StoryBoard
##########

StoryBoard is the task and project tracking system both developed and used by
the OpenStack project. Some projects have already elected to move to
StoryBoard.

This section describes how StoryBoard is configured for use in the
OpenStack project and the tools used to manage that configuration.

Installation
============

StoryBoard is installed and configured by Puppet, using the puppet module
developed for the project.  See :ref:`sysadmin` for how Puppet is used to
manage OpenStack infrastructure systems.

Configuration
=============

The default superusers configuration of StoryBoard is managed from within
infra/system-config. The rest of the configuration is on projects-config.
To add a project, admin, or modify a team, please follow the instructions
below.

Adding a Project to StoryBoard
------------------------------

.. note::
   As cross-project work should be tracked in the same task-tracker,
   those wishing to set up new projects in StoryBoard should check about
   their specific circumstances in #openstack-infra.

Projects loaded into StoryBoard are handled from the same file that drives our
gerrit projects. Adding a new project is as simple as modifying a single
file and adding the line ``use-storyboard: true``:

``:config:`gerrit/projects.yaml```::

     - project: openstack-infra/storyboard
       description: OpenStack Task Tracking API
       use-storyboard: true


Adding an Admin to StoryBoard
-----------------------------

StoryBoard administrators are handled from a single configuration file, and
are identified by OpenID. To add a new administator, simply add their
Launchpad OpenID string and email as follows:

``:config:`gerrit/projects.yaml```::

    - openid: https://login.ubuntu.com/+id/LOLPONIES
      email: pinkie.pie@example.com


Modifying a Team on StoryBoard
------------------------------

Currently, only admin users can add users to a team; this is accessible
from the admin submenu menu. Teams have no special permissions yet;
stay tuned!
