Bz Kanban Board

About

Visualize Bugzilla milestones as cards and columns with a Kanban inspired board.

The goal is to compliment an existing Bugzilla workflow, so board columns represent actual bug statuses. Cards can be dragged from one column to another to change the bug status.

It is implemented as a single-page application using Ajax with the Bugzilla 5 server REST API.

Demo

Try it.

Requirements

Client: A modern web browser capable of HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript.
Server: A Bugzilla 5.0+ server with REST API enabled.

Installation

Clone this git repo.
Configure which Bugzilla instance to connect to by modifying the hardcoded bzSiteUrl value in the bzkanban.js code.

Usage

Open the index.html in your web browser.
Pick a product and milestone and view the board!
Log in to enable editing cards, which includes dragging cards between columns.

Advanced

These are some settings that can be manually controlled via the page URL.

site
- The Bugzilla instance to load data from. Overrides the internal bzSiteUrl setting. e.g. site=https://bugzilla.mozilla.org
comments
- Show comment counts on cards. WARNING: it’s expensive, one more request per card. e.g. comments=true/false
autorefresh
- Reload the board when external changes to bugs are detected. e.g. autorefresh=true/false
