Running Traq 0.6(.1) and want to convert to Traq 2.0? Well the migration system is almost stable.
Once Traq 2.0 hits beta, I will work the kinks out of the migration system and have it up available for download.
Beta phase
In a week or so, Traq 2.0 Beta 1 will be available, this means no more new features than the ones already on the 2.0 milestone will be added.
All feature request tickets created for now on will be moved to the 2.1 milestone.
Traq 2.0 Alpha 3
Traq 2.0 Alpha 3 is available for download, This should be the last alpha release for 2.0.
You can download Alpha 3 from the main download page at http://traqproject.org/downloads.html
Notifications
Just 2 more little things and Notifications will be done!, all that’s left is notification when milestones are marked complete.
The notification system is pretty simple right now and will be enhanced later on to support options, such as:
“Only notify me when a ticket with [XXX] [severity/status/etc] is created”.
Wiki!
Yes, finally, a Wiki for Traq!
I was a little bored and thought about adding a page system for projects, and figured I’d call it a wiki.
The only “real wiki” syntax it supports is the [[WikiPage]] and [[WikiPage|Label]] links, but uses the formattext() function to format the page text, so it’s easy to add more.
Note to self: Learn to test
So after running the migration script on the official Traq installation twice, I really need to learn to test things better, or in this case make sure all the data has moved over correctly.
Anyway, Once I get around to splitting the Migration system from the upgrade files I will release it for testing.
Upgrade System
Well I just spent a good few hours working on the Upgrade System for Traq 2.0, I originally planned on getting some sleep but something pushed me to get it started, and then I decided to finish it.
So the Upgrade and Migration stuff is finished, way before I had even planned to have it finished. Just not pushed to the repository yet, why? Well I’m undecided if I want to have the migration system be apart of the Upgrade files. I mean its only going to be used once and that’s if they are upgrading from an old version.
I was thinking of separating the two and having the upgrade system for the small database changes, and have a separate script that people can download to migrate from one version to another when there are major database changes.
I’m leaning to the downloadable migration script at the moment.
Traq 2.0 Alpha 2
Traq 2.0 Alpha 2 is now available for download.
You can download Alpha 2 from the downloads page on the main website at http://traqproject.org/downloads.html
Traq 2.0 Alpha 1
Alpha 1 has been released and is available for download and testing, you can find the alpha release on the Traq Downloads page under the unstable releases section.
Traq 2.0 Status
Traq 2.0 is almost ready for alpha testing, there’s just a few more things that need to be done.
Not everything will be complete and working in the alpha release(s), like the upgrade system for example.
All alpha releases of Traq 2.0 will not contain an upgrade file, I won’t want to be adding a whole bunch of lines and queries to the upgrade file that won’t be used.
I will make an announcement when the first alpha release is available, until then check out the forums.
