When I am at the global projects page at index.php?do=admin&area=editallusers and now select a project from the dropdown menu at the top right, I get an error

FEHLER #17: Ungültiger Projektmanager-Bereich!

(according to the the translation area this is key 813: error17 Invalid PM area.)

If I select the project again, the projects start page will be shown correctly.

Hi, i made a way to integrate slack in flyspray using webhooks.. i not added to git.. if some can add for me it’s ok.

The process is simple.. maybe in the front the team can add a field for add the webhook for each action could be better.. in this moment the webhook is triggered only for newtask using the log method.. but you can simply add some “if” for each “type” of log.

Process:

1. Create a new field in the table flyspray_users named “slack”, and add the user slack for each user.
2. Edit the file /includes/class.flyspray.php , go to the function “logEvent” and change it by this:

public static function logEvent($task_id, $type, $newvalue = '', $oldvalue = '', $field = '', $time = null)
			{
				global $db, $user;
 
				// This function creates entries in the history table.  These are the event types:
				//  0: Fields changed in a task
				//  1: New task created
				//  2: Task closed
				//  3: Task edited (for backwards compatibility with events prior to the history system)
				//  4: Comment added
				//  5: Comment edited
				//  6: Comment deleted
				//  7: Attachment added
				//  8: Attachment deleted
				//  9: User added to notification list
				// 10: User removed from notification list
				// 11: Related task added to this task
				// 12: Related task removed from this task
				// 13: Task re-opened
				// 14: Task assigned to user / re-assigned to different user / Unassigned
				// 15: This task was added to another task's related list
				// 16: This task was removed from another task's related list
				// 17: Reminder added
				// 18: Reminder deleted
				// 19: User took ownership
				// 20: Closure request made
				// 21: Re-opening request made
				// 22: Adding a new dependency
				// 23: This task added as a dependency of another task
				// 24: Removing a dependency
				// 25: This task removed from another task's dependency list
				// 26: Task was made private
				// 27: Task was made public
				// 28: PM request denied
				// 29: User added to the list of assignees
				// 30: New user registration
				// 31: User deletion
				// 32: Add new subtask
				// 33: Remove Subtask
				// 34: Add new parent
				// 35: Remove parent
 
				$query_params = array(intval($task_id), intval($user->id),
				((!is_numeric($time)) ? time() : $time),
				$type, $field, $oldvalue, $newvalue);
 
                               // CREATE A NOTIFICATION IN SLACK WHEN A NEW TASK IS CREATED ONLY TO THE USER SELECTED
				if ($type == 14) {
 
					$usuarios = $db->query("SELECT DISTINCT a.slack, c.item_summary, d.project_title
						FROM {users} a
						JOIN {assigned} b on b.user_id = a.user_id
						JOIN {tasks} c on c.task_id = b.task_id
						JOIN {projects} d on d.project_id = c.project_id
						WHERE b.task_id = ?
						and a.slack <> '-'", array(intval($task_id)));
						$slackUsers = $db->fetchAllArray($usuarios);
 
						foreach ($slackUsers as $users) {
							    // GET THE USERS FOR IN THE SLACK TO SEND THE NOTIFICATION.
							$data = array(
								'text' => "New task: Project: " . $users['project_title'] . " | summary: " . $users['item_summary'] . " | taskId:" . $task_id ,
								'username' => "bott inslack",
								'link_names' => "1",
								'channel' =>  "@" . $users['slack'],
								'icon_emoji' => ":panda_face:"
							);
 
							$options = array(
								'http' => array(
									'header'  => 'Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n',
									'method'  => 'POST',
									'content' => json_encode($data)
								)
							);
 
                                                      // DEFINE SLACK WEBHOOK
							$context  = stream_context_create($options);
							$result = file_get_contents("https://hooks.slack.com/services/xxxxxxxxx", false, $context);
 
						}
 
					}												
 
					if($db->query('INSERT INTO {history} (task_id, user_id, event_date, event_type, field_changed,
						old_value, new_value) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)', $query_params)) {
 
							return true;
						}
 
						return false;
					}

I’m currently using flyspray 0.9.9.7

I want to make a little integration of our flyspray installation into slack.
I want make a POST request when a “new task is created”

Any experiment guy can help here ?
1. Where is the best place to achieve this quickly as “hack hardcode” 2. Im not php developer, is there any php lib in flyspray todo quick POST request without installing any additional lib.

Is there any possible implementation in the future of a way to send new tasks and edited tasks in to discord or some messaging software like bots do, for example github bot will post new issues to a channel in discord so users can see and check up on things, especially for big projects which use these types of things and need a way to notify users of updates

Bugs

Missing features

With the existence of now two peoples named “Peter” on bugs.flyspray.org (I - peterdd , and PeterTheOne)
there are several places where the full names are display instead of usernames and the user can’t know who is which “Peter” until he visits the users profile page.

Different solutions possible:

• more profile image/gravatar usage where user names are shown, on mouseover link title attribute shows username and realname
• display user name (username) instead of full name (realname)
• display full name and username (where much space available and precision needed)
• …

When adding the mention feature, the username will be probably the prefered setting as the username is unique but the realname not.

A very useful feature would be to be able to manage a list of custom fields by project, and to be able to add and fill any of these fields to any task.
So we could be able to search on the presence and content of a field.
We could be able to sort the tasks by this field when they are displayed in a list.

