Progress Meter on Results from saved Reports

[memartin]

Hi there, thank you for an excellent Trac Plugin!

I have a couple of SQL reports that I would like to use for graphical reporting. What I would love to do is something like that:

[[ProgressMeter([report:9])]]

The Syntax is borrowed from TicketBoxMacro, which allows Saved Reports to be a data source, but has no graphical representation for its output.

I think the value for this would be wherever SQL queries are needed to report on tickets, e.g. when complex conditioning or grouping is too cumbersome or even impossible to express using TracQuery Language.

In a special use case I would like always to see the progress of the most recent Milestone (Scrum Sprint Backlog) on a Monitoring wiki page. I have a report that limits the results to tickets in the milestone with the most actual due date, so whenever I start a new Scrum sprint, I automatically get results only from that new milestone. With ProgressMeter at the moment I have to change the "hard" milestone reference manually in the page markup whenever I start a new Sprint/Milestone.

The plugin is deprecated. Consider upgrading to Trac 1.0 to get equivalent functionality.

While I agree that most of the functionality of this plugin can now be achieved by the TicketQuery Plugin there is one thing which is unique:

ProgressMeter plugin supports custom TicketGroupStat providers. So until TicketQuery does support them I'd suggest keeping this ticket open.

Replying to Cinc-th:

Have you opened a ticket to request the feature?

There's no activity from the plugin author since 2012, so I don't see the point in keeping the ticket open unless you plan to provide a patch yourself.

Deprecated plugins are at risk of being archived, and this ticket will then not be found. I suggest opening a ticket against the TicketQuery macro itself.
