| 20 ''' Roundup - issue tracking for knowledge workers. | |
| 21 | |
| 22 This is a simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with | |
| 23 command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. | |
| 24 | |
| 25 Roundup manages a number of issues (with properties such as | |
| 26 "description", "priority", and so on) and provides the ability to (a) submit | |
| 27 new issues, (b) find and edit existing issues, and (c) discuss issues with | |
| 28 other participants. The system will facilitate communication among the | |
| 29 participants by managing discussions and notifying interested parties when | |
| 30 issues are edited. | |
| 31 | |
| 32 Roundup's structure is that of a cake:: | |
| 33 | |
| 34 _________________________________________________________________________ | |
| 35 | E-mail Client | Web Browser | Detector Scripts | Shell | | |
| 36 |------------------+-----------------+----------------------+-------------| | |
| 37 | E-mail User | Web User | Detector | Command | | |
| 38 |-------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |
| 39 | Roundup Database Layer | | |
| 40 |-------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |
| 41 | Hyperdatabase Layer | | |
| 42 |-------------------------------------------------------------------------| | |
| 43 | Storage Layer | | |
| 44 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| 45 | |
| 46 The first layer represents the users (chocolate). | |
| 47 The second layer is the Roundup interface to the users (vanilla). | |
| 48 The third and fourth layers are the internal Roundup database storage | |
| 49 mechanisms (strawberry). | |
| 50 The final, lowest layer is the underlying database storage (rum). | |
| 51 | |
| 52 These are implemented in the code in the following manner:: | |
| 53 | |
| 54 E-mail User: roundup-mailgw and roundup.mailgw | |
| 55 Web User: cgi-bin/roundup.cgi or roundup-server over | |
| 56 roundup.cgi.client and roundup.cgi.template | |
| 57 Detector: roundup.roundupdb and templates/<template>/detectors | |
| 58 Command: roundup-admin | |
| 59 Roundup DB: roundup.roundupdb | |
| 60 Hyper DB: roundup.hyperdb, roundup.date | |
| 61 Storage: roundup.backends.* | |
| 62 | |
| 63 Additionally, there is a directory of unit tests in "test". | |
| 64 | |
| 65 For more information, see the original overview and specification documents | |
| 66 written by Ka-Ping Yee in the "doc" directory. If nothing else, it has a | |
| 67 much prettier cake :) | |
