Source

You can check out TicketConditionalCreationStatusPlugin from here using Subversion, or browse the source​ with Trac.

Installation

General instructions on installing Trac plugins can be found on the TracPlugins page.

Activate the component in your trac.ini file like this:

[components]
ticketconditionalcreationstatus.* = enabled

Configuration is then written in a separate section, headed [ticketconditionalcreationstatus]. There is one fixed configuration variable, criteria, taking as value a list of ticket field names that you want to use as conditions.

For any of the criteria you can then write variables <fieldname>.owned or <fieldname>.unowned:

• in the simplest form, such a variable takes the form <fieldcontent> -> <ticketstatus>
• you can also give several such rules, like <content1> -> <status1>, <content2> -> <status2>
• when you have several content values that should map to the same status, you can use <content1>|<content2> -> <status>

Example

The following example will make owned tickets of types task and task-dev start out as assigned, instead of new, and tickets of type plan start out as new_plan:

[ticketconditionalcreationstatus]
criteria = type
type.owned = task|task-dev -> assigned, plan -> new_plan