A use example is when you create a bug by reference to another external list. It can be very useful to have a field that references a line in the external list.

Sometimes comes this message with a lot of backtrace log.
If you are reporting a bug please provide as much information as possible to help understand and reproduce the problem:

Did you installed an official release or did you used an inoffical docker?!

Hello,

When registering and when later editing users settings it’s possible to specify “Time zone” but the way it’s implemented is confusing. What I see is a drop-down list with GMT[+-]:digit: and this is an odd way to set the timezone for multiple reasons:

1. “GMT” is a word without universally accepted and defined meaning these days, see https://www.ucolick.org/~sla/leapsecs/timescales.html#GMT ;

2. Often time zone specification needs to include the rules when (if ever) to apply DST and what abbreviation is to be used in different cases. See TZ description on https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap08.html#tag_08_03 .

Taking these two points into account I can’t see how to meaningfully use this feature.

TIA for looking into it.

display_errors = 1 should not set in include/fix.inc.php for releases or releases candidate, because with this it is not possibele to disable the error reporting globaly.

The problem is, if I want to enable full error reporting to logfile via “error_log=…” in php.ini, then the error will also full reported to user. Full error reporting is a hig risk for security.

Did you installed an official release or did you used an inoffical docker?!
flyspray-1.0-rc9

Steps done to create the problem:
Create a file php.in in base directory with follow contens:
error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT
log_errors = On
display_errors = Off
error_log = /var/log/php-flyspray-errors.log

Expected behavior:
Errors only to log file

Experienced behavior:
All errors goes also to user.
The option “display_errors = Off” has no effect.

Hello, sorry my english - i’m translated Flyspray ver 0.9.9.7 to czech language - its attached

Petr

I played with adding a dark mode color theme to the default CleanFS theme.

To make the dark theme just simple exchange some colors, the bitmap icons should be replaced with alternatives.

Easiest would be using the fontawesome font icons as Flyspray still uses them and they can simply get a css color assigned.

Examples

Navigation and Forms

Editors

I have installed flyspray on an internal server and have problems with the renaming of internal links.

For example:
I want to put this link in the comment section.
\\192.168.200.5\Folder\example.docx

it shows the link correct,
but when you hover over the link it shows:
file://192.168.200.5/Folder/example.docx

And on clicking on it, of course I can´t access the file, because it´s trying to open an external link.
I dont want it to be renamed from ‘\’ to ‘/’.

Can somebody help me please.

I tryed to find it in the sourcecodes, but I have almost no experience in PHP.

Thank you!

Hello together,

it would be nice, if you could mention user in your ticket or comment which are not following the task.
for example when i will type @nickname, the user “nickname” should be get a e-mail that he is mentioned in the ticket.

(if we are “fancy” then we can print a automcomplete after the @-sign ist typed)

When a user is deleted from Flyspray, their opened tasks, closed task and task comments are then shown as Anonymous Submitter, the same way as anonymous reporters (not really anonymous, just that user does not have login account, but usually their email address is stored within that task data).

Currently just the entry from users table are deleted when a user is deleted. Their internal user_id integer is still within tasks and comments fields, and maybe some other tables too. So there is not a ON DELETE SET NULL rule or something like that applied. As it is just an autoincremented number by the system, this is not personal data imho and should be no problem for GDPR, but gives Flyspray the ability to distinguish between anon reporters and deleted users. Well, we could also look if there is an email address within task table entry for notification of anonymous reporter, but there are also tasks possible that have no user_id nor an email address.

It might by useful to present that information differently like deleted user or showing the info differently like icon + title-tooltip with explanation.

Also interesting what happens with mentions of a deleted username in a comment or task description. (see FS#2322)

The user isn’t in database, but deleting that now gone user should not modify tasks or comment where that username was mentioned I think.
But what if another user registers under that now gone username? In that case that new user would inherit that mentions. Probably we can ignore that edge case as there will be not much things will happen with an old mention in old tasks/comments.

When adding peoples with the autocompleter the name itself is not always enough, especially with a growing number of registered users.

We now have the avatar icon as helper, but for quick verification it would be easier to see also the role of the user in the current project to identify the right user account.

( The red rectangle at peterdd autocomplete row is from a broken avatar upload, ignore it for this task, see  FS#1979  instead .. )

Motivation

Proposal

no task description

Please support Central Authentication Service, thank you.

It would be helpful to have communication with LDAP via TLS

I have done a very quick bit of work to bring ldap (through active directory) authentication to flyspray for our implementation in the office. I hope it will be of use to others. There is a readme.txt inside talking through the process and the patch to apply. My plan is to expand on this and make it part of the setup process but this will take a bit longer.

Hi

Please advise if there are known issues when integrating Flyspray with Active Directory using LDAP.

In the page http://www.flyspray.org/manual/group_permissions/ , it is written

Shown is an image of the permissions page for the Flyspray project’s Contributors group

but there is no image in there.

I can think of two ways of dealing with that I guess:

1. add an image
2. remove the sentence

What do you think?

I gave a role the following privileges:

• view own tasks

• modify own tasks

• view comments

• add comments

A user with the assigned role can still modify the task descriptions and task details. (I want that user to only be able to add comments.)
I think there is a bug.
Is there a fix or walk around?
Thx
