bitbucket-cmd

Bitbucket command line interface based on https://github.com/germanrcuriel/jira-cmd

Currently it is able to do these things from the command line:

• Store your encrypted bitbucket credentials
• List pull requests
• Create pull requets

Motivation

As a command line junky, I wanted to be able to create pull requests quickly without having to use bitbucket's browser interface. I also wanted to be able to list out all pull requests so I could be a more expedient merge master.

Installation

Install node.js.

Then, in your shell type:

$ npm install -g bitbucket-cmd

Usage

First use

$ bitbucket

It will prompte you for the repositories subdirectory url. IT AUTO-SUPPLIES THE PROPER BITBUCKET API URL PREFIX You type in your repo name (for example phase2tech/bla_dev_vm) and then hit return a couple times

Repository subdir URL: https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/

then the username/password prompt should appear

Username: xxxxxx
Password: xxxxxx

PLEASE note this password is an APP PASSword as described here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/app-passwords-828781300.html and NOT your account password

Once you hit enter after the password then you should get this message:

Information stored!

This saves your credentials (base64 encoded) in the ~/.bitbucket-cmd folder. Named config.json You can set a BITBUCKET_CONFIG environment variable to use a different directory (this allows for multiple sources of bitbucket repos) than the default current-working-direct/.bitbucket-cmd.

Reviewers

Please note that the "reviwers" section is added to the config.json file. I've added check to see if this section is empty and just submit PR's without reviewers if necessary. However it is sensitive. Valid default reviewer syntax is as follows:

{
  "auth": {
    "url": "https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/blabla/myawesomerepo/",
    "user": "yourbbusername",
    "token": "yourpasswordthatistokenizedforyou"
  },
  "reviewers": [
    { "username" : "yourbestbud" }
    ]
}

Your reviewers are setup in the bitbucket settings section on the bitbucket admin page of the repo. Please note the password is tokenized and hashed for you. So when prompted for the password just paste or type it in, and the bitbucket-cmd will tokenize it for you. That means what is stored in config.json is NOT what you typed in, just fyi.

Beware-of-the-json-death-by-brackets-syntax: Nested objects are a bitch - not much I can do about that.

Help

Usage: bitbucket [options] [command]

Commands:

pr

Sub-Options:

-h, --help     output usage information
-V, --version  output the version number

Each command have individual usage help (using --help or -h), so bitbucket pr -h will give pr specific help.

For example the pr command has these options

-l, --list                  List Open Pull Requests
-r, --merged                List Merged Pull Requests
-m, --merge <pr_num>        Merge Pull Request
-c, --create <title>        Create Pull Request
-d, --description <description>   Description for PR
-s, --source <branch name>  Source Branch
-t, --to <branch name>      Destination Branch
-f, --diff <pr_num>         Diff Pull Request
-d, --decline <pr_num>      Decline Pull Request

Usage:

bitbucket pr -l

The above command will output something like this:

 ID    Author        Source                             Destination     Title                                               State  Reviewers
