Fossil SCM

I want to populate a ticket version selector with tag values from the tag table. It appears to be possilbe to put a 'proc' command in the common definitions for tickets and use it to reture values for a combobox but I don't know how to do a database select on the tag table. Is it possible to do a SELECT inside proc?

The (undocumented) TH scripting language is well-suited for doing this kind of thing. But doing so will require a bit of C code for linking TH with SQLite. Such code does not currently exist in fossil.

This seems like a reasonable enhancement request. I'll look into adding it. You might want to write a ticket to so that I don't forget.

I am going with the assumption that this ticket(7772cc876e) is the aforementioned. As such I offer my "+1" vote to include this and echo Anonymous' comment directly above.

Thank you for Fossil!

Of course, it might be desirable to add checking to this new queryCmd function before giving the string to sqlite.
