Badges/labels for work item task board "cards" #38

Open pinkfloydx33 opened 5 years ago

pinkfloydx33 commented 5 years ago

We have a custom work item state ("blocked") that we would like to highlight in the UI. Ideally we'd like to add some sort of badge that displays next to / with the work item in the Work item and task boards screens, for example showing a big red label on the item's "card" in the sprint task board view. Is this a possible extension point? And if so, what contribution type would this be? I'm having difficulty googling for an example as I'm not sure what I should be looking for.

We handle this by having a tag for Blocked and then configuring a Style to turn the whole card red if the Blocked tag is present. You should be able to do something similar with a custom state.

It would be good to have badges for builds and deployments on task and bug cards.
