Digest mode for notifications

Priority: low Component: Request-a-Hack
Severity: minor Keywords: Notification Digest

Description

Some people don't want to be deluged with notifications from the Trac server. It would be nice to have a "Digest" mode that sent interested parties a daily digest of activity.

It might be possible to accomplish your task using a newsgroup such as Gmane or Nabble.

I've set this up and I'll test it out for a few days and report back here to let you know it worked. The main limitation appears to be that all subscribers will receive an email containing all ticket activity, rather than just the tickets of interest (reporter, owner, cc, commenter, ...).

This feature has been requested for the AnnouncerPlugin. See #3659.

I have tried implementing a digest notification using Nabble, and so far have run into 3 issues:

  1. Messages were not being accepted due to the auto-generated and bulk tags in the message header: td4096092.
  2. The daily digest email does not aggregate notifications from the same ticket the way that Google Groups does for multiple messages from the same forum: td4504950
  3. Each message gets added as a new forum topic. It may be possible to improve on this, but I'm not sure this can be avoided in all cases because of the following example of the subject for two notifications from the same ticket:
    • Ticket #264: Crash when two Doppler process structures are defined
    • Ticket #264: Crash when two Doppler process structures are defined [Status -> closed]

and what about the native trac digest option? why it is so hard to implement?
