Tracker: Implement autocompleted feature for comments mentions
Problem
In Tracker comments, you can ping somebody by simply doing @username. The problem is you must be aware about this. Something like autocompleter poping up after typing @ would be nice, similar how it works on Phabricator.
Proposed solution
Implement the feature. You can use Tracker's API (/api/auth/users/
) to get the list of users.
Student is expected to send a patch for wikimedia-cz/tracker
repository, hosted at Wikimedia Gerrit. When claiming task on GCI website, student should claim a respective Phabricator task as well.
Materials
