Hygieia collector for collecting Features from Jira

Build Status Quality Gate Status Total alerts Language grade: Java Maven Central License Gitter Chat

Configure the JIRA Collector to display and monitor information (related to features/issues) on the Hygieia Dashboard, from JIRA issue boards. This collector retrieves feature content data from the source system APIs and places it in MongoDB for later retrieval and use by the DevOps Dashboard.

Hygieia uses Spring Boot to package the collector as an executable JAR file with dependencies.

Setup Instructions

To configure the Jira Collector, execute the following steps:

  • Step 1 - Artifact Preparation:

    Please review the two options in Step 1 to find the best fit for you.

    Option 1 - Download the artifact:

    You can download the SNAPSHOTs from the SNAPSHOT directory here or from the maven central repository here.

    Option 2 - Build locally:

    To configure the Jira Collector, git clone the jira collector repo. Then, execute the following steps:

    To package the jira collector source code into an executable JAR file, run the maven build from the \hygieia-feature-jira-collector directory of your source code installation:

    mvn install

    The output file [collector name].jar is generated in the hygieia-feature-jira-collector\target folder.

    Once you have chosen an option in Step 1, please proceed:

  • Step 2: Set Parameters in the Application Properties File

    Set the configurable parameters in the application.properties file to connect to the Dashboard MongoDB database instance, including properties required by the Sonar Collector. To configure the parameters, refer to the application properties section.

    For more information about the server configuration, see the Spring Boot documentation.

  • Step 3: Deploy the Executable File

    To run the [collector name].jar file, change directory to 'hygieia-feature-jira-collector\target' and then execute the following command from the command prompt:

    java -jar [collector name].jar --spring.config.name=feature --spring.config.location=[path to application.properties file]

# In Jira, general IssueType IDs are associated to various 'issue'
# attributes. However, there is one attribute which this collector's
# queries rely on that change between different instantiations of Jira.
# Please provide a string name reference to your instance's IssueType for
# the lowest level of Issues (for example, 'user story') specific to your Jira
# instance.  Note:  You can retrieve your instance's IssueType Name
# listings via the following URI:  https://[your-jira-domain-name]/rest/api/2/issuetype/
# Multiple comma-separated values can be specified.
#############################################################################
feature.jiraIssueTypeNames=Story

#############################################################################
# In Jira, your instance will have its own custom field created for 'sprint' or 'timebox' details,
# which includes a list of information.  This field allows you to specify that data field for your
# instance of Jira. Note: You can retrieve your instance's sprint data field name
# via the following URI, and look for a package name com.atlassian.greenhopper.service.sprint.Sprint;
# your custom field name describes the values in this field:
# https://[your-jira-domain-name]/rest/api/2/issue/[some-issue-name]
#############################################################################
feature.jiraSprintDataFieldName=customfield_10000

#############################################################################
# In Jira, your instance will have its own custom field created for 'super story' or 'epic' back-end ID,
# which includes a list of information.  This field allows you to specify that data field for your instance
# of Jira.  Note:  You can retrieve your instance's epic ID field name via the following URI where your
# queried user story issue has a super issue (for example, epic) tied to it; your custom field name describes the
# epic value you expect to see, and is the only field that does this for a given issue:
# https://[your-jira-domain-name]/rest/api/2/issue/[some-issue-name]
#############################################################################
feature.jiraEpicIdFieldName=customfield_10002

#############################################################################
# In Jira, your instance will have its own custom field created for 'story points'
# This field allows you to specify that data field for your instance
# of Jira.  Note:  You can retrieve your instance's storypoints ID field name via the following URI where your
# queried user story issue has story points set on it; your custom field name describes the
# story points value you expect to see:

Troubleshooting

The JIRA collector log does not pull data in for XXXX

Verify the JIRA collector configuration for the custom fields is setup correctly. Hit the rest API outlined in the sample application properties above to see what data is being pulled in. A healthy log will look something like this:

