3 CLI support for JIRA interaction
7 This plugin provides command line tools for interacting with Atlassian's [JIRA](https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira) bug tracking software.
9 The interaction is all done through the web. No local installation of JIRA is necessary.
11 In this document, "JIRA" refers to the JIRA issue tracking server, and `jira` refers to the command this plugin supplies.
15 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.
18 jira # performs the default action
20 jira new # opens a new issue
21 jira dashboard # opens your JIRA dashboard
22 jira tempo # opens your JIRA Tempo
23 jira reported [username] # queries for issues reported by a user
24 jira assigned [username] # queries for issues assigned to a user
25 jira myissues # queries for you own issues
26 jira branch # opens an existing issue matching the current branch name
27 # The branch name may have prefixes ending in "/": "feature/MP-1234",
28 # and also suffixes starting with "_": "MP-1234_fix_dashboard"
29 # In both these cases, the issue opened will be "MP-1234"
30 jira ABC-123 # opens an existing issue
31 jira ABC-123 m # opens an existing issue for adding a comment
34 #### Debugging usage ####
36 These calling forms are for developers' use, and may change at any time.
39 jira dumpconfig # displays the effective configuration
44 The URL for your JIRA instance is set by `$JIRA_URL` or a `.jira_url` file.
46 Add a `.jira-url` file in the base of your project. You can also set `$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.
48 The same goes with `.jira-prefix` and `$JIRA_PREFIX`. These control the prefix added to all issue IDs, which differentiates projects within a JIRA instance.
54 echo "https://jira.atlassian.com" >> .jira-url
57 (Note: The current implementation only looks in the current directory for `.jira-url` and `.jira-prefix`, not up the path, so if you are in a subdirectory of your project, it will fall back to your default JIRA URL. This will probably change in the future though.)
61 * `$JIRA_URL` - Your JIRA instance's URL
62 * `$JIRA_NAME` - Your JIRA username; used as the default user for `assigned`/`reported` searches
63 * `$JIRA_PREFIX` - Prefix added to issue ID arguments
64 * `$JIRA_RAPID_BOARD` - Set to `true` if you use Rapid Board
65 * `$JIRA_DEFAULT_ACTION` - Action to do when `jira` is called with no arguments; defaults to "new"
70 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.
