Bugzilla |
Typesafe access to Bugzilla's REST API.
Very early work in progress, getting info from a bug or searching bugs is the main priority right
now.
Tests
Some basic tests now exist. yarn test
will run the main tests. yarn run itest
will run some
integration tests against a real Bugzilla instance however you must have docker installed
in order to run these.
API
Creating the API instance
import BugzillaAPI from "bugzilla";
let api = new BugzillaAPI("https://bugzilla.mozilla.org", "<api key>");
await api.version();
Or for username/password authentication:
import BugzillaAPI from "bugzilla";
let api = new BugzillaAPI(
"https://bugzilla.mozilla.org",
"<username>",
"<password>",
);
await api.version();
Retrieving bugs by ID
let bugs = await api.getBugs([123456, 123457]);
Querying bugs
You can use a quicksearch
string:
let bugs = await api.quicksearch("severity:blocker,critical");
Or any advanced search which can be passed in a number of ways:
let bugs = await api.advancedSearch(
"https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?email1=dtownsend%40mozilla.com&emailassigned_to1=1&resolution=---&emailtype1=exact&list_id=15603348",
);
let bugs = await api.advancedSearch(
"email1=dtownsend%40mozilla.com&emailassigned_to1=1&resolution=---&emailtype1=exact&list_id=15603348",
);
let bugs = await api.advancedSearch({
email1: "dtownsend@mozilla.com",
emailassigned_to1: "1",
resolution: "---",
emailtype1: "exact",
});
Filtering bug fields
To reduce bandwidth or improve performance it is possible to filter the fields returned by functions
that return bugs:
let bug = await api.getBugs([123456]).include(["id", "product", "component"]);
let bug = await api.getBugs([123456]).exclude(["cc_detail"]);
Assuming you use a static array the returned types will correctly reflect to available fields.
Currently the _all
, _default
, _extra
and _custom
special field shortcuts are not currently
supported.
Custom fields are not currently returned.
let comment = await api.getComment(123456);
Return value is Comment object.
let comments = await api.getBugComments(123456);
Return value is array of Comment objects.
let comment = await api.createComment(
123456,
"This is new comment on bug #123456",
{ is_private: false },
);
Returned value is ID of the newly-created comment.
Creating bugs
let bug = await api.createBug({
product: "TestProduct",
component: "TestComponent",
version: "unspecified",
summary: "'This is a test bug - please disregard",
alias: "SomeAlias",
op_sys: "All",
priority: "P1",
rep_platform: "All",
});
Returned value is ID of the newly-created bug.
Updating bugs
Example of adding email address on cc list of bug #123456:
let response = await api.updateBug(123456, {
id_or_alias: 123456,
cc: { add: "my@email.io" },
});
Returned value is same as described in Bugzilla docs.
Retrieving attachments by ID
let attachment = await api.getAttachment(123456);
Return value is Attachment object.
Retrieving all attachments of bug
let attachments = await api.getBugAttachments(123456);
Return value is array of Attachment objects.
Creating attachments
let attachment = await api.createAttachment(123456, {
ids: [123456, 123457],
data: Buffer.from('Attachment content'),
file_name: "Attachment name",
summary: "Attachment summary",
content_type: "text/plain",
is_private?: false,
});
Returned value is an array of IDs of the newly-created attachments.
Updating attachments
Example of changing content type of attachment #123456:
let response = await api.updateAttachment(123456, {
attachment_id: 123456,
content_type: "text/plain",
});
Returned value is same as described in Bugzilla docs.
