Customizing Issue Relationships
Author: Victor Boctor
Introduction
Starting Mantis 1.1.0a4, it is possible to add your own custom relationships. In this example, we will add “origin of” and “originates from” relationships.
Customization Steps
Define Constants
Create custom_constant_inc.php in Mantis root folder and add the following code to it:
<?php define( 'BUG_CUSTOM_RELATIONSHIP_ORIGIN_OF', 99 ); define( 'BUG_CUSTOM_RELATIONSHIP_ORIGINATES_FROM', 98 ); ?>
Define Relationship Metadata
Create custom_relationships_inc.php in Mantis root folder and add the following code to it:
<?php $g_relationships[ BUG_CUSTOM_RELATIONSHIP_ORIGIN_OF ] = array( '#forward' => true, '#complementary' => BUG_CUSTOM_RELATIONSHIP_ORIGINATES_FROM, '#description' => 'rel_origin_of', '#notify_added' => 'email_notification_title_for_action_origin_of_relationship_added', '#notify_deleted' => 'email_notification_title_for_action_origin_of_relationship_deleted', '#edge_style' => array ( 'style' => 'dashed','color' => '808080' ), ); $g_relationships[ BUG_CUSTOM_RELATIONSHIP_ORIGINATES_FROM ] = array( '#forward' => false, '#complementary' => BUG_CUSTOM_RELATIONSHIP_ORIGIN_OF, '#description' => 'rel_originates_from', '#notify_added' => 'email_notification_title_for_action_originates_from_relationship_added', '#notify_deleted' => 'email_notification_title_for_action_originates_from_relationship_deleted', '#edge_style' => array ( 'style' => 'dashed','color' => '808080' ), ); ?>
Define Custom Strings
Create custom_strings_inc.php in Mantis root folder and add the following code to it:
<?php $s_rel_origin_of = 'origin of'; $s_rel_originates_from = 'originates from'; $s_email_notification_title_for_action_origin_of_relationship_added = 'Origin-Of Relationship Added'; $s_email_notification_title_for_action_origin_of_relationship_deleted = 'Origin-Of Relationship Deleted'; $s_email_notification_title_for_action_originates_from_relationship_added = 'Originates-From Relationship Added'; $s_email_notification_title_for_action_originates_from_relationship_deleted = 'Originates-From Relationship Deleted'; ?>
