Add `bug` prefix

[Ryan J Ollos]

Macro looks very useful! bug:#1 is a valid ticket reference (TracLinks): ​trac:browser:tags/trac-1.0.8/trac/ticket/api.py@:456#L453. Would you mind adding it to your tickets_re2?

[lucid]

Sure.

I suppose there's not some existing reusable regex (or API function) in Trac core one can use for this? The closest I could find is ​trac:browser:tags/trac-1.0.8/tracopt/ticket/commit_updater.py@:141#L141 but it's not quite possible to use as is here.

Slightly adapted I could maybe use:

tickets_re = re.compile('(?:#|(?:ticket:|bug:))(\d+)')

What do you think?

[Ryan J Ollos]

Yeah, that looks good. Looking forward, it might be useful to move the ​ticket_reference attribute to the TicketSystem class, though I'm unsure whether it could be used in the IWikiSyntaxProvider implementation.

It's also strange that issue:NNN is allowed as a ticket reference in CommitTicketUpdater, but not as a general wiki syntax, issue:1.

In 14893:

PageTicketsMacro: Support bug: synonym for ticket:.

I opened ​trac:#12192 to discuss this.
