New Plugin: Dependencies and progress indicator
Hi,
I am using PP since 3 month in our construction company and decide to hire a professional coder to do some mods on it.
The first one: dependencies and progress indicator is online now. please check the issue section for access. I need some of you now for testing the code quite shortly :-) It looks very nice for me !
Below the last mail from the coder so that you know what has been done:
----------------------
Thanks i have been able to upload the first version..
In this you will be able to add a percentage to each task in the edit mode.. also to a milestone in case there are no task lists in a milestone..
It also shows the percentage task completed in a graphical way as you had given in your document. The only thing is that i have added another color for the task percentage graphical display in the tasks area. Basically the color scheme of this tool is light hence the dark red was standing out too strong.. i have added it only in one section so that you can comment on which one do you like better.
It also calculates the milestone percentages by calculating the average percentage achieved and rounding it off. The milestone percentage is also displayed graphically desired by you.
Here, i have also implemented the dependency concept.. in which if a task is not 100% complete, the user will not be able to check it complete. and in case all the tasks under a milestone are not 100% complete it will not allow to mark the milestone as complete
-------------------------
So far ...
Cheers Dreambox
No one ?
really bad ...
You need to post a copy of your code for people to review and test it. It should be done as an attachment to an issue or you can discuss it on the dev mailing list.
Please look at http://projectpier.org/svn and/or http://projectpier.org/development for more details
Hi Ryan,
as told, I hired a coder to do the mods. The plugin is still in beta status and I don't want to do the "PP-plugin modification" to the code until everything is tested and checked, because this is too time consuming ( in other words: I need to pay for this extra. ) therefor online testing is needed and the final plugin will be released when everything is finished.
BTW:
ANOTHER NEW PLUGIN IS RELEASED TO MY DEMO ACCOUNT:
TREEVIEW OF MILESTONES AND TASKS - Alfa Version. ( as pre-step to the following gantt chart :-)
Please have a look.
Hey Dreambox,
Glad to see you're making progress. While it is great to be able to see some of the progress via your demo account, this doesn't really allow the community to test or review the changes. Some community members might even be able to contribute fixes/enhancements to your patch as part of this open development process - one example will be security tests, since you probably don't want people trying to break your server. Also, there is not any "PP-plugin modification" necessary to release your changes. You can see the revision process in some of existing issue queues. Any competent programmer should be able to execute a single command to generate the necessary patch file (http://projectpier.org/patch/create) Working with the community like this will also help you in the long run since myself and other community members will be able to review your code changes and give feedback, making them more likely to be incorporated in future versions (meaning easier upgrades for you down the line). I would also encourage your developer to read over the development guidelines (http://projectpier.org/development) and code documentation (http://api.projectpier.org) and come chat or get help from us in the IRC channel.
Thanks
Hi Ryan,
I will forward my programmer to your links. Thanks.
(http://projectpier.org/patch/create) is not working.
Cheers
That's odd that its not working. You can also just point him to http://projectpier.org/svn which is part of the development handbook.
Hey Dreambox,
this sounds great! Where can i check/get this?
Greets and thx for your plugin,
