Trac jsGantt plugin
Description
A plugin which allows Trac ticket data to be displayed in a jsGantt chart in a wiki page. Tasks and milestones are links to the corresponding ticket or milestone.
Configurable field names allow integration with other plugins such as MasterTicketsPlugin (for dependencies), SubticketsPlugin (for parent/child relationships) and TimingAndEstimationPlugin (for estimated and total hours).
Usage
[[TracJSGanttChart(sample=1)]]
displays the sample project from jsgantt.com. [[TracJSGanttChart(milestone=Test)]]
displays all the tickets in the Test milestone.
Arguments
The chart display can be controlled with a number of macro arguments:
Argument | Version | Description | Default |
caption | Caption to place to right of tasks: None, Caption , Resource , Duration , %Complete | Resource
| |
comp | Show (1 ) percent complete column, or do not (0 ). | 1
| |
colorBy | Field to use to color tasks. Useful fields are priority , owner and milestone but any field can be used. When colored by priority colors are consistent with the colors used in Trac reports. Other coloring choices (e.g., by milestone or owner ) use arbitrary, unique colors. | priority
| |
dur | Show (1 ) duration colunn, or do not (0 ). | 1
| |
dateDisplay | Format to display dates: mm/dd/yyyy , dd/mm/yyyy , or yyyy-mm-dd | mm/dd/yyyy
| |
endDate | Show (1 ) end date column, or do not (0 ). | 1
| |
expandClosedTickets | 0.9 | Show (1 ) children of closed tickets in the task hierarchy or collapse the subtree (0 ). | 1
|
format | Initial display format, one of those listed in formats | day
| |
formats | Formats to show for Gantt chart. A pipe-separated list of minute , hour , day , week , month , and quarter . | day|week|month|quarter
| |
goal | 0.9 | Ticket(s) to show predecessors of. When using something like MasterTicketsPlugin to maintain ticket dependencies, you may create a Gantt showing a ticket and all of its predecessors with goal=<ticket#> . The macro uses the configured succ field to find all predecessor tasks and build an id= argument for Trac's native query handler.Multiple goals may be provided like goal=1|12|32 .When used in a ticket description or comment, goal=self will display the current ticket's predecessors. | None |
hoursPerDay | Hours worked per day | 8.0
| |
lwidth | Width (in pixels) of left table (The one contains task names, etc. on the left of the Gantt chart.) | None | |
omitMilestones | 0.8 | Show milestones for displayed tickets (0 ) or only those specified by milestone= (1 ). | 0
|
openLevel | How many levels of task hierarchy to show open. 1 = only top level task. | 999
| |
res | Show (1 ) resource column, or do not (0 ). | 1
| |
root | Ticket(s) to show descendants of. When using something like Subtickets plugin to maintain a tree of tickets and subtickets, you may create a Gantt showing a ticket and all of its descendants with root=<ticket#> . The macro uses the configured parent field to find all descendant tasks and build an id= argument for Trac's native query handler.Multiple roots may be provided like root=1|12|32 .When used in a ticket description or comment, root=self will display the current ticket's descendants. | None | |
sample | Display (1 ) sample tasks in Gantt, or do not (0 ) | 0
| |
schedule | Schedule algorithm: as-last-as-possible (alap ) or as-soon-as-possible (asap ) | alap
| |
showdep | Show (1 ) dependencies in Gantt, or do not (0 ). | 1
| |
startDate | Show (1 ) start date column, or do not (0 ). | 1
| |
userMap | 0.8 | Map (1 ) user IDs to full names, or do not (0 ). | 1
|
Site-wide defaults for macro arguments may be set in the [trac-jsgantt]
section of trac.ini
. Where option.<opt>
overrides the built-in default for <opt>
from the table above.
All other macro arguments are treated as TracQuery specification (e.g., milestone=MS1|MS2) to control which tickets are displayed.
