NAME
bugzilla - command-line interface to Bugzilla over XML-RPC
SYNOPSIS
bugzilla [options] [command] [command-options]
DESCRIPTION
bugzilla is a command-line utility that allows access to the XML-RPC interface provided by Bugzilla.
command 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
GLOBAL OPTIONS
--version
show program's version number and exit
--help, -h
show this help message and exit
--bugzilla=BUGZILLA
bugzilla XMLRPC URI. default: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi
--nosslverify
Don't error on invalid bugzilla SSL certificate
--login
Run interactive "login" before performing the specified command.
--username=USERNAME
Log in with this username
--password=PASSWORD
Log in with this password
--ensure-logged-in
Raise an error if we aren't logged in to bugzilla. Consider using this if you are depending on
cached credentials, to ensure that when they expire the tool errors, rather than subtly change
output.
--no-cache-credentials

--cookiefile=COOKIEFILE
cookie file to use for bugzilla authentication
--tokenfile=TOKENFILE
token file to use for bugzilla authentication
--verbose
give more info about what's going on
--debug
output bunches of debugging info
--version
show program's version number and exit
Standard bugzilla options
These options are shared by some combination of the 'new', 'query', and 'modify' sub commands. Not every
option works for each command though.
--product=PRODUCT, -p PRODUCT
Product name
--version=VERSION, -v VERSION
Product version
--component=COMPONENT, -c COMPONENT
Component name
--summary=SUMMARY, -s SUMMARY, --short_desc=SUMMARY
Bug summary
--comment=DESCRIPTION, -l DESCRIPTION
Set initial bug comment/description
--sub-component=SUB_COMPONENT
RHBZ sub component name
--os=OS, -o OS
Operating system
--arch=ARCH
Arch this bug occurs on
--severity=SEVERITY, -x SEVERITY
Bug severity
--priority=PRIORITY, -z PRIORITY
Bug priority
--alias=ALIAS
Bug alias (name)
--status=STATUS, -s STATUS, --bug_status=STATUS
Bug status (NEW, ASSIGNED, etc.)
--url=URL, -u URL
URL for further bug info
--target_milestone=TARGET_MILESTONE, -m TARGET_MILESTONE
Target milestone
--target_release=TARGET_RELEASE
RHBZ Target release
--blocked=BUGID[, BUGID, ...]

