Add a "My Tickets" report to the Django Trac

[Markus Amalthea Magnuson]

The default Trac installation has a ​reports feature, with some useful standard reports, such as "My Tickets".

The Django installation of Trac has removed these reports in favor of a wiki page with searches, called reports.

I have not found an obvious and easy way to list all my tickets (i.e. assigned to me, for example) which makes it unnecessarily time-consuming to get such a list of tickets.

There should be an easy "My Tickets" view, with a link from some easy-to-find place, preferably in the menu inbetween "Reports" and "View Tickets".

(For now, I've bookmarked a custom query searching my username, unfortunately it's not reusable since there's no "me" user or similar.)

The old style reports you're talking about are deprecated, I'm not even sure they still exist in Trac 1.0.

You can use $USER instead of your username to make your link reusable.

Nice hidden feature :)

I think we should add a section to https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/Reports with a few links to "My Tickets"-like searches. Maybe even as second section on the page, after "Reports" and before "New contributors".

Something like:

Your tickets

These links will list all tickets associated with you, and can be bookmarked for easy reference:

• Tickets owned by me (include closed tickets)
• Tickets reported by me (include closed tickets)
• Tickets owned or reported by me (include closed tickets)

Is it possible to list tickets I have commented on, preferably in "when commented" order. That would be extremely useful to me.

[Markus Amalthea Magnuson]

I've actually searched for such a feature the last hour, but there doesn't seem to be one. There's at least one ticket for it though: ​http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/7660

A workaround is to search on CC includes e-mail (entering your e-mail address) given that you have added yourself to the CC list when commenting.

Unfortunately, you are not added to the CC list automatically when commenting on a ticket, so this method is imperfect in that you will have to remember to check the CC box when commenting.

Also, no dynamic e-mail variable exists (like $USER).

What do you think about the idea to add some such predefined links to the wiki page? (See comment:2)

[Russell Keith-Magee]

Accepting the broad feature request that we need better tools for users to find their own tickets of interest (ones they have reported, ones they have responded to, and so on).

[Markus Amalthea Magnuson]

Any thoughts on this yet? My proposed change to the wiki page (in comment:2) would help quite a bit until something more thorough is in place.

[Markus Amalthea Magnuson]

Anyone? I'm proposing a simple addition of a few links to the wiki.

[Tim Graham]

I've added those links to the wiki page, thank-you.

[Markus Amalthea Magnuson]

Cool, thanks :)

Just noticed though that the last two links are incorrect and needs to be modified. These are the correct ones:

• Tickets owned or reported by me (include closed tickets)

[Tim Graham]

Updated.
