Flyspray

From the Mailing List:

Hello,

I’v found the following bug in rc10:

flyspray-1.0-rc10

/includes/class.effort.php

Line 261:

$minutes = floor(($seconds - ($hours * 3600)) / 60);

should be:

$minutes = floor(($seconds - ($days * $factor) - ($hours * 3600)) / 60);

Can you add the patch in the next version?

Best regards,
Mario Stiffel

For users with administrative permissions, a moderation UI for spam tasks could be useful.

For other normal users a “mark as spam”-button (similiar to voting for a task) could help moderators to identify spam tasks.

1. Modify the spam task: Move to a hidden “Trash” project, replace summary and description with a default spam summary text end empty description.
2. The decision which kind of punishment of the account who created the spam depends on several things:
   • Is it a previously normal used account who got captured by a bad guy and suddenly started spamming?
   • Is it a fresh bot created account who tried creating many spam task to promote bad websites or do search ranking manipulation?
   • Is it a sneaky smart account who waits for the opportunity to offload spam in a subtile manner?

I think this is not so easy to automate without producing false positives, especially for a project without commercial interest and funding and no huge meta informations like Google or similiar data collecting corporation who have the ability to identify spam waves across the internet.

Today I received a Spam into my Flyspray, I wanted to ban the user and to delete the task, to my surprise I didn’t see an option to -delete- a created task, so I don’t want to keep this spammy content into my DB or even worse, publically viewable to other users / or google (which will impact in seo and also make their spamming successful forever), I just wanted to simply remove the task entirely from the DB

So my only option was to restore the 2-days before database backup in order to remove it, then I upgraded to the last git checkout but I didn’t see that option existing

I think flyspray needs to have that option included

Thank you

Tags can only be added on the “new task” page, not managed on the “edit task”-page. done

• The information when a tag is added or removed and by whom logged through flyspray_history table is still TODO.
• The information when a tag is added by whom is visible when hovering over it in the task details view
• Tags are now also searched by the submitted search string when doing a task search.
• In addition to the project level ‘free tagging’ which allows users create new tag names there exists also a use_tags permission per project. This is currently only used on some of the appropriate locations.

The last build is very old, it is possible to create a new build?
- The last RC: 2 years soon
- The last stable: 9 years soon

Flyspray 1.0-rc9

@peterdd peterdd released this Apr 22, 2019

Stable: http://www.flyspray.org/docs/download/

Flyspray 0.9.9.7 - 28 May 2012

Integrate the selectpure javascript to the new task and edit task form.

By default there is a text field where tag names are separated by ‘;’ character.

Selectpure could instead show the tags with their visual layout with a little ‘x’ inside on the right side for removing a tag and autocomplete when typing a tag name to show existing tags from the flyspray_list_tag-table as possible selections.

Instead implemented a CSS and raw javascript solution with a single taghelper.js without any dependancies.

A button beside the tag input text field toggles a list of available tags for the current task, depending on the project and settings.

Still TODO

Convert all the JS to using one library. Seems there is scattered JS scripts all over and we need to pick one solution that could be long term and has plenty of features for improving FS.

I vote for JQuery w/ Bootstrap which has some nice JS effects using JQuery.

@peterdd wrote on 2021-04-02:

Yes, move inline javascript out of templates, but no need for single wholeinone js file, it’s ok to load only the js files required for current page. Probably in 2021 there is no need for js framework anymore and standard javascript is just fine for the functionality Flyspray requires.

Please show install page as local language, Thank you.

On the Flyspray homepage, no informations about https://github.com/flyspray/flyspray…

A lot of people think that the project is dead.

In the same time, can you change the https://github.com/Flyspray to https://github.com/flyspray ?

No lost, you can try it already works but it is not the default.

https://github.com/organizations/Flyspray/settings/profile → “Rename organization” and replace Flyspray → flyspray.

