taskjuggler3 export

taskjuggler3 export

[Thorsten]

Hi list, 
I tried to write an org file for a project plan with the aim to export
it using taskjuggler 3.1.0. 

besides following the advice from these two source:

,----------------------------------------------------------------------
| http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-02/msg00058.html
| https://github.com/alander/org-taskjuggler3
`----------------------------------------------------------------------

and deleting some redundant braces in the exported .tjp file, the
resulting html files were less than satisfying (e.g. no gantt chart
created).  

The problem seems to be the reporting part. Does anyone has sample
report templates that can be used in
"org-export-taskjuggler-default-reports" when using taskjuggler3?

Or, more generally asked, did anyone recently successfully exported to
taskjuggler3?

Thanks for any hints.

cheers,
Thorsten

Hi,

I didn't use the org-taskjuggler3 resource, but below[1] are some
changes that I made in the org-taskjuggler.el file. With these I can
export e.g. the default example file at:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler.html to a
taskjuggler file and have tj3 produce a Gantt_Chart web page, see
screenshot attached.

Caveat: In the standard example file I changed all efforts from xxd to
xx.0 and resource_id to ID.

Hope this helps.

Erik

thanks for your answer, I could not really make it work, I think I will
install taskjuggler 2.4 and just wait untill orgmode is ready for
taskjuggler3

The estimated efford for my little gantt chart was 1h,
now its almost 1d ;)

Hi, 

I use the following testtj3.org file that I export to taskjuggler 3.0 :

|# End:                                                                    
`----------------------------------------------------------------------------

As you can see, I define in the org-export-taskjuggler-default-reports 
variable at the end of the file that I want to use gantexport.tji where the 
gant output directives are defined. This file is in the same directory as org 
file.

The gantexport.tji is the following :

,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|### begin report definition						       
|									       
|taskreport "Gantt Chart" {						       
|  headline "Project Gantt Chart"					       
|  columns hierarchindex, name, start, end, effort, duration, completed, 
chart  
|  timeformat "%Y-%m-%d"       
|  hideresource 1							       
|  formats html								       
|  loadunit shortauto							       
|}                                                                            
`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then the instruction tj3 testtj3.tjp generate the gant chart accessible 
in "Gantt Chart.html" file.

Hope that can help.
