Python JIRA Library is the easiest way to automate JIRA. Support for py27 was dropped on 2019-10-14, do not raise bugs related to it. Show that you care about the future of the library by donating $1, is not about the money!

https://readthedocs.org/projects/jira/badge/?version=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,test]

Usage

See the documentation for full details.
