We’re planning to build our own webinterface to use when creating
tickets. We need to use custom fields, what I can see RT CLI are not
supporting CF, have I understand this correct?
What’s the best way to do this, create a perl script that make the job
or send the data as mail and let the mail-gate do the job?
// Jens
Jens,
RT-3.5.8 supports CF.

Can you elaborate on this. I can’t seem to figure out how to display my
custom fields via the cli. I am using rt 0.02 which came with rt-3.6.1Carl
Assuming you have a custom field called ‘Training’ associated with
ticket number 45367, you could do the following:
user@host:> rt show -f CF-Training,Subject,Priority ticket/45367
id: ticket/45367
CF-Training: Yes
Priority: 10
The confusing thing about the rt CLI tool in regard to custom fields is
that searching requires a syntax like ‘CF.{Training}’ and showing uses
the ‘CF-Training’ form.

Thanks for the info.
What if I have a custom filed that has a white space in it?

I must still be doing something wrong. Here is what I have for custom fields:
Custom Fields for Tickets
* Address: Address
* Billmax_Account_Number:
* City:
* Contact_Phone: Contact Phone Number
Custom Fields for Ticket Transactions
* Inventory_Used: Inventory Used
* Unlisted_Inventory_Used:
And I only have one ticket so far as I am still playing with things.
[cdavis@localhost ~]$ rt show ticket/1 -f CF-Address,CF-City,subject
id: ticket/1

The custom fields are populated when looking at the ticket on the web interface.

I’m not certain why that isn’t working. The equivalent query on my
system works. Have you modified the code base at all?
Thanks for the info.

I’m not certain what you would have to do, but one thing I’m pretty sure
of is that you’ll need to modify the CustomField modules to accept white
space in the name (and then escape/quote the white space in your shell).

No I haven’t touched anything, I wouldn’t even know how if I wanted to.
