Re: [mylar-dev] Help needed with connector integration

["Lubos and Alena Pochman" <pochmans@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have also started a wiki document about developing Mylar connector. It is a first draft and basically just my notes.
The document needs much more work (it is more fun to write the code than to document it 8-).

The document is on Javaforge http://www.javaforge.com/proj/wiki/displayPage.do?doc_id=23108.
If you have problem accessing it, login to Javaforge as user anonymous password anon.
Feel free to edit and extend the document, if you cannot do that as anonymous, please let me know and I can add you as javaforge user.

For query persistence you should also implement/subclass DelegatingTaskExternalizer and override its protected methods.

Hang in there, I went through the same pain while implementing CodeBeamer (Javaforge fame) connector (almost there, just some testing).
The best documentation I had (and it worked OK) was Eclipse Search and debugging. I explored other connectors, mainly
Jira and Trac and in lesser extent Bugzilla (Bugzilla connector breaks some rules and subclasses class which it should not
AbstractRepository data).

I had the same problem, NO documentation..

To create new queries, you have to implement the
AbstractRepositoryConnector.performQuery method.

This requires the creation of class for
1) AbstractQueryHit
2) AbstractRepositoryTask
3) AbstractRepositoryConnectorUi

I have a sample that simple reads task from a file, used it for
understand the basic requirements.  It performs some other additional
functions, but is still a working progress.


If you like I can post it.

Subject: [mylar-dev] Help needed with connector integration

Hello Mylar team,
recently I heard about Mylar and found it very cool. I think this is
excatly the kind of tool that makes developers more productive.

I started to integrate our own issue tracker into Mylar and I was
already able to integrate my own RepositoryConnector. After that I
started to write my own TaskDataHandler.

Due to the incomplete documentation I had a look on the JIRA and Trac
connectors, but I was not able to figure out were I have to start with
getting the tasks from my issue tracker and adding them to the list of
displayed tasks.

Any suggestions where to start with that? Is there anywhere some
documentation about that?

Regards,
Alex
