Redmine

I would like to propose another idea.

In my opinion, if I am user, I would like to choose from some pattern rule setting(about role, status, flow...etc).

Example, some user make rule about A project.
If our product same about that project, I would like to use that rule setting of that project.

But morioka's proposal is only redmine default setting.

So I want below function.

• Upload about rule setting
• Choose rule setting
• Setting about rule

How about?

I think GUI screens, shown above, are out of the scope of this task. The current way of Redmine to load default data is a rake task. In addition, this task will not re-populate the database, if there is already data inside (prevents running the data loading twice). So loading new data from the GUI will be pretty difficult, if not impossible to implement - reaching this stage of install (GUI) mean the database is already populated.
What I think should be done is adding an additional parameter to the rake task (similar to current rake redmine:plugins tasks). For example (parameter name can have different name):

bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data REDMINE_LANG=ja REDMINE_PACK=/path/to/pack.yml

pack.yml config file should describe the required data - Tracker, Query etc. File format TBD.

The rake task, mentioned above ( lib/tasks/load_default_data.rake ) in turn is using Redmine::DefaultData::Loader.load(lang=nil, options={}) method ( lib/redmine/default_data/loader.rb ) , which already accepts additional options (only workflow in the moment), so processing additional options for different install packs should be not so difficult to implement.
