jira ls enhancements

[williamh]

Hello again,

I noticed that "jira ls" doesn't have options for status.

It would be very helpful if "jira ls" had options that would allow me to list statuses of issues that I either want to see or do not want to see in the output.

Is this something you would consider adding?

Thanks for your time. :-)

So you are looking for something like jira ls --status done? Or are you asking to see a Status column in the output? You can probably also implement this on your own via a custom template which you can read more about here: https://github.com/Netflix-Skunkworks/go-jira#templates

I figured out how to control the output; I am looking to query issues based on status, so a couple of options possibly:

jira ls --status 'to do' --status 'in progress ...

to list issues that have those statuses, or

jira ls --exclude-status 'to do' --exclude-status 'in progress ...

to list issues that do not have those statuses.

Fwiw, you can also modify the jql directly via the --query option. This will include status:

jira ls --query "resolution = unresolved AND project = '<project>' AND status = 'To Do'" 

This will exclude status:

jira ls --query "resolution = unresolved AND project = '<project>' AND status not in ('To Do', 'In Progress')"

I have added the --status option, for more complex cases like the AND status != "To Do" and for querying on multiple statuses, I think it is probably more appropriate to just have a stored query for this, so for more complicated stuff I am planning on adding something like #99.
