Ability to filter topics

[yisraeldov]

It would be very useful to be able to filter topic.

Specifically showing only issues for a specific milestone.

Also in the list mode it would be very helpful to see tags there and be able to limit to only open issues.

Thanks

This can be done by adding more filelds to the list

(setq forge-topic-list-columns
  '(("#" 5
     (lambda (a b)
       (> (car a) (car b)))
     (:right-align t) number nil)
    ("Title" 35 t nil title  nil)
    ("Milestone" 4 t nil milestone nil)
    ("State" 4 t nil state nil)
    ("Updated" 10 t nill updated nil)
    ))

and then using tablist-edit-filter

I confirm that @yisraeldov 's suggestion works, but suggest the following tweaks to column lengths so that the data appears nicely:

(setq forge-topic-list-columns
  '(("#" 4
     (lambda (a b)
       (> (car a) (car b)))
     (:right-align t) number nil)
    ("Title" 35 t nil title  nil)
    ("Milestone" 9 t nil milestone nil)
    ("State" 6 t nil state nil)
    ("Updated" 10 t nill updated nil)
    ))

This issue prompted me to make a feature request against the emacs function tabulated-list-sort. See here and feel free to comment there.

Also it would be nice to have the nicely formatted topics in the list view like they are in the main view.

Just wanted to mention https://github.com/politza/tablist

It's based on tabulated list but can filter columns by regex, resize columns, etc

[yisraeldov]

You can already filter, but the default view doesn't show enough columns to make it usefull.

I showed an example on youtube.

I would like to do this but with tags (know as labels). However, using the code from above I got unbound. In the quick view on status buffer page, we can see number, title and labels so I hope it's possible.

I past my day searching in the code but I got no idea to how accomplish that.

It would be very useful to be able to filter topic.

Some filtering is possible. Currently this is limited to one filter at a time, but I plan to make it possible to use multiple filters at once.

Specifically showing only issues for a specific milestone.

There isn't a milestone filter yet. I'll delay that until I add support for multiple filters at once, at which point it will be much easier to do this.

Also in the list mode it would be very helpful to see tags there

I've added support for that.

and be able to limit to only open issues.

That existed for a while now.
