Description

We had a need to filter the results of a TicketQuery by user groups (from the permission system) to keep query results from becoming overwhelming. The attached patch does this by expanding a 'username' like '@software' in the owner field of a query to all the users with that role. This is a very rough implementation for now (the group functionality should be provided by the permissions system and there should be a way to list groups on the Custom Query page) but I'm putting it up anyway in the hope that the idea is useful.

We use this like

[[TicketQuery(status=blocked,order=owner,owner=@software)]]

Thanks for the patch, we'll look into it.

comment:2 by Christian Boos, 16 years ago

As you noted though, the PermissionSystem should actually have better group support, something we might still do in time for 0.12.

Milestone:	0.12 → next-minor-0.12.x

Not a blocker for 0.12.

Milestone:	next-minor-0.12.x → next-major-0.1X

I think this depends also on #5648, therefore next major milestone.

For next-major indeed.

Replying to jomae:

#11134 was closed as duplicate.

However, the patch attached to the other ticket applies to 1.0/1.1 (where query constraints have a different structure).
