Lazy Pagination of Jira Issues

If you are querying a lot of jira issues. Paginating the results can lighten the memory usage on the Jira server. But needing to keep track of the pagination is painful. Using lazy pagination gives you an iterable that can track pagination for you:

import jirapt

jira = # jira server instance.
jql = "JQL query"

issues = jirapt.search_issues(jira, jql, ...) # you can include any parameters you might pass to search_issues.

for issue in issues:
    # perform work on issue

Note: You gather results in parallel by specifying n_threads=N. This will gather all the results before starting iteration. So there will be a delay before the first iteration starts and all the results will need to fit into memory.
