Jirafy Sync

Sync Jira tickets and version based on a given changelog (ideally generated by Jirafy Changelog)

What does Jirafy Sync do?

This action requires a changelog as input. If the changelog has references to Jira tickets, it will parse the changelog for Jira projects and tickets. For each project, the latest repository release will be the Jira project version created. Each Jira ticket's fixVersions property will be updated to the corresponding Jira version created.

Inputs

Jira credentials are required in order for Jirafy Sync to authenticate to the Jira rest api on your behalf.

• jiraUsername
  • Username of a jira user (preferably one designated for automation tasks)
• jiraToken
  • Corresponding token of the jira user
• jiraHost
  • Jira organization host name (i.e jirafy-sync.atlassian.net)
• changelog
  • A generated changelog
    • TIP: Use Jirafy Changelog
• jiraVersion
  • Github release version # (i.e v2.1.0)
    • TIP: Use the Jirafy Changelog output: ${{ steps.changelog.outputs.changelog }}

Recommended github workflow

• Jirafy Sync works best if Jirafy Changelog github action generates the changelog. The changelog can be generated given there is already at least one github release in your repository.

• Next you'll need to generate a release. I recommend using actions/create-release@latest.

• Finally you'll want to sync the github release with a jira version using Jirafy Sync action. The ${{ github.ref_name }} value is the tag that triggers the recommended workflow and should set as the input of jiraVersion property. The action will create the corresponding Jira project versions that don't already exist, as well as update the fix version of each ticket that was found in the given changelog.
