Hi all,

we also need this for a customer so I wrote a patch against redmine-1.1.1.
Now you can choose per project if you want to be able to include the time for start_date and due_date.
Comments and improvements welcome :-)
Would be nice if this could be included in the uptream code base.

Thanks in advance,
David
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would also like to see this included in the code base. I get nervous about applying a patch to my production system and coming to depend on the functionality and then have it break in future releases. Who makes the decision about whether or not this gets included and what version is gets targeted for?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd like to second Kevin's request - I'd like to see this included in 1.2.x and forward.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried to install this patch on 1.3.2 (Turnkey Linux - Redmine Appliance) and I get errors starting with....

So I tested it and it's functional.
Try it too.

I'll fix it and also try it in 2.3.1.
Hope next week.

Hi, thank you for the patch.

Redmine throws this error

ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method `use_datetime_for_issues' ...

Redmine version 2.3.1.stable

Hi, I solved.

1. apply patch.
2. run "rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production" in redmine directory.
3. test.

Hi,

I updated the diff file,

- Now the hours range of 0 - 23. before it was 0 - 24.
- Now the minutes range of 0 - 55. before it was 0 - 60.
- I had problem, when I try update a issue, with time zone, but with this file, work fine for me.
- add in locale es.yml

adjunt file.

thank you Evzen.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
Thank you for the patch.
But I believe, it still needs refinement.
See following test case :

1. Create an issue with start and due Date and Times defined.
2. Go to issue update/edit screen
3. The selection of time hours and minutes shows time in UTC format and not in the user defined time zone.

Could you please rectify this issue as well.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well the UTC problem is another edge case. This is currently not respected in many situations.

I have found a quick fix for one issue in time tags and attached is the updated patch file

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi all,

I've had a go at fixing the patch, based on the previous comments plus a few extras:
* Time zone support
* Time now takes into account required-ness in the workflow.
* Changes minutes from 5-min intervals to 1-min. (need this for my project).
* Zero pad hours/minutes.

I couldn't replicate the malformed patch error, but I've run this against the latest 2.3-stable so hopefully that's good enough :)

Cheers,
Alex

PS. I'm new to ruby, but I'd like to get this patch accepted ASAP (need it for a project!) so let me know if you have any feedback.

Fixed a minor bug that meant the time was disappearing if the form was reloaded using ajax (i.e. if the status or tracker is changed).

Also added in a localise_date function that quickly will spit back a date/time/datetime in the correct format for the timezone the current user is in.

I'm working on an SLA plugin for the work I need to do I'll try to clean it up afterwards and get it to a releasable state. This plugin has the ability to see if a ticket is overdue (well the semantics are that the SLA is in breach but the concept is the same), it also has the ability to set the due_date as a number of seconds after the start_due configurable by issue priority.

Alex

Hi Alex,

After applying the patch the calendar stops to work : it doesn't show neither the old tasks nor the new ones...even if the time-feature is disabled in the project´s proprieties.

Thanks Alex,
Since you are already working on SLA feature.
Is it possible to take into account that a status say - feedback - Pending for information is excluded from issues being considered for lapsed times. (That is any ticket with status say "Pending for information" should not become overdue till it is actually being worked on - "in progress" ).
Share your thoughts on this.

Yes that should be possible, we're adding in a "Ticket stops" piece which will show an issue in a "Paused" sla state if the ticket is stopped. This will then be factored into the overall SLA time period. Hopefully with a few changes to language strings that should suit you :)

Fixed this by simply doing a to_date call if it's a datetime, not sure if this is okay but good enough for my needs for now.

Hi Rupesh,

This was caused by not having a time zone selected it appears, fixed now in this version (V7) of the patch.

Are you logged in as the admin account? They can perform all activities on the workflow (not sure why, this is default Redmine behaviour it would appear).

Hi,

But strangely, I noticed that if the user is admin this required-ness does not work but works for non-admin users with same role.

This happens when Start date is day 10/01/2014 at 20:00 HRs (8:00 PM)
and Due date time is at 12/01/2014 : 02:00 HRS ( 2:00 AM )
That is whenever there is a difference in AM and PM in start and due date times
Other wise it works OK

1. Apply the patch, restart service and test -> ko for new issues
2. Remove the patch, restart service, and test -> ko for existing issues and project config
3. redownload redmine from svn, bundle install and test -> ko for existing issues and project config

Hi Bertrand,
The Redmine jquery DatePicker does not include time. I have not searched for a compatible DateTimePicker.
I suppose that the developer that maintains the DatePicker (JPL ?) will be more efficient in this task.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, as far as i know, Redmine uses the jquery UI datepicker. This way you can extend the datepicker like the normal jquery ui datepicker with datetime.

