Mylyn Generic Web Templates Connector and the bug tracker at PEAR

the Last time I do not think of their work in Eclipse without Mylyn. Using Mylyn I brought in the unified task list from Jira that is used for work, Mantis used in your own project, Redmine, used on another project... Good for all of these systems there are ready-made connectors. But today I needed to connect and bug tracker PEAR for which no connector. Fortunately, good people have provided in Mylyn such a thing as Generic Web Templates Connector, allowing, in theory, connect to any bug tracker. Under the cut I'll share my experience configuring this connector for PEAR.

Poryskav on the Internet, I found this article. Unfortunately, it is a little outdated, but the General path she pointed out to me.

Generic Web Templates Connector not included in delivery of Mylyn by default. To install this connector from the update site: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/incubator. There is this connector called "Mylyn Connector: Web Templates (Advanced)" (dokumentacija).

create a storage connection



After you install the connector, go to Task Repositories View and add a new repository task. In the type list, select the storage Web Templates (Advanced), click "Next" and move to setting.



At the beginning of the specified shared storage options:

the

    Server: 

    http://pear.php.net

    Label: the name of the store (to your taste)

    User ID: your username pear.php.net. You can leave the checkbox "Anonymous" installed and don't specify. I provide your username, just so it can be used in queries to filter tasks (see below).

    Password: password. Generally speaking, it is not needed, but if there is nothing to write Eclipse will swear.



Now the fun begins. Expand the section "Additional Settings". Here we can define variables, which will later be available to us in the form of substitutions in templates. I have defined the following variables:

the

    serverURL 

    http://pear.php.net
    Chuck Burgess in his article recommends the use of the https, but I did not.

    package_name — the name of the package that interests you. Required if you want to be able to create new tasks from within Eclipse.

    limit — how many requests to display in the search results. As you like. You can generally leave blank.

    id — honestly, I don't really understand why Chuck introduced this variable, but let it be.



All of these variables will be available in the templates as "${VariableName}". For example, the server address will be substituted for ${serverURL}.

Next, expand the section "Advanced Configuration" and see a lot of scary>.

the

    Task URL — address of the page viewing tasks: 

    ${serverUrl}/bugs/bug.php?id=${id}

    New Tasl URL — address to create a new task (may be left blank if you are not going to create tasks): 

    ${serverUrl}/bugs/report.php?package=${package_name}

    Query Request URL — address to query for task list. Will be entered by default in your requests. Can be changed at each request individually: 

    ${serverUrl}/bugs/search.php?cmd=display&status=OpenFeedback&limit=${limit}&package_name%5b%5d=${package_name}
    You can adjust this address to suit your needs, for example, to remove the name of the package or change the statuses.

    Query Pattern — a template that Mylyn will pull information about the task from the search results page. The pattern uses regular expressions and special lookup Mylyn. I conjured up this Scarecrow
    <tr class="bug-result Asn">[\s]*<td class="bug-id"><a href="/bugs/({Id}[0-9]+)">[0-9]+</a><br /><a href="[^"]*" class="edit">\(edit\)</a></td>[\s]*<td class="bug-date">....-..-..</td>[\s]*<td>({Type}[a-zA-Z]+)</td>[\s]*<td>[^<]*</td>[\s]*<td>[^<]*</td>[\s]*<td>[^<]*</td>[\s]*<td>[^<]*</td>[\s]*<td>({Description}.[^<]+)</td>[\s]*<td>({Owner}[a-zA-Z]+)</td>[\s]*</tr>



Authorization I decided not to fool, so all the fields "Login *" left blank. Instead, after the storage settings, I just dropped the built in Eclipse browser pear.php.net and logged in there, clicking the checkbox "remember me".

Click "Finish". Store ready, you can now create a query.

creating a query



The queries, as you might guess, are used to obtain from the repository of tasks that satisfy some conditions. Usually assigned to you.

Right-click the repository and select "New Query...". The dialog that opens is very similar to the previous one.



In the field "Query Title" specify the query name, such as "All queries".

The other default fields will be filled in the same way as they are the same name field in the add dialog of the vault. Here, if you want, you can change them to fit the needs of the particular request. For example, I want to create a query "Tasks assigned to me", showing only those tasks where I stand by. To do this I can edit the field "Query URLS", adding a &assign=${userId} (the full URL will be: ${serverUrl}/bugs/search.php?cmd=display&status=OpenFeedback&limit=${limit}&package_name%5b%5d=${package_name}&assign=${userId}).

note:

In this dialogue there are two extremely useful buttons "Open" and "Preview". The first opens performs all the lookup in the Query URLS, and opens the resulting url in browser, the second parses the page at Query URL with the regular expression in Query Pattern and issues found tasks in the list below.

This greatly helps in debugging templates.


Save the query. And if everything is correct, then the task of the PEAR appear in the task list, Mylyn:



Of course, for such tasks is not available all the buns Mylyn, but the main present: context, planning, personal notes. In my opinion, enough to work.

Looking for books as you want

Изображение
this last week or two, as curious users can watch Russian search service on books from Google . However, the General public before the official announcement from Google itself remains in the dark. Meanwhile, already there is something to see and something to tell. Besides, Google has not gone unnoticed in Yandex, which last week began offering users with Store cards and the output presented there books. What, in turn, did not fail to say publicly. Let's take a closer look at what is offered book lovers the giants of the search. Let's start with Google. The California company offers us their traditional approach. Typing in the familiar search bar the title of the book, we get... well, what we will get, greatly depends on many factors. Mostly while where a book has been published. If it's a popular publication in the United States (as an example from reference service — exposing the social ills of America's best-selling book " Fast Food Nation "), the...

Automatically create Liquibase migrations for PostgreSQL

Изображение
Working with Liquibase always brings confidence in the fact that the database objects are in the same condition in which you want it. It is this confidence and makes system migrations so popular databases. Today I want to tell you how to make using liquibase a bit easier. If you write a migration by hand, and your target database is PostgreSQL, then read this article, I am sure, the time spent on reading the article will be repaid with interest. I hope you already know how to work with Liquibase, so only two words describe how the system works. In order to make changes in the database, you need to create a migration file (changeset) that you need to specify in the file change log (changelog), after which the migration can be successfully applied to the target database. Undeniable and obvious benefit of this approach is the ability to rollback the changes. In my opinion, liquibase, there is only one drawback — the automatic rollback of changes only works only if the mi...

Vkontakte sync with address book for iPhone. How it was done

Изображение
the Background application on androidphone when you install the application Vkontakte is possible to use it as a provider of contacts to synchronize the contacts from Facebook with contacts in your address book. In this case stretches the avatar, date of birth, address, phone numbers, etc. When I after prolonged use HTC Wildfire S rated and are so used to this that he wanted to find a similar to the iPhone. Not found, so we took it and made his own — Synchronizer VKontakte :) It was back in November of last year. The application was done fairly quickly — it uses quite a few functions of Vkontakte API and functionality with the address book of the iPhone. But when we started to deal with the automatic matching of contacts, it was fun. Compare head-on by name, last name and phone number was easy to do, easy, and worked through it quickly. But found only 20 percent of coincidences of the contacts from what is provider in Android. Of course, only direct hits do not sui...