Bug keywords
--groups=GROUP[, GROUP, ...]
Which user groups can view this bug
--cc=CC[, CC, ...]
CC list
--assigned_to=ASSIGNED_TO, -a ASSIGNED_TO, --assignee ASSIGNED_TO
Bug assignee
--qa_contact=QA_CONTACT, -q QA_CONTACT
QA contact
--whiteboard WHITEBOARD, -w WHITEBOARD, --status_whiteboard WHITEBOARD
Whiteboard field
--devel_whiteboard DEVEL_WHITEBOARD
RHBZ devel whiteboard field
--internal_whiteboard INTERNAL_WHITEBOARD
RHBZ internal whiteboard field
--qa_whiteboard QA_WHITEBOARD
RHBZ QA whiteboard field
--fixed_in FIXED_IN, -F FIXED_IN
RHBZ 'Fixed in version' field
--field=FIELD=VALUE
Manually specify a bugzilla XMLRPC field. FIELD is the raw name used by the bugzilla instance. For
example if your bugzilla instance has a custom field cf_my_field, do: --field cf_my_field=VALUE
Output options
These options are shared by several commands, for tweaking the text output of the command results.
--full, -f
output detailed bug info
--ids, -i
output only bug IDs
--extra, -e
output additional bug information (keywords, Whiteboards, etc.)
--oneline
one line summary of the bug (useful for scripts)
--raw raw output of the bugzilla contents
--outputformat=OUTPUTFORMAT
Print output in the form given. You can use RPM-style tags that match bug fields, e.g.: '%{id}:
%{summary}'.
The output of the bugzilla tool should NEVER BE PARSED unless you are using a custom
--outputformat. For everything else, just don't parse it, the formats are not stable and are
subject to change.
--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:
--outputformat "%{id}::%{component}::%{product}"
The fields (like 'id', 'component', etc.) are the names of the values returned by bugzilla's
XMLRPC interface. To see a list of all fields, check the API documentation in the 'SEE ALSO'
section. Alternatively, run a 'bugzilla --debug query ...' 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.
‘query’ specific options
Certain options can accept a comma separated list to query multiple values, including --status,
--component, --product, --version, --id.
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.
--id ID, -b ID, --bug_id ID
specify individual bugs by IDs, separated with commas
--reporter REPORTER, -r REPORTER
Email: search reporter email for given address
--quicksearch QUICKSEARCH
Search using bugzilla's quicksearch functionality.
--savedsearch SAVEDSEARCH
Name of a bugzilla saved search. If you don't own this saved search, you must passed
--savedsearch_sharer_id.
--savedsearch-sharer-id SAVEDSEARCH_SHARER_ID
Owner ID of the --savedsearch. You can get this ID from the URL bugzilla generates when running
the saved search from the web UI.
--from-url WEB_QUERY_URL
Make a working query via bugzilla's 'Advanced search' 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't forget to quote the string! This only works for Bugzilla 5 and Red Hat bugzilla
‘modify’ specific options
Fields that take multiple values have a special input format.
Append: --cc=foo@example.com
Overwrite: --cc==foo@example.com
Remove: --cc=-foo@example.com
Options that accept this format: --cc, --blocked, --dependson, --groups, --tags, whiteboard fields.
--close RESOLUTION, -k RESOLUTION
Close with the given resolution (WONTFIX, NOTABUG, etc.)
--dupeid ORIGINAL, -d ORIGINAL
ID of original bug. Implies --close DUPLICATE
--private
Mark new comment as private
--reset-assignee
Reset assignee to component default
--reset-qa-contact
Reset QA contact to component default
‘attach’ options
--file=FILENAME, -f FILENAME
File to attach, or filename for data provided on stdin
--description=DESCRIPTION, -d DESCRIPTION
A short description of the file being attached
--type=MIMETYPE, -t MIMETYPE
Mime-type for the file being attached
--get=ATTACHID, -g ATTACHID

‘info’ options
--products, -p

--components=PRODUCT, -c PRODUCT
List the components in the given product
--component_owners=PRODUCT, -o PRODUCT
List components (and their owners)
--versions=VERSION, -v VERSION
List the versions for the given product
AUTHENTICATION COOKIES AND TOKENS
Older bugzilla instances use cookie-based authentication, and newer bugzilla instances (around 5.0) use a
non-cookie token system.
When you log into bugzilla with the "login" subcommand or the "--login" argument, we cache the login
credentials in ~/.cache/python-bugzilla/ Previously we cached credentials in ~/.<filename>. If you want
to see which file the tool is using, check --debug output.
To perform an authenticated bugzilla command on a new machine, run a one time "bugzilla login" to cache
credentials before running the desired command. You can also run "bugzilla --login" and the login process
will be initiated before invoking the command.
Additionally, the --no-cache-credentials option will tell the bugzilla tool to _not_ save any credentials
in $HOME, or use any previously cached credentials.
EXAMPLES
bugzilla query --bug_id 62037
bugzilla query --version 15 --component python-bugzilla
# All boolean options can be formatted like this
bugzilla query --blocked "123456 | 224466"
bugzilla login
bugzilla new -p Fedora -v rawhide -c python-bugzilla \
--summary "python-bugzilla causes headaches" \
--comment "python-bugzilla made my brain hurt when I used it."
bugzilla attach --file ~/Pictures/cam1.jpg --desc "me, in pain" $BUGID
bugzilla attach --getall $BUGID
bugzilla modify --close NOTABUG --comment "Actually, you're hungover." $BUGID
EXIT STATUS
bugzilla normally returns 0 if the requested command was successful. Otherwise, exit status is 1 if
bugzilla 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 server returns an XML-RPC fault.
