JIRA Python Library


https://readthedocs.org/projects/jira/badge/?version=master https://api.travis-ci.org/pycontribs/jira.svg?branch=master Requirements Status

This library eases the use of the JIRA REST API from Python and it has been used in production for years.

As this is an open-source project that is community maintained, do not be surprised if some bugs or features are not implemented quickly enough. You are always welcomed to use BountySource to motivate others to help.

Quickstart

Feeling impatient? I like your style.

from jira import JIRA

jira = JIRA('https://jira.atlassian.com')

issue = jira.issue('JRA-9')
print issue.fields.project.key             # 'JRA'
print issue.fields.issuetype.name          # 'New Feature'
print issue.fields.reporter.displayName    # 'Mike Cannon-Brookes [Atlassian]'

Installation

Download and install using pip install jira or easy_install jira

You can also try pip install --user --upgrade jira which will install or upgrade jira to your user directory. Or maybe you ARE using a virtualenv right?

By default only the basic library dependencies are installed, so if you want to use the cli tool or other optional dependencies do perform a full installation using pip install jira[opt,cli,testing]

Usage

See the documentation for full details.

Development

Development takes place on GitHub, where the git-flow branch structure is used:

  • master - contains the latest released code.
  • develop - (default branch) is used for development of the next release.
  • feature/XXX - feature branches are used for development of new features before they are merged to develop.
