Trac Ticket to Salesforce ticket synchronization

Description

Maintain synchronization if Trac tickets in Salesforce. Trac tickets are reflected by the Salesforce custom objects, Ticket and Comment. Ticket objects are linked to Cases via M2M relationship provided by the CaseTicketLink custom object. Even though this is a M2M relation, Trac's uses a custom text field for the Case number, so it's essentially many-to-one.

Comment objects are related to Ticket objects via the link custom object, TicketCommentLink. The related lists layouts are modified to display the related object fields rather then the object id.

You need the "tracrpc" component installed and enabled for this plugin to work. You also need to add a custom field, "case_number", as shown below.

This file gets copied to the "plugins" directory of the trac project.

Example settings in trac.ini are:

[components]
tracrpc.* = enabled
ticket2sforce.* = enabled
ticketvalidator.* = enabled

[ticket2sforce]
username = yourSFusername
password = yourSFpasswd
sectoken = yourSFsecurityToken
wsdl = partner.wsdl

[ticket-custom]
case_number = text
case_number.label = Case Number

[ticketvalidator]
new.required = case_number

You will need to install the following Salesforce project artifacts using either the Eclipse SForce plugin or the ant-based migration tool.

src/layouts/Case-Case Layout.layout
src/layouts/Comment__c-Comment Layout.layout
src/layouts/Ticket__c-Ticket Layout.layout
src/layouts/TicketCommentLink__c-TicketCommentLink Leyout.layout
src/objects/Ticket__c.object
src/objects/Comment__c.object
src/objects/CaseTicketLink__c.object
src/objects/TicketCommentLink__c.object

Refactored code to consolidate two classes, Ticket2Case and CaseNumberValidator
into a single class, Ticket2SForce. This obviates the need for "caseId" global
and connection static method to share connection between two classs.
