JIRA + Git flow + Gitlab Integration

Installation

Hopefully you have nodejs installed already.

npm install -g packetloop/jira

Configuration:

Set following ENV vars (add these to your .bashrc and change whatever needed)

export JIRA_URL=url
export JIRA_TOKEN=user:pass
export GITLAB_URL=url
export GITLAB_TOKEN=token
export GITLAB_PING_FRONTEND="@list @of @users @to @ping @on @each @review"
#export GITLAB_PING_DEFAULT="$GITLAB_PING_FRONTEND"
export GITLAB_PING_DEFAULT="Hello, @everyone!"

Usage

jira start AB-1234

# do something, commit, push. This will set description to $GITLAB_PING_FRONTEND
jira review AB-1234

# you can specify GITLAB_PING_FRONTEND group this way
jira review AB-1234 frontend

# to simply fetch JIRA summary
jira summary AB-1234

There is a little dynamic contextual help on available commands and their basic syntax

$ jira
Usage:
  cache:
    jira cache <action>
    Available actions:
        clear
        size
        path
  review:
    jira review <issue key> [<ping group>]
  start:
    jira start <issue key>
  summary:
    jira summary <issue key>

23:59 $ jira summary
[Error: Issue key must be specified]
Usage
  jira summary <issue key>

How it works:

start AB-1234

1. Make a call to jira to resolve ticket summary: Awesome feature
2. Dasherize it, create a new branch and switch to it: feature/AB-1234-Awesome-feature

review AB-1234

1. Make a call to jira to resolve ticket summary: Awesome feature
2. Get origin url from GIT and extract project namespace group/project
3. Search GITLAB for project ID by namespace
4. Take your token and submit merge request feature/AB-1234-Awesome-feature --> develop
5. Ping default user group (put GITLAB_PING_DEFAULT to merge request description). To ping GITLAB_PING_FRONTEND group, use review AB-1234 frontend
