     1= Custom Ticket Fields
     2
     3Trac supports adding custom, user-defined fields to the ticket module. Using custom fields, you can add typed, site-specific properties to tickets.
     4
     5== Configuration
     6
     7Configuring custom ticket fields is done in the [wiki:TracIni trac.ini] file. All field definitions should be under a section named `[ticket-custom]`.
     8
     9The syntax of each field definition is:
     10{{{
     11 FIELD_NAME = TYPE
     12 (FIELD_NAME.OPTION = VALUE)
     13 ...
     14}}}
     15
     16The example below should help to explain the syntax.
     17
     18=== Available Field Types and Options
     19
     20 * '''text''': A simple (one line) text field.
     21   * label: Descriptive label.
     22   * value: Default value.
     23   * order: Sort order placement. Determines relative placement in forms with respect to other custom fields.
     24   * format: One of:
     25     * `plain` for plain text
     26     * `wiki` to interpret the content as WikiFormatting
     27     * `reference` to treat the content as a queryable value (''since 1.0'')
     28     * `list` to interpret the content as a list of queryable values, separated by whitespace (''since 1.0'')
     29 * '''checkbox''': A boolean value check box.
     30   * label: Descriptive label.
     31   * value: Default value: 0 or 1.
     32   * order: Sort order placement.
     33 * '''select''': Drop-down select box. Uses a list of values.
     34   * label: Descriptive label.
     35   * options: List of values, separated by '''|''' (vertical pipe).
     36   * value: Default value (one of the values from options).
     37   * order: Sort order placement.
     38 * '''radio''': Radio buttons. Essentially the same as '''select'''.
     39   * label: Descriptive label.
     40   * options: List of values, separated by '''|''' (vertical pipe).
     41   * value: Default value (one of the values from options).
     42   * order: Sort order placement.
     43 * '''textarea''': Multi-line text area.
     44   * label: Descriptive label.
     45   * value: Default text.
     46   * cols: Width in columns
     47   * rows: Height in lines.
     48   * order: Sort order placement.
     49   * format: Either `plain` for plain text or `wiki` to interpret the content as WikiFormatting.
     50
     51Macros will be expanded when rendering `textarea` fields with format `wiki`, but not when rendering `text` fields with format `wiki`.
     52
     53=== Sample Configuration
     54
     55{{{#!ini
     56[ticket-custom]
     57
     58test_one = text
     59test_one.label = Just a text box
     60
     61test_two = text
     62test_two.label = Another text-box
     63test_two.value = Default [mailto:joe@nospam.com owner]
     64test_two.format = wiki
     65
     66test_three = checkbox
     67test_three.label = Some checkbox
     68test_three.value = 1
     69
     70test_four = select
     71test_four.label = My selectbox
     72test_four.options = one|two|third option|four
     73test_four.value = two
     74
     75test_five = radio
     76test_five.label = Radio buttons are fun
     77test_five.options = uno|dos|tres|cuatro|cinco
     78test_five.value = dos
     79
     80test_six = textarea
     81test_six.label = This is a large textarea
     82test_six.value = Default text
     83test_six.cols = 60
     84test_six.rows = 30
     85}}}
     86
     87'''Note''': To make entering an option for a `select` type field optional, specify a leading `|` in the `fieldname.options` option.
     88
     89=== Reports Involving Custom Fields
     90
     91Custom ticket fields are stored in the `ticket_custom` table, not in the `ticket` table. So to display the values from custom fields in a report, you will need a join on the 2 tables. Let's use an example with a custom ticket field called `progress`.
     92
     93{{{#!sql
     94SELECT p.value AS __color__,
     95   id AS ticket, summary, owner, c.value AS progress
     96  FROM ticket t, enum p, ticket_custom c
     97  WHERE status IN ('assigned') AND t.id = c.ticket AND c.name = 'progress'
     98AND p.name = t.priority AND p.type = 'priority'
     99  ORDER BY p.value
     100}}}
     101
     102'''Note''': This will only show tickets that have progress set in them, which is '''not the same as showing all tickets'''. If you created this custom ticket field ''after'' you have already created some tickets, they will not have that field defined, and thus they will never show up on this ticket query. If you go back and modify those tickets, the field will be defined, and they will appear in the query. If that is all that is required, you're set.
     103
     104However, if you want to show all ticket entries (with progress defined and without), you need to use a `JOIN` for every custom field that is in the query:
     105{{{#!sql
     106SELECT p.value AS __color__,
     107   id AS ticket, summary, component, version, milestone, severity,
     108   (CASE status WHEN 'assigned' THEN owner||' *' ELSE owner END) AS owner,
     109   time AS created,
     110   changetime AS _changetime, description AS _description,
     111   reporter AS _reporter,
     112   (CASE WHEN c.value = '0' THEN 'None' ELSE c.value END) AS progress
     113  FROM ticket t
     114     LEFT OUTER JOIN ticket_custom c ON (t.id = c.ticket AND c.name = 'progress')
     115     JOIN enum p ON p.name = t.priority AND p.type='priority'
     116  WHERE status IN ('new', 'assigned', 'reopened')
     117  ORDER BY p.value, milestone, severity, time
     118}}}
     119
     120Note in particular the `LEFT OUTER JOIN` statement here.
     121
     122Note that if your config file uses an '''uppercase''' name:
     123{{{#!ini
     124[ticket-custom]
     125
     126Progress_Type = text
     127}}}
     128you would use '''lowercase''' in the SQL: `AND c.name = 'progress_type'`.
     129
     130=== Updating the database
     131
     132As noted above, any tickets created before a custom field has been defined will not have a value for that field. Here is some SQL (tested with SQLite) that you can run directly on the Trac database to set an initial value for custom ticket fields. It inserts the default value of 'None' into a custom field called 'request_source' for all tickets that have no existing value:
     133
     134{{{#!sql
     135INSERT INTO ticket_custom
     136   (ticket, name, value)
     137   SELECT
     138      id AS ticket,
     139      'request_source' AS name,
     140      'None' AS value
     141   FROM ticket
     142   WHERE id NOT IN (
     143      SELECT ticket FROM ticket_custom
     144   );
     145}}}
     146
     147If you added multiple custom fields at different points in time, you should be more specific in the subquery on table {{{ticket}}} by adding the exact custom field name to the query:
     148
     149{{{#!sql
     150INSERT INTO ticket_custom
     151   (ticket, name, value)
     152   SELECT
     153      id AS ticket,
     154      'request_source' AS name,
     155      'None' AS value
     156   FROM ticket
     157   WHERE id NOT IN (
     158      SELECT ticket FROM ticket_custom WHERE name = 'request_source'
     159   );
     160}}}
     161
