= jirarest2

* https://github.com/cybit/jirarest2#readme

== DESCRIPTION:

jirarest2 is yet another implementation of the JIRA(tm) REST-API[https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/JIRA+Remote+API+Reference] .  This one for Ruby1.9.1

It is intended to be called within the shell to create and verify JIRA(tm) issues fast without a browser. There was no particular need for perfomance at the time of writing.

This implementation is still a for cry from others like http://rubygems.org/gems/jira-ruby which requires oauth authentication. 

There are scripts to create new issues with watchers and link those to existing issues and to manipulate watchers on existing issues.

 *Use it at your own risk. Most of the API features are not implemented.*

 *Ruby1.9.1 is needed. Ruby1.8 doesn't work!*

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

   * Still in the alpha stages. The classes are still pretty volatile.
   * jira_create_issue allows you to create new issues with watchers and link those to existing issues
   * jira_watcher allows you to manipulate watchers on existing issues
   * jira_comment allows you to add read and update comments. (The latter only if you know the right comment id)
   * Uses cookie_auth by default. First login will be done via basic auth though.

== SYNOPSIS:

jira_create_issue -h
jira_watcher -h
jira_comment -h

== REQUIREMENTS:

 * json
 * highline
