What does everyone else think? +> + +I'm not quite sure it's there yet. There are a bunch of bugs I've got +marked as "beta" that I'd like to see fixed before it's ready for real +use. Hopefully they shouldn't be too tough to fix.

(Having it handle more than one "user" logged in at once.) +> + +That's something I need advice on. Right now CFBE is pretty much only +suitable for local use - you check out whatever you're working on and +use it as a local interface to the bugs in the repository. Change +those, check in, etc. It's effectively just a pretty version of the +command line be tool. + +I haven't used CherryPy's session/authentication support before. This +might be a good time for me to learn. One way it might be able to +handle multiple users hitting a central server: + +* Each user has to register with the server and be approved by an admin. +* Each account would be mapped to a contributor string, the same one +that would show up if you were going to commit to the repository. +* Once you have an account, you'd login to make any changes. + + +Aside from all that, I'm a little fuzzy on how a centralized interface +to a distributed bug tracking system should work. A read-only +interface to a central "main" repository would be easy. Run the +server in read-only mode pointing at the main repository. People can +use it to look at the bugs in the tip of that repository. + +If it's not read-only, what happens when a user changes/adds/whatevers +a bug? Should CFBE commit that change to the repository right then +and there? Should it never commit, just update the bugdir and let the +commits happen manually? + +What happens when you have multiple branches for a repository? Should +there be one CFBE instance for each branch, or a single one that lets +you switch between branches (effectively switching between revisions)? + +Those are the kind of things that don't really apply when CFBE is just +a local interface to a single repository. If anyone has any advice on +how a multi-user interface should work I'd love to hear it! + +-- +Steve Losh +http://stevelosh.com/ + + +_______________________________________________ +Be-devel mailing list +Be-devel@bugseverywhere.org +http://void.printf.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/be-devel diff --git a/.be/bea86499-824e-4e77-b085-2d581fa9ccab/bugs/d9959864-ea91-475a-a075-f39aa6760f98/comments/21c90231-d7f2-49bb-97d9-99e16459d799/values b/.be/bea86499-824e-4e77-b085-2d581fa9ccab/bugs/d9959864-ea91-475a-a075-f39aa6760f98/comments/21c90231-d7f2-49bb-97d9-99e16459d799/values new file mode 100644 index 0000000..fbe6c0e --- /dev/null +++ b/.be/bea86499-824e-4e77-b085-2d581fa9ccab/bugs/d9959864-ea91-475a-a075-f39aa6760f98/comments/21c90231-d7f2-49bb-97d9-99e16459d799/values @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ +Alt-id: <D765386C-4D43-4AE0-83E3-986A1CB4008C@stevelosh.com> + + +Author: Steve Losh <steve@stevelosh.com> + + +Content-type: text/plain + + +Date: Sat, 07 Feb 2009 17:48:06 -0500 + + +In-reply-to: 42d57a41-219f-46db-9fda-21b42351da63 + |
