This is a script for all you Scrum||Kanban masters out there who use Taiga and are interested in visualizing progress and generate some automated statistics and graphs.
[Taiga](https://taiga.io/) is an Open Source virtual Scrum and Kanban board that is popular for managing projects and work. We use a physical whiteboard at work but I mirror the status of stories in Taiga so that I can collect some statistics and generate diagrams and graphs using this tool I wrote.
# Features
```console
$ taiga-stats --help
<insert-helptext-here>
```
# Terminology
* *US* - User Story
* *CFD* - Cumulative Flow Diagram
## Cumulative Flow Diagram
From a [CFD](http://brodzinski.com/2013/07/cumulative-flow-diagram.html) a lot of interesting insights about your team's progress [can be found](http://paulklipp.com/images/Interpreting_a_Cumulative_Flow_Diagram.jpg). However I'm not found of repetitive work like counting and entering numbers in an Excel sheet. This had to be automated! Therefore I deiced to write this script to save data on a daily basis with a cron job and a function for generating this diagram. This diagram can the be put on a TV visible in the hallways.
This is an example diagram generated from [mock data](https://github.com/erikw/taiga-stats/tree/main/sample_data/cfd_example.dat):
Textual annotations can be put in the plot by manually editing the `.dat file`.
Also a target date for the project deadline can be specified. Then a line will be drawn showing the ideal work pace towards this date, as seen below where the target finish date is in week 46.
To save the data and generate the diagram each working day I have this cronjob:
```console
$ crontab -l | grep taiga
0 18 * * 1-5 $HOME/bin/taiga-stats-cron.sh
```
and the script `taiga-stats-cron.sh`:
```bash
#!/usr/bin/env sh
taiga-stats store_daily --tag some_feature_tag
taiga-stats cfd --tag some_feature_tag
```
## User Story Dependency Graph
Some stories requires other to be completed before they can be started. I thought it would be handy if you could keep track of these dependencies in Taiga but simply writing for each US a list of other stories that this story depends on. Then from this information a [.dot file](https://github.com/erikw/taiga-stats/tree/main/sample_data/dependencies_example.dot) can be generated that should how you user stories depends on each other. This graph is very useful for work planning i.e. what to start with and how much parallelization is possible and at what stages.
The stories that are marked as Done in Taiga have a green color in the graph.
### How to set up the dependency feature
First create a new custom filed in taiga named `Depends On` under Settings > Attributes > Custom Fields:
Then go to your User Stories and enter some dependencies as demonstrated below.
Then run the script and generate a PNG file.
```console
$ taiga-stats deps_dot
$ dot -T png -o ./dependencies.png ./dependencies.dot
```
# Setup
## Installation
Make sure to use a supported python version. See the key `python` in the section `tool.poetry.dependencies` at [pyproject.toml](https://github.com/erikw/taiga-stats/blob/main/pyproject.toml).
```console
$ pip install taiga-stats
$ taiga-stats -h
```
If you use [pipx](https://pypi.org/project/pipx/) to install, you must specify a supported and locally available python version like:
```console
$ pipx install --python python3.9 taiga-stats
```
To use this tool, you need to supply
* `--url` to your taiga server e.g. `https://api.taiga.io/`
* `--auth-token` that you need to obtain according to the [official instructions](https://docs.taiga.io/api.html#_authentication).
It's recommended to put these 2 values in the below described `taiga-stats.conf` file for easier usage of this tool!
## Config file
It is tedious to have to specify the server URL and the authentication token every time. Also you typically work with some project at a time and would like to have default values for the project to use and maybe which tag to filter on. You can generate a configuration file to set these default values.
```console
$ taiga-stats config_template
$ mv ./taiga.conf.template ~/.taiga-stats.conf
$ vi ~/.taiga-stats.conf
```
# Development
* Make sure to `$ poetry shell` before using tools like pyright LSP, so that it can find the installed dependency modules
* Reference for how to structure a python project: https://realpython.com/pypi-publish-python-package/
## Setup from Git
* Clone this git
```console
$ git clone https://github.com/erikw/taiga-stats.git && cd $(basename "$_" .git)
```
* Install Poetry
```console
$ pip install poetry
```
* Numpy install issues as of 2021-10-31
* `$ poetry install` did not work with Numpy on macOS. Solution from https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/issues/3196#issuecomment-769753478
```console
$ pyenv local 3.9.7
$ poetry env use 3.9.7
$ poetry config experimental.new-installer false
$ poetry install
```
* Install project dependencies
```console
$ poetry install
```
* Now taiga-stats should work!
```console
$ poetry run taiga-stats -h
$ # or
$ bin/taiga-stats.sh
```
* To install locally:
```console
$ poetry build
$ pip install dist/taiga_stats-*.whl
```
# Development
## Documentation generation
```console
$ poetry run mkdocs serve
$ poetry run mkdocs build
```
but `bin/gen_docs.sh` will take care of all that plus more!
# Releasing
```console
$ bin/gen_docs.sh
$ vi CHANGELOG.md
$ poetry version minor && ver="v$(poetry version -s)"
$ git commit -am "Bump version to $ver" && git tag $ver && git push --atomic origin main $ver
$ poetry publish --build
```
