jira_scripts

A collection of small shell scripts to download, start and stop Jira Server instances. Supports Jira Software, Jira Core and Jira Service Desk.

Note: Use them for development purposes only.

Install

First, clone the repo and create a local config file in your user folder:

$ git clone [email protected]:seeebiii/jira_scripts.git
$ cd jira_scripts
$ mv .jira_scripts.cfg ~/.jira_scripts.cfg

Make sure to adjust the JIRA_DOWNLOAD_PATH in the ~/.jira_scripts.cfg file before continuing. Then, make the different commands available to your preferred terminal.

zsh

In my setup, I'm using zsh, a symlink to this repository and aliases to the scripts but there are other ways.

$ ln -s ~/_scripts/jira ./jira_scripts/scripts
$ cat alias.txt >> ~/.zshrc

Examples

Download Jira Software 8.8.0 and start it as a foreground process:

$ downloadJira 8.8.0
$ startJira 8.8.0

Simply stop it by using CTRL+C.

List all locally available Jira installations:

$ lsJira

Remove a Jira version that has been downloaded before:

$ removeJira 8.8.0

Usage

Download Jira

Downloads Jira to the download path configured in ~/.jira_scripts.cfg.

$ downloadJira <jiraVersion> [jiraType]
  • jiraVersion: the Jira version, e.g. 8.8.0
  • jiraType: the type of Jira, i.e. software, core or servicedesk. Default: software

Start Jira

Starts a Jira installation if it has been downloaded before. It automatically starts Jira using a debug port and creates a home folder within the Jira installation folder.

$ startJira <jiraVersion> [debugPort] [jvmMemory] [jiraType]
  • jiraVersion: the Jira version, e.g. 8.8.0
  • debugPort: the debug port you'd like to use, e.g. 5005 (default). The default debug port can be configured in ~/.jira_scripts.cfg
  • jvmMemory: the JVM memory to be used in MB, e.g. 2048 (default). The default JVM memory can be configured in ~/.jira_scripts.cfg
  • jiraType: the type of Jira, i.e. software, core or servicedesk. Default: software

List Jira Installations

Lists all available Jira installations that have been downloaded into the target Jira folder.

$ listJira

Remove Jira

Removes a single Jira installation from the target Jira folder.

$ removeJira <jiraVersion> [jiraType]
  • jiraVersion: the Jira version, e.g. 8.8.0
  • jiraType: the type of Jira, i.e. software, core or servicedesk. Default: software

Clean Jira

Cleans the home folder of a given Jira installation.

$ cleanJira <jiraVersion> [jiraType]
  • jiraVersion: the Jira version, e.g. 8.8.0
  • jiraType: the type of Jira, i.e. software, core or servicedesk. Default: software

Stop Jira

Stops a running Jira. Only useful if you're running the scripts as a background process.

$ stopJira <jiraVersion> [jiraType]
  • jiraVersion: the Jira version, e.g. 8.8.0
  • jiraType: the type of Jira, i.e. software, core or servicedesk. Default: software

Pro Tip

If you're a plugin/add-on/app developer for Jira, then I can recommend using the QuickReload (QR) plugin from Atlassian. It's watching the target folder of your plugin repository for new .jar or .obr files and automatically installs them to Jira. You can download it from Atlassian's Maven repository: https://packages.atlassian.com/content/repositories/atlassian-public/com/atlassian/labs/plugins/quickreload/
