Re: [Trac] Trac Versioned Documents
Hi Ryan, We use this plugin in our software ecosystem [1]. You have some screenshots available [2]. We tested the plugin with Alfresco. This plugin can be used by non-software engineers. ;) Regards, [1] http://clinker.klicap.es/projects/clinker [2] http://www.flickr.com/photos/klicap/sets/72157624100604196 2010/8/13 Ryan J Ollos ry...@physiosonics.com: Manuel Jesús Recena Soto-2 wrote: Hi Mathew: Maybe CMIS Trac Plugin [1] can help you.

There is a wiki command for linking to SVN controlled files. This is the way to go, indeed. Recently I've tried some other approaches . In my case many documents (e.g. use cases , specs , ...) were stored in an MS VSS repository (which lead many problems , PITAs ...) . Someone migrated those documents to the wiki (some are just WikiFormatting , some others have embedded LaTeX statements) . We use built-in WikiSystem version tracking . I implemented TracBasicMacros plugin to embed auto-magically information and wiki history in those pages. Finally we deployed TracWikiPrint to download those files in PDF format as well as two other plugin to download them in LaTeX , ODF, DOC format . This way collaborative as well as private edits are possible (which was a req for dev teams ;o) . We also use Graphviz , FreeMind , and other plugins . In all cases the pages are rendered OK . Surely there are many more things to improve, with time they will come ;o). -- Regards, Olemis.

AFAICS this looks very similar to Sharepoint CMS (i.e. document libraries contain only have one copy of documents, each having it's own history with major minor version numbers and -MS Office files- may be edited directly from web page and updated auto-magically via WebDav , ...) . The fact is that Trac isn't exactly a CMS . It's possible to implement such extension on top of it but it's not a trivial task . OTOH , TracCMIS plugin offers some kind of integration for CMS implementing CMIS standard , so you could deploy a CMS together with Trac and integrate both (like someone said once es_ES «zapatero a tus zapatos» ...) .

Re: [Trac] Trac Versioned Documents
Hi Matt. Why don't you put those documents under SVN (sub-version) version control instead of attachhing them to the wiki page. There is a wiki command for linking to SVN controlled files. Link to an attached file of a wiki page: attachment:my_doc.pdf Link to a SVN version controlled file: source:path/my_doc.pdf or even source:path/my_doc@123 where 123 is the version number. Of course this needs a SVN server. But Trac is made to cooperate tightly with SVN.

There is a wiki command for linking to SVN controlled files. This is the way to go, indeed. It would be nice, however, to have a Trac plugin to do an SVN commit, at least to checkin a new version of an existing file. This has been discussed multiple times, but nobody so far stepped forward with an implementation, AFAIK. Without such a plugin users have to have an SVN client, which can be a problem in some cases (e.g. if you are in a company with a paranoid policy about which software is allowed on desktop PCs etc.). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Trac Users group.

Re: [Trac] Trac Versioned Documents
This is not something Trac is really built for, and making a document control system plugin would be quite an undertaking. On the other hand, why not just make each document into a wiki page? If that isn't an option, your next best bet is to use a real version control tool like Subversion, Mercurial, or Git. --Noah On Aug 4, 2010, at 8:44 PM, Mathew Phillips wrote: I've searched the Trac Hacks and the normal Trac plugin site and I can't quite seem to find a plugin that meets what I'm looking for.
