Validate ticket fields

Notice: This plugin is unmaintained and available for adoption.

Description

This plugin allows you to perform validations on form input fields in your Trac pages.

Key features:

• require the email address of an anonymous contributor and validate this email address
• support required fields
• match values in fields using regular expression

As an example, the following additions could be made to your trac.ini file:

1. Validate anonymous author email address and make the comment a required input:

   [components]
   tracticketvalidator.* = enabled
   
   [ticketvalidator]
   validate_author = true
   validate_author.tip = Please enter your email address
   validates = comment, summary
   comment.rule = .+
   comment.tip = Please input comment
   summary.rule = [A-Z].*
   summary.tip = Please correct summary
   

Note: when validating more than one field, use a list after validates =.

2. There is a very straightforward implementation of parent/child tickets: just prepend the parent ticket number to the child ticket summary. For example, if the parent ticket 234 summary is <#0>A parent ticket, then the child ticket summary will be <#234>A child ticket. We can perform a validation using regular expressions as follows:

   [components]
   tracticketvalidator.* = enabled
   
   [ticketvalidator]
   validates = summary
   summary.rule = ^<#\d*>.*
   summary.tip = Please correct summary format
