Kevin Papst
Allows configuration of additional (custom) fields for:
Timesheets
, Customers
, Projects
, Activities
, Invoices
, User
, Expenses
(see plugin).
Features
You can create as many fields as you want for each data type, where each field:
- is either optional or mandatory
- can be restricted to users with certain permissions or roles
- can be described with a name and help text
- has a maximum length of 65535 character
The custom-field data is then available in:
- Data-tables will display all visible fields
- Exports (HTML and Spreadsheets include all visible fields)
- Timesheet exports (include visible timesheet fields)
- API (collections and entities)
- Invoice templates (custom templates have access to all fields)
You can change the “weight” of custom-fields, so they show up in the order you define.
Be aware:
- Sensitive data can be configured as “invisible”, so it will not show up in the previously mentioned places
- Weekly-hours does NOT support custom fields
- User preferences (custom fields for users) are not exported by the API (this is a limitation in the core application)
- User preferences have a maximum length of 250 character
Field types
Custom fields can be of the following type:
string
, integer
, number
, duration
, money
, language
, currency
, country
, color
, date
, datetime
, email
, textarea
, invoice template
, checkbox
, choice-list
More about those in the documentation.
Installation
Dateien kopieren
Extract the ZIP file and upload the included directory and all files to your Kimai installation to the new directory:
var/plugins/MetaFieldsBundle/
The file structure needs to look like this afterwards:
var/plugins/
├── MetaFieldsBundle
│ ├── MetaFieldsBundle.php
| └ ... more files and directories follow here ...
Cache leeren
After uploading the files, Kimai needs to know about the new plugin. It will be found once the cache was re-built. Call these commands from the Kimai directory:
How to reload Kimai cache
bin/console kimai:reload --env=prod
It is not advised, but in case the above command fails you could try:
rm -r var/cache/prod/*
You might have to set file permissions afterwards:
Adjust file permission
You have to allow PHP (your webserver process) to write to
var/
and it subdirectories.
Here is an example for Debian/Ubuntu (to be executed inside the Kimai directory):
chown -R :www-data .
chmod -R g+r .
chmod -R g+rw var/
Datenbank erstellen
Run the following command:
bin/console kimai:bundle:metafields:install
This will create the required database tables and update them to the latest version.
There are no commands defined in the "kimai:bundle:XYZ" namespace.
,
then either the directory has a wrong name (must be var/plugins/MetaFieldsBundle/) or you forgot to clear the cache (look above).
Aktualisierung
Updating the plugin works exactly like the installation:
- Delete the directory
var/plugins/MetaFieldsBundle/
-
Execute all installation steps again:
- Dateien kopieren
- Cache leeren
- Update database with
bin/console kimai:bundle:metafields:install
