XML-RPC Client for Mantis / dotProject Module

I posted this on the dotProject forums as well, but thought there may be some interest here too. My group and I have created an XML-RPC interface to talk to Mantis' core API's. On top of that XML-RPC interface, we created a module to integrate bug tracking into dotProject, an open-source project management tool.

We recently released the code as open source and would welcome anyone to take a look at it. Here are some posts we made about it...

And finally, to download the whole module (XML-RPC interface included), you can go here:

This sounds interesting. I believe there may be another integration between dotProject and Mantis, but I like the fact that this is done using RPC and hence they don't have to live on the same server.

I couldn't find the location from which this stuff can be downloaded. I'm interested to check out the XML-RPC.

Regards,
Victor.

Hello all,

When looking for something to solve this DotProject Mantis Integration issue, i came accross several modules, but none that were under a truly free license, or else i could not figure out where to download from.

Only this RPC one is under a true OpenSource license.

Thanks for the great work you guys, I will now install and test, and if i run accross any contributions expect them back in the project.:wink:

Does anyone know any other Mantis DotProject Integration modules that are available under an open source license???

Thank you for this great module!!! :D

Peace,

federico vela

Federico,
there is at least one which is also based upon a free license, just go to http://www.dotproject.net/vbulletin/sho ... php?t=4614.
This module was created by myself.
Actually i very much liked the RPC solution but there was little response on the last issues reported by myself and others. Now this may be cause of vacations, so hopefully supports picks up again.


Cas

Thank you!

Thank you cas,

I had found the NUY website before, but kept getting a 404 when downloading from the quick links.

I created an account and all went fine.

Just installed it... will test it.

Thank you very much for this wonderful contribution! :D
