Knowledgebase Plugin
Added by Alex Bevilacqua over 14 years ago
Please don't report issues here; use https://github.com/alexbevi/redmine_knowledgebase¶
Where I work, there has been a need for a knowledgebase solution that was (a) robust, (b) integrated with our project management solution, and (c) ... free.
Since we use Redmine internally, it made sense to build this functionality on top of the existing platform. Most of what you can accomplish through a knowledgebase, you can accomplish through a wiki, but our users were looking for a hierarchical system that would track page views, rankings and be fully searchable.
The system I've written isn't really there yet, but it's a work in progress I'd like to present to the community on the off chance that someone else finds it useful.
There's still quite a bit to do, but open source development is more fun when done in the open :)

hi@all,
is there any way to make some articles only accessible to some users? For example an article that can only be accessed by a role called "admins". I think it would be an good idea to add an check box which declares that this is an article written only for admins and a new permission that decides if an user is allowed to view this kind of articles or not. I already managed to create this check box and it's working but how can i create this new permission?
Regards,
Benjah

For testing purposes, I updated project_id in the kb_articles table. My user has admin rights which means I may access the project ( I used id 1 btw), but the search fails with http error 500 :-(
Any ideas?

hi,
the following line contains the relevant info:
ActionView::TemplateError (No route matches {:controller=>"articles", :action=>"show", :article_id=>4, :id=>nil}) on line #32 of app/views/search/index.html.erb:
you should add a route to your routes.rb like:
match '/articles/show', :to => 'articles#show', :via => [:get, :post]
the :get, :post is only an example, you should modify it to your needs, but for now it will work i think ;)

Hi Christian,
thank you for the suggestion but this doesn't work:
Erorrmessage: "undefined method `match' for main:Object"
All other entries in that file begin with map.xxx...
Any idea?

I tried re-adding the default route, but that doesn't work either...map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
Edit: Didn't know that redmine had to be restarted.
I now have map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
as the first linke in /redmine/vendor/plugins/redmine_knowledgebase/config/routes.rb and that does the trick...
Edit 2: This breaks lots of other things, wiki and issues for example:¶

I think I figured it out...
I put this line into my redmine_knowledgebase/config/routes.rb:
map.connect "/knowledgebase/articles/:article_id", :controller => "articles", :action => "show", :conditions => { :method => [:get, :post] }
I verified that I had set the project_id column of kb_articles to default to 1 (our "master-project"), and not the search is working like it's supposed to :-)

Howdy all.
I keep forgetting about this board, but I've updated the plugin for 1.4.x and 2.0.x compatibility.
https://github.com/alexbevi/redmine_knowledgebase
If there are any issues (which i'm sure there will be for the 2.x branch), please report them on the github page as i tend to check that far more often.

Version 1.x isn't really supported anymore, but you could try changing labelled_form_for to labelled_tabular_form_for
If that works, let me know ;)

Does the "acts_as_viewed" function have some problem? Why the the viewing table only records the log of creating an article, the view action can not be recorded? So it results that any article in the knowledgebase shows like "Viewed once" although it has been viewed many times?

And could you please tell me how to change the plugin code if i use the proxy server to access the redmine, because i found the IP address in table "viewings" are all 127.0.0.1. I think i resulted by proxy server, i need the plugin to record the real client IP address even i use the proxy server to access

why the function rated_by didn't be used in the plugin? in current source, there is only the definition, but not used by other functions.
def rated_by? rater
rating_class = acts_as_rated_options[:rating_class].constantize
if !(acts_as_rated_options[:rater_class].constantize === rater)
raise RateError, "The rater object must be the one used when defining acts_as_rated (or a descendent of it). other objects are not acceptable"
end
raise RateError, "Rater must be a valid and existing object" if rater.nil? || rater.id.nil?
raise RateError, 'Rater must be a valid rater' if !rating_class.column_names.include? "rater_id"
ratings.count(:conditions => ['rater_id = ?', rater.id]) > 0
end
It results one guys could rate a article more than one time.
