NAME
RT::Extension::ShiftPlanning - Filter a user list to find those who are on shift
VERSION
Version 0.01
SYNOPSIS
Given a list of RT::User, return those who're on shift:
ClockedInOrScheduled(LocationIdByName('Level1'), @list_of_RT_users);
Given an RT::Group:
ClockedInOrScheduled($ShiftID, @{$theGroup->UserMembersObj->ItemsArrayRef});
To return pager phone numbers only for those users on shift who have pager phone numbers set:
map { $_->PagerPhone }
ClockedInOrScheduled $ShiftId
grep { $_->PagerPhone }
@{$theGroup->UserMembersObj->ItemsArrayRef};
DESCRIPTION
Filters a user list using shiftplanning data and polls shiftplanning to get updated shift data.

Functions
ClockedInOrScheduled
ClockedInOrScheduled($ShiftId, @RTUserObjects)
Takes a list of RT users and filters it to return only those who are on shift according to a cached copy of the ShiftPlanning.com shift state, returning the filtered list.
The logic we want for selecting who to notify is as follows:
- Return true if the user is clocked in to one of the specified shifts - Return true if the user is clocked in and not on any particular shift (i.e. remember to clock out, people!) - Otherwise return false
We map RT users to ShiftPlanning.com users using the ShiftplanningEmployeeId custom field in the RT::User.
It's entirely possible for an empty array to be returned if none of the users passed are on shift. Callers should have a fallback plan to ignore shifts and alert everyone.
You might want to use this as part of a template that decides who gets notified, like we do with Pushover:
use RT::Extension::ShiftPlanning;
my @recips;
push(@recips, @{$Ticket->AdminCc->UserMembersObj->ItemsArrayRef});
push(@recips, @{$Ticket->QueueObj->AdminCc->UserMembersObj->ItemsArrayRef});
my @recip_api_keys =
map { $_->FirstCustomFieldValue('PushoverUserKey') }
RT::Extension::ShiftPlanning::ClockedInOrScheduled(
'24x7 L1', @recips
);
# Return comma separated list of unique API keys
join ',', keys %{{ map { $_ => 1 } @recip_api_keys }};
(Yes, this should be neatly grouped up somewhere else).
RefreshScheduleData
Fetch mostly-static shift data from shiftplanning.com - the mapping of "Location" (which we use to aggregate shifts of the same type) to "Positions", which are shifts.
Hits the shiftplanning api calls location.locations and schedule.schedules .
We look up who is on shift by location and the dashboard.onnow function returns only positions, so we need this data to determine which positions correspond to the "location" (shift) of interest.
It's also used for LocationIdByName .
RefreshOnnowData
Fetch the rapidly changing dashboard.onnow data from shiftplanning, getting the latest info on who is clocked in or should be clocked in.
