The third method is the best if there are hooks in the appropriate places.

##################

to write an Extension.
documentation <../html/api/Bugzilla/Extension.html>`_ for the core
documentation on how to write an Extension. We also have some additional
tips and tricks here.
XXX Also https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:Extension_Notes
XXX These came from the wiki. Should they actually be integrated into the
POD, or should some of the POD come here, or something else?
Checking Syntax
===============
It's not immediately obvious how to check the syntax of your extension's
modules. Running checksetup.pl might do some of it, but the errors aren't
necessarily massively informative.
:command:`perl -Mlib=lib -MBugzilla -e 'BEGIN { Bugzilla->extensions; } use Bugzilla::Extension::ExtensionName::Class;'`
(run from ``$BUGZILLA_HOME``) will do the trick.
Adding New Fields To Bugs
=========================
To add new fields to a bug, you need to do the following:
* Add an ``install_update_db`` hook to add the fields by calling
``Bugzilla::Field->create`` (only if the field doesn't already exist).
Here's what it might look like for a single field:
.. code-block:: perl
my $field = new Bugzilla::Field({ name => $name });
return if $field;
$field = Bugzilla::Field->create({
name => $name,
description => $description,
type => $type, # From list in Constants.pm
enter_bug => 0,
buglist => 0,
custom => 1,
});
* Push the name of the field onto the relevant arrays in the ``bug_columns``
and ``bug_fields`` hooks.
* If you want direct accessors, or other functions on the object, you need to
add a BEGIN block to your Extension.pm:
.. code-block:: perl
BEGIN {
*Bugzilla::Bug::is_foopy = \&_bug_is_foopy;
}
...
sub _bug_is_foopy {
return $_[0]->{'is_foopy'};
}
* You don't have to change ``Bugzilla/DB/Schema.pm``.
Adding New Fields To Other Things
=================================
If you are adding the new fields to an object other than a bug, you need to
go a bit lower-level.
* In ``install_update_db``, use ``bz_add_column`` instead
* Push on the columns in ``object_columns`` and ``object_update_columns``
instead of ``bug_columns``.
* Add validators for the values in ``object_validators``
The process for adding accessor functions is the same.
Adding Configuration Panels
===========================
As well as using the ``config_add_panels`` hook, you will need a template to
define the UI strings for the panel. See the templates in
:file:`template/en/default/admin/params` for examples, and put your own
template in :file:`template/en/default/admin/params` in your extension's
directory.
Adding User Preferences
=======================
To add a new user preference:
* Call ``add_setting('setting_name', ['some_option', 'another_option'],
'some_option')`` in the ``install_before_final_checks`` hook. (The last
parameter is the name of the option which should be the default.)
* Add descriptions for the identifiers for your setting and choices
(setting_name, some_option etc.) to the hash defined in
:file:`global/setting-descs.none.tmpl`. Do this in a hook:
:file:`hook/global/setting-descs-settings.none.tmpl`. Your code can see the
hash variable; just set more members in it.
* To change behaviour based on the setting, reference it in templates using
``[% user.settings.setting_name.value %]``. Reference it in code using
``$user->settings->{'setting_name'}->{'value'}``. The value will be one of
the option tag names (e.g. some_option).

Markdown
--------
Markdown is a structured plain-text format which lets you write comments that
have more styling than plain text. For example, you may use Markdown for
making a part of your comment look italic or bold in the generated HTML.
Bugzilla supports most of the structures defined by
`standard Markdown <http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/basics>`_,
but does NOT support inline images and inline HTML.
Additionally, three Github Flavored Markdown features are supported.
* `Multiple underscores in words <https://help.github.com/articles/github-flavored-markdown#multiple-underscores-in-words>`_
* `strikethrough <https://help.github.com/articles/github-flavored-markdown#strikethrough>`_
* `fenced code blocks <https://help.github.com/articles/github-flavored-markdown#fenced-code-blocks>`_
To use the Markdown feature, make sure that :guilabel:`Enable Markdown
support for comments` is set to :guilabel:`on`
in your :ref:`user-preferences` and that you also check the :guilabel:`Use
Markdown for this comment` option below the comment box when you want to
submit a new comment which uses Markdown.
