= Custom Ticket Fields = Trac support adding custom, user-defined, fields to the ticket module. Using custom fields, you can add typed, site-specific, properties to tickets. '''Note: In Trac 0.8, this feature is still experimental.''' == Configuriation == Configuring custom ticket fields is done in the TracIni config file. All field definitions should be under a section named [ticket-custom] in the ini-file. The syntax of each field definition is: {{{ FIELD_NAME = TYPE (FIELD_NAME.OPTION = VALUE) ... }}} Looking at the example below should help explain the syntax. === Available Field Types and Options === * '''text''': A simple (one line) text field. * label: Descriptive label. * value: Default value. * order: Sort order placement. (Determines relative placement in forms.) * '''checkbox''': A boolean value check box. * label: Descriptive label. * value: Default value (0 or 1). * order: Sort order placement. * '''select''': Drop-down select box. Uses a list of values. * options: List of values, separated by '''|''' (vertical pipe). * value: Default value (Item #, starting at 0). * order: Sort order placement. * '''radio''': Radio buttons. Essentially the same as '''select'''. * label: Descriptive label. * options: List of values, separated by '''|''' (vertical pipe). * value: Default value (Item #, starting at 0). * order: Sort order placement. * '''textarea''': Multi-line text area. * label: Descriptive label. * value: Default text. * width: Width in columns. * height: Height in lines. * order: Sort order placement. === Sample Config === {{{ [ticket-custom] test_one = text test_one.label = Just a text box test_two = text test_two.label = Another text-box test_two.value = Just a default value test_three = checkbox test_three.label = Some checkbox test_three.value = 1 test_four = select test_four.label = My selectbox test_four.options = one|two|third option|four test_four.value = 2 test_five = radio test_five.label = Radio buttons are fun test_five.options = uno|dos|tres|cuatro|cinco test_five.value = 1 test_six = textarea test_six.label = This is a large textarea test_six.value = Default text test_six.width = 60 test_six.height = 30 }}} ---- See also: TracTickets, TracIni
