BugMonkey Markdown

BugMonkey customization for FogBugz which allows for Markdown in case editor.

Observe:

Prerequisites

1. You need FogBugz.
2. You must be using the desktop version of the FogBugz site.
3. You need IE9+, FF14+, Chrome 18+, Safari 6+, Opera 15+, or...
4. for mobile browser compatibility, see here.

Installation

1. Create a new Customization in FogBugz.
2. Paste the contents of dist/bugmonkey-markdown.min.txt into the customizations editor.
3. Enable the Customization for yourself.
4. Save, refresh a case page, and you should be ready to go.

Usage

Here's an example of altering the CodeMirror CSS:

localStorage['BugMonkey.Markdown.THEME_URL'] = '//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/codemirror/3.21.0/theme/solarized.min.css';
localStorage['BugMonkey.Markdown.THEME_NAME'] = 'solarized';

Now, next time you refresh, you will use this custom theme.

This behavior is slated to change in v1.2.0

Debugging

Paste dist/bugmonkey-markdown.txt into the editor instead.

Development

You might want to do this if you hate the CSS I picked, or want some other fancy CodeMirror feature.

1. Execute npm install
2. Make edits to any/all of the following:
   1. ./bugmonkey-markdown.js
   2. ./bugmonkey-markdown.css
   3. ./header.txt
3. Execute grunt to output bugmonkey-markdown.txt and bugmonkey-markdown.min.txt into the dist/ directory.
4. Alternatively, execute grunt watch before you start fiddling with files and the dist/*.txt files will be created automatically.
5. Paste the contents of one of the files in the dist/ directory back into FogBugz. Save, refresh, rinse, repeat.
