Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
Hi Alex,
The location path is /html/Callbacks/MyRT/Elements/RT__Ticket/ColumnMap/Once
In the Once file I have contains this:
%init
$COLUMN_MAP-{DifferenceReopenedTime} = {
title = 'Reopened', # loc
attribute = 'Reopened',
value = sub {
return 'THIS WORKS';
}
};
/%init
%args

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
I believe that you need to use Reopened in your search and the
BuildFormatString/Default callback, not DifferenceReopenedTime as you
currently have.

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
Hi Alex, I made that change, restarted apache and cleared the cache on my browser but still nothing after several attempts. Its like its not calling my column map or something. The name of the field stayed as Difference Reopened Time in my search. I thought that it should have changed to Reopened. I tried looking for a field called reopen however, there was none. -- View this message in context: http://requesttracker.8502.n7.nabble.com/Add-Time-difference-in-search-result-tp58100p58143.html Sent from the Request Tracker - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- RT Training - Boston, September 9-10 http://bestpractical.com/training

Be sure to clear the server-based Mason cache before restarting the web server: http://requesttracker.wikia.com/wiki/CleanMasonCache as your changes to those files otherwise won't be visible to RT.

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
I suspect that maybe you haven't restarted the web server after clearing the Mason cache. Give that a shot; if no luck, errors should be making their way to the log.

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
Okay, I understand now: you want to track when a ticket moves from resolved
to open (which isn't recorded automatically), not open to resolved (which
is).
- You need to obtain access to the ticket here via shift, not $Ticket.
- One line is missing a terminating semicolon.
- You can use names when loading custom field values (I'm guessing 13 is
the ID), but ID works too.
- The date object needs to be loaded with the time of the field, not the
current time.
- The AgeAsString method is provided by the RT::Date object, not the
ticket.
This code is untested but should be closer to what you want, although it
may need to be tweaked depending on the format in which you write the
custom field value beforehand:
...
value = sub {
my $ticket = shift;
my $reopened = $ticket-FirstCustomFieldValue(13);
my $date = RT::Date-new($RT::SystemUser);
$date-Set( Format = 'ISO', Value = $reopened );
return $date-AgeAsString;
}
...

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
Hi Alex, Thank you for all your help. I really appreciate it. I used that bit of code, It didn't have to be tweaked (I don't think) as I used the ISO format for my custom field. However, it does not seem to work. I can't seem to see where I am going wrong. The CustomField is storing the correct datetime. In the search result.

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
That code seems okay to me. Is you anything useful being reported to RT's
debug log?
Replacing all of that code with:
...
value = sub {
return 'this works';
},
...
could be useful in determining whether the problem lies with that code, or
elsewhere (i.e. how the search result column is being defined and used).

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
If you don't see this works in your search results with that change, then I'd suspect a problem in how the new column is defined overall. What's the complete content of the file you're using to define that new search result column, where are you placing it, and what does your test search result format look like as shown in the Advanced screen of the search builder?

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
The search result format string from the Advanced screen of the search
builder looks okay to me.
The file you've referenced only manages the addition of the field to the
select box on the search builder screen, and is presumably in the correct
location and working if your new field is showing up in the select box.
What's the full path to the file with the it works line, and that file's
complete content?

Re: [rt-users] Add Time difference in search result
RT automatically stores dates and times into tickets when they are created,
opened and closed.
I notice that you want a relative value (e.g. 40 minutes ago), which
means that that value is only meaningful for a very short time, so perhaps
you're wanting to place it in an outgoing email or something.
Can you tell us more about how you want to use this? I suspect so far that
a custom field isn't necessary.
