People having worked with TRAC are used to "accept" issues, which basically states that someone will now actively work on a specific issue. Redmine apparently also supports custom issue statuses, such as "accepted", but it requires more than one click to accept an issue (edit issue, select status "accepted", select assignee). This plugin allows to accept tickets with one click.
The plugin can be installed as ordinary redmine plugin (compatible with redmine 3.2.x, 3.0.x, 2.6.x) and does not require database migration:
- Create directory your_redmine_base/plugins/accept
- Copy the content of this repository to the created directory
- Restart redmine (e.g., through "touch your_redmine_base/tmp/restart.txt)
- The accept plugin needs to know which issue status is considered as "accepted" in your redmine installation. By default, the first status is considered the "accepted" status. This behaviour can be configured in your redmine installation: Administration --> Plugins --> Accept Plugin --> Configure
- From version 0.0.2, it is possible to define the accept status per tracker. This means, depending on the tracker the issue is assigned to, a different accept status may be selected. If you do not wish to have a different accept status for each tracker, it is stil possible to configure a common accept state for all trackers.
- The accept button does not show up. Why?
- The accept button will only show up if you are listed in the combo box with "Assigned to".
- If the issue is already closed, the button will not show up.
- If you have already accepted the isse - meaning that the issue is already in the defined accept state, the button will not show up.
- Allows the accept status to be dependent on the tracker the issue is assigned to, see #5.
- First version of the plugin.
