libredmine

A python library and command line client for interfacing with the Redmine project management web application

about

Very early stages now... mostly ideas like this:

09:21 <phinze> i'm specing out a command line client tentatively called 'rdm'
that mostly mirrors svn and allows you to check on your tickets and hopefully
eventually edit them

09:21 <phinze> i'd like to see something that throws you into $EDITOR with a
template that you change and then parses it out and sends it back to the webapp

Mostly, the plan for this project consists of two parts:

libredmine

a python abstraction of an instance of Redmine with a www-mechanize backend

rdm

a command-line client for interfacing with Redmine that leverages the python library

TODO

libredmine

• Ability to sort Issues by Multiple Keys: project, priority, status, etc.
• Write back to server updated tickets?

rdm client

• Stay alive to store password and fetch again?
• Keep a cache in a tmp file and only update from site periodically?
• Come up with a draft CLI... rdm [command] perhaps?
