bugwarrior 0.1b6

Sync github, bitbucket, and trac issues with taskwarrior

This is a command line utility for updating your local taskwarrior database from your forge issue trackers.

Getting bugwarrior

Installing from the Python Package Index

Installing it from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bugwarrior is easy with pip:

$ pip install bugwarrior

Alternatively, you can use easy_install if you prefer:

$ easy_install bugwarrior

Installing from Source

You can find the source on github at http://github.com/ralphbean/bugwarrior. Either fork/clone if you plan to do development on bugwarrior, or you can simply download the latest tarball:

$ wget https://github.com/ralphbean/bugwarrior/tarball/master -O bugwarrior-latest.tar.gz
$ tar -xzvf bugwarrior-latest.tar.gz
$ cd ralphbean-bugwarrior-*
$ python setup.py install

Configuring

Create a ~/.bugwarriorrc file with the following contents.

# Example ~/.bugwarriorrc
#

# General stuff.
[general]
# Here you define a comma separated list of targets.  Each of them must have a
# section below determining their properties, how to query them, etc.  The name
# is just a symbol, and doesn't have any functional importance.
targets = my_github, my_bitbucket, paj_bitbucket, moksha_trac

# The bitly username and api key are used to shorten URLs to the issues for your
# task list.
bitly.api_user = YOUR_USERNAME
bitly.api_key = YOUR_API_KEY

# This is a github example.  It says, "scrape every issue from every repository
# on http://github.com/ralphbean.  It doesn't matter if ralphbean owns the issue
# or not."
[my_github]
service = github
username = ralphbean

# This is the same thing, but for bitbucket.  Each target entry must have a
# 'service' attribute which must be one of 'github', 'bitbucket', or 'trac'.
[my_bitbucket]
service = bitbucket
username = ralphbean

# Here's another bitbucket one.  Here we want to scrape the issues from repos of
# another user, but only include them in the taskwarrior db if they're assigned
# to me.
[paj_bitbucket]
service = bitbucket
username = paj
only_if_assigned = ralphbean

# Here's an example of a trac target.  Scrape every ticket and only include them
# if 1) they're owned by me or 2) they're currently unassigned.
# Note -- You must have the trac XML-RPC plugin installed and configured to work
# over HTTP.
[moksha_trac]
service = trac

trac.base_uri = fedorahosted.org/moksha
trac.username = ralph
trac.password = OMG_LULZ

only_if_assigned = ralph
also_unassigned = True

Using

Just run bugwarrior-pull.

It’s ideal to create a cron task like:

*/15 * * * *  /usr/bin/bugwarrior-pull 2>&1 | /usr/bin/logger -t bugwarrior
