.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
\fBbugzilla\fP [\fIoptions\fP] [\fIcommand\fP] [\fIcommand\-options\fP]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBbugzilla\fP is a command line tool for interacting with a Bugzilla
instance over REST or XMLRPC.
.nf

\fIcommand\fP is one of:
* login \- log into the given bugzilla instance
* new \- create a new bug
* query \- search for bugs matching given criteria
* modify \- modify existing bugs
* attach \- attach files to existing bugs, or get attachments
* info \- get info about the given bugzilla instance
.fi
.sp

.sp
show this help message and exit

preferring XMLRPC for backwards compatibility.

.SH OUTPUT OPTIONS
.sp
These options are shared by several commands, for tweaking the text
output of the command results.
.SS \fB\-f, \-\-full\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-full\fP
.sp
output detailed bug info
.SS \fB\-i, \-\-ids\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-ids\fP
.sp

.SS \fB\-e, \-\-extra\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-extra\fP
.sp
output additional bug information (keywords, Whiteboards, etc.)
.SS \fB\-\-oneline\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-oneline\fP
.sp
one line summary of the bug (useful for scripts)
.SS \fB\-\-json\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-json\fP
.sp
output bug contents in JSON format
.SS \fB\-\-includefield\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-includefield\fP
.sp
Pass the field name to bugzilla include_fields list.
Only the fields passed to include_fields are returned
by the bugzilla server.
This can be specified multiple times.
.SS \fB\-\-extrafield\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-extrafield\fP
.sp
Pass the field name to bugzilla extra_fields list.
When used with \-\-json this can be used to request
bugzilla to return values for non\-default fields.
This can be specified multiple times.
.SS \fB\-\-excludefield\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-excludefield\fP
.sp
Pass the field name to bugzilla exclude_fields list.
When used with \-\-json this can be used to request
bugzilla to not return values for a field.
This can be specified multiple times.
.SS \fB\-\-raw\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-raw\fP
.sp
raw output of the bugzilla contents. This format is unstable and
difficult to parse. Please use the \fB\-\-json\fP instead if you want
maximum output from the \fIbugzilla\fP
.SS \fB\-\-outputformat\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-outputformat\fP OUTPUTFORMAT
.sp
Print output in the form given. You can use RPM\-style tags that match
bug fields, e.g.: \(aq%{id}: %{summary}\(aq.
.sp
The output of the bugzilla tool should NEVER BE PARSED unless you are
using a custom \-\-outputformat. For everything else, just don\(aqt parse it,
the formats are not stable and are subject to change.
.sp
\-\-outputformat allows printing arbitrary bug data in a user preferred
format. For example, to print a returned bug ID, component, and product,
separated with ::, do:
.sp
\-\-outputformat "%{id}::%{component}::%{product}"
.sp
The fields (like \(aqid\(aq, \(aqcomponent\(aq, etc.) are the names of the values
returned by bugzilla\(aqs API. To see a list of all fields,
check the API documentation in the \(aqSEE ALSO\(aq section. Alternatively,
run a \(aqbugzilla \-\-debug query ...\(aq and look at the key names returned in
the query results. Also, in most cases, using the name of the associated
command line switch should work, like \-\-bug_status becomes
%{bug_status}, etc.
.SH ‘QUERY’ SPECIFIC OPTIONS
.sp
Certain options can accept a comma separated list to query multiple
values, including \-\-status, \-\-component, \-\-product, \-\-version, \-\-id.
.sp
Note: querying via explicit command line options will only get you so
far. See the \-\-from\-url option for a way to use powerful Web UI queries
from the command line.

.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-savedsearch\-sharer\-id\fP SAVEDSEARCH_SHARER_ID
.sp

bugzilla generates when running the saved search from the web UI.
.SS \fB\-\-from\-url\fP
.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-from\-url\fP WEB_QUERY_URL
.sp
Make a working query via bugzilla\(aqs \(aqAdvanced search\(aq web UI, grab
the url from your browser (the string with query.cgi or buglist.cgi
in it), and \-\-from\-url will run it via the bugzilla API. Don\(aqt forget
to quote the string! This only works for Bugzilla 5 and Red Hat
bugzilla
.SH ‘MODIFY’ SPECIFIC OPTIONS
.sp
Fields that take multiple values have a special input format.
.nf

.sp
\fBSyntax:\fP \fB\-\-active\-components\fP
.sp

.SH AUTHENTICATION CACHE AND API KEYS
.sp
Some command usage will require an active login to the bugzilla
instance. For example, if the bugzilla instance has some private bugs,
those bugs will be missing from \(aqquery\(aq output if you do not have an
active login.
.sp
If you are connecting to a bugzilla 5.0 or later instance, the best
option is to use bugzilla API keys. From the bugzilla web UI, log in,
navigate to Preferences\->API Keys, and generate a key (it will be a long
string of characters and numbers). Then create a
~/.config/python\-bugzilla/bugzillarc like this:
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
$ cat ~/.config/python\-bugzilla/bugzillarc

[bugzilla.example.com]
api_key=YOUR_API_KEY
.ft P
.fi
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Replace \(aqbugzilla.example.com\(aq with your bugzilla host name, and
YOUR_API_KEY with the generated API Key from the Web UI.
.sp
Alternatively, you can use \(aqbugzilla login \-\-api\-key\(aq, which will ask
for the API key, and save it to bugzillarc for you.
.sp
For older bugzilla instances, you will need to cache a login cookie or
token with the "login" subcommand or the "\-\-login" argument.
.sp
Additionally, the \-\-no\-cache\-credentials option will tell the bugzilla
tool to \fInot\fP save or use any authentication cache, including the
bugzillarc file.
.SH EXAMPLES
.nf
bugzilla query \-\-bug_id 62037

bugzilla query \-\-version 15 \-\-component python\-bugzilla

bugzilla login

bugzilla new \-p Fedora \-v rawhide \-c python\-bugzilla \e
.in +2

$BUGID

bugzilla attach \-\-getall $BUGID

bugzilla modify \-\-close NOTABUG \-\-comment "Actually, you\(aqre
hungover." $BUGID
.fi
.sp
.SH EXIT STATUS
.sp
\fBbugzilla\fP normally returns 0 if the requested command was successful.
Otherwise, exit status is 1 if \fBbugzilla\fP is interrupted by the user
(or a login attempt fails), 2 if a socket error occurs (e.g. TCP
connection timeout), and 3 if the Bugzilla server throws an error.
