Bitbucket

You can import tasks from your Bitbucket instance using the bitbucket service name.

Example Service

Here’s an example of a Bitbucket target:

[my_issue_tracker]
service = bitbucket
bitbucket.username = ralphbean
bitbucket.login = ralphbean
bitbucket.password = mypassword

The above example is the minimum required to import issues from Bitbucket. You can also feel free to use any of the configuration options described in Common Service Configuration Options.

Note that both bitbucket.username and bitbucket.login are required and can be set to different values. bitbucket.login is used to specify what account bugwarrior should use to login to bitbucket. bitbucket.username indicates which repositories should be scraped. For instance, I always have bitbucket.login set to ralphbean (my account). But I have some targets with bitbucket.username pointed at organizations or other users to watch issues there.

As an alternative to password authentication, there is OAuth. To get a key and secret, go to the “OAuth” section of your profile settings and click “Add consumer”. Set the “Callback URL” to https://localhost/ and set the appropriate permissions. Then assign your consumer’s credentials to bitbucket.key and bitbucket.secret. Note that you will have to provide a password (only) the first time you pull, so you may want to set bitbucket.password = @oracle:ask_password and run bugwarrior-pull --interactive on your next pull.

Service Features

Include and Exclude Certain Repositories

If you happen to be working with a large number of projects, you may want to pull issues from only a subset of your repositories. To do that, you can use the bitbucket.include_repos option.

For example, if you would like to only pull-in issues from your project_foo and project_fox repositories, you could add this line to your service configuration:

bitbucket.include_repos = project_foo,project_fox

Alternatively, if you have a particularly noisy repository, you can instead choose to import all issues excepting it using the bitbucket.exclude_repos configuration option.

In this example, noisy_repository is the repository you would not like issues created for:

bitbucket.exclude_repos = noisy_repository

Please note that the API returns all lowercase names regardless of the case of the repository in the web interface.

Filter Merge Requests

Although you can filter issues using Common Service Configuration Options, pull requests are not filtered by default. You can filter pull requests by adding the following configuration option:

bitbucket.filter_merge_requests = True
