go-jira-migrate

A golang tool to migrate Jira issues from one server to another.

How it works

For each issue in Jira.csv:

1. Connect to Jira source server and get all details of issue.
2. Use Google Translate API to translate the Summary and Description from pt-br to en.
3. Fix the Project Name to one predefined.
4. Fix the Assignee to one predefined.
5. Map the IssueType to the types available on Jira destination server.
6. Copy custom fields like Story Points.
7. Copy Labels field.
8. Add a label with the Key of source issue. This helps you to find a problem using the source key.
9. Add a label with the name of Components of source issue. As the target server has other components, we added them as labels to preserve the information.
10. Create a new issue on Jira destination server.

Setup

Generate a list of issues using a Jira SQL query like:

project = MSS AND Sprint in futureSprints() ORDER BY Key ASC

Export the issues to a csv file as Jira.csv.

Create two Jira configuration files as bellow:

secrets_src.json

{
	"JiraUrl": "https://your_src_jira_domain.atlassian.net",
	"JiraUserName":"[email protected]",
	"JiraUserToken":"dlfhsaldflsdafg9245"
}

secrets_dst.json

{
	"JiraUrl": "https://your_dst_jira_domain.atlassian.net",
	"JiraUserName":"[email protected]",
	"JiraUserToken":"779776869796gjvui6giu6n"
}

Notes:

• For atlassian.net cloud create a token and use it on JiraUserToken.
• For on premisse use your password on JiraUserToken.

Check and modify the function createFromIssue() on migrate.go to apply issue transformations as need.

Tip: you can get the complete issue structure of your server just by downloading the json from an Issue.Self URL and using vscode to format it

install

go get github.com/bregydoc/gtranslate
go mod init test
go mod tidy

run

go run migrate.go
