web_link in the PRs email?

[Kanna Potharlanka]

Hello All,
	    We have installed gnats-3.999.1 and it runs fine with a web
interface. Is it possible to generate/include an "edit" link(to the PR)
in the email that is sent whenever a PR is submitted/edited. In other
words, can we have a web_link in every email that is sent out, so that
by just clicking the link, we can edit that PR. We want to use gnats
to save discussions about bugs also and hence this is a feature we dearly
miss! Kindly help.
	    Thanks for your time.

Regards,
Kanna.

Yes. The contents of the mails is defined in the dbconfig file.

Sorry for not giving an example; I am not yet familiar with the
4.0pre (=3.999.1) version.

in the dbconfig, something like this in the email definitions (there are 6
possible, but things like the 'deleted-pr-mail' wouldn't have the edit link)
should work:

   body {
    ...
    <A HREF="http://localhost/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=default&cmd=edit&pr=%s">
    Edit this bug</A>
    ...
    }
    fields { ... "$PRNum" ... }
  }

Note that you might have other %s escapes in the body, so make sure you have
your fields in the right order there at the end.

Also, of course, edit your link to point the right location of gnatwsweb on
your machine, and adjust the 'database=default' to point to the database
that you are talking about.
