# Jira plugin #
|
||
|
|
||
|
CLI support for JIRA interaction
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Description ##
|
||
|
|
||
|
This plugin provides command line tools for interacting with Atlassian's [JIRA](https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira) bug tracking software.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The interaction is all done through the web. No local installation of JIRA is necessary.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In this document, "JIRA" refers to the JIRA issue tracking server, and `jira` refers to the command this plugin supplies.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage ##
|
||
|
|
||
|
This plugin supplies one command, `jira`, through which all its features are exposed. Most forms of this command open a JIRA page in your web browser.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Commands
|
||
|
|
||
|
`jira help` or `jira usage` will print the below usage instructions
|
||
|
|
||
|
| Command | Description |
|
||
|
| :------------ | :-------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
|
| `jira` | Performs the default action |
|
||
|
| `jira new` | Opens a new Jira issue dialogue |
|
||
|
| `jira ABC-123` | Opens an existing issue |
|
||
|
| `jira ABC-123 m` | Opens an existing issue for adding a comment |
|
||
|
| `jira dashboard [rapid_view]` | Opens your JIRA dashboard |
|
||
|
| `jira mine` | Queries for your own issues |
|
||
|
| `jira tempo` | Opens your JIRA Tempo |
|
||
|
| `jira reported [username]` | Queries for issues reported by a user |
|
||
|
| `jira assigned [username]` | Queries for issues assigned to a user |
|
||
|
| `jira branch` | Opens an existing issue matching the current branch name |
|
||
|
| `jira help` | Prints usage instructions |
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Jira Branch usage notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
The branch name may have prefixes ending in "/": "feature/MP-1234", and also suffixes
|
||
|
starting with "_": "MP-1234_fix_dashboard". In both these cases, the issue opened will be "MP-1234"
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is also checks if the prefix is in the name, and adds it if not, so: "MP-1234" opens the issue "MP-1234",
|
||
|
"mp-1234" opens the issue "mp-1234", and "1234" opens the issue "MP-1234".
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Debugging usage ####
|
||
|
|
||
|
These calling forms are for developers' use, and may change at any time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
jira dumpconfig # displays the effective configuration
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Setup ##
|
||
|
|
||
|
The URL for your JIRA instance is set by `$JIRA_URL` or a `.jira_url` file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Add a `.jira-url` file in the base of your project. You can also set `$JIRA_URL` in your `~/.zshrc` or put a `.jira-url` in your home directory. A `.jira-url` in the current directory takes precedence, so you can make per-project customizations.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The same goes with `.jira-prefix` and `$JIRA_PREFIX`. These control the prefix added to all issue IDs, which differentiates projects within a JIRA instance.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
cd to/my/project
|
||
|
echo "https://jira.atlassian.com" >> .jira-url
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
(Note: The current implementation only looks in the current directory for `.jira-url` and `.jira-prefix`, not up the path, so if you are in a subdirectory of your project, it will fall back to your default JIRA URL. This will probably change in the future though.)
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Variables ###
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `$JIRA_URL` - Your JIRA instance's URL
|
||
|
* `$JIRA_NAME` - Your JIRA username; used as the default user for `assigned`/`reported` searches
|
||
|
* `$JIRA_PREFIX` - Prefix added to issue ID arguments
|
||
|
* `$JIRA_RAPID_BOARD` - Set to `true` if you use Rapid Board
|
||
|
* `$JIRA_RAPID_VIEW` - Set the default rapid view; it doesn't work if `$JIRA_RAPID_BOARD` is set to false
|
||
|
* `$JIRA_DEFAULT_ACTION` - Action to do when `jira` is called with no arguments; defaults to "new"
|
||
|
* `$JIRA_TEMPO_PATH` - Your JIRA tempo url path; defaults to "/secure/Tempo.jspa"
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Browser ###
|
||
|
|
||
|
Your default web browser, as determined by how `open_command` handles `http://` URLs, is used for interacting with the JIRA instance. If you change your system's URL handler associations, it will change the browser that `jira` uses.
