Redmine Project Setup
Version 2 (Redmine Admin, 05/05/2012 03:10 PM) → Version 3/6 (Redmine Admin, 05/05/2012 03:12 PM)
h1. Redmine Project Setup
h2. "Mailing List" and "Project Info" tabs
The solution I found is not perfect, as it needs some manual setup, but it is relatively simple:
* I installed the 'embedded' plugin for redmine, which allows to define a new project tab
* in the plugin config, the tab name is set to 'Mailing List', and the tab content points to /var/www/redmine/doc/details/{PROJECT}/
* for each project, one needs to create that directory, and in there have an index.html like this one for the saga-wg:
<pre>
root@ogfapp:/var/www/redmine/doc/details/saga-wg# cat index.html
<iframe width="100%" height='2000' scrolling="no" frameborder='no' src="http://www.ogf.org/mailman/listinfo/saga-core-wg"></iframe></pre>
which gets the respective mailman page displayed in an iframe on that tab.
I have a similar solution for the project info: there is a 'tab' plugin which provides an additional tab per project. For each project which enables that plugin, the project settings have an additional key 'ProjectInfo', which can be defined by the project. For the saga-wg again, that is for example set to
<pre>
<iframe width="100%" height='2000' scrolling="no" frameborder='no' src="http://www.ogf.org/gf/group_info/view_bare.php?group=saga-wg"></iframe>
</pre>
and you can probably guess what that shows :-)
Projects which do not have a mailing list, or which do not want to show separate project info, should disable the respective modules in the project settings.
I did not find a way to do both tabs with a single module, but if the above scheme proves to be too limited, I'll try to expand the tab embedded plugin to serve our needs.
