Today we published a bugfix release for the smartics JIRA Maven Plugin in version 0.2.1.
The smartics JIRA Maven Plugin supports updating information on a JIRA server to integrate into our Maven build process.
This plugin is one additional building block for the automation of process around the projectdoc Toolbox for Confluence. Together with the Doctype Maven Plugin and the Apptools Maven Plugin this is the third plugin to make daily tasks simple and fast to execute.
None of the plugin goals requires a POM file to be present. In case such a POM file or the Maven Settings file is present, information (like the URL to the issue management system or the credentials for the JIRA server) will used.
Currently the following use cases are supported:
- Adding new versions from the commandline
- Adding issues that depend in a root issue from the commandline (such as there is a new feature in the Doctypes MP and we need to add issues in the Doctype Add-ons)
