Jira Parser

This is something I'm writing for work to parse the jira burndown html.

Requires python3 and BeautifulSoup which can be installed using pip install beautifulsoup4.

How to use

Inspect the page and take the body of the HTML using the inspector. Save it to burndown.html.

Example of what to copy:

(I wasn't able to find anything useful via the network tab). Perhaps the JIRA api has something better, but I don't have access to that at work.

Run python main.py or python3 main.py depending on your alias for python3.

Stuff I'll do one day

• CSV output? Would anyone even find that useful?
• Generate reports based on date?
• Individual reports. Is this even possible?
• Better exception handling
