Redmine Projects Treeview plugin

This Redmine plugin allows you to show up your projects as a tree.

Initially, only the root projects are determined and displayed in projects overview. This can be helpful when Redmine hosts many projects including sub projects where the fetching and rendering takes a considerable amount of time.

If a root project has sub projects, then they can be lazy loaded via mouse click.

For this plugin a new REST resource /projects/:id/children was introduced, which determines and delivers the available children of given project in JSON format:

{
  "children": [
    {
      "id": 7,
      "name": "MySubProject_01",
      "identifier": "mysubproject_01",
      "has_children": true
    },
    {
      "id": 8,
      "name": "MySubProject_02",
      "identifier": "mysubproject_02",
      "has_children": false
    },
    {
      "id": 9,
      "name": "MySubProject_03",
      "identifier": "mysubproject_03",
      "has_children": false
    },
    {
      "id": 10,
      "name": "MySubProject_04",
      "identifier": "mysubproject_04",
      "has_children": false
    }
  ]
}

The response of this REST resource is used within AJAX call, to manipulate the DOM tree via jQuery.
