logwork v1.1.2

LogWork - A command line utility for easy jira work logging

Motivation

Sometimes it can be difficult to track time to dedicated Jira tickets when working on multiple issues, all relating to a single feature. This is where LogWork comes in handy. It lets you simply specify a number of hours to distribute and a list of tickets to distribute them on. LogWork will take care of the rest.

Installation

1. Install jira-cmd and set it up (user/password, etc). npm install -g jira-cmd
2. npm install -g logwork

How to use

Log 6 hours randomly to the three given tickets, adding comments from the given file

# Note! A ticket might get zero hours on a given day. If so, it will be ignored and not logged to jira.
$ logwork -c ./example/comments.txt 6 TICKET-A TICKET-B TICKET-C  

Dry Run Mode! Same thing as above, but just list the commands, do nothing

$ logwork -c ./example/comments.txt 6 TICKET-A TICKET-B TICKET-C

Diplay usage info

$ logwork -h 
$ logwork --help

(Optional) Including your own worklog comments

1. Create a file with comments to pick from. See example. Comments must be separated by line breaks.
2. Use the -c option and point to the file. LogWork will pick randomly form the comments and include them in the worklog.

Example

$ logwork -c ./example/comments.txt 6 TICKET-A TICKET-B TICKET-C

How it works

The supplied number of hours will be randomly distributed over the list of tickets given. For each ticket with more than zero hours to it, jira-cmd will be invoked with the worklogadd command.

# Example of the type of commands that will be created and run
$ jira worklogadd TICKET-A 2
or
$ jira worklogadd TICKET-B 1 "Refactoring and implementation"
