JiraToExcel

Importer of data from jira into excel. Single file excel template.

VBA script only, for easy "deployment". Easily configurable. Queries Jira directly, parses resulting XML (implements IVBSAXContentHandler). Fast.

###Setup (see image below):

  • Download / copy to drive then open file in excel. Be sure to enable macros (click options in "Security Warning" bar)
  • Open worksheet/tab "Con": Enter (a) URL to your server, (b) username and (c) password.
  • Open sample sheet "Sheet2", go to cell F1 (named jql_1). Enter your projectname or any other jira JQL you want to use.
  • Optional: Review columns/fields in row 3 (and edit headers in row 4) as needed.
  • Click Do Import button.

###Some points to code:

  • Has tests - support for running integration tests if you want to develop further. You need to get test XML yourself (easy).
  • Robust and pretty fast implementation for a VBA, uses/implements Microsoft.XML SAX parser
  • Fairly OO code. Pro: Easily expandable to do new things. Con: Takes a little time to grok code design.
