Mantis Integration with Twitter

Post by **vboctor** » 02 Jul 2007, 08:58

Mantis now has a twitter account ( http://twitter.com/mantisbt ) which will be used to publish updates relating to what is happening with Mantis. I've just updated the official bug tracker with the latest code from CVS which also integrates the ability for the bug tracker to automatically update a nominated twitter account with resolved bugs.

In addition to the ones posted by the bug tracker, I'll try to get into the habit of manual posting entries that may be interesting for the Mantis audience.

So go ahead and add 'mantisbt' twitter account as your friend in twitter.

The integration currently support posting updates when an issue is resolved as fixed. I would like to get feedback on how users would like to see such Mantis/Twitter integration enhanced. Since the infrastructure is now established, it shouldn't be too hard to add more updates and to make the text in such updates customization through custom functions.

I've just added support for auto-generation of twitter updates when Mantis News is posted.
