    1 = The Trac Ticket Workflow System
    2 
    3 [[PageOutline(2-5,Contents,pullout)]]
    4 [[TracGuideToc]]
    5 The Trac ticket system provides a configurable workflow.
    6 
    7 == The Default Ticket Workflow
    8 
    9 === Environments upgraded from 0.10
    10 
    11 When you run `trac-admin <env> upgrade`, your `trac.ini` will be modified to include a `[ticket-workflow]` section.
    12 The workflow configured in this case is the original workflow, so that ticket actions will behave like they did in 0.10:
    13 
    14 {{{#!Workflow width=500 height=240
    15 leave = * -> *
    16 leave.operations = leave_status
    17 leave.default = 1
    18 accept = new -> assigned
    19 accept.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    20 accept.operations = set_owner_to_self
    21 resolve = new,assigned,reopened -> closed
    22 resolve.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    23 resolve.operations = set_resolution
    24 reassign = new,assigned,reopened -> new
    25 reassign.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    26 reassign.operations = set_owner
    27 reopen = closed -> reopened
    28 reopen.permissions = TICKET_CREATE
    29 reopen.operations = del_resolution
    30 }}}
    31 
    32 There are some significant caveats in this, such as accepting a ticket sets it to 'assigned' state, and assigning a ticket sets it to 'new' state. So you will probably want to migrate to "basic" workflow, see contrib/workflow/migrate_original_to_basic.py.
    33 
    34 === Environments created with 0.11
    35 
    36 When a new environment is created, a default workflow is configured in your trac.ini. This workflow is the basic workflow, such as specified in `basic-workflow.ini`, which is somewhat different from the workflow of the 0.10 releases:
    37 
    38 {{{#!Workflow width=700 height=300
    39 leave = * -> *
    40 leave.operations = leave_status
    41 leave.default = 1
    42 accept = new,assigned,accepted,reopened -> accepted
    43 accept.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    44 accept.operations = set_owner_to_self
    45 resolve = new,assigned,accepted,reopened -> closed
    46 resolve.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    47 resolve.operations = set_resolution
    48 reassign = new,assigned,accepted,reopened -> assigned
    49 reassign.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    50 reassign.operations = set_owner
    51 reopen = closed -> reopened
    52 reopen.permissions = TICKET_CREATE
    53 reopen.operations = del_resolution
    54 }}}
    55 
    56 == Additional Ticket Workflows
    57 
    58 There are example workflows provided in the Trac source tree, see [trac:source:trunk/contrib/workflow contrib/workflow] for `.ini` config sections. One of those may be a good match for what you want. They can be pasted into the `[ticket-workflow]` section of your `trac.ini` file. However, if you have existing tickets then there may be issues if those tickets have states that are not in the new workflow.
    59 
    60 Here are some [trac:WorkFlow/Examples diagrams] of the above examples.
    61 
    62 == Basic Ticket Workflow Customization
    63 
    64 '''Note''': Ticket "statuses" or "states" are not separately defined. The states a ticket can be in are automatically generated by the transitions defined in a workflow. Therefore, creating a new ticket state simply requires defining a state transition in the workflow that starts or ends with that state.
    65 
    66 Create a `[ticket-workflow]` section in `trac.ini`.
    67 Within this section, each entry is an action that may be taken on a ticket.
    68 For example, consider the `accept` action from `simple-workflow.ini`:
    69 
    70 {{{#!ini
    71 accept = new,accepted -> accepted
    72 accept.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    73 accept.operations = set_owner_to_self
    74 }}}
    75 
    76 The first line in this example defines the `accept` action, along with the states the action is valid in (`new` and `accepted`), and the new state of the ticket when the action is taken (`accepted`).
    77 The `accept.permissions` line specifies what permissions the user must have to use this action.
    78 The `accept.operations` line specifies changes that will be made to the ticket in addition to the status change when this action is taken.  In this case, when a user clicks on `accept`, the ticket owner field is updated to the logged in user.  Multiple operations may be specified in a comma separated list.
    79 
    80 The available operations are:
    81 - **del_owner** -- Clear the owner field.
    82 - **set_owner** -- Sets the owner to the selected or entered owner. Defaults to the current user. When `[ticket] restrict_owner = true`, the select will be populated with users that have `TICKET_MODIFY` permission and an authenticated session.
    83  - ''actionname''`.set_owner` may optionally be set to a comma delimited list of users that will be used to populate the select, or a single user.
    84 - **set_owner_to_self** -- Sets the owner to the logged in user.
    85 - **del_resolution** -- Clears the resolution field.
    86 - **set_resolution** -- Sets the resolution to the selected value.
    87  - ''actionname''`.set_resolution` may optionally be set to a comma delimited list or a single value. Example:
    88  {{{#!ini
    89 resolve_new = new -> closed
    90 resolve_new.name = resolve
    91 resolve_new.operations = set_resolution
    92 resolve_new.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    93 resolve_new.set_resolution = invalid,wontfix
    94 }}}
    95 - **leave_status** -- Displays "leave as <current status>" and makes no change to the ticket.
