NAME Bot::BasicBot::Pluggable::Module::JIRA - Access JIRA via IRC! VERSION This POD describes version 0.02 SYNOPSIS You will need to load the module into your instance: $bot->load('JIRA'); Then feel free to interrogate the shit out of her: purl: what's going on with PRJ-284? diz: PRJ-284 (add jira support to bot) is unresolved - http://jira.domain.com/issue/284 purl: who fixed PRJ-284? diz: gphat marked PRJ-284 as fixed in changeset bbb6a0f9 CONFIGURATION uri The location of the JIRA instance. (Ex, http://jira.domain.com) username User to authenticate against JIRA with. This is configured in JIRA. Note that the user will need permissions to view issues in order to send getIssue requests over the SOAP interface. password The password to use for the user during authentication. Also setup in JIRA (or LDAP if you're using the LDAP linkage). db_dsn (optional) db_user (optional) db_pass (optional) The SOAP API in JIRA is hit or miss. It exposes functionality that I'll never use while omitting other functionality that makes the API seem downright useless. One of the particular egregious omissions happens to be the lack of a remote interface for retrieving the ChangeHistory for an issue. If, however, you configure db_dsn, db_user, and db_pass, this module will attempt to extract that information directly from the database. This isn't recommended and has only been tested with 4.1.2. status_verbs The default inquiry format reports issue status by referring to the last status change in the past tense. By default, the reply uses "changed to" prepended to the status name. Instead of this, you may want the bot to respond using more colloquial language. You may do this by setting status_verbs to a hashref mapping status names to status verb phrases. (ie, { Open => 'opened' }) Any missing pairs default to "changed to". status_colors This one is fun. You may map issue status names to individual IRC colors by setting status_colors to a hashref containing the map. The following colors are understood: * bold * white * black * blue * green * red * brown * purple * orange * yellow * light_green * teal * cyan * light_blue * pink * gray formats Inquiry responses may be custom formatted. The formats configuration item is expected to be a hashref containing key/value pairs for each class of inquiry. The format is rendered using Text::Xslate. Several convienient xslate functions have also been provided. In addition to a function for each of the individual color names above, the following functions are available: * colorize colors the given text according to the configured status_colors The RemoteIssue object returned by JIRA::CLient is the root context of the template rendering, with the following keys added to the hashref: * issue (shortcut for key) * version (shortcut for the first fixVersion listed) * status_name (the issue's current status) * status_verb (the issue's current status in the past tense) If you've enabled the DBI options above, these are also available to you: * status_last_changed_user (user that most recently changed the issue status) * status_last_changed_datetime (DateTime object for the most recent status change) More details on the RemoteIssue object may be found in the JIRA docs: http://docs.atlassian.com/rpc-jira-plugin/4.1-1/com/atlassian/jira/rpc/s oap/beans/RemoteIssue.html Most all accessors methods on the RemoteIssue object are available in the stash as keys of the hashref. For example, getAssignee may be accessed in xslate like: <: $assignee :> The getComponents method, which returns a list of components, may be accessed using similar perl/xslate idioms: <: $components.0 :> The default inquiry format is: <: colorize($issue) :> [<: $version :>] <: bold($summary) :> for <: $assignee :> which produces replies such as: PRJ-284 [Unscheduled] add jira to bot for diz The default status format is: <: $issue :> [<: $version :>] was <: $status_verb :> by <: $status_last_changed_user :> on <: $status_last_changed_datetime.strftime("%Y %b %d (%a) at %l:%M %P") :> which produces replies such as: PRJ-284 [Unscheduled] was closed by diz on 2010 Sep 13 (Mon) at 1:26 pm BUGS Probably a lot of them. The test suite does nothing beyond what Module::Starter already provides.
