| Summary | 0003828: Triage bidirectional script: Trigger automated phpBB forum thread from MantisBT ticket (and post forum thread back to ticket) | ||||
| Description | Problem: Many users ignore our bugtracker guidelines and post their issues/bugs/features without consulting with the community first. This creates a bittleneck for the triage team and can ultimately lead to 'tracker bloat'. Old Solution: manually copy/paste the ticket info into the forums and then post the thread url back in to ticket. Problem with this method: time consuming, repetitive, leads to burnout New Solution: Thanks to APIs it may be possible to automate this by having a script prompt for a MantisBT ticket number and prompt for what phpBB sub-forum to post the potential discussion thread in to. Then posting back to said ticket what the forum thread URL. | ||||

phpBB Seems that the API is not mature for phpBB (even in v3.2) Using an phpBB extension, this is how we would architect a new post in the forum: https://github.com/GerB/feedpostbot/blob/master/classes/driver.php#L476-L794 Also take a look at https://github.com/eparsons/RESTApiForPhpBB |

Running in to issues posting on the forum again. It was working and I introduced a bug somewhere that I'm debugging so that it works again. |

As we begin the migration to GitHub Issues, at least the Mantis half of this is now redundant. Marking this as #tobeclosed unless @Kunda1 wants to keep it around. |