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.

currently absolute positioning overlapping deny button and not full visible

Possible better solution:

• cssbased toggle

• left:50%; width:300px;margin-left:-150px;margin-top:50px;

make a option in configuration file

me need set same $db1→set_charset(’utf8mb4’); for my MySQLi

have a problem with national letters

I see this error after i try enter national letters to the summary input text field for create new task

When viewing a project via the tasklist, there are a series of checkboxes available. If a user in a group with “modify own tasks” checks a box on a ticket - no matter who actually owns it - they are given a list of options to change it with.

This should not happen. The checkboxes should only be available from the tasklist if the user can actually edit the tickets they’d be next to.

Should have a page that is a users profile page. so clicking in that users name on a ticket takes you there and you can see what bugs are assigned to them, what they have commented on, and other info about them and about their activity.

With all informations on flyspray, it’s possible to generate a gantt chart.
For this, some php code exists :
- http://www.aditus.nu/jpgraph/
- http://www.graphviz.org/
- http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/2737.html

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

It would be nice to have a description field to put a brief note about the work done for a given effort item. This would help when using effort tracking for the purpose of making invoices to a client.

Correct or wrong code return false!

Edit 2021-03-15: Only effects Flyspray source releases on Windows where running composer is required. Releases with included dependencies are not effected!

An incorrect email configuration may cause flyspray to hung during several seconds and report an exception.

Environment

* Linux Debian 10
* Nginx
* PHP-7.3 FPM
* Mariadb 10.3
* Flyspray 1.0-rc9

Steps done to create the problem:

1. Cause a misconfiguration in the email configuration (e.g. an email server rejecting the user authentication)
2. Try to post a comment on a ticket to generate a notification

Expected behavior:

Report the error in a logfile and gently show a user-friendly notification

Experienced behavior:

Flyspray hungs during several seconds and reports a user-unfriendly error:
The exception occurs in conditions that generate email notifications (e.g. posting a comment on a ticket):

Notice: fwrite(): send of 6 bytes failed with errno=104 Connection reset by peer in /var/www/flyspray/vendor/swiftmailer/swiftmailer/lib/classes/Swift/Transport/StreamBuffer.php on line 240 Completely unexpected exception: Expected response code 250 but got code "421", with message "XXX edited XXX"
This should never happend, please inform Flyspray Developers

FS version: 1.0-rc9
PHP version: 7.4.15
database: mysql
php.ini: error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT

Steps done to create the problem:
- Login as Admin or User, with name “Admin”, not with email.

Experienced behavior:
PHP Notice: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in …/flyspray-1.0-rc9/includes/class.flyspray.php on line 812

A possible fix is attached as patch.

Think, it is this line in currend code:
https://github.com/Flyspray/flyspray/blob/5b0a3d80fc9612ca8e8743450fbf2c8243b5bf47/includes/class.flyspray.php#L836

There should be only one request to

js/callbacks/gethistory.php when activating the History tab

The request is made:

• on mousedown event
• on click event

So holding down the tab sends the first request and releasing sends the second request.

The register spam by probably bots in 2016 is annoying.

I ticked the setting, that an admin must accept a new registration. It helps to reduce spam task, but now admin must decide if the registrations are ok or just spam bots.

Beside the need of antispam-plugins, the management of users can be improved:

• column sorting of user list, similiar to the tasklist
• filtering user list, similiar to the tasklist
• pagination of user list (25,50,100,200,all?)
• more columns:
  • last login implemented
  • last activity (a resulting task/comment/project change in database)
  • tasks created implemented
  • comments created implemented
  • votes implemented

that may help to decide what status or settings a user should have in future.

• show time zone setting and language setting of users implemented in userlist now

• mass accept/deny of a list of user registrations waiting for admin approval.

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?!
Official download flyspray-1.0-rc9

mysqlnd 5.0.12-dev
Linux 64bit
PHP Version 7.2.25

Steps done to create the problem:
Wait some weeke and edit a ID.
