Jira SDK nuget

Accessing Atlassian Jira from a .NET application can be done very easily by installing the Atlassian Jira SDK.

Install-Package Atlassian.SDK

From the nuget console.

This introduces the Jira assembly with alot of different classes and helper functions. E.g. one can connect to Jira using:

Jira.CreateRestClient(url, username, password)

which instantiates the Jira class which can be used to get Versions, Issues, etc. from Jira. A real treat using this library is that it proved Async methods, i.e. await keyword can be used throughout the usage.

getting all Versions of a specific project/key can be done using:

var results = await jiraConn.Versions.GetVersionsAsync(key)

getting issues using a specific JQL query can be done using:

var results = await jiraConn.Issues.GetIssuesFromJqlAsync(jql)

super easy!
