This plugin is an answer to issue #2910 : if you accidentally leave an issue while editing it, and if it's very large, it can drive you crazy to lose everything you typed before. There can be at least 2 approaches to avoid losing data this way :
- forbid leaving the page with a javascript warning
- saving drafts periodically so you can find and restore it when you're back on the issue page : this is the method this plugin tries to implement
You can first take a look at general instructions for plugins here.
Then :
- clone this repository in your
plugins/directory ; if you have a doubt you put it at the good level, you can check you have aplugins/redmine_drafts/init.rbfile - run the migrations and copy assets, from your redmine root directory with the command :
RAILS_ENV=production rake redmine:plugins - restart your Redmine instance (depends on how you host it)
| Plugin branch | Redmine Version | Test Status |
|---|---|---|
| master | 4.2.11 |  |
| master | 5.1.2 |  |
| master | master |  |
If you like this plugin, it's a good idea to contribute :
- by giving feed back on what is cool, what should be improved
- by reporting bugs : you can open issues directly on github for the moment
- by forking it and sending pull request if you have a patch or a feature you want to implement
