wiki integration

Post by somaraman »

Hi,

I would like to know the use of wiki integration with mantis. We have description, comment and attachment columns along with bugs. Other than a guide what is wiki used for?
Thanks!

The Wiki allows per project and per issue documentation that complements the data in Mantis. For example, we a feature request is submitted, a developer may go ahead and design the feature in the associated wiki. The developer may then get some design review comments in Mantis and consolidate them all in the latest version of the associated Wiki page. Once done, th wiki page provides a valuable easier to read design for the feature being developed. The aim of the wiki is to replace standalone design documents and documentations for agile teams.

I'd like to add TWiki support for Mantis. How hard would it be to base it off the existing supported wikis? All I'd really need is to make a core/wiki_twiki_api.php, and define the wiki_twiki_* functions, and pass "twiki" as a supported engine in config_inc.php, yes?
