NAME

RT::CustomFieldValues::External - Pull possible values for a custom field from an arbitrary external data source.

SYNOPSIS

Custom field value lists can be produced by creating a class that inherits from RT::CustomFieldValues::External, and overloading SourceDescription and ExternalValues. See RT::CustomFieldValues::Groups for a simple example.

DESCRIPTION

Subclasses should implement the following methods:

SourceDescription

This method should return a string describing the data source; this is the identifier by which the user will see the dropdown.

ExternalValues

This method should return an array reference of hash references. The hash references should contain keys for name, description, and sortorder.
