Sorting cards in stacks

Description

This macro [[Cards(...)]] shows a whiteboard containing index cards organized in stacks. Adding new cards interactively by clicking a button, move cards by drag-and-drop and double-click cards for editing, changing color or deleting.

Cards are stored in a new table in the Trac database.

Example

The following code in the Trac wiki page:

[[Cards(stack=todo|wip|done,label=To Do|Work in Progress|Done, width=800)]]

will produce the following capabilities:

Collaboration support

  • Edit conflicts are detected automatically.
  • A refresh button allows manually reloading the cards at any time.
  • The cards are automatically reloaded every ten seconds while they are in view.

  • There is no tracking of users. Everyone with CARDS_ADMIN permission can freely edit any card.

Parameters

  • stack: |-separated list of stack names. (Required)
  • label: |-separated list of stack labels shown instead of the stack names. (Defaults to the stack names.)
  • width: Width of the whiteboard. (Defaults to 400.)
