kinds of configurations to get the charts to appear (ver 11.5) - followed the information on this [http://trac-hacks.org/ticket/5542 ticket]
    78 - Answer for me was to copy all the OFC2 files to my Apache web server http://mywebserver/trac/reports/
    79 - Then I changed the paths to:
    80 
    81 {{{
    82 #!ini
    83 js_dir = http://mywebserver/trac/reports/js
    84 json_dir = http://mywebserver/trac/reports/js/json
    85 ofc_file = http://mywebserver/trac/reports/OFCDZ.swf
    86 }}}
    87 
    88 and it worked.

    9258Although I believe the examples show it all, I'll write here the arguments:

    97       * '''query''' - A Trac Query. All the stats will be taken from this query. It is important that everything in the query's parmeters will be under quotes. Examples:
