Fixing 86 issues since version 2.4.

Today we released version 2.5.1 of the projectdoc Toolbox on the Atlassian Marketplace!

This release provides some new features, improvements of existing features, and fixes a number issues.

The projectdoc Toolbox is an add-on for Confluence supporting agile software development teams to collaborate on process, project, system, and product documentation. 

Release Notes Overview

New and Noteworthy

Check Property Value

With this version it is possible to show a section or content dependent on a property value.

property-name=my-value,!property-name2=other-value

Prior to this version hiding has been only possible on the presence or absence of a property.

Flags Property

All document types now provide an additional hidden property to add arbitrary strings. These strings are Flags and are used to filter document.

In contrast to Subject, Categories, and Tags, Flags are not defined by their own document type (therefore are not documented) and will not be used to describe the HTML document with Metadata Sets.

Wiki Syntax

Selected macros from the projectdoc Toolbox can now be used with wiki syntax. This allows to use these macros with Confluence, where the new macros are not allowed (such as the menu).

Updated Doctypes

The references and resources section use the Tour Macro by default. This makes it much easier for authors to add references to internal pages and show their short description.

The table is rendered as a definition list. So if the link in the first column of the table is an external link, and no short description is provided, the definition list supports a compact representation by omitting the data value.

Developer Diaries use Templates

Some developer diaries doctypes now use the template feature with the Display Table Macro. This allows to render the Iteration property compactly with the Short Description.

Layout Macros

The projectdoc Toolbox provides macros for layouting web pages.

These include:

Breaking Changes

New Blueprint IDs

For all doctype add-on updates to their model version the blueprint keys change. This will effect the Create From Template Macro on existing pages.

This issue needs to either be resolved manually or by a text replacement tool.

Only the value for the blueprintModuleCompleteKey parameter of the macro needs to be replaced.

<ac:parameter ac:name="blueprintModuleCompleteKey">
  de.smartics.atlassian.confluence.smartics-projectdoc-confluence-space-swdev:projectdoc-blueprint-doctype-architecture-decision
</ac:parameter>

The new key prefix (excluding the name of the doctype) for the Software Development Doctypes Add-on is

de.smartics.atlassian.confluence.smartics-projectdoc-confluence-space-swdev:projectdoc-blueprint-doctype-

To update the value a user with write access may simply change the value in the macro editor of the Create From Template Macro:

If you do not want to scroll through long lists of blueprints, you may use the Source Code Editor and do the text replacement in the page source.

Reindex required

In order to fix broken phantom references (due to PDAC-922 - Getting issue details... STATUS ), a reindex is required.

Doctype Add-ons

Doctype add-ons provide space and page blueprints based on the projectdoc Toolbox.
