Null/Untagged Content

[jabrault@…]

We have the Tags plugin implemented with our Trac instance and have implemented a tag-based documentation page. Several people are creating new wiki articles daily, and some are forgetting to add tags. To be able to more easily track these pages down, I was wondering if there is any syntax for pulling out wiki pages that are not tagged (i.e. NULL). I have heard that there is no feature to be able to accomplish this. A syntax that I tested to see if this feature existed is below:

[[ListTagged(realm:wiki `NULL`)]]

I picture this similar to the searching of tickets from the "view tickets" tab. For example, owner = username AND keywords = fieldleftblank. to be able to find were that particular user didn't add keywords.

Thanks for your request. As discussed before ListTagged cannot list un-tagged resources, and any other part of current TagsPlugin is similar. It works with tagged content, and leaves the rest alone.

Before developing new functionality inside the plugin I ask you, if custom TracReports dedicated to "untagged content" would do it too?

It looks like we are utilizing TracReports for active and closed tickets per user. That seems like it could be a valid way of reporting on untagged wiki pages. Do you have any example syntax for what that might look like?

Just created and tested this one:

Untagged wiki pages by name

SELECT DISTINCT name FROM wiki
WHERE name NOT IN (
    SELECT DISTINCT name FROM tags
    WHERE tagspace='wiki'
)
ORDER BY name

While I share the thought that the functionality may not be needed for TagsPlugin, you can imagine how easy it would be to write a custom macro for the reporter's Trac installation that utilizes the comment:3 SQL.

Sure, but making a plugin is yet on a different level, if he's not even going the TracReports way.
