Jr is a gem to assist in reporting from JIRA on ticket counts, availability of engineers, and current work. It is mostly specific to Instructure's usage of JIRA.
It relies on two things: a .jrrc file in your $HOME directory,
and $JIRA_USERNAME and $JIRA_PASSWORD environment variables.
In your .jrrc file, you define a JSON object, whose root keys are
the names of your projects. Each project relies on two keys: a site
attribute, which specifies the root url of your JIRA instance, and a jql
attribute, which is a JQL string that will specify the issues that will
be pulled for reporting of that particular project.
Tasks are the reporting commands you can supply to Jr on the command line. There are currently three tasks:
allReports all tickets that match the project's specified JQL.currentReports the current tickets from the project that are being worked on, with the ticket id, assignee, summary, and time since creation.pointsReports the total, active, and closed story points in the specified project.
