PHP JIRA Rest Client

Requirements

• PHP >= 5.4.9
• php JsonMapper
• phpdotenv

Installation

1. Download and Install PHP Composer.

   curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

2. Next, run the Composer command to install the latest version of php jira rest client.

   php composer.phar require lesstif/php-jira-rest-client "^1.7.0"

   or add the following to your composer.json file.

   {
       "require": {
           "lesstif/php-jira-rest-client": "^1.7.0"
       }
   }

   Note: If you are using laravel 5.0 or 5.1(this version dependent on phpdotenv 1.x), then use "1.5.*" version instead.

3. Then run Composer's install or update commands to complete installation.

   php composer.phar install

4. After installing, you need to require Composer's autoloader:

   require 'vendor/autoload.php';

Configuration

you can choose loads environment variables either 'dotenv' or 'array'.

use dotenv

copy .env.example file to .env on your project root.

JIRA_HOST="https://your-jira.host.com"
JIRA_USER="jira-username"
JIRA_PASS="jira-password"

important-note: If you are using previous versions(a prior v1.2), you should move config.jira.json to .env and will edit it.

If you are developing with laravel framework(5.x), you must append above configuration to your application .env file.

use array

create Service class with ArrayConfiguration parameter.

use JiraRestApi\Configuration\ArrayConfiguration;
use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;

$iss = new IssueService(new ArrayConfiguration(
          array(
               'jiraHost' => 'https://your-jira.host.com',
               'jiraUser' => 'jira-username',
               'jiraPassword' => 'jira-password',
          )
   ));

    // get all project type
	$prjtyps = $proj->getProjectTypes();

	foreach ($prjtyps as $pt) {
	    var_dump($pt);
	}

	// get specific project type.
	$pt = $proj->getProjectType('software');
	var_dump($pt);

} catch (JiraException $e) {
	print("Error Occured! " . $e->getMessage());
}

Get All Field List

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Field\Field;
use JiraRestApi\Field\FieldService;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

try {
    $fieldService = new FieldService();

	 // return custom field only. 
    $ret = $fieldService->getAllFields(Field::CUSTOM); 
    	
    var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
    $this->assertTrue(false, 'testSearch Failed : '.$e->getMessage());
}

Create Custom Field

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Field\Field;
use JiraRestApi\Field\FieldService;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

try {
    $field = new Field();
    
    $field->setName("New custom field")
            ->setDescription("Custom field for picking groups")
            ->setType("com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.customfieldtypes:grouppicker")
            ->setSearcherKey("com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.customfieldtypes:grouppickersearcher");

    $fieldService = new FieldService();

    $ret = $fieldService->create($field);
    
    var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
    $this->assertTrue(false, 'Field Create Failed : '.$e->getMessage());
}

Get Issue Info

Returns a full representation of the issue for the given issue key.

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

try {
	$issueService = new IssueService();
	
   $queryParam = [
            'fields' => [  // default: '*all'
                'summary',
                'comment',
            ],
            'expand' => [
                'renderedFields',
                'names',
                'schema',
                'transitions',
                'operations',
                'editmeta',
                'changelog',
            ]
        ];
            
	$issue = $issueService->get('TEST-867', $queryParam);
	
	var_dump($issue->fields);	
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	print("Error Occured! " . $e->getMessage());
}

You can access the custom field associated with issue through $issue->fields->customFields array or through direct custom field id variables(Ex: $issue->fields->customfield_10300).

Create Issue

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueField;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

try {
	$issueField = new IssueField();

	$issueField->setProjectKey("TEST")
				->setSummary("something's wrong")
				->setAssigneeName("lesstif")
				->setPriorityName("Critical")
				->setIssueType("Bug")
				->setDescription("Full description for issue")
				->addVersion(["1.0.1", "1.0.3"])
				->addComponents(['Component-1', 'Component-2']);
	
	$issueService = new IssueService();

	$ret = $issueService->create($issueField);
	
	//If success, Returns a link to the created issue.
	var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	print("Error Occured! " . $e->getMessage());
}

If you want to set custom field, you can call the addCustomField function with custom field id and value as parameters.

try {
	$issueField = new IssueField();

	$issueField->setProjectKey("TEST")
				->setSummary("something's wrong")
				->setAssigneeName("lesstif")
				->setPriorityName("Critical")
				->setIssueType("Bug")
				->setDescription("Full description for issue")
				->addVersion("1.0.1")
				->addVersion("1.0.3")
      			->addCustomField('customfield_10200', ['value' => 'Linux']) // Select List (single choice)
      			->addCustomField('customfield_10408', [
                		['value' => 'opt2'], ['value' => 'opt4']
           		 ]) // Select List (multiple choice)
      
      ;
	
	$issueService = new IssueService();

	$ret = $issueService->create($issueField);
	
	//If success, Returns a link to the created issue.
	var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	print("Error Occured! " . $e->getMessage());
}

Currently, not tested for all custom field types.