    96 - **reset_workflow** -- Resets the status of tickets that are in states no longer defined.
    97 '''Note:''' Specifying conflicting operations, such as `set_owner` and `del_owner`, has unspecified results.
    98 
    99 In this example, we see the `.name` attribute used. The action here is `resolve_accepted`, but it will be presented to the user as `resolve`:
    100 
    101 {{{#!ini
    102 resolve_accepted = accepted -> closed
    103 resolve_accepted.name = resolve
    104 resolve_accepted.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    105 resolve_accepted.operations = set_resolution
    106 }}}
    107 
    108 For actions that should be available in all states, `*` may be used in place of the state. The obvious example is the `leave` action:
    109 {{{#!ini
    110 leave = * -> *
    111 leave.operations = leave_status
    112 leave.default = 1
    113 }}}
    114 
    115 This also shows the use of the `.default` attribute. This value is expected to be an integer, and the order in which the actions are displayed is determined by this value. The action with the highest `.default` value is listed first, and is selected by default. The rest of the actions are listed in order of decreasing `.default` values.
    116 If not specified for an action, `.default` is 0. The value may be negative.
    117 
    118 There are a couple of hard-coded constraints to the workflow. In particular, tickets are created with status `new`, and tickets are expected to have a `closed` state. Further, the default reports/queries treat any state other than `closed` as an open state.
    119 
    120 The special `_reset` action is added by default for tickets that are in states that are no longer defined. This allows tickets to be individually "repaired" after the workflow is changed, although it's recommended that the administrator perform the action by batch modifying the affected tickets. By default the `_reset` action is available to users with the `TICKET_ADMIN` permission and reset tickets are put in the //new// state. The default `_reset` action is equivalent to the following `[ticket-workflow]` action definition:
    121 
    122 {{{#!ini
    123 _reset = -> new
    124 _reset.name = reset
    125 _reset.operations = reset_workflow
    126 _reset.permissions = TICKET_ADMIN
    127 _reset.default = 0
    128 }}}
    129 
    130 Since [trac:milestone:1.0.3] the `_reset` action can be customized by redefining the implicit action. For example, to allow anyone with `TICKET_MODIFY` to perform the `_reset` action, the workflow action would need to be defined:
    131 
    132 {{{#!ini
    133 _reset = -> new
    134 _reset.name = reset
    135 _reset.operations = reset_workflow
    136 _reset.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    137 _reset.default = 0
    138 }}}
    139 
    140 == Workflow Visualization
    141 
    142 Workflows can be visualized by rendering them on the wiki using the [WikiMacros#Workflow-macro Workflow macro].
    143 
    144 Workflows can also be visualized using the `contrib/workflow/workflow_parser.py` script. The script outputs `.dot` files that [http://www.graphviz.org GraphViz] understands. The script can be used as follows (your install path may be different):
    145 
    146 {{{#!sh
    147 cd /var/local/trac_devel/contrib/workflow/
    148 sudo ./showworkflow /srv/trac/PlannerSuite/conf/trac.ini
    149 }}}
    150 And then open up the resulting `trac.pdf` file created by the script. It will be in the same directory as the `trac.ini` file.
    151 
    152 After you have changed a workflow, you need to restart your webserver for the changes to take effect.
    153 
    154 == Example: Adding optional Testing with Workflow
    155 
    156 By adding the following to your [ticket-workflow] section of trac.ini you get optional testing. When the ticket has status `new`, `accepted` or `needs_work`, you can choose to submit it for testing.  When it's in the testing status the user gets the option to reject it and send it back to `needs_work`, or pass the testing and send it along to `closed`. If they accept it, then it is automatically marked as `closed` and the resolution is set to `fixed`. Since all the old work flow remains, a ticket can skip this entire section.
    157 
    158 {{{#!ini
    159 testing = new,accepted,needs_work,assigned,reopened -> testing
    160 testing.name = Submit to reporter for testing
    161 testing.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    162 
    163 reject = testing -> needs_work
    164 reject.name = Failed testing, return to developer
    165 
    166 pass = testing -> closed
    167 pass.name = Passes Testing
    168 pass.operations = set_resolution
    169 pass.set_resolution = fixed
    170 }}}
    171 
    172 === How to combine the `tracopt.ticket.commit_updater` with the testing workflow
    173 
    174 The [[trac:source:trunk/tracopt/ticket/commit_updater.py|tracopt.ticket.commit_updater]] is the optional component that [[TracRepositoryAdmin#trac-post-commit-hook|replaces the old trac-post-commit-hook]], in Trac 0.12.
    175 
    176 By default it reacts on some keywords found in changeset message logs like ''close'', ''fix'' etc. and performs the corresponding workflow action.
