bugwarrior 0.5.8

Sync github, bitbucket, and trac issues with taskwarrior

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

It currently supports the following remote resources:

• github (api v3)

• bitbucket

• trac

• bugzilla

• megaplan

• teamlab

• redmine

• jira

• activecollab 2.x

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, bz.redhat

# log.level specifices the verbosity.  The default is DEBUG.
# log.level can be one of DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL, DISABLED
#log.level = DEBUG

# If log.file is specified, output will be redirected there.  If it remains
# unspecified, output is sent to sys.stderr
#log.file = /var/log/bugwarrior.log

# The bitly username and api key are used to shorten URLs to the issues for your
# task list.  If you leave these options commented out, then the full URLs
# will be used in 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
default_priority = H

# Note that login and username can be different.  I can login as me, but
# scrape issues from an organization's repos.
login = ralphbean
passw = OMG_LULZ

# This is the same thing, but for bitbucket.  Each target entry must have a
# 'service' attribute which must be one of the supported services (like
# 'github', 'bitbucket', 'trac', etc...).
[my_bitbucket]
service = bitbucket
username = ralphbean
default_priority = M

# 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
default_priority = L

# 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
default_priority = H

# Here's an example of a bugzilla target.  This will scrape every ticket
# 1) that is not closed and 2) that [e-mail] is either the
# owner or reporter or is cc'd on.  Bugzilla instances can be quite different
# from one another so use this with caution and please report bugs so we can
# make bugwarrior support more robust!
[bz.redhat]
service = bugzilla

bugzilla.base_uri = bugzilla.redhat.com
bugzilla.username = [e-mail]
bugzilla.password = OMG_LULZ

# Here's an example of a megaplan target.
[my_megaplan]
service = megaplan

hostname = example.megaplan.ru
login = alice
password = secret

default_priority = H
project_name = example

# Here's an example of a jira project. The ``jira-python`` module is
# a bit particular, and jira deployments, like Bugzilla, tend to be
# reasonably customized. So YMMV. The ``base_uri`` must not have a
# have a trailing slash. In this case we fetch comments and
# cases from jira assigned to 'ralph' where the status is not closed or
# resolved.
[jira.project]
service = jira
jira.base_uri = https://jira.example.org
jira.username = ralph
jira.password = OMG_LULZ
jira.query = assignee = ralph and status != closed and status != resolved

# Here's an example of a teamlab target.
[my_teamlab]
service = teamlab

hostname = teamlab.example.com
login = alice
password = secret

project_name = example_teamlab

# Here's an example of a redmine target.
[my_redmine]
service = redmine
url = http://redmine.example.org/
key = c0c4c014cafebabe
user_id = 7
project_name = redmine

# Here's an example of an activecollab2 target. Note that this will only work
# with ActiveCollab 2.x and *not* with ActiveCollab 3.x.
#
# You can obtain your user ID and API url by logging into ActiveCollab and
# clicking on "Profile" and then "API Settings". When on that page, look
# at the URL. The integer that appears after "/user/" is your user ID.
#
# Projects should be entered in a comma-separated list, with the project
# id as the key and the name you'd like to use for the project in Taskwarrior
# entered as the value. For example, if the project ID is 8 and the project's
# name in ActiveCollab is "Amazing Website" then you might enter 8:amazing_website
#
# Note that due to limitations in the ActiveCollab API, there is no simple way
# to get a list of all tasks you are responsible for in AC. Instead you need to
# look at each ticket that you are subscribed to and check to see if your
# user ID is responsible for the ticket/task. What this means is that if you
# have 5 projects you want to query and each project has 20 tickets, you'll
# make 100 API requests each time you run `bugwarrior-pull`

[activecollab2]
service = activecollab2
url = http://ac.example.org/api.php
key = your-api-key
user_id = 15
projects = 1:first_project, 5:another_project

Using

Just run bugwarrior-pull.

It’s ideal to create a cron task like:

*/15 * * * *  /usr/bin/bugwarrior-pull
