JIRA Gadget On Cloud

[Jeremy Banks]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a new JIRA Gadget for my Cloud JIRA instance.

I've followed the tutorial here - https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-platform/gadgets/tutorial-writing-gadgets-for-jira.  I then modified it to do what I want it to do on my local dev environment.

Now I'm trying to follow this https://developer.atlassian.com/static/connect/docs/latest/developing/cloud-installation.html to install it in to Marketplace so I can install it in to my cloud instance.

Does the gadget need to actually reside and run on an external website?  I assumed the gadget would be installed in to my instance, but the requirement for an SSL served atlassian-connect.json suggests otherwise.

Thanks

You do need to host Atlassian Connect addons yourself. However, if your plugin has no backend then you can use a service like firebase: https://www.firebase.com/

Otherwise you might want to use one of the other cloud hosting providers that best suit the requirements of your application.

In addition, I run into an issue when trying to create HelloWorld plugin according to Tutorial.

But when I run atlas-run command, I see the following error:

In my pom.xml,  there are the following properties:

<properties>
    <jira.version>7.2.0</jira.version>
    <amps.version>6.2.11</amps.version>
</properties>

 I try to install a different version of SDK, and set jira.version to different value, such as 7.6.0, 7.1.0, but this issue still exists.

So how to fix this issue?

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Thanks a lot

Firstly, thanks Jeremy and Robert.

Now, we have a requirement to develop a Gadget on JIRA Cloud,

But I am a newer to it, so  I want to conform the following:

1) install Atlassian SDK

2) develop this gadget

3) finally install it to JIRA Cloud.

[Robert Massaioli _Atlassian_]

1) install Atlassian SDK

The Atlassian Plugin SDK is only for Atlassian Server development. If you want to develop for Jira in Atlassian Cloud then you can follow the guides here: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/integrating-with-jira-cloud/

Also, the Atlassian Developer community is a great place to ask developer related questions: https://community.developer.atlassian.com/

Thanks Robert very much,

Maybe, I did not clear me yesterday.

Here, I describe our requirement: we are using JIRA Cloud for Silverpeak to manage Issues and Test Executions: https://silverpeak.atlassian.net. Now, we want to create a new gadget to calculate the quantity of Test Executions by status (pass, fail, wip, blocked and unexecuted) and show them on a Pie chart.  This gadget needs at least one parameter: ZQL Filter Query. QA Tester runs a Python script to add this gadget to JIRA Cloud dashboard.

This Tutorial lets me know how to create a gadget, so I install Atlassian Plugin SDK and take a try; However I fail to atlas-run command (please see my comments listed yesterday).

Today, I follow the guides:

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/getting-started/
https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/build-a-jira-app-using-a-framework/

and successfully create "Greating" and "Hello Word" on navigation bar on my developing JIRA Cloud instance: https://xinzhijiang.atlassian.net

 I  find the following description:
https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/extending-the-user-interface/

Dashboard items: allows apps to provide a gadget to display on Jira Cloud dashboards.

So far, I can't find any detailed guides for how to develop a gadget for JIRA Cloud instance.

Just you said, Atlassian Plugin SDK is only for Atlassian Server development, so, I get confused.

Robert, would you like to tell me where I can find the detailed guide to develop a gadget for JIRA Cloud instance.

Thanks a lot.

Please ask this question again at: https://community.developer.atlassian.com instead.

I submit a new topic:

Thank you very much.

I'm trying to create a javascript/html/css only gadget but I'm struggling to find out what an atlassian-connect.json should look like for a gadget.

Any ideas?

Actually that's probably a question in its own right, I'll start a new thread.

[Jeremy Banks]

Thanks Robert, I'll give Firebase a crack.
