Getting started with Python app addon.

Question

Hello Everyone,

I am new to several of the technologies used in the Atlassian world (REST, webservers, web development etc). However I am fairly conversant with Python.

I have already setup Atlassian connect and successfully went through the "Getting Started" example. In the project folder that gets created as a result of "npm new", I see css and js under "public" but I don't see a folder for python. If I have to use python to write an addon where do I write the source code?

Also can you please point me to some full source examples and steps of writing python code that can use the Atlassian connect framework to query JIRA issues?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

I have reviewed this module. This helps in the development but doesn't tell me how to use Atlassian connect express (ACE) to talk to my Jira cloud instance.

Hello,

If you want to write your own addon for Jira you need to do it with Java.

If you want to use python instead of the UI you can with this module.