    177 
    178 If you have a more complex workflow, like the testing stage described above and you want the ''closes'' keyword to move the ticket to the ''testing'' status instead of the ''closed'' status, you need to adapt the code a bit.
    179 
    180 Have a look at the [[trac:wiki:0.11/TracWorkflow#How-ToCombineSVNtrac-post-commit-hookWithTestWorkflow|Trac 0.11 recipe]] for the `trac-post-commit-hook`, this will give you some ideas about how to modify the component.
    181 
    182 == Example: Add simple optional generic review state
    183 
    184 Sometimes Trac is used in situations where "testing" can mean different things to different people so you may want to create an optional workflow state that is between the default workflow's `assigned` and `closed` states, but does not impose implementation-specific details. The only new state you need to add for this is a `reviewing` state. A ticket may then be "submitted for review" from any state that it can be reassigned. If a review passes, you can re-use the `resolve` action to close the ticket, and if it fails you can re-use the `reassign` action to push it back into the normal workflow.
    185 
    186 The new `reviewing` state along with its associated `review` action looks like this:
    187 
    188 {{{#!ini
    189 review = new,assigned,reopened -> reviewing
    190 review.operations = set_owner
    191 review.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    192 }}}
    193 
    194 Then, to integrate this with the default Trac 0.11 workflow, you also need to add the `reviewing` state to the `accept` and `resolve` actions:
    195 
    196 {{{#!ini
    197 accept = new,reviewing -> assigned
    198 […]
    199 resolve = new,assigned,reopened,reviewing -> closed
    200 }}}
    201 
    202 Optionally, you can also add a new action that allows you to change the ticket's owner without moving the ticket out of the `reviewing` state. This enables you to reassign review work without pushing the ticket back to the `new` status:
    203 
    204 {{{#!ini
    205 reassign_reviewing = reviewing -> *
    206 reassign_reviewing.name = reassign review
    207 reassign_reviewing.operations = set_owner
    208 reassign_reviewing.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    209 }}}
    210 
    211 The full `[ticket-workflow]` configuration will thus look like this:
    212 
    213 {{{#!ini
    214 [ticket-workflow]
    215 accept = new,reviewing -> assigned
    216 accept.operations = set_owner_to_self
    217 accept.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    218 leave = * -> *
    219 leave.default = 1
    220 leave.operations = leave_status
    221 reassign = new,assigned,accepted,reopened -> assigned
    222 reassign.operations = set_owner
    223 reassign.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    224 reopen = closed -> reopened
    225 reopen.operations = del_resolution
    226 reopen.permissions = TICKET_CREATE
    227 resolve = new,assigned,reopened,reviewing -> closed
    228 resolve.operations = set_resolution
    229 resolve.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    230 review = new,assigned,reopened -> reviewing
    231 review.operations = set_owner
    232 review.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    233 reassign_reviewing = reviewing -> *
    234 reassign_reviewing.operations = set_owner
    235 reassign_reviewing.name = reassign review
    236 reassign_reviewing.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    237 }}}
    238 
    239 == Example: Limit the resolution options for a new ticket
    240 
    241 The above `resolve_new` operation allows you to set the possible resolutions for a new ticket. By modifying the existing resolve action and removing the new status from before the `->` we then get two resolve actions. One with limited resolutions for new tickets, and then the regular one once a ticket is accepted.
    242 
    243 {{{#!ini
    244 resolve_new = new -> closed
    245 resolve_new.name = resolve
    246 resolve_new.operations = set_resolution
    247 resolve_new.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    248 resolve_new.set_resolution = invalid,wontfix,duplicate
    249 
    250 resolve = assigned,accepted,reopened -> closed
    251 resolve.operations = set_resolution
    252 resolve.permissions = TICKET_MODIFY
    253 }}}
    254 
    255 == Advanced Ticket Workflow Customization
    256 
    257 If the customizations above do not meet your needs, you can extend the workflow with plugins. Plugins can provide additional operations for the workflow, like code_review, or implement side-effects for an action, such as triggering a build, that may not be merely simple state changes. Look at [trac:source:trunk/sample-plugins/workflow sample-plugins/workflow] for a few examples to get started.
    258 
    259 But if even that is not enough, you can disable the !ConfigurableTicketWorkflow component and create a plugin that completely replaces it.
    260 
    261 == Adding Workflow States to Milestone Progress Bars
    262 
    263 If you add additional states to your workflow, you may want to customize your milestone progress bars as well. See [TracIni#milestone-groups-section TracIni].
    264 
    265 == Ideas for next steps
    266 
    267 New enhancement ideas for the workflow system should be filed as enhancement tickets against the `ticket system` component.  You can also document ideas on the [trac:TracIdeas/TracWorkflow TracIdeas/TracWorkflow] page. Also look at the [http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/AdvancedTicketWorkflowPlugin AdvancedTicketWorkflowPlugin] as it provides experimental operations.
    268 
    269 Some of the ideas described here are originally proposed in [trac:NewWorkflow].
