1 This file contains the changes to the Roundup system over time. The entries
2 are given with the most recent entry first.
4 2001-08-03 - 0.2.5
5 Note:
6 . The bsddb3 module has a bug that renders it non-functional. Users should
7 select the anydbm or bsddb backend instead.
9 Fixed:
10 . Python 2.0 does not contain the unittest module. The setup.py module now
11 checks for unittest before attempting to run the unit tests.
14 2001-08-03 - 0.2.4
15 Features:
16 . Added ability for cgi newblah forms to indicate that the new node
17 should be linked somewhere.
18 . Added time logging and file uploading to the templates.
19 . Added "My Issues" and "My Support" to extended template. Changed "Your
20 Details" to "My Details". Changed the "New Foo" links to "Add Foo".
21 Added links for unassigned support and issues. Generally reorganised and
22 cleanup the header up.
23 . Changed the order of the information in the message generated by web edits.
24 . Extended the range of intervals that are pretty-printed before actual dates
25 are displayed.
26 . Added more BUILD instructions including the "clean" command to force
27 rebuild.
28 . Web edit messages aren't sent to the person who did the edit any more. No
29 message is generated if they are the only person on the nosy list.
30 . Roundupdb now appends "mailing list" information to its messages which
31 include the e-mail address and web interface address. Templates may
32 override this in their db classes to include specific information (support
33 instructions, etc).
35 Fixed:
36 . Argument handling for the roundup-admin find command.
37 . Handling of summary when no note supplied for newblah. Again.
38 . Detection of no form in htmltemplate Field display.
39 . Checklist html template command was setting wrong name.
40 . 2.1-specific gmtime() (no arg) call in roundup.date. (thanks Paul Wright)
41 . mailgw was making naughty assumptions about the schema of the classes it
42 was creating nodes for.
43 . remove the $Foo$ from the HTML files stored in the htmlbase modules.
44 . Instance import now imports the instance using imp.load_module so that
45 we can have instance homes of "roundup" or other existing python package
46 names.
49 2001-07-30 - 0.2.3
50 Big change:
51 . I've split off the support class from the issue class in "extended".
52 Anyone who has any support entries, sorry. It should be possible to
53 write a scipt that moves the entries over pretty easily. If this causes
54 you pain, I'll do so. You'll want to update your instance with the new
55 code in "extended" either way.
57 Features:
58 . Added the unit tests to the start of setup.py so they're run whenever
59 we do anything distutils'y.
60 . Added nicer prompting to the roundup-admin "init" command.
61 . Actually, the roundup-admin code is totally revamped, and has command
62 help and better command-line arg handling.
63 . The cgi_client.Client base class now reflects the structure of "classic"
64 rather than "extended" since "classic" is more of a "base" template.
65 . Added more DB to test. Skips tests where imports fail.
67 Fixed:
68 . One of the tests in test_date had the wrong expected result.
69 . Fixed IssueClass so that superseders links to its classname rather than
70 hard-coded to "issue".
71 . templatebuilder was catching IOError instead of OSError.
72 . The cgi_client newblah method wasn't detecting the __note form field
73 properly.
74 . The History command in htmltemplate didn't handle a new node (None
75 nodeid) properly.
78 2001-07-29 - 0.2.2
79 Features:
80 . Added implementation.txt to the doc directory. Contains implementation
81 notes specific to this implementations of Roundup.
82 . Cleaned up mailgw some (subclass Message for getPart) and added some
83 tests for multipart splitting.
84 . Better checking for html dir in templatebuilder.
85 . Base hyperdb.Class now fakes the "id" property.
86 . Made the classic roundup look more like the original prototype.
87 . Made cgi_client and templating slightly more generic.
88 . Moved some code around in cgi_client allowing for subclassing to change
89 behaviour.
90 . Added the fabricated property "id" to all hyperdb classes.
91 . Cleanup of the link label generation (new method on hyperdb.Class to do
92 it).
94 Fixed:
95 . Everything uses errno module now to check errno values.
