# go-jira [](https://godoc.org/github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira) [](https://travis-ci.org/andygrunwald/go-jira) [](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira) [](https://coveralls.io/github/andygrunwald/go-jira?branch=master) [Go](https://golang.org/) client library for [Atlassian JIRA](https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira).  ## Features * Authentication (HTTP Basic, OAuth, Session Cookie) * Create and receive issues * Create and retrieve issue transitions (status updates) * Call every API endpoint of the JIRA, even it is not directly implemented in this library This package is not JIRA API complete (yet), but you can call every API endpoint you want. See [Call a not implemented API endpoint](#call-a-not-implemented-api-endpoint) how to do this. For all possible API endpoints of JRIA have a look at [latest JIRA REST API documentation](https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/). ## Compatible JIRA versions This package was tested against JIRA v6.3.4 and v7.1.2. ## Installation It is go gettable $ go get github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira (optional) to run unit / example tests: $ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira $ go test -v ./... ## API Please have a look at the [GoDoc documentation](https://godoc.org/github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira) for a detailed API description. The [latest JIRA REST API documentation](https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/) was the base document for this package. ## Examples Further a few examples how the API can be used. A few more examples are available in the [GoDoc examples section](https://godoc.org/github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira#pkg-examples). ### Get a single issue Lets retrieve [MESOS-3325](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3325) from the [Apache Mesos](http://mesos.apache.org/) project. ```go package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira" ) func main() { jiraClient, _ := jira.NewClient(nil, "https://issues.apache.org/jira/") issue, _, _ := jiraClient.Issue.Get("MESOS-3325", nil) fmt.Printf("%s: %+v\n", issue.Key, issue.Fields.Summary) fmt.Printf("Type: %s\n", issue.Fields.Type.Name) fmt.Printf("Priority: %s\n", issue.Fields.Priority.Name) // MESOS-3325: Running mesos-slave@0.23 in a container causes slave to be lost after a restart // Type: Bug // Priority: Critical } ``` ### Authenticate with jira Some actions require an authenticated user. #### Authenticate with basic auth Here is an example with a basic auth authentification. ```go package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira" ) func main() { jiraClient, err := jira.NewClient(nil, "https://your.jira-instance.com/") if err != nil { panic(err) } jiraClient.Authentication.SetBasicAuth("username", "password") issue, _, err := jiraClient.Issue.Get("SYS-5156", nil) if err != nil { panic(err) } fmt.Printf("%s: %+v\n", issue.Key, issue.Fields.Summary) } ``` #### Authenticate with session cookie Here is an example with a session cookie authentification. ```go package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira" ) func main() { jiraClient, err := jira.NewClient(nil, "https://your.jira-instance.com/") if err != nil { panic(err) } res, err := jiraClient.Authentication.AcquireSessionCookie("username", "password") if err != nil || res == false { fmt.Printf("Result: %v\n", res) panic(err) } issue, _, err := jiraClient.Issue.Get("SYS-5156", nil) if err != nil { panic(err) } fmt.Printf("%s: %+v\n", issue.Key, issue.Fields.Summary) } ``` ### Create an issue Example how to create an issue. ```go package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira" ) func main() { jiraClient, err := jira.NewClient(nil, "https://your.jira-instance.com/") if err != nil { panic(err) } res, err := jiraClient.Authentication.AcquireSessionCookie("username", "password") if err != nil || res == false { fmt.Printf("Result: %v\n", res) panic(err) } i := jira.Issue{ Fields: &jira.IssueFields{ Assignee: &jira.User{ Name: "myuser", }, Reporter: &jira.User{ Name: "youruser", }, Description: "Test Issue", Type: jira.IssueType{ ID: "60", }, Project: jira.Project{ Name: "PROJ1", }, Summary: "Just a demo issue", }, } issue, _, err := jiraClient.Issue.Create(&i) if err != nil { panic(err) } fmt.Printf("%s: %+v\n", issue.Key, issue.Fields.Summary) } ``` ### Call a not implemented API endpoint Not all API endpoints of the JIRA API are implemented into *go-jira*. But you can call them anyway: Lets get all public projects of [Atlassian`s JIRA instance](https://jira.atlassian.com/). ```go package main import ( "fmt" "github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira" ) func main() { jiraClient, _ := jira.NewClient(nil, "https://jira.atlassian.com/") req, _ := jiraClient.NewRequest("GET", "/rest/api/2/project", nil) projects := new([]jira.Project) _, err := jiraClient.Do(req, projects) if err != nil { panic(err) } for _, project := range *projects { fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", project.Key, project.Name) } // ... // BAM: Bamboo // BAMJ: Bamboo JIRA Plugin // CLOV: Clover // CONF: Confluence // ... } ``` ## Implementations * [andygrunwald/jitic](https://github.com/andygrunwald/jitic) - The JIRA Ticket Checker ## Code structure The code structure of this package was inspired by [google/go-github](https://github.com/google/go-github). There is one main part (the client). Based on this main client the other endpoints, like Issues or Authentication are extracted in services. E.g. `IssueService` or `AuthenticationService`. These services own a responsibility of the single endpoints / usecases of JIRA. ## Contribution Contribution, in any kind of way, is highly welcome! It doesn't matter if you are not able to write code. Creating issues or holding talks and help other people to use [go-jira](https://github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira) is contribution, too! A few examples: * Correct typos in the README / documentation * Reporting bugs * Implement a new feature or endpoint * Sharing the love if [go-jira](https://github.com/andygrunwald/go-jira) and help people to get use to it If you are new to pull requests, checkout [Collaborating on projects using issues and pull requests / Creating a pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/). ## License This project is released under the terms of the [MIT license](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_License).
