Hi @iksi4prs, thank you for working on this. Would you be able to fix/update the tests? Thanks |
|
@ankitpokhrel , will do my best. There are few old opened PRs (from other people), hence I thought this project is not active anymore. |
|
Is this still active? I'd really like to have the delimiter option to do some analysis on the issue list. |
|
@jcutrell I will do my best to fix the tests asap, so pr can be merged. |
|
@ankitpokhrel , I've fixed the unit tests and added new one for this feature. please check when u have time. 10x. |
|
This is much needed feature. |

This MR contains the following updates: | Package | Update | Change | |---|---|---| | [ankitpokhrel/jira-cli](https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli) | minor | `v1.6.0` -> `v1.7.0` | MR created with the help of [el-capitano/tools/renovate-bot](https://gitlab.com/el-capitano/tools/renovate-bot). **Proposed changes to behavior should be submitted there as MRs.** --- ### Release Notes <details> <summary>ankitpokhrel/jira-cli (ankitpokhrel/jira-cli)</summary> ### [`v1.7.0`](https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli/releases/tag/v1.7.0) [Compare Source](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli@v1.6.0...v1.7.0) This release adds CSV and JSON output support for issue listings and upgrades deprecated endpoints to ensure compatibility with the latest Jira APIs. > \[!IMPORTANT] > > - The [new API](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-search/#api-rest-api-3-search-jql-get) does not return the total number of entries anymore, so the total issue count is no longer displayed in the search results. > - Consequently, the `startAt` parameter in the new API is unsupported. Therefore, the `from` part of the `--paginate=<from>:<limit>` flag is effectively ignored. Users can still paginate using the maxResults parameter (e.g., --paginate=10). #### 🥷 What's added? - feat: Add option to list issues in raw JSON by [@​evg656e](https://github.com/evg656e) in [#​840](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#840) - feat: Add releases Subcommand by [@​vkhitrin](https://github.com/vkhitrin) in [#​851](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#851) - feat: Support num comments in issue list cmd by [@​ankitpokhrel](https://github.com/ankitpokhrel) in [#​853](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#853) - feat: Support CSV when listing issues by [@​ankitpokhrel](https://github.com/ankitpokhrel) in [#​854](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#854) - feat: Allow skipping notification on edit by [@​ankitpokhrel](https://github.com/ankitpokhrel) in [#​855](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#855) - feat: Add command line arg delimiter for custom delimiter instead of tab. by [@​iksi4prs](https://github.com/iksi4prs) in [#​662](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#662) - feat: Add support for environment variable to specify config file path by [@​aazon](https://github.com/aazon) in [#​858](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#858) #### 🐞 What's fixed? - fix: usernames can be 2 chars by [@​jontyq](https://github.com/jontyq) in [#​890](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#890) - fix: Update deprecated endpoint by [@​ankitpokhrel](https://github.com/ankitpokhrel) in [#​892](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#892) - fix: csv format priority by [@​ciricc](https://github.com/ciricc) in [#​882](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#882) #### ☕️ Other changes - chore(docs): Add packaging stats to Installation section in README.md by [@​kskarthik](https://github.com/kskarthik) in [#​857](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#857) #### New Contributors - [@​evg656e](https://github.com/evg656e) made their first contribution in [#​840](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#840) - [@​vkhitrin](https://github.com/vkhitrin) made their first contribution in [#​851](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#851) - [@​iksi4prs](https://github.com/iksi4prs) made their first contribution in [#​662](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#662) - [@​aazon](https://github.com/aazon) made their first contribution in [#​858](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#858) - [@​jontyq](https://github.com/jontyq) made their first contribution in [#​890](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#890) - [@​ciricc](https://github.com/ciricc) made their first contribution in [#​882](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#882) - [@​kskarthik](https://github.com/kskarthik) made their first contribution in [#​857](ankitpokhrel/jira-cli#857) **Full Changelog**: <ankitpokhrel/jira-cli@v1.6.0...v1.7.0> </details> --- ### Configuration 📅 **Schedule**: Branch creation - At any time (no schedule defined), Automerge - At any time (no schedule defined). 🚦 **Automerge**: Disabled by config.

Motivation
Adding support to parse the output of issues in plain mode,
Current problem
Current delimiter in plain mode is TAB (\t), but TAB is also used for padding the columns.
If the an issue has a value which requires more than one TAB for padding, eg where issue type is of "improvement",
then some columns will contain more than one TAB, hence not possible to parse in simple way.
Change:
Add command line arg delimiter for custom delimiter instead of tab supported only for plain mode for issues.
For backward compatibility and reduce risk of affecting other code, this new command line arg is applicable only for plain mode.