Or maybe a switch to another jQuery based timepicker like this one: http://plugins.jquery.com/datetimepicker/
Which seems pretty okay for the task searched.

But on the other hand...
Modern browsers support a native date and a native datetime picker out of the box. This solution is just needed for oldschool browsers which don't know these features. They will gracefully fall back to a text input field which could be extended by the script.

Hope this helps?

Hi,

This patch only customFields modified.
If you want to use the hours in another context, you must do so by changing the code.

You have an example in application.js line 167-171.

Cheers,
Emmanuel

I've tried patch with 2.6.x and it fails
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whether it is planned to add this feature in the new 3.x version?

Hi, I have 3.1.0 and version 5458-use_time_in_issue_start_and_due_date_2.3_stable_V9 (2).diff works for me fine.

In the part when I edit app/helpers/queries_helper.rb

I add this

<pre><code class="diff">
+ when 'Time'
+ if ( column.name == :start_date or column.name == :due_date ) and
+ ( !issue.project.use_datetime_for_issues or value.strftime('%H%M')=='0000' )
+ format_date(value)
+ else
+ format_time(value)
+ end
+ when 'Date'
+ format_date(value)

when 'Fixnum'
</code></pre>

after add patch, you must use command RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:migrate - this solve problems posted from Bertrand FRUCHET

Sorry for my bad english

+1 can it be planned for 3.2 or 4.0 release?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi All.
Here is modified patch for 3.2.0 (5458-use_time_in_issue_start_and_due_date_2.3_stable_V9_3.diff)
there are many offsets when apply it, but all Hunk succeeded.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's great.
But how I can add hours in projects issues? I didn't found time entries in issues new/edit pages.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's been 6 years, how can it be a much needed and easy feature like this hasn't made it into a stable release yet?
Instead Contributors prefer newbie bashing... Open Source projects with developers and an attitude like this always make me sad.

And another problem - where i could set start or due time? there are only Date picker in Redmine interface
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have just installed the latest version of Redmine (v3.3.0) where we wanted to continue to use this patch. We have carried out the installation (v9) and has installed and implemented well, but when you run Redmine does not appear, the hours are not shown in the date field.

I think it's the same case described by Roman Khaleev (#5458#note-94).

Then I leave informed our current installation data in the production environment:
* *Environment:*
** Redmine version 2.5.1.stable
** Ruby version 1.9.3-p0 (2011-10-30) [x86_64-linux]
** Rails version 3.2.17
** Environment production
** Database adapter Mysql2
* *SCM:*
** Subversion 1.6.17
** Filesystem
* *Redmine plugins:*
** redmine_agile 1.1.1-light
** redmine_backlogs v1.0.6
** redmine_lightbox 0.0.1
** redmine_mylyn_connector 2.8.2.stable
** timelog_timer 2.0.0

Hi guys,
I have a Bitnami Redmine 3.3.x stable and I need to undestand step by ste how should I have to apply these "diff" files!...could you please help me?

Thanks in advance
Hernan

We really need this feature. Setting up the time(along with dates) for deadlines is crucial to us. Hope this gets integrated in redmine soon.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have tried this patch - 5458-use_time_in_issue_start_and_due_date_2.3_stable_V9_3.diff
I second what Roman and Victor said earlier. DateTimepicker doesn't show up in UI. This is probably what Jérôme & Daniel mentioned earlier in the thread. Can anyone point me how to include this in UI? I think I have to play around with jQuery\JavaScript files - if anyone has instructions already, that will be useful. Thanks.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For what it's worth, I gave up on these patches and I am using following plugin - https://github.com/nanego/redmine_datetime_custom_field/issues
It only works with custom fields but that solves many of my issues and I don't have to worry about patches. I humbly request to consider time(at least for due date) in future. Most of redmine alternatives(Trello etc.) use it. Thank you.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi, is there a solution for this already or will it be implemented in core sometime?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+1 for this.

I propose ability to configure in settings if someone wants to display time or just date...

Preferably, per project. Sometimes time is important, sometimes not...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can we add Actual Date of Completion of issue? Keeping Due Date unchanged so that we can track delay by taking the difference between due date and actual date of completion.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does patch works on Redmine 4.1.1.?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also really need this feature, to have minute-resolution for start/end date. This is to use redmine for planning tasks which can start/stop with minute specification.

I have tried reading this thread, but I'm not really clear on the status. The seems to be external plugin(s), but I need this to work with the core start/due date fields. Is there any (partial) patch in this direction? I am willing to contribute time and code if needed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I REALLY need this feature.
Actually, there are many things that need to be managed in progress by the minute.
I think this is a feature that many people need.
I've never used Ruby on Rails, but if there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.
