linked ticket-custom fields

[carlospucelano]

Hi,

　

I am a TRAC novice. I am using the [ticket-custom] section to add more entries to the New Ticket menu. Now, I want to do something more complex: I have two　entries like the ones below:

　

defect_sw_level = select
defect_sw_level.label = Defect Found in SW
defect_sw_level.options = Not a SW Defect |
　V179_Alpha　　　　　　　　　　      　 |
　V179_Charlie　　　　　　　　

　

　

defect_sub_level = select
defect_sub_level.label = Defect　explanation

defect_sub_level.options = ONE 　|
　TWO　　　　　　　　　　　    |
　THREE　　　　　　　　           |
　BLUE　　　　　　　　　　   　|
　RED　　　　　　　　　　　　 |
　WHITE

　

　

　

I want　defect_sub_level to display approved items depending on the value selected in defect_sw_level .......

　

　

For example, if I select V179_Alpha on defect_sw_level I want the menu for defect_sub_level to show something like 'ONE', 'TWO', 'THREE'.

But if I select V179_Charlie on defect_sw_level I want the menu for defect_sub_level to show something like 'BLUE', 'RED', 'WHITE'.

　

　

That way I do not have to create a gigantic menu for defect_sub_level if the options that are derived from defect_sw_level increase in time.

　

　

I have read about plugins, but I am not familiar how to add them to the database (just the python file ??) and how to tell trac-ini to pick them up.

　

　

Thanks !!

　

　

　

Carlos

DynamicFieldsPlugin [1]might do what you want. You'll want to read [2] for information on how to install plugins.
