##Overview

This module allows you to install, upgrade and manage Atlassian JIRA.

##Module Description

This module installs/upgrades Atlassian's Enterprise Issue Tracking and project management tool. The JIRA module also manages the JIRA configuration files with Puppet.

##Setup

###JIRA Prerequisites

JIRA requires a Java Developers Kit (JDK) or Java Run-time Environment (JRE) platform to be installed on your server's operating system. Oracle JDK / JRE (formerly Sun JDK / JRE) versions 7 and 8 are currently supported by Atlassian.
JIRA requires a relational database to store its issue data. This module currently supports PostgreSQL 8.4 to 9.x and MySQL 5.x and Oracle 11g and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 & 2012. We suggest using puppetlabs-postgresql/puppetlabs-mysql modules to configure/manage the database. The module uses PostgreSQL as a default.
Whilst not required, for production use we recommend using nginx/apache as a reverse proxy to JIRA. We suggest using the jfryman/nginx puppet module.

###What JIRA affects

If installing to an existing JIRA instance, it is your responsibility to backup your database. We also recommend that you backup your JIRA home directory and that you align your current JIRA version with the version you intend to use with puppet JIRA module.

You must have your database setup with the account user that JIRA will use. This can be done using the puppetlabs-postgresql and puppetlabs-mysql modules.

When using this module to upgrade JIRA, please make sure you have a database/JIRA home backup.

When using MySQL, We call the jira::mysql_connector class to install the MySQL java connector directory from mysql.com as per Atlassian's documented recommendations.

###Beginning with JIRA

This puppet module will automatically download the JIRA zip from Atlassian and extracts it into /opt/jira/atlassian-jira-$version. The default JIRA home is /home/jira.

If you would prefer to use Hiera then see jira.yaml file for available options.

#####Basic example

  class { 'jira':
    javahome    => '/opt/java',
  }

#####Upgrades

######Upgrades to JIRA

Jira can be upgraded by incrementing this version number. This will STOP the running instance of Jira and attempt to upgrade. You should take caution when doing large version upgrades. Always backup your database and your home directory. The jira::facts class is required for upgrades.

  class { 'jira':
    javahome    => '/opt/java',
    version     => '6.3.7',
  }
  class { 'jira::facts': }

######Upgrades to the JIRA puppet Module mkrakowitzer-deploy has been replaced with nanliu-staging as the default module for deploying the JIRA binaries. You can still use mkrakowitzer-deploy with the deploy_module => 'archive'

  class { 'jira':
    javahome      => '/opt/java',
    deploy_module => 'archive',
  }

####Private Classes

jira::install: Installs JIRA binaries
jira::config: Modifies jira/tomcat configuration files
jira::service: Manage the JIRA service.
jira::mysql_connector: Install/Manage the MySQL Java connector

##Usage

####A more complex example

    class { 'jira':
      version      => '6.0.1',
      installdir   => '/opt/atlassian-jira',
      homedir      => '/opt/atlassian-jira/jira-home',
      user         => 'jira',
      group        => 'jira',
      dbpassword   => 'secret',
      dbserver     => 'localhost',
      javahome     => '/opt/java/jdk1.7.0_21/',
      download_url => 'http://myserver/pub/development-tools/atlassian/',
    }

Hiera examples

This example is used in production for 2000 users in an traditional enterprise environment. Your mileage may vary. The dbpassword can be stored using eyaml hiera extension.

jira::version:       '6.2.7'
jira::installdir:    '/opt/atlassian/atlassian-jira'
jira::homedir:       '/opt/atlassian/application-data/jira-home'
jira::user:          'jira'
jira::group:         'jira'
jira::shell:         '/bin/bash'
jira::dbserver:      'dbvip.example.co.za'
jira::javahome:      '/opt/java'
jira::java_opts: >
  -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy.example.co.za
  -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080
  -Dhttps.proxyHost=proxy.example.co.za
  -Dhttps.proxyPort=8080
  -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=localhost\|127.0.0.1\|172.*.*.*\|10.*.*.*
  -XX:+UseLargePages'
jira::dbport:        '5439'
jira::dbuser:        'jira'
jira::jvm_xms:       '1G'
jira::jvm_xmx:       '3G'
jira::jvm_permgen:   '384m'
jira::service_manage: false
jira::enable_connection_pooling: 'true'
jira::env:
  - 'http_proxy=proxy.example.co.za:8080'
  - 'https_proxy=proxy.example.co.za:8080'
jira::proxy:
  scheme:    'https'
  proxyName: 'jira.example.co.za'
  proxyPort: '443'
jira::contextpath: '/jira'

These additional and substituted parameters are used in production in an traditional enterprise environment with an Oracle 11g remote database and Oracle 8 JDK. Your mileage may vary.

jira::db:            'oracle'
jira::dbname:        '<dbname>'
jira::dbport:        '1526'
jira::dbdriver:      'oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver'
jira::dbtype:        'oracle10g'
jira::dburl:         'jdbc:oracle:thin:@//dbvip.example.co.za:1526/<dbname>'
jira::javahome:      '/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-8-oracle-x64'

Reverse proxy can be configured as a hash as part of the JIRA resource

   proxy          => {
     scheme       => 'https',
     proxyName    => 'www.example.com',
     proxyPort    => '443',
   },

Enable external facts for puppet version. These facts are required to be enabled in order to upgrade to new JIRA versions smoothly.

  class { 'jira::facts': }

##Development

Please feel free to raise any issues here for bug fixes. We also welcome feature requests. Feel free to make a pull request for anything and we make the effort to review and merge. We prefer with tests if possible.

##Testing - How to test the JIRA module Using puppetlabs_spec_helper. Simply run:

bundle install && bundle exec rake spec

to get results.

ruby-1.9.3-p484/bin/ruby -S rspec spec/classes/jira_install_spec.rb --color

Using Beaker - Puppet Labs cloud enabled acceptance testing tool..

The beaker tests will install oracle Java to /opt/java. When running the beaker tests you agree that you accept the oracle java license.

bundle install
BEAKER_set=ubuntu-server-12042-x64 bundle exec rake beaker
BEAKER_set=ubuntu-server-1404-x64 bundle exec rake beaker
BEAKER_set=debian-73-x64 bundle exec rake beaker
BEAKER_set=centos-64-x64 bundle exec rake beaker
BEAKER_set=centos-70-x64 bundle exec rake beaker
BEAKER_set=centos-64-x64-pe bundle exec rake beaker

To save build time it is useful to host the installation files locally on a web server. You can use the download_url environment variable to overwrite the default.

export download_url="'http://my.local.server/'"
