Tracker items Export after filtering fails (either all items or none exported)

• Conflict of two features (each works well independently)
• Regression
• Less than 30-minutes fix

Tracker items Export after filtering fails (either all items or none exported, depending on how you create your plugin TrackerFilter call). That was known to work in the past (see ), and I recall using this type of feature long ago (years ago, maybe with tiki6???).

It seems as if minor fix was needed to have it export items filtered on the criteria indicated through either PluginTrackerFilter or based on the filtering in the tracker feature interface itself.

Fixed

Case 1: TrackerFilter using param "export=y"

This produces a button at the bottom to go to export, in theory, with the pre-selection of item filtered.

• Come here at the homepage:
  http://xavi-9794-5876.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=HomePage
• Filter for the word "topic". It will list just 3 items from the longer list of items in the tracker.
  http://xavi-9794-5876.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?trackerId=1#trackerFilter1-result
• click at the "Export" button at the bottom, which will load this page (should it be another url?), and apparently nothing happens: the same page is reloaded:
  http://xavi-9794-5876.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?controller=tracker&action=export&trackerId=1&displayedFields=4&f_4=topic

  
  

Case 2: TrackerFilter using param " export_action='Export it' "

• Come here at the Tracker_as_Calendar_12 page:
  http://xavi-9794-5876.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=Tracker_as_Calendar_12
• Type the word "topic" in the ext box and click at "Export it" button. The csv produced has no content.

Case 3

You want to do the same from the tracker feature itself: after listing items, you filter bsaed on some criteria, and you click at ecport, you expect to get that filtering applied to the csv to be exported.
The url might look like:
http://xavi-9794-5876.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-ajax_services.php?controller=tracker&action=export&trackerId=1&status=o&sort_mode=f__asc&filterfield=4&filtervalue%5B1%5D=&filtervalue%5B2%5D=&filtervalue_other=&filtervalue%5B3%5D=5+%28high%29&filtervalue%5B4%5D=topic&filter=Filter

Couldn't we use these values in the arguments of the url to have a pre-selection of items to be exported?

Pending Fixing

Update: Filter based on cases of "Multiple selection" fields do not work: nothing is exported or all is (filtering doesn't seem to be working).

Case 11: TrackerFilter using param "export=y"

This produces a button at the bottom to go to export, in theory, with the pre-selection of item filtered.

• Come here at the homepage:
  http://xavi-9794-5876.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=HomePage
• Field 7 (multiselect): "Resources needed" produces:
  
  Copy to clipboard

  __tracker field type not processed yet M__

Case 12: TrackerFilter using param " export_action='Export it' "

• Come here at the Tracker_as_Calendar_12 page:
  http://xavi-9794-5876.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=Tracker_as_Calendar_12
• You can't see the form field to filter based on the multiselect field. You type Laser at the text field to filter, and a 0 byte file is produced.

Case 13

You want to do the same from the tracker feature itself:
http://xavi-9794-5876.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_tracker.php?trackerId=1

• Filter for the "Resources needed" Laser Pointer. 3 items will be shown (out of the 6 max).
• click at the "Export" button at the bottom. None is exported, just the header line with the variable names, but no record below.

  
  

Can you check 58797 ? it should be solved for all 3 use cases.

Impressive, all fixed. Thanks heaps Ricardo- rjsmelo (and Nelson, I guess?) 😊

Update: some case (multiple seelction fields) do not work for filtering yet. See above in the bug description

Xavier, there was no support for that kind of field (type M) that was the reason it showed:

__tracker field type not processed yet M__

This message means that the field type is not supported (yet)
I've added support for multiple selection fields across all use cases.
Please test r58823

(Xavier, unrelated: when I tried to save with sign and only the user, it didn't added the datetime and didn't show on the interface, may be a bug, please test if that happens to you also) test sign:

Thanks Ricardo, works like a charm. Thanks for providing support for M.
Regarding the signature, you just need to type

{sign user="xavi" datetime="2016-06-08T10:07:23+00:00"}

and Tiki will add your username and timestamp all in one go.
