/redmine_hoptoad_server

This plugin turns Redmine (http://redmine.org) into a Hoptoad server, i.e. an API provider which can be used with the hoptoad_notifier which is available at: http://www.hoptoadapp.com/.

Primary LanguageRuby

= hoptoad_server

This is a simple Redmine plugin that makes Redmine act like a Hoptoad server. All exceptions caught and sent by HoptoadNotifier will create or update an Issue in Redmine.

= Installation & Configuration

Just install the Plugin following the general Redmine plugin installation instructions at http://www.redmine.org/wiki/redmine/Plugins.

Then, go to Administration -> Settings -> Incoming emails in your Redmine and generate an API key.

Now, download and install the HoptoadNotifier following the excellent instructions on their github page http://github.com/thoughtbot/hoptoad_notifier.

When it comes to creating your config/initializers/hoptoad.rb file, deviate from the standard and put in something like this:

HoptoadNotifier.configure do |config|
  config.api_key = {:project => 'my_redmine_project_identifier', # the identifier you specified for your project in Redmine
                    :tracker => 'Bug',                           # the name of your Tracker of choice in Redmine
                    :api_key => 'my_redmine_api_key',            # the key you generated before in Redmine (NOT YOUR HOPTOAD API KEY!)
                    :category => 'Development',                  # the name of a ticket category (optional.)
                    :assigned_to => 'admin',					 # the login of a user the ticket should get assigned to by default (optional.)
                    :priority => 5								 # the default priority (use a number, not a name. optional.)
				   }.to_yaml
  config.host = 'my_redmine_host.com'							 # the hostname your Redmine runs at
  config.port = 443												 # the port your Redmine runs at		
end

You're done. You can start receiving your Exceptions in Redmine!
