New filters are added from the pulldown lists at the bottom corners of the filters box; 'And' conditions on the left, 'Or' conditions on the right.

New filters are added from the dropdown lists at the bottom corners of the filters box; 'And' conditions on the left, 'Or' conditions on the right. Filters with either a text box or a dropdown menu of options can be added multiple times to perform an ''Or'' on the criteria. 16 17 For text fields such as Keywords and CC the `-` operator can be used to negate a match and double quotes (//since 1.2.1//) can be used to match a phrase. For example, a //contains// match for `word1 word2 -word3 "word4 word5"` matches tickets containing `word1` and `word2`, not `word3` and `word4 word5`. 16 18 17 19 You can use the fields just below the filters box to group the results based on a field, or display the full description for each ticket. … … 19 21 After you have edited your filters, click the ''Update'' button to refresh your results. 20 22 21 == Navigating Tickets == 23 Keyboard shortcuts are available for manipulating the //checkbox// filters: 24 * Clicking on a filter row label toggles all checkboxes. 25 * Pressing the modifier key while clicking on a filter row label inverts the state of all checkboxes. 26 * Pressing the modifier key while clicking on a checkbox selects the checkbox and deselects all other checkboxes in the filter. Since 1.2.1 this also works for the //Columns// checkboxes. 27 28 The modifier key is platform and browser dependent. On Mac the modified key is !Option/Alt or Command. On Linux the modifier key is Ctrl + Alt. Opera on Windows seems to use Ctrl + Alt, while Alt is effective for other Windows browsers. 29 30 == Navigating Tickets 31 22 32 Clicking on one of the query results will take you to that ticket. You can navigate through the results by clicking the ''Next Ticket'' or ''Previous Ticket'' links just below the main menu bar, or click the ''Back to Query'' link to return to the query page. 23 33 … … 26 36 The query results can be refreshed and cleared of these status indicators by clicking the ''Update'' button again. 27 37 28 == Saving Queries ==38 == Saving Queries 29 39 30 40 Trac allows you to save the query as a named query accessible from the reports module. To save a query ensure that you have ''Updated'' the view and then click the ''Save query'' button displayed beneath the results. 31 41 You can also save references to queries in Wiki content, as described below. 32 42 33 '' Note:'' one way to easily build queries like the ones below, you can build and test the queries in the Custom report module and when ready - click ''Save query''. This will build the query string for you. All you need to do is remove the extra line breaks.43 '''Note:''' one way to easily build queries like the ones below, you can build and test the queries in the Custom report module and when ready - click ''Save query''.

The ''Save query'' button will only appear if you are logged in as a user that has been granted this permission.

