Replicate Multiple Jira Accounts
Replicate multiple Jira accounts to one or many databases.
CData Sync for Jira is a stand-alone application that provides solutions for a variety of replication scenarios such as replicating sandbox and production instances into your database. Both Sync for Windows and Sync for Java include a command-line interface (CLI) that makes it easy to manage multiple Jira connections. In this article we show how to use the CLI to replicate multiple Jira accounts.
Configure Jira Connections
You can save connection and email notification settings in an XML configuration file. To replicate multiple Jira accounts, use multiple configuration files. Below is an example configuration to replicate Jira to SQLite:
Windows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CDataSync>
<DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType>
<DatabaseProvider>System.Data.SQLite</DatabaseProvider>
<ConnectionString>User=admin;Password=123abc;Url=https://yoursitename.atlassian.net;</ConnectionString>
<ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll>
<NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName>
<DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString>
<TaskSchedulerStartTime>09:51</TaskSchedulerStartTime>
<TaskSchedulerInterval>Never</TaskSchedulerInterval>
</CDataSync>
Java
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CDataSync>
<DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType>
<DatabaseProvider>org.sqlite.JDBC</DatabaseProvider>
<ConnectionString>User=admin;Password=123abc;Url=https://yoursitename.atlassian.net;</ConnectionString>
<ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll>
<NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName>
<DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString>
</CDataSync>
To connect to JIRA, provide the User and Password. Additionally, provide the Url; for example, https://yoursitename.atlassian.net.
Configure Queries for Each Jira Instance
Sync enables you to control replication with standard SQL. The REPLICATE statement is a high-level command that caches and maintains a table in your database. You can define any SELECT query supported by the Jira API. The statement below caches and incrementally updates a table of Jira data:
REPLICATE Issues;
You can specify a file containing the replication queries you want to use to update a particular database. Separate replication statements with semicolons. The following options are useful if you are replicating multiple Jira accounts into the same database:
You can use a different table prefix in the REPLICATE SELECT statement:
REPLICATE PROD_Issues SELECT * FROM Issues
Alternatively, you can use a different schema:
REPLICATE PROD.Issues SELECT * FROM Issues
Run Sync
After you have configured the connection strings and replication queries, you can run Sync with the following command-line options:
Windows
JIRASync.exe -g MyProductionJIRAConfig.xml -f MyProductionJIRASync.sql
Java
java -Xbootclasspath/p:c:\sqlitejdbc.jar -jar JIRASync.jar -g MyProductionJIRAConfig.xml -f MyProductionJIRASync.sql
