Prior to this update, this naming convention was inconsistent and easily confused.</p> <p>Please update your code accordingly.</p> <h2>Installation</h2> <p>Install with <a href="http://npmjs.org/">npm</a>:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source"><code> $ npm install jira-connector</code></pre> <p>Install via Git clone:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source"><code> $ git clone https://github.com/floralvikings/jira-connector.git $ cd jira-connector $ npm install</code></pre> <h2>Documentation</h2> <p>The documentation for jira-connector can be found in the source; If you'd like to view the source as an HTML document, you can use <a href="http://usejsdoc.org/">JSDoc</a> to generate these pages. Simply run:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source"><code> $ jsdoc -c jsdoc.json</code></pre> <p>In the jira-connector source directory. This will create a <code>docs</code> directory, containing the HTML markup for the docs.</p> <p>Also, the <a href="https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/">official Jira API docs</a> are very useful; many of the functions in jira-connector use the exact same format as the request bodies of these endpoints.</p> <h2>Example</h2> <p>Retrieve an issue from Jira, and print its summary to the console.</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code> var JiraClient = require('jira-connector'); var jira = new JiraClient( { host: 'jenjinstudios.atlassian.net' }); jira.issue.getIssue({ issueKey: 'JWR-19' }, function(error, issue) { console.log(issue.fields.summary); });</code></pre> <p>First, the <code>JiraApi</code> class is imported from the <code>jira-connector</code> module. This class provides access to the Jira REST endpoints, organized into related classes.</p> <p>The <code>issue</code> property of the <code>JiraApi</code> class is used to retrieve and modify Jira Issues.</p> <p>All of the methods in the jira-connector API classes take two arguments; the <code>opts</code> and <code>callback</code>. </p> <ul> <li>The <code>opts</code> argument specifies the options that will be used when communicating with the Jira API. For a detailed list of options, see the documentation for the method into which you are passing the options. </li> <li>The <code>callback</code> argument should be a function expecting two arguments; and error, and the results of the API request. </li> </ul> <h2>Authentication</h2> <p>Depending on the Jira instance to which you are connecting, authentication may or may not be required for various API calls.</p> <p>jira-connector supports two forms of authentication:</p> <h3>Basic Authentication</h3> <p>This is not recommended; it will require you to provide a username and password each time you connect to the Jira instance. However, jira-connector supports it for users who are unable to use OAuth.</p> <p>Example:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>var JiraClient = require('jira-connector'); var jira = new JiraClient( { host: 'jenjinstudios.atlassian.net', basic_auth: { username: 'SirUserOfName', password: 'Password123' } });</code></pre> <h3>Basic Authentication (Base64)</h3> <p>Also not recommended, but slightly better than the above; it will require you to provide a Base64 encoded username and password (a Base64 encoding in the format of "username:password") each time you connect to the Jira instance.</p> <p>More examples <a href="https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-apis/jira-rest-apis/jira-rest-api-tutorials/jira-rest-api-example-basic-authentication">here</a>. </p> <p>Example:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>var JiraClient = require('jira-connector'); var jira = new JiraClient( { host: 'jenjinstudios.atlassian.net', basic_auth: { base64: 'U2lyVXNlck9mTmFtZTpQYXNzd29yZDEyMw==' } }); // Base64 encoding of 'SirUserOfName:Password123'</code></pre> <h3>OAuth Authentication</h3> <p>This should be the preferred method of authentication; it is more secure and does not require disclosing your password.</p> <p>However, setting up OAuth access in Jira can be somewhat complicated; first the Jira administrator must create an Application Link; for instructions on how to do this, see <a href="https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Linking+to+Another+Application">Linking to Another Application</a>.</p> <p><a href="https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/JIRA+REST+API+Example+-+OAuth+authentication">This example</a> may also be helpful in configuring OAuth Access.</p> <p>Once the Application Link has been created, you will need the private key that corresponds to the public key used to create the link, and the consumer key that was provided when the link was created.</p> <p>Once you have this data, you will need to generate an OAuth token and secret for your account; jira-connector provides helper functions for exactly this purpose:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>var JiraClient = require('./index.js'); JiraClient.oauth_util.getAuthorizeURL({ host: 'jenjinstudios.atlassian.net', oauth: { consumer_key: 'your-consumer-key', private_key: '-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n' + 'SomePrivateKeyHere\n' + '-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----' } }, function (error, oauth) { console.log(oauth); });</code></pre> <p>This will output something similar to the following:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>{ url: 'https://jenjinstudios.atlassian.net/plugins/servlet/oauth/authorize?oauth_token=some-token-here', token: 'some-token-here', token_secret: 'some-secret-here' }</code></pre> <p>You can then visit the specified URL, which will display a page asking you to allow or deny the request for access. Allowing access will display a verifier code. Once you have this code, you can swap out your current OAuth token for an Access Token with all the permissions of your account; jira-connector provides a function to help with this:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>var JiraClient = require('./index.js'); JiraClient.oauth_util.swapRequestTokenWithAccessToken({ host: 'jenjinstudios.atlassian.net', oauth: { token: 'your-oauth-token', token_secret: 'your-token-secret', oauth_verifier: 'verifier-code-from-jira', consumer_key: 'your-consumer-key', private_key: '-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n' + 'SomePrivateKeyHere\n' + '-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----' } }, function (error, accessToken) { console.log(accessToken); });</code></pre> <p>This will query Jira for an Access Token, which will then be printed to the screen. Finally, you're ready to access Jira with OAuth!</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>var JiraClient = require('./index.js'); var jira = new JiraClient({ host: 'jenjinstudios.atlassian.net', oauth: { consumer_key: 'your-consumer-key', private_key: '-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n' + 'SomePrivateKey\n' + '-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----', token: 'your-access-token', token_secret: 'your-token-secret' } }); // Jira is now authenticted with your account!</code></pre> <h3>Cookie Jar</h3> <p>You can also use a Cookie Jar for your request. It could be an easier way to prompt for a login only once, without the pain of setting up an OAuth method.</p> <p>For example, using <code>though-cookie-filestore</code>:</p> <pre class="prettyprint source lang-javascript"><code>var JiraClient = require('../jira-connector'), FileCookieStore = require('tough-cookie-filestore'), request = require('request'), path = require('path'); var jar = request.jar(new FileCookieStore(path.join(__dirname, 'cookies.json'))); // For the first connection var jira = new JiraClient( { host: 'jenjinstudios.atlassian.net', basic_auth: { username: 'SirUserOfName', password: 'Password123' }, cookie_jar: jar }); // For the following connections var jira = new JiraClient( { host: 'jenjinstudios.atlassian.net', cookie_jar: jar });</code></pre> <p>In this example, all your cookies are save in a file, <code>cookies.json</code>. Currently, the file <strong>MUST</strong> exist, it's a limitation from <code>though-cookie-filestore</code>...</p> <p>You can now only use the Cookie Jar for all the following request, as long as the file exists and the cookie is still valid!</p> <h2>Supported API Calls</h2> <ul> <li>applicationProperties (/rest/api/2/application-properties) <ul> <li>getProperties</li> <li>setProperty</li> </ul>
