# Marvin
Marvin is a bot for Redmine. He helps you to tidy up your ticket system by nudging and/or closing abandoned tickets.
## Configuration
After pulling the repository you have to create a virtual environment within the repository folder:
```bash
python3 -m venv ./venv
```
Activate the virtual environment:
```bash
source venv/bin/activate
```
Then you have to fulfill the dependencies with:
```bash
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
```
Next copy the example files, rename them to `.env` and `config.yaml` and fill in the right values.
### Configure actions
You can define different actions for the bot to perform.
Below the `actions` section in the `config.yaml` you can add your own actions.
```yaml
actions:
waiting_for_feedback:
start_date: "2021-01-01" # Date from which tickets are to be processed (all tickets from yyyy-mm-dd)
time_range: "14" # Number of days that should be exceeded without updates on the ticket
projects:
- "IT Tickets" # List of redmine projects
status:
- "Waiting for feedback" # List of all issue status you want to treat
close_ticket: true # optional: should the ticket get closed after the update?
template: "close_ticket" # Template for the update massage
in_revision:
start_date: "2021-01-01"
time_range: "14"
projects:
- "IT Tickets"
status:
- "In revision"
template: "nudge_ticket"
change_status_to: "Waiting for feedback" # optional: change the ticket status to "waiting for feedback"
```
## Usage

Open crontab
```bash

```
Add entry
```
