DataBind Jira Data to the DevExpress Data Grid



Use the CData ADO.NET Provider for Jira with the DevExpress Windows Forms and Web controls to provide Jira data to a chart.

The ADO.NET Provider for Jira by CData incorporates conventional ADO.NET data access components compatible with third-party controls. You can adhere to the standard ADO.NET data binding procedures to establish two-way access to real-time data through UI controls. This article will demonstrate the utilization of CData components for data binding with DevExpress UI Controls (Windows Forms and Web controls), specifically binding to a chart that visualizes live data.

To connect to JIRA, provide the User and Password. Additionally, provide the Url; for example, https://yoursitename.atlassian.net.

Windows Forms Controls

The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress chart with Jira data. The JIRADataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart control. The Diagram property of the control defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.

using (JIRAConnection connection = new JIRAConnection( "User=admin;Password=123abc;Url=https://yoursitename.atlassian.net;")) { JIRADataAdapter dataAdapter = new JIRADataAdapter( "SELECT Projects.LeadName, Issues.Summary FROM Projects, Issues WHERE Projects.Id=Issues.ProjectId", connection); DataTable table = new DataTable(); dataAdapter.Fill(table); DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series(); chartControl1.Series.Add(series); series.DataSource = table; series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "TimeSpent" }); series.ArgumentScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Qualitative; series.ArgumentDataMember = "Summary"; series.ValueScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Numerical; chartControl1.Legend.Visibility = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.False; ((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true; }

Web Controls

The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress Web control with Jira data. The JIRADataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart; the Diagram property defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.

using DevExpress.XtraCharts; using (JIRAConnection connection = new JIRAConnection( "User=admin;Password=123abc;Url=https://yoursitename.atlassian.net;")) { JIRADataAdapter JIRADataAdapter1 = new JIRADataAdapter("SELECT Projects.LeadName, Issues.Summary FROM Projects, Issues WHERE Projects.Id=Issues.ProjectId", connection); DataTable table = new DataTable(); JIRADataAdapter1.Fill(table); DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new Series("Series1", ViewType.Bar); WebChartControl1.Series.Add(series); series.DataSource = table; series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "TimeSpent" }); series.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Qualitative; series.ArgumentDataMember = "Summary"; series.ValueScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical; ((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true; }