Create Multiple Issue

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueField;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

try {
    $issueFieldOne = new IssueField();

    $issueFieldOne->setProjectKey("TEST")
                ->setSummary("something's wrong")
                ->setPriorityName("Critical")
                ->setIssueType("Bug")
                ->setDescription("Full description for issue");

    $issueFieldTwo = new IssueField();

    $issueFieldTwo->setProjectKey("TEST")
                ->setSummary("something else is wrong")
                ->setPriorityName("Critical")
                ->setIssueType("Bug")
                ->setDescription("Full description for second issue");
    
    $issueService = new IssueService();

    $ret = $issueService->createMultiple([$issueFieldOne, $issueFieldTwo]);
    
    //If success, returns an array of the created issues
    var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
    print("Error Occured! " . $e->getMessage());
}

Create Sub Task

Creating a sub-task is similar to creating a regular issue, with two important method calls:

->setIssueType('Sub-task')
->setParentKeyOrId($issueKeyOrId)

for example ​

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueField;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

try {
	$issueField = new IssueField();

	$issueField->setProjectKey("TEST")
				->setSummary("something's wrong")
				->setAssigneeName("lesstif")
				->setPriorityName("Critical")
				->setDescription("Full description for issue")
				->addVersion("1.0.1")
				->addVersion("1.0.3")
				->setIssueType("Sub-task")  //issue type must be Sub-task
				->setParentKeyOrId('TEST-143')  //Issue Key
				;

	$issueService = new IssueService();

	$ret = $issueService->create($issueField);

	//If success, Returns a link to the created sub task.
	var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	print("Error Occured! " . $e->getMessage());
}

Add Attachment

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueField;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

$issueKey = "TEST-879";

try {
    $issueService = new IssueService();

    // multiple file upload support.
    $ret = $issueService->addAttachments($issueKey, 
    	array('screen_capture.png', 'bug-description.pdf', 'README.md'));

    print_r($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
    $this->assertTrue(FALSE, "Attach Failed : " . $e->getMessage());
}

Update issue

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueField;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

$issueKey = "TEST-879";

try {			
	$issueField = new IssueField(true);

	$issueField->setAssigneeName("admin")
				->setPriorityName("Blocker")
				->setIssueType("Task")
				->addLabel("test-label-first")
				->addLabel("test-label-second")
				->addVersion("1.0.1")
				->addVersion("1.0.2")
				->setDescription("This is a shorthand for a set operation on the summary field")
				;

	// optionally set some query params
	$editParams = array(
		'notifyUsers' => false
	);
	
	$issueService = new IssueService();

	// You can set the $paramArray param to disable notifications in example
	$ret = $issueService->update($issueKey, $issueField, $editParams);

    var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	$this->assertTrue(FALSE, "update Failed : " . $e->getMessage());
}

If you want to change the custom field type when updating an issue, you can call the addCustomField function just as you did for creating issue.

Change Assignee

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

$issueKey = "TEST-879";

try {
	$issueService = new IssueService();

    // if assignee is -1, automatic assignee used.
    // A null assignee will remove the assignee.
    $assignee = 'newAssigneeName';

    $ret = $issueService->changeAssignee($issueKey, $assignee);

    var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	$this->assertTrue(FALSE, "Change Assignee Failed : " . $e->getMessage());
}

Remove Issue

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

$issueKey = "TEST-879";

try {
	$issueService = new IssueService();

    $ret = $issueService->deleteIssue($issueKey);
    // if you want to delete issues with sub-tasks
    //$ret = $issueService->deleteIssue($issueKey, array('deleteSubtasks' => 'true'));

    var_dump($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	$this->assertTrue(FALSE, "Change Assignee Failed : " . $e->getMessage());
}

Add comment

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\Issue\Comment;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

$issueKey = "TEST-879";

try {			
	$comment = new Comment();

	$body = <<<COMMENT
Adds a new comment to an issue.
* Bullet 1
* Bullet 2
** sub Bullet 1
** sub Bullet 2
* Bullet 3
COMMENT;

	$comment->setBody($body)
		->setVisibility('role', 'Users');
	;

	$issueService = new IssueService();
	$ret = $issueService->addComment($issueKey, $comment);
	print_r($ret);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	$this->assertTrue(FALSE, "add Comment Failed : " . $e->getMessage());
}

Perform a transition on an issue

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\Issue\Transition;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

$issueKey = "TEST-879";

try {			
	$transition = new Transition();
	$transition->setTransitionName('Resolved');
	$transition->setCommentBody('performing the transition via REST API.');

	$issueService = new IssueService();

	$issueService->transition($issueKey, $transition);
} catch (JiraException $e) {
	$this->assertTrue(FALSE, "add Comment Failed : " . $e->getMessage());
}

Perform an advanced search

try {
    $issueService = new IssueService();

    $ret = $issueService->search($jql);
    var_dump($ret);

    $this->assertTrue(false, 'testSearch Failed : '.$e->getMessage());
}

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use JiraRestApi\Issue\IssueService;
use JiraRestApi\JiraException;

$jql = 'project not in (TEST)  and assignee = currentUser() and status in (Resolved, closed)';

try {
    $issueService = new IssueService();

  	$pagination = -1;
  
    $startAt = 0;	//the index of the first issue to return (0-based)    
    $maxResult = 3;	// the maximum number of issues to return (defaults to 50). 
    $totalCount = -1;	// the number of issues to return
  
    // first fetch
    $ret = $issueService->search($jql, $startAt, $maxResult);
  	$totalCount = $ret->total;
  	
  	// do something with fetched data
    foreach ($ret->issues as $issue) {
        print (sprintf("%s %s \n", $issue->key, $issue->fields->summary));
    }
  	
  	// fetch remained data
    $page = $totalCount / $maxResult;

    for ($startAt = 1; $startAt < $page; $startAt++)
    {
         $ret = $issueService->search($jql, $startAt, $maxResult);

         print ("\nPaging $startAt\n");
         print ("-------------------\n");
         foreach ($ret->issues as $issue) {
             print (sprintf("%s %s \n", $issue->key, $issue->fields->summary));
         }
    }
