So despite being in charge and ultimately the guy who decided to get my entire company using JIRA I must admit… I hate it… As with many GUIs just way too much clicking and waiting and im too impatient.
Anyway, so I decided to install jira-cli ( https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli ) and I cant tell you how much nicer this is, certainly improves my stress levels…
If anyone is curious this is what a full workflow from ticket creation to completion looks like for me. Keep in mind if you are on a JIRA instance that isnt customized you can probably get by with fewer steps.
myjira issue create -pSYS -tTask -s”Configure jira cli w/ aliases” -b”Add to nixos config and create some helper scripts for commands” -yHigh
myjira issue move SYS-125 Accept
myjira sprint list -pSYS
myjira sprint add 65 SYS-125 -pSYS
myjira issue edit SYS-125 –custom story-points=2 –no-input
myjira issue assign SYS-125 “jeff@scentech-medical.com”
myjira issue move SYS-125 “Start Work”myjira issue worklog add SYS-125 2h –comment “Started reading up on the subject” –no-input
myjira issue move SYS-125 “Ready for Review” –comment “Successfully printed from lab office’s printer using shmuels computer”
myjira issue move SYS-125 “Accepted” –comment “Shmuel confirmed it is working for him now”

@freemo There’s the learning curve with cli, but AFTER I learn it I DO prefer it. I do have satisfaction with going CLI on my headless server. :)
@Romaq yea though i find since cheatsheets are just text you copy and paste that learning curve is easily managed
@Pat Interesting idea, but I disagree… cli works well for people who bother to spend even 2 seconds reading instructions… GUI is for people who are intellectually lazy :)
Here’s a video compilation of Apple ads from 1981->
The ads I’m talking about begin at about 11:00,
In particular, here’s an ad that “proves” GUI is better than CLI for average workers. (joke)