Installation
- Install globally with:
sudo easy_install https://trac-hacks.org/svn/tracjsganttplugin/0.11/
- Enable the plugin by updating TracIni file (..../trac.ini) as follows:
[components] tracjsgantt.* = enabled
- Configure the project management support for the plugin in its own configuration section, placed into 'trac.ini' file as follows:
[TracPM] # To work with TimingAndEstimationPlugin for percent complete, define ticket fields to use as the data source for: fields.estimate = estimatedhours fields.worked = totalhours # Each unit in estimate is 1/8 of a day days_per_estimate = 0.125 # To work with MasterTicketsPlugin for dependencies, define ticket fields to use as the data source for predecessor (pred) and successor (succ). fields.pred = blockedby fields.succ = blocking # To work with SubticketsPlugin for parent/child relationships, ## Ticket field to use as the data source for the parent fields.parent = parents # To work with ChildTickets plugin parent_format, '#%s', # Format of ticket IDs in parent field (default: %s). parent_format = %s # Custom fields for start and due dates ## Ticket field to use as the data source for start date (default: None) fields.start = userstart ## Ticket field to use as the data source for finish date (default: None) fields.finish = userfinish # Format for ''start'' and ''finish'' date strings (default: '%Y-%m-%d') date_format = %Y-%m-%d # Ticket type for milestone-like tickets (default: 'milestone') #milestone_type = milestone # Ticket field to use as the data source for the percent complete column (default: None). fields.percent = complete # Hours represented by each unit of estimated work (default: 1). hours_per_estimate = 1 # Default work for an unestimated task, same units as estimate (default: 4.0). default_estimate = 4.0 # How much work may be remaining when a task goes over estimate, same units as estimate (default: 0.0).. estimate_pad = 0.0
- See configuration details below for explanations and more options.
- Additionally, site-wide defaults for macro arguments may be set at [trac-jsgantt] section. More details about them see #Arguments section.
[trac-jsgantt] option.formats = day|week|month|quarter option.format = month ## How and which 'columns' to show option.lwidth = 300 option.res = 0 option.dur = 0 option.comp = 0 option.startDate = 0 option.endDate = 1 option.dateDisplay = yyyy-mm-dd ## How and what to show on Gantt graph option.showdep = 1 option.expandClosedTickets = 1 option.schedule = asap option.openLevel = 0 option.colorBy = priority option.userMap = 0 option.omitMilestone = 0 option.caption = Resource option.hoursPerDay = 8.0

Configuration details
TracJsGanttPlugin is intended to be flexible enough to get data from various plugins by configuring the field names for those plugins in trac.ini
. It is known to work with TimingAndEstimationPlugin (for estimated and total hours), MasterTicketsPlugin (for FS dependencies), and SubticketsPlugin for parent/child relationships. Custom fields for start and finish date are also supported.
All of the fields.*
items name custom fields which may contain data for the Gantt.
- When
fields.estimate
andfields.worked
are both configured, the plugin attempts to display (100 *fields.worked
/fields.estimate
) as the percent complete. The example works with TimingAndEstimationPlugin. Alternatively, ifpercent
is configured, the plugin attempts to display it as the percent complete (it should be a number from 0 to 100). If none of those are configured, all tasks will be marked as 0% complete.
- When
fields.pred
andfields.succ
are configured the plugin uses them to determine the task dependencies. The example works with MasterTicketsPlugin. If these fields are not configured, no dependencies are shown.
- When
fields.parent
is configured, it is the field which holds the parent ticket number. The example works with SubticketsPlugin. If this field is not configured, no parent/child relationship will be displayed. If it is configured, the Gantt can be collapsed by the user to show or hide subtasks. (parent_format
determines the format of the content of theparent
field. Use "%s" (default) for SubticketsPlugin, or "#%s" for ChildTicketsPlugin.)
- When
fields.start
andfields.finish
are configured, the plugin uses them to set task start and finish dates. Thedate_format
field is a Pythonstrptime()
format specifier which describes the contents offields.start
andfields.finish
. If these fields are not configured, all tasks end today and have a 1-day duration.
- When
fields.estimate
andfields.finish
are both configured (andfields.start
is not configured or not on the ticket), the plugin attempts to determine the start of the task fromfields.finish
andfields.estimate
asstart = fields.finish - fields.estimate
with consideration for weekends and hours per day.
- The
milestone_type
may be used to have a custom ticket type show up as milestones on the chart. If this field is not specified, only Trac milestones are displayed as milestones.
