saparvia | Hey all, I hacked together a site where you can get a free hosted Mantis bug tracker. Good when your code host does not provide issue tracking. | 03:41 |
---|---|---|
saparvia | Do you think people would be interested in something like this? | 03:41 |
saparvia | http://itsabug.org | 03:41 |
dhx1 | saparvia: nice idea | 04:11 |
dhx1 | saparvia: to give you some more ideas, perhaps create a number of configurations users can choose from | 04:12 |
dhx1 | depending on their development method(s) | 04:13 |
dhx1 | Agile, Waterfall, whatever | 04:13 |
saparvia | dhx1: Hmm... I guess I would have to be familiar with that to be able to make the initial setup :-) | 04:13 |
dhx1 | saparvia: the best thing seems to be "enter your details into just 4 boxes, submit, and away you go" | 04:13 |
dhx1 | saparvia: that's very good usability and if I was interested in setting up a bug tracker, something I'd appreciate when testing what is available | 04:14 |
saparvia | Basically I just make a copy of an existing Mantis install, so it would be trivial to add the functionality to have some preconfigured options. | 04:14 |
saparvia | Less trivial to actually make those configurations | 04:14 |
dhx1 | yep | 04:14 |
dhx1 | right | 04:14 |
saparvia | I also thought about adding option for other bug trackers, but there doesn't seem to be that many good, open source ones | 04:15 |
saparvia | Bugzilla is the other option | 04:15 |
saparvia | Others seem to be updated less frequently | 04:15 |
saparvia | so they might be a security risk | 04:15 |
dhx1 | saparvia: the main ones I'd look at are Redmine, Trac, Bugzilla and MantisBT... I don't see open source projects use other stuff too often | 04:16 |
dhx1 | there is a little bit of a move towards Github's bug tracking system, if basic functionality is all you need | 04:16 |
saparvia | Redmine and Trac are maybe a bit too heavy since they include wiki, code hosting etc. | 04:17 |
saparvia | Would require more server resources | 04:17 |
dhx1 | yep | 04:17 |
saparvia | This is currently running on a cheap VPS | 04:17 |
dhx1 | that's the best way to start out | 04:18 |
dregad | the bug tracking part of trac, is really bare-bones - I dumped it long ago in favor of mantis ;-) | 04:19 |
dregad | @dhx, if you get a chance, please provide your feedback on http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=13406 | 04:20 |
dhx1 | dregad: hi, will do | 04:21 |
dregad | thanks | 04:21 |
dhx1 | I didn't like Trac either | 04:21 |
dregad | IMO the only thing that can compete with mantis is Jira - but it's not free | 04:22 |

saparvia | Mantis can be a bit complicated (since it's also quite powerful). Is there any beginners guide or is the full administration guide the only thing? | 08:00 |
dregad | saparvia, are you volunteering to write (and maintain) a beginner's guide ? :-P | 08:02 |
dregad | to my knowledge, the admin guide is the only thing there is, and it's even not 100% complete or up-to-date | 08:02 |
