Slack integration for Mantis bug tracker

MantisBT-Slack

A MantisBT plugin to send bug updates to Slack, Mattermost and Discord channels.

Setup

• The master branch requires Mantis 2.x, while the master-1.2.x branch works for Mantis 1.2.x.

• Extract this repo to your Mantis folder/plugins/Slack.

• On the Slack side, add a new "Incoming Webhooks" integration and note the URL that Slack generates for you.

• On the MantisBT side, access the plugin's configuration page and fill in your Slack webhook URL.

• You can map your MantisBT projects to Slack channels by setting the plugin_Slack_channels option in Mantis. Follow the instructions on the plugin's configuration page to get there. Make sure the plugin_Slack_channels configuration option is set to "All Users", with type "complex". Example value for this setting:

        array (
          'My First Mantis Project' => '#general',
          'My Second Mantis Project' => '#second-project'
        )
  

• You can specify which bug fields appear in the Slack notifications. Edit the plugin_Slack_columns configuration option for this purpose. Follow the instructions on the plugin configuration page.

• For Discord, you need to append /slack so that Discord handles this as a Slack-compatible webhook. More info here.

• docker-compose build && docker-compose up
• Open http://localhost:8080/admin/install.php and install the database (using Admin credentials root / root)
