Re: [mylar-dev] Cool stuff!


  Copying here from 109905 issue.

As been discussed for issue 102848 it would make a lot of sense to implement JIRA provider for issue tracking plugin owned by Jeff Pound -
http://people.redhat.com/jpound/  It already has extendable architecture
(initially implemented by Eclipse Team plugin developers) and it would be a better integration point if Mylar would allow to select issues/queries from issue-tracking repositories registered in this plugin.

See more at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=102848 (should this issue have dependency on that one?)

  regards,
  Eugene

Thanks Alef, that's really great to hear.  We've been doing most feature
planning on bug reports, and the following bugzilla query will bring them
up.  I would love to brainstorm about any ideas that you come up with,
either on specific reports or on this list.

A contribution of JIRA integration would have huge value for Mylar because
the Task List is way more useful when your tasks are linked to the issue
tracking repository.  The Bugzilla plug-in currently extends the task list
via extension points and a bit of API and JIRA support could do the same,
staged something like this:

1) Make it possible to add JIRA issues by ID to task list categories,
contributing actions for creation, deletion, and opening with the internal
browser.
2) Add support for JIRA query categories.  The easiest way to do this
might
be to generalize our query execution support from ..mylar.bugzilla.ui to
..mylar.tasklists.
3) Integrate JIRA issue operations, such as adding comments and
attachments,
into an Eclipse editor that could be based off our current Bugzilla
editor.

(1) should be a fairly straightforward and well-scoped task, but first it
would be great to get your feedback on how you would like the JIRA support
to work.  Please comment on the following report:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=109905

Cheers,

Mik

Mik,

after I saw the flash demo, I immediately tried out the preview
release and I have to say; this is looking really promising! Is there
a list of planned features for Mylar or a way I can let you know any
ideas that I might have?

If my schedule permits, I'll certainly have a look at contributing
something back, such as JIRA integration (or is this something you're
looking at already)?

regards,
Alef Arendsen
