| 2910 | 68 section "ConfigParser -- Configuration file parser": |
| 69 | |
| 70 The configuration file consists of sections, led by a "[section]" header | |
| 71 and followed by "name = value" entries, with line continuations on a | |
| 72 newline with leading whitespace. Note that leading whitespace is removed | |
| 73 from values. The optional values can contain format strings which | |
| 74 refer to other values in the same section. Lines beginning with "#" or ";" | |
| 75 are ignored and may be used to provide comments. | |

| 182 be either absolute or relative to the directory containig this config file. | |
| 183 | |
| 184 filename -- default *blank* | |
| 185 Log file name for minimal logging facility built into Roundup. If no file | |

| 207 If username is not empty, password (below) MUST be set! | |
| 208 | |

| 216 Allowed values: ``yes``, ``no`` | |
| 217 | |
| 218 tls_keyfile -- default *blank* | |
| 219 If TLS is used, you may set this option to the name of a PEM formatted | |
| 220 file that contains your private key. The path may be either absolute or | |
| 221 relative to the directory containig this config file. | |
| 222 | |

| 226 to the directory containig this config file. | |
| 227 | |
| 228 charset -- utf-8 | |
| 229 Character set to encode email headers with. We use utf-8 by default, as | |
| 230 it's the most flexible. Some mail readers (eg. Eudora) can't cope with | |
| 231 that, so you might need to specify a more limited character set | |
| 232 (eg. iso-8859-1). | |
| 233 | |
| 234 debug -- default *blank* | |
| 235 Setting this option makes Roundup to write all outgoing email messages | |
| 236 to this file *instead* of sending them. This option has the same effect | |
| 237 as environment variable SENDMAILDEBUG. Environment variable takes | |
| 238 precedence. The path may be either absolute or relative to the directory | |
| 239 containig this config file. | |
| 240 | |

| 247 Allowed values: ``yes``, ``no`` | |
| 248 | |
| 249 leave_body_unchanged -- ``no`` | |

393 Various parts of Roundup require these properties. Don't remove them. |
| 1832 | 394 |
| 395 **Change the type of a property** | |
| 396 Property types must *never* be changed - the database simply doesn't take | |
| 397 this kind of action into account. Note that you can't just remove a | |
| 398 property and re-add it as a new type either. If you wanted to make the | |
| 399 assignedto property a Multilink, you'd need to create a new property | |
| 400 assignedto_list and remove the old assignedto property. | |
| 401 | |
| 402 | |
| 403 What you can do to the schema | |
| 404 ----------------------------- | |
| 405 | |
| 406 Your schema may be changed at any time before or after the tracker has been | |
| 407 initialised (or used). You may: | |
| 408 | |
| 409 **Add new properties to classes, or add whole new classes** | |
| 410 This is painless and easy to do - there are generally no repurcussions | |
| 411 from adding new information to a tracker's schema. | |
| 412 | |
| 413 **Remove properties** | |
| 414 Removing properties is a little more tricky - you need to make sure that | |
| 415 the property is no longer used in the `web interface`_ *or* by the | |
| 416 detectors_. | |

| 636 Auditors are called with the arguments:: | |

| 638 audit(db, cl, itemid, newdata) | |
| 639 | |
| 640 where ``db`` is the database, ``cl`` is an instance of Class or | |
| 641 IssueClass within the database, and ``newdata`` is a dictionary mapping | |
| 642 property names to values. | |
| 643 | |
| 644 For a ``create()`` operation, the ``itemid`` argument is None and | |
| 645 newdata contains all of the initial property values with which the item | |
| 646 is about to be created. | |
| 647 | |
| 648 For a ``set()`` operation, newdata contains only the names and values of | |
| 649 properties that are about to be changed. | |
| 650 | |
| 651 For a ``retire()`` or ``restore()`` operation, newdata is None. | |
| 652 | |
| 653 Reactors are called with the arguments:: | |
| 654 | |
| 655 react(db, cl, itemid, olddata) | |
| 656 | |
| 657 where ``db`` is the database, ``cl`` is an instance of Class or | |
| 658 IssueClass within the database, and ``olddata`` is a dictionary mapping | |
| 659 property names to values. | |
| 660 | |
| 661 For a ``create()`` operation, the ``itemid`` argument is the id of the | |
| 662 newly-created item and ``olddata`` is None. | |
| 663 | |
| 664 For a ``set()`` operation, ``olddata`` contains the names and previous | |
| 665 values of properties that were changed. | |

2125 The form variable is a bit special because it's actually a python |
| 1142 | 2126 FieldStorage object. That means that you have two ways to access its |
| 2127 contents. For example, to look up the CGI form value for the variable | |
| 2128 "name", use the path expression:: | |
| 2129 | |
| 2130 request/form/name/value | |
| 2131 | |
| 2132 or the python expression:: | |
| 2133 | |
| 2134 python:request.form['name'].value | |

| 2679 -------------------------------------------- | |
| 2680 | |
| 2681 The web interface uses UTF-8 default. It may be overridden in both forms | |
| 2682 and a browser cookie. | |
| 2683 | |
| 2684 - In forms, use the ``@charset`` variable. | |
| 2685 - To use the cookie override, have the ``roundup_charset`` cookie set. | |
| 2686 | |
| 2687 In both cases, the value is a valid charset name (eg. ``utf-8`` or | |
| 2688 ``kio8-r``). | |
| 2689 | |
| 2690 Inside Roundup, all strings are stored and processed in utf-8. | |
