JIRA issue status report app

This is a lightweight application to help me track the time I spend on JIRA tickets.

Setup

This runs as a CGI(!). To use it, create a project directory for a set of JIRA issues. Make sure that project directory is served under a DOCUMENT_ROOT for an Apache host, or some other CGI-compatible HTTP server. Then, initialize that directory as a new npm package, and install issue-report as a dependency.

For example:

mkdir my-project && cd my-project
npm init -f
npm install @klortho/issue-report
export PATH=`pwd`/node_modules/.bin:$PATH
issue-report init

This will create a new template issues.yaml file. To generate an HTML report from that, run

issue-report

To see the report through a CGI, bring up the URL corresponding to that directory in your browser.

Don't forget to put your project directory under Git:

echo 'node_modules/' > .gitignore
git init
git add .
git commit -m 'Initial commit'

To do

• Better output of durations; for example, "2w 3d 4h".
• Show the dates on the estimate columns
• Add "hours worked" column
• Render notes, status, and child-of
• Display a graph of hours worked and estimates / time.
• Aggregate data from JIRA REST API - priority, etc.
