PyBugz - Python Bugzilla Interface
----------------------------------
Bugzilla has a very inefficient user interface, so I've written a
command line utility to interact with it. This is mainly done to help
me with closing bugs on Gentoo Bugzilla by grabbing patches, ebuilds
and so on.

Requirements
------------
* Python 3.3 or later
Features
--------
* Searching bugzilla
* Listing details of a bug including comments and attachments
* Downloading/viewing attachments from bugzilla
* Posting bugs, comments, and making changes to an existing bug.
* Adding attachments to a bug.
Usage/Workflow
--------------
PyBugz comes with a command line interface called "bugz". It's
operation is similar in style to cvs/svn where a subcommand is
required for operation.
To explain how it works, I will use a typical workflow for Gentoo
development.
1) Searching bugzilla for bugs I can fix, I'll run the command:
---------------------------------------------------------------
$ bugz search "version bump" --assigned-to liquidx@gentoo.org
* Using https://bugs.gentoo.org/xmlrpc.cgi
* Searching for "version bump"
101968 liquidx net-im/msnlib version bump
125468 liquidx version bump for dev-libs/g-wrap-1.9.6
130608 liquidx app-dicts/stardict version bump: 2.4.7
2) Narrow down on bug #101968, I can execute:
---------------------------------------------
$ bugz get 101968
* Using https://bugs.gentoo.org/xmlrpc.cgi
* Getting bug 130608 ..
Title : app-dicts/stardict version bump: 2.4.7
Assignee : liquidx@gentoo.org
Reported : 2006-04-20 07:36 PST

[ATTACH] [87844] [stardict 2.4.7 ebuild]
[Comment #1] dushistov@----.ru : 2006-04-20 07:36 PST
...
3) Now this bug has an attachment submitted by the user, so I can
easily pull that attachment in:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
$ bugz attachment 87844
* Using https://bugs.gentoo.org/xmlrpc.cgi
* Getting attachment 87844
* Saving attachment: "stardict-2.4.7.ebuild"
4) If the ebuild is suitable, we can commit it using our normal
repoman tools, and close the bug.
---------------------------------------------------------------
$ bugz modify 130608 --fixed -c "Thanks for the ebuild. Committed to
portage"
or if we find that the bug is invalid, we can close it by using:
$ bugz modify 130608 --invalid -c "Not reproducable"
Other options
-------------
bugz has an extensive help system for commands and options.
bugz --help gives help for the global options and subcommands, and
bugz <subcommand> --help gives help for that specific subcommand.
PyBugz Configuration
--------------------
PyBugz supports a configuration system which defines defaults for
multiple Bugzilla installations and allows the system administrator and
individual users to override or add to these settings.
The supplied defaults are stored in /usr/share/pybugz.d/*.conf. The
system administrator can override or add to these defaults on a site-wide
basis by creating a directory /etc/pybugz.d and adding files with a
.conf extension to this directory. Individual users can override or add
to all of these settings by placing a file named .bugzrc in their home
directory.
For more information about this configuration system, see the
pybugz.d (5) man page.