2016-09-01 07:27:00,006 INFO c.c.d.collector.CollectorTask - Running Collector: Jira
2016-09-01 07:27:00,010 INFO c.c.d.collector.CollectorTask - -----------------------------------
2016-09-01 07:27:00,011 INFO c.c.d.collector.CollectorTask - https://my.jira.com/
2016-09-01 07:27:00,011 INFO c.c.d.collector.CollectorTask - -----------------------------------
2016-09-01 07:27:02,571 INFO c.c.d.collector.CollectorTask - Team Data 15 2s
2016-09-01 07:27:03,050 INFO c.c.d.collector.CollectorTask - Project Data 15 1s
2016-09-01 07:27:03,752 INFO c.c.d.collector.CollectorTask - Story Data 36 1s
2016-09-01 07:27:03,752 INFO c.c.d.collector.CollectorTask - Finished 4s

My JIRA widget dropdown does not show any teams.

  • Verify your API container is configured to hit the correct database.
  • Connect to the Mongo database using a tool such as RoboMongo and check that the 'feature' or 'team' collection (table) has data.
  • Check the JIRA URL to see if you are getting any team data in response. Example JIRA URL: https://your-jira-base-url/rest/agile/1.0/board?startAt=0.
  • When you run your JIRA collector, check if there are any exceptions in the log.
  • Before running the JIRA collector, refer to the Sample Application Properties file for a listing of the jira collector properties. If your JIRA instance uses Boards as Teams (instead of the Teams plugin), then set feature.jiraBoardAsTeam property to true.

My JIRA widget shows all 0's for estimates

Verify your JIRA collector configuration. Verify that the JIRA collector is pulling in data by observing the logs. Connect to the mongo database using a tool such as RoboMongo and check that the 'feature' collection has data. Check that features associated to an active sprint have the sEstimate (sEstimateTime for hours) field populated.

My JIRA widget only shows Kanban sprints

To show scrum sprints, there must exist stories with sprints attached to them that are active and have a recent start date. You can verify that this information is being pulled by either hitting the rest API or checking the mongo database in the feature collection.

ERROR c.c.d.client.DefaultJiraClient - No result was available from JIRA unexpectedly - defaulting to blank response. The reason for this fault is the following:RestClientException{statusCode=Optional.of(403), errorCollections=[]}

This may happen if you have had too many failed login attempts and a CAPTCHA guard has been triggered. Try logging in to JIRA with a browser successfully to remove the CAPTCHA guard. Verify that the JIRA credentials are correct.

My issue is not listed or has not been resolved

Search active and closed issues on GitHub for 'jira'. Chances are your configuration is wrong and someone else has struggled through fixing it in another issue. Please refrain from commenting on closed issues. Github link: https://github.com/capitalone/Hygieia/issues?q=jira

In the JIRA widget, the data for features in Done and WIP status exceeds the actual number in the project (where Sprint Type is ‘Kanban’).

For a Kanban board, the API pulls all the issues that match the following criteria:

  • The feature does not have a sprint set
  • The feature has a sprint set without an end date
  • The feature has a sprint set with end date >= EOT (9999-12-31T59:59:59.999999)

Run collector with Docker

You can install Hygieia by using a docker image from docker hub. This section gives detailed instructions on how to download and run with Docker.

  • Step 1: Download

    Navigate to the docker hub location of your collector here and download the latest image (most recent version is preferred). Tags can also be used, if needed.

  • Step 2: Run with Docker

    Docker run -e SKIP_PROPERTIES_BUILDER=true -v properties_location:/hygieia/config image_name

    • -e SKIP_PROPERTIES_BUILDER=true
      indicates whether you want to supply a properties file for the java application. If false/omitted, the script will build a properties file with default values
    • -v properties_location:/hygieia/config
      if you want to use your own properties file that located outside of docker container, supply the path here.
      • Example: -v /Home/User/Document/application.properties:/hygieia/config
