Description Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2006-05-24 17:48:20 EDT 
If form based editor or new issue wizard is not awailable, 3rd party providers such as Jira should be able to use web based UI to add issues.
Comment 1 Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2006-05-24 18:11:32 EDT 
Should clarify that this is about "New repository task" wizard.
Comment 2 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-05-29 19:38:05 EDT 
Good idea.  I never liked how JIRA was just absent from that list, and all we need is a URL.

Isn't it obvious one? Mylar already had feature to open Jira query in the broser...

Hook to web-based UI for creating Jira tasks

This is a clone of wizard from web-based provider for adding Jira tasks using Jira web UI. I tried it for codehaus and spring jiras. http://jira.codehaus.org/ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/spring/ as well as http://developer.atlassian.com/jira/

Nice.  Patch applied.  Next week let's figure out if we should get rid of that page, or if the prompt is actually helpful.  Once the Generic Web stuff is solid it may also make sense to have this extend it.
Comment 7 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-06-16 22:27:09 EDT 
OK, so I lied and maybe I will mark some of your stuff completed ;)

I think it would make sense to expose something like getNewTaskUrl(repository) method on connector class, so it could be used instead of new task wizard.

BTW, I noticed that init() method is not being called on all the wizards, so they can't use context from the current selection.
Comment 9 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-06-19 19:34:40 EDT 
Maybe we should add an IWebUiHandler to the connectors?  That would make implementing that optional, but it means that Bugzilla and others could offer both web and integrated capabilities while making them optional.
