Polarion Settings
This page configures the connection of the "Management - Polarion Interface" plugin to a Polarion server.
You find these under "Extras" → "Settings" → "Plugins" → "Management - Polarion Interface".
Show Polarion items in the Main Menu
Show any of the Polarion menu items in the main, toolbar and popup menus. Disable this, if you do not use Polarion, to keep the menus smaller (the items will still be found in the plugin menu). The default is off.
Use Saved Setup
Loads a previously remembered setup configuration (see "Remember (as)" below) into the connection fields (host, port, services path, user and password). This is useful if you have multiple Polarion servers or accounts to communicate with.
Connection
Host/URL
The host, on which the Polarion service is running. The default is "localhost".
Port
The HTTP port. Usually 80, 8080 or 9090, but ask your Polarion administrator. The value must be in the range 1 to 65535; the default is 80.
Services Path
The path extension for where on the host the services are reachable.
Usually "/polarion/ws/services/" (which is the default). The path must end with a "/"-character.
User
Your Polarion account's user name (this may or may not be your login name). The default is the name of the user who is logged in to the operating system.
Password
Your Polarion account's password (this may or may not be your login password).
Attention: if you enter a password here, it could be retrieved by a knowledgeable hacker from your settings file. Leave the field empty to be asked later, when Polarion is contacted. You will have to enter the password only once per expecco session.
Login
Tries to log in to Polarion, using the above connection settings. While the login is in progress, an "Abort" button is shown, which cancels the attempt. The result ("Successful", "Failed" or "Canceled") is shown to the right of the buttons. If the login fails, a "Detail Information" area appears at the bottom of the dialog, showing the reason.
Notice that the connection values entered are made known to the plugin when you press "Login" and when the settings are accepted.
Remember (as)
Gives the current configuration (host, port, services path, user and password) a name and remembers it.
The name is taken from the entry field right of the button; if it is empty, a name of the form "user@host:port" is generated.
Remembering a setup under an already existing name replaces the previous one.
Remembered setups can be quickly loaded by selecting them in the "Use Saved Setup" list above.
