Hello,
I just wrote two python scripts to transform a project managed in org-mode
in (beautifull) gantt graphes.
You could find more here :
- example of generated graphes :
- http://xael.org/norman/python/org2gantt/project.svg
- http://xael.org/norman/python/org2gantt/project_ressources.svg
- explanations : http://xael.org/norman/python/org2gantt/README.org
- the whole thing : http://xael.org/norman/python/org2gantt/org2gantt.tar.gz
Of course, it is in an early release... Seems to work but not deeply tested
yet.
Comments or improvements are welcome !
Regards,
Alexandre

Thanks for sharing. It looks interesting. Could you include the
example.org that you mention in README.org, in the tar file as well?

now.

I really love this Alexandre! I have yet to use it, but it has given me ideas for a similar tool.
It did make me realize I would love to see your project management org mode system. I also manage projects at my work but don’t use org mode for that (some tasks but thats it). Do you have anything written up on how you do it?
Cheers

Happy New Year!!!
Just curious: did you see this ?
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler.html
I must say I like your output better, rather than opening another tool. But
maybe there is a way to at least use the same properties to make it useful
to more users ?

After a quick look, there are good design ideas to take…
I think I will do the switch !!!

Hello,
I reworked on my code. You can find it here :
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-gantt/
or with pip ::
pip install python-gantt
Enclosed, there is two parts :
- python-gantt : this library is used to draw gantt svg charts from python
- org2gantt : used to transform org-mode files to python-gantt ones
You can see outputs here :
- http://xael.org/norman/python/python-gantt/project.png
- http://xael.org/norman/python/python-gantt/project_resources.png
Installation
------------
To install python-gantt, just issue :
python setup.py install
It requires :
- svgwrite
- clize
Usage
-----
For using org2gantt, see help :
python org2gantt/org2gantt.py -h
Basic usage is :
python org2gantt/org2gantt.py org2gantt/example.org
It should generate two charts : one for tasks and one for resources
assignment.
Syntax for org-mode
-------------------
See org2gantt/example.org and org2gantt/README.org for detailed
explanations.
Basically, you need to define :
- resources : in a special section "RESOURCES"
- and projects containing tasks.
Timeframe of tasks is defined by <SCHEDULE> (beginning) and <DEADLINE>
(end).
Some properties are used for :
- duration of the task
- define some task's blockers
- resources used
- and some other things
Syntax is mostly compatible with org-taskjuggler when you have renamed
RESOURCES
section.
In addition, resources can also be defined as tags. I think it's better
than the
org-taskjuggler property method as you can use them directly in org-mode !
My work flow
-------------------
I work for a big company with two missions :
- sysadmin (os + apps) on a 300+ server park,
- do some integration and qualification on applications,
- deploy those applications on our servers.
I am managing 15 persons in two teams. One do daily sysadmin and the other
one
do the IQ and deployment part.
For the sysadmin part, it's quite straightaway : daily repetitive tasks,
and little
scheduling (server installation, patch, updates…)
For the IQ / deployment team, the dates of operations are not defined by me
but
others (devs for the delivery and clients for production interruption).
Scheduling is done with a long term view (6 months - 1 year)… but evolve
as dev are usually in hurry at first and in late at the end.
For this, I need to check resources allocation in order to be able to do the
work. I used ganttproject for this. But it is not really user friendly and
lack
good outputs I can share with others.
org2gantt allows me to do some nice pictures for big managers. And with
org-mode, it helps me to easily keep track of tasks (notes, documents,
milestones) and who is assigned to what.
Org-mode is also really usefull keep the someday/maybe notes.
Regards,
Alexandre
