- Tags for issues
- Tags for wiki pages
- Accented and non-latin characters supported for tag order
- View, edit and create tag permissions for issues
- Create permission for wiki tags
- Managing tags
- Custom tags and tagging tables (additional_tags and additional_taggings). If a other plugin used tags or tagging tables for issue or wiki tagging, there tags will be migrated automatically
- Based on the very popular acts-as-taggable-on
Other plugins use additional_tags as framework in order to support tags for their entities. At the moment this are:
- redmine_db (db entry tagging)
- redmine_passwords (password tagging)
- redmine_reporting (project tagging)
- redmine_hrm (holiday tagging)
- redmine_servicedesk (contact tagging)
Start using it, too. The example image shows the centralized tag management in the plugin configuration.
- Main reason: a stable tag solution for a current Redmine version is needed - NOW
- Other plugins are no longer maintained or not available on a public community plattform as github or gitlab
- Redmine (core) does not support tags. A feature request for issue tags exists since 2008, see #1448.
- Lots of plugins are using its own tag implementation (redmine_knowledgebase, redmine_contacts, redmine_products, redmine_passwords, redmine_db, ....). A common functional base was required. This plugin closes this gap. It would be great, if other plugins would use
additional_tags
for it.
- Redmine
>= 4.1.0
- Ruby
>= 2.5
- Redmine plugins: additionals
To install stable version of additional_tags, use
cd $REDMINE_ROOT
git clone -b stable https://www.github.com/alphanodes/additionals.git plugins/additionals
git clone -b 1.0.0 https://www.github.com/alphanodes/additional_tags.git plugins/additional_tags
It is also possible to use stable version as a gem package as an alternative. If you want it, add this to your $REDMINE_ROOT/Gemfile.local:
gem 'additional_tags'
At the moment, additionals should be installed before using gem method. In later versions addtionals plugins is usable as gem, too.
If you want to use the latest development version, use
cd $REDMINE_ROOT
git clone https://github.com/alphanodes/additionals.git plugins/additionals
git clone https://github.com/alphanodes/additional_tags.git plugins/additional_tags
bundle install
bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
Make sure you have the latest database structure loaded to the test database:
bundle exec rake db:drop db:create db:migrate RAILS_ENV=test
Run the following command to start tests:
bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:test NAME=additional_tags RAILS_ENV=test
If you use redmine_tags or redmineup_tags you can migrate your tags.
additional_tags
uses its own database tables, to prevent conflicts with other plugins (e.g. redmine_knowledgebase, redmine_contacts, etc)
To migrate your data to additional_tags
use the following steps (order is important):
- Remove plugin directory of your old plugin, e.g plugin/redmine_tags
- Install
additional_tags
as is descript above (this automatically migrate data to new tables)
The old database tables are existing after these steps.
cd $REDMINE_ROOT
bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate NAME=additional_tags VERSION=0 RAILS_ENV=production
rm -rf plugins/additional_tags
