Change format of Custom Field

Added by Arin Lipman over 10 years ago

Hey Y'all,
I've built a custom field plugin for my organization, but we had already created (and have used) a custom field. It appears that I can't change the format in the custom fields edit screen. Is it possible to manually change it somewhere? The format created in my plugin is the same type, but has a different presentation (it turns the value into a link to another internal system), so I'm not worried about any data conversion.

Thanks!
Arin

I was able to resolve this issue, but now I'm realizing that I can't see the values from my custom field in the issue query. Am I missing a function in my class?

Here is the code for the class:

class FooCustomFieldFormat < Redmine::CustomFieldFormat
  include ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper
  include ActionView::Helpers::TagHelper

  def format_as_foo(value)
    ActionController::Base.helpers.link_to(value, "http://foo?case="+ value, :target => 'blank')
  end

  def escape_html?
    false
  end

  def edit_as
   "integer" 
  end
end
