jira-transition get issues form commit

Chris_lvrhhe

Hello

I would like to trigger a JIRA issue transition using the jira-transition:0.2.2

script:
  - pipe: atlassian/jira-transition:0.2.2
    variables:
      JIRA_BASE_URL: $JIRA_BASE_URL
      JIRA_USER_EMAIL: $JIRA_USER_EMAIL
      JIRA_API_TOKEN: $JIRA_API_TOKEN
      ISSUE: $BITBUCKET_BRANCH
      TRANSITION: "Done"

the problem lies with the parameter ISSUE. In the documentation it is stated that on can specify either: ISSUE: 'ABC-123' or use the variable $BITBUCKET_BRANCH

not sure what the $BITBUCKET_BRANCH variable does?, but it is empty when I run it.

What I would like to achieve is: ISSUE: 'ABC-123, ABC-345, ABC-567, etc'.

So that the transition is done one multiple issues based on the commit.

The API is setup and the connection with JIRA is done. So the only thing left ist to get the transition on multiple issues working.

Is there a way to get all the Issue keys of the current git hash / pipeline build that is currently running?

Kind Regards

Chris

Hi @Chris . Due to the implementation of the current version of the pipe, only one issue key will be extracted from the ISSUE string. So in your case, only the ABC-123 key would be used, all other keys would be ignored.

@Alexander Zhukov thank you for your reply.

In this case the jira-transition pipe is not the right thing for me. Not sure which use case is covered by just transitioning one issue and hard coding that issue in the bitbucket-pipelines.yml

What I have to look into now is creating a bash script that extracts all git commit messages of a certain git-hash and parses the messages for Jira-Issue-Keys. All extracted issue-keys will then execute a loop that triggers a jira transition for each issue using the JIRA API.

That custom script I need to trigger in the script section of the bitbucket-pipelines.yml.

Maybe this has been done already. Or there are scripts that do exactly this. I have not yet found the right thing online. Any pointers are appreciated.

Hello Chris,

I'm currently struggling with the same problem you had! Did you manage to solve it?

Hello Ady

No we had to go another way. But we use bitbucket to track our deployments. So we know which issue has been deployed on which environment.

So what we do is track if the issue has been deployed on the staging environment if so we set the jira status on staging. With the new Jira Automation you can automate such tasks with your own rules.

To detect if an issue has been deployed on the staging environment we use this filter

deploymentEnvironmentName ~ staging AND deploymentEnvironmentName !~ production AND status in ("Resolved") AND development[commits].all > 0

So basically we check if the issue is deployed on staging but not on production, the current status is "resolved" and the issue has commits. If all of this applies, we transition the issue using Jira Automation to "On Staging".

Hope this helps
