[!NOTE]
This repository is a Proof of Concept.


[!WARNING]
Since this tool executes commands locally, we should avoid trusting public comments as much as possible.
It will default to scanning only private comments (regardless of the visibility group). It is possible to read from public comments if you understand the potential risk, this might cause to your systems.
The output of verification steps is also not uploaded as attachments by default because it is impossible to limit attachments' visibility, refer to JRASERVER-3893. It is possible to attach the output if you understand the potential risk, this might expose sensitive information.

Jira Issues Auto Verification.
jiav is a Python based auto verification
tool for Jira.
The primary goal is to provide a robust auto-verification
workflow while focusing on ease of use and simplicity.
Users provide a YAML-formatted comment in Jira issues, and the tool will execute it.
On successful execution, the issue will move to the desired status.
Both self-hosted and cloud Jira instances are supported.
Backends
jiav allows developers to build custom backends; refer to the development guide.
Built-in backends:

lineinfile - looks for a line in file.
regexinfile - looks for a regex in file.
jira_issue - queries a Jira issue's status.

An example of a backends shipped externally:

ansible - runs Ansible playbooks.
This is a risky backend since it allows users to run arbitrary code. Be cautious when enabling it!
command - runs shell commands.
This is a risky backend since it allows users to run arbitrary code. Be cautious when enabling it!

Self-hosted Jira instances require "Personal Access Tokens" (PAT) which are available starting from
