| + | |||
| + | === RPC interface === | ||
| + | Launchpad offers a rpc-api through xmlrpc.launchpad.net/bugs/ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Python example of usage: | ||
| + | <code python> | ||
| + | from xmlrpclib import ServerProxy | ||
| + | |||
| + | s = ServerProxy("https://kristian.klette@uninett.no:notmyrealpassword@xmlrpc.launchpad.net/bugs/") | ||
| + | s.filebug(dict( | ||
| + | product="nav", | ||
| + | summary="Netmap crashes on solaris", | ||
| + | comment="The new netmap crashes on my solaris box")) | ||
| + | |||
| + | >> 'http://launchpad.net/bugs/xxx' | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | This enables us to have easy tools on a console level for reporting bugs, and maybe in the future even have automated bug reporting on crashes from nav. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Code hosting === | ||
| + | Launchpad.net offers code-hosting of tarballs. It also supports mirroring of bzr-branches and svn-branches, but neither of these | ||
| + | apply to us, as we use mercurial. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Task management === | ||
| + | Task management in launchpad are provided through "blueprints". Each blueprint has their own page, and can be assigned to people. | ||
| + | These features seem to cover all our task-needs | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Price === | ||
| + | Launchpad.net is closed source, so we cannot make changes to how things are done ourself. The service is free of charge, and they say they | ||
| + | have a long term goal of becoming open source. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Trac ==== | ||
| + | Trac is a multipurpose software management system written in python under the BSD lisence. | ||
| + | Its still under active development, and has a variety of plugins available. Trac is well tested and used by | ||
| + | many large software projects. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Web interface === | ||
| + | == Reporting bugs == | ||
| + | For a logged in users, reporting a bug is done i 2 mouse clicks. Very nice! | ||
| + | Trac does not check for duplicate reports though | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Managing bugs == | ||
| + | Searching for a bug, entering it and changing it is done 3 mouse clicks. Though with quite a bit of scrolling on the bug page itself on smaller screens. (Tested in 1280x800) | ||
