Time Tracking
Introduction
This is currently a work in progress. It will be updated as and when I get time or the checked in code's functionally changes.
Configuration Options
Currently the configuration options only exists in config_defaults_inc.php
.
g_time_tracking_enabled
Turns Time Tracking features on or off
g_time_tracking_hours
When single numbers are entered decide if they are hours or minutes. This option will disappear in the next release as all numbers entered will be minutes.
g_time_tracking_with_billing
Adds calculation links to workout how much time has been spent between a particular time frame. Currently it will allow you to enter a cost/hour and will work out some billing information. This will become more extensive in the future. Currently it is more of a proof of concept.
g_time_tracking_stopwatch
Instead of a text field turning this option on places a stopwatch on the page with “Start/Stop” and “Reset” buttons next to it. You must have g_use_javascript switched on for this to take effect. A bit gimickie, but who cares.
Database
The time tracking information is attached to a bugnote. Currently it is using a MySQL TIME column in the database to hold the time component. The current schema does not contain any reference to this as it is still exprimental. To add the column:
ALTER TABLE bugnote_table ADD COLUMN time_tracking TIME DEFAULT 0;
This will be changing to an integer for better database mirgration.