You can do this by making a link to the query from any Wiki page. … … 55 65 [query:?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&group=owner Assigned tickets by owner] 56 66 57 === Using the `[[TicketQuery]]` Macro ===67 === Customizing the ''table'' format 58 68 59 The [trac:TicketQuery TicketQuery] macro lets you display lists of tickets matching certain criteria anywhere you can use WikiFormatting.60 61 Example:62 {{{63 [[TicketQuery(version=0.6|0.7&resolution=duplicate)]]64 }}}65 66 This is displayed as:67 [[TicketQuery(version=0.6|0.7&resolution=duplicate)]]68 69 Just like the [wiki:TracQuery#UsingTracLinks query: wiki links], the parameter of this macro expects a query string formatted according to the rules of the simple [wiki:TracQuery#QueryLanguage ticket query language]. This also displays the link and description of a single ticket:70 {{{71 [[TicketQuery(id=123)]]72 }}}73 74 This is displayed as:75 [[TicketQuery(id=123)]]76 77 A more compact representation without the ticket summaries is:78 {{{79 [[TicketQuery(version=0.6|0.7&resolution=duplicate, compact)]]80 }}}81 82 This is displayed as:83 [[TicketQuery(version=0.6|0.7&resolution=duplicate, compact)]]84 85 Finally, if you wish to receive only the number of defects that match the query, use the `count` parameter:86 {{{87 [[TicketQuery(version=0.6|0.7&resolution=duplicate, count)]]88 }}}89 90 This is displayed as:91 [[TicketQuery(version=0.6|0.7&resolution=duplicate, count)]]92 93 === Customizing the ''table'' format ===94 69 You can also customize the columns displayed in the table format (''format=table'') by using ''col=<field>''. You can specify multiple fields and what order they are displayed in by placing pipes (`|`) between the columns: 95 70 {{{ … … 100 75 [[TicketQuery(max=3,status=closed,order=id,desc=1,format=table,col=resolution|summary|owner|reporter)]] 101 76 102 ==== Full rows ==== 77 ==== Full rows 78 103 79 In ''table'' format you can also have full rows by using ''rows=<field>'': 104 80 {{{ … … 109 85 [[TicketQuery(max=3,status=closed,order=id,desc=1,format=table,col=resolution|summary|owner|reporter,rows=description)]] 110 86 111 == = Query Language ===87 == Query Language 112 88 113 89 `query:` TracLinks and the `[[TicketQuery]]` macro both use a mini “query language” for specifying query filters. Filters are separated by ampersands (`&`). Each filter consists of the ticket field name, an operator and one or more values. More than one value are separated by a pipe (`|`), meaning that the filter matches any of the values. To include a literal `&` or `|` in a value, escape the character with a backslash (`\`). … … 125 101 || '''`!$=`''' || the field content does not end with any of the values || 126 102 103 Filters combining matches and negated matches can be constructed for text fields such as Keywords and CC when using the //contains// (`~=`) operator. The `-` operator is used to negate a match and double quotes (//since 1.2.1//) are used for whitespace-separated words in a phrase. For example, `keywords~=word1 word2 -word3 "word4 word5"` matches tickets containing `word1` and `word2`, not `word3` and also `word4 word5`. 104 || '''`status=closed,keywords~=firefox`''' || query closed tickets that contain keyword `firefox` || 105 || '''`status=closed,keywords~=opera`''' || query closed tickets that contain keyword `opera` || 106 || '''`status=closed,keywords~=firefox opera`''' || query closed tickets that contain keywords `firefox` and `opera` || 107 || '''`status=closed,keywords~=firefox|opera`''' || query closed tickets that contain keywords `firefox` or `opera` || 108 || '''`status=closed,keywords~=firefox,or,keywords~=opera`''' || query closed tickets that contain keyword `firefox`, or (closed or unclosed) tickets that contain keyword `opera` || 109 || '''`status=closed,keywords~=firefox -opera`''' || query closed tickets that contain keyword `firefox`, but not `opera` || 110 || '''`status=closed,keywords~=opera -firefox`''' || query closed tickets that contain keyword `opera`, but no `firefox` || 111 127 112 The date fields `created` and `modified` can be constrained by using the `=` operator and specifying a value containing two dates separated by two dots (`..`). Either end of the date range can be left empty, meaning that the corresponding end of the range is open. The date parser understands a few natural date specifications like "3 weeks ago", "last month" and "now", as well as Bugzilla-style date specifications like "1d", "2w", "3m" or "4y" for 1 day, 2 weeks, 3 months and 4 years, respectively. Spaces in date specifications can be omitted to avoid having to quote the query string. 128 113 || '''`created=2007-01-01..2008-01-01`''' || query tickets created in 2007 || … … 131 116 || '''`modified=..30daysago`''' || query tickets that have been inactive for the last 30 days || 132 117 118 Note that `modified` is the //last modified time//, so `modified` with a date range shows ticket that were //last modified// in that date range. If a ticket was modified in the date range, but modified again after the end date, it will not be included in the results. 119 133 120 ---- 134 See also: TracTickets, TracReports, TracGuide 121 See also: TracTickets, TracReports, TracGuide, TicketQuery
