Redmine Google Docs Plugin¶ ↑

This is a plugin for Redmine that allows you to embed Google Spreadsheets and Docs into redmine pages. This is useful for keeping Google Docs-based documentation up-to-date with the issue queue.

The development of this module was sponsored by Evolving Web.

Usage¶ ↑

Embed a spreadsheet, filtering by a query¶ ↑

{{googlespreadsheet(key, query)}}

Where ‘key` is the document key (from the URI) and `query` is the (optional) SQL-like query to filter with.

You can also specify a sheet with an optional third parameter.

{{googlespreadsheet(key, query, sheet)}}

Embed just the row containing the current issue’s ID in the second column¶ ↑

Given a spreadsheet like this:

Source  | Issue ID  |  Description
--------+-----------+-----------------------------------------
Client  | 5678      | Change the colour of the banner to blue
QA Team | 6674      | Error message on search page
...

We can add the following macro to Issue 5678’s description field:

{{googleissue(key)}}

where ‘key` is the document key of the Google spreadsheet (from the URI).

For example:

{{googleissue(adfSDFiuhDSF98SDFhiushdafbhIDFXF0dsf)}}

Embed a Google Doc (for Word-like documents)¶ ↑

To embed an document in read-write mode:

{{googledoc(key, edit)}}

To embed a document in read-only mode:

{{googledoc(key)}}

Embed a Native Google Spreadsheet (uses an iframe)¶ ↑

{{googlessn(key)}}