96 . New issue form handles lack of note better now.
97 . HTML templating uses section-bar style for index group headers now.
98 . Fixed problem in link display when Link value is None.
99 . Form handling in cgi client wasn't propogating through the previous
100 query elements.
101 . Fixed sort arguments generated for column headings so sorting can be
102 changed now.
105 2001-07-28 - 0.2.1
106 Features:
107 . Added docstring to roundup package so pydoc reports useful information.
108 . Added the roundup 1 software carpentry submission HTML to the doc
109 directory as "overview.html".
111 Fixes:
112 . Fixed bug in init command - templatebuilder was assuming existence of
113 "html" directory in instance home.
114 . Fixed INSTALL.txt to reflect some changes in the installation and test
115 procedure. Whatdya know, "setup.py install" does the script install.
116 There you go...
117 . Fixed some non-string node ids in cgi_client now that the hyperdb is
118 strict about such things.
120 2001-07-26 - 0.2.0
121 Features:
122 . Major reorganisation of code to allow multiple roundup instances and a
123 single, site-packages -based installation. Also allows multiple database
124 back-ends.
125 . Moved the bin/ proggies into the top dir, so that it all works
126 out-of-the-box
127 . Added the "classic" template - a direct implementation of the Roundup
128 spec. Well, as close as we're going to get, anyway.
129 . Added an issue priority of support to "extended"
130 . Added command-line arg handling to roundup-server so it's more useful
131 out-of-the-box.
132 . Added distutils-style installation of "lib" files.
133 . Added some unit tests.
135 Fixes:
136 . Fixed bug in re generation in the filter
137 . Fixed handling of None String property in grouped list headings
138 . Fixed adding new issue with no change note
139 . Fixed values in text input fields which contained quotes (") are now
140 quoted.
141 . Fixed a bug in the hyperdb filter - wrong variable names in the error
142 message.
144 2001-07-19 - 0.1.3
145 . Reldate now takes an argument "pretty" - when true, it pretty-prints the
146 interval generated up to 5 days, then pretty-prints the date of last
147 activity. The issue index and item now use the pretty format.
148 . Classes list for admin user in CGI interface.
149 . Made the view configuration more accessible, neater and more realistic.
150 . Fixed list view grouping handling grouping by a Multilink or String or Link
151 value of None or Date, ... (mind you, sorting by Date???)
152 . Fixed bug in the plain formatter when a Link was None.
153 . Fixed ordering of list view column headings.
154 . Fixed list view column heading sort links - and limited the number of
155 columns to sort by to 2.
156 . Added searching by glob to StringType filtering -
157 ^text - search for text at start of fields
158 text$ - search for text at end of fields
159 ^text$ - exactly match text in fields
160 te*xt - search for text matching "te"<any characters>"xt"
161 te?xt - search for text matching "te"<any one character>"xt"
162 . Added more fields to the issue.filter and issue.index templates
165 2001-07-18 - 0.1.2
166 . Set default index to ?:group=priority&:columns=activity,status,title so
167 the priority column isn't displayed.
168 . Thanks Anthony:
169 . added notes to the README about Python prerequisites
170 . added check to roundup.py, roundup.cgi, server.py and roundup-mailgw.py
171 for python 2+ - and made the file itself parseable by 1.5.2 ;)
172 . python 2.0 didn't have the default args for the time module functions.
173 . better handling of db directory in initDB
174 . Sorting on the extra properties defined by roundupdb classes was broken
175 due to the caching used. May now sort on activity and creation
176 properties, etc.
177 . Set the default index to sort on activity
180 2001-07-18 - 0.1.1
181 . Initial version release with consent of Roundup spec author, Ka-Ping Yee:
182 "Amazing! Nice work. I'll watch for the source code on your website."
184 2001-07-11 - 0.1.0
185 . Needed a bug tracking system. Looked around. Tried to install many
186 Perl-based systems, to no avail. Got tired of waiting for Roundup to be
187 released. Had just finished major product project, so needed something
188 different for a while. Roundup here I come...
