Install

lazy.nvim

{
  "letieu/jira.nvim",
  opts = {
    -- Your setup options...
    jira = {
      limit = 200,                                -- Global limit of tasks per view (default: 200)
    },
  },
}

Authentication

The plugin uses a command-based authentication system. Run the following command to log in:

:Jira auth login

You will be prompted for:

1. Jira Base URL: (e.g., https://your-domain.atlassian.net)
2. Auth Type: basic (default) or pat
3. Email: (Required for basic)
4. API Token / PAT: Your Jira API token or Personal Access Token

Credentials are securely stored in your Neovim data directory (:Jira auth info to see the exact path).

Other auth commands:

• :Jira auth info: Show current authentication status and file location.
• :Jira auth logout: Remove stored credentials.

Configuration

require('jira').setup({
  -- Jira settings
  jira = {
    api_version = "3",                          -- API version: "2" or "3" (default: "3")
    limit = 200,                                -- Global limit of tasks per view (default: 200)
  },

  active_sprint_query = "project = '%s' AND sprint in openSprints() ORDER BY Rank ASC",

  -- Saved JQL queries for the JQL tab
  -- Use %s as a placeholder for the project key
  queries = {
    ["Next sprint"] = "project = '%s' AND sprint in futureSprints() ORDER BY Rank ASC",
    ["Backlog"] = "project = '%s' AND (issuetype IN standardIssueTypes() OR issuetype = Sub-task) AND (sprint IS EMPTY OR sprint NOT IN openSprints()) AND statusCategory != Done ORDER BY Rank ASC",
    ["My Tasks"] = "assignee = currentUser() AND statusCategory != Done ORDER BY updated DESC",
  },

  -- Project-specific overrides
  -- Still think about this config, maybe not good enough
  projects = {
    ["DEV"] = {
      story_point_field = "customfield_10035",      -- Custom field ID for story points
      custom_fields = { -- Custom field to display in markdown view
        { key = "customfield_10016", label = "Acceptance Criteria" }
      },
    }
  }
})
