Added ability to hide completed stories from the task board

[zenocide17]

I've added the ability to hide completed User Stories. This is a customization we've built for our internal use on Rally SaaS, but I've seen other desire this on the Rally ideas site. Initiating this Pull Request in the hopes that it can be bundled into the standard task board.

Hey zenocide17,

I'm a product owner at Rally. I examined the code for the task board and we cannot replace the current version with yours. Take a look at this code snippet.

        switch(value.FormattedID.substring(0,2))

        {

            case "US":

                storyType = "userstory";

                break;

            case "DE":

                storyType = "defect";

                break;

        }

Notice the hard coded US and DE. As soon as you change those artifact shorthands the clickable links break. A lot of our customers use 'S' to delineate a user story. Thanks for your pull request!

Thanks for the feedback! I checked the code attached to this issue and commit, and I'm not seeing the code that you have mentioned. Do your concerns apply to #2 ? In either case...

I didn't realize that these were even customizable fields until now! Is there way to programmatically retrieve the User Story and Defect prefix values? If not, is there a way for a custom HTML app to have settings? If so I could tweak the code to have these be configurable values, however I don't know of a way of managing settings in custom HTML apps....

Yes, they apply to #2. I was looking at the code that you posted on the rally idea. You can get the prefix by querying the type definition endpoint for user stories, tasks and defects. You will need to know the object ID for those type definitions. The query looks something like this: https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/1.40/typedefinition/ObjectID.js

Then, you can look for the IDPrefix key in the response and that should get you the values you need for the case in the code snippet above.
