This section documents them. + + +
+ Command-line Search Interface + + + There are a suite of Unix utilities for searching Bugzilla from the + command line. They live in the + contrib/cmdline directory. + There are three files - query.conf, + buglist and bugs. + + + + + These files pre-date the templatization work done as part of the + 2.16 release, and have not been updated. + + + + + query.conf contains the mapping from + options to field names and comparison types. Quoted option names + are grepped for, so it should be easy to edit this + file. Comments (#) have no effect; you must make sure these lines + do not contain any quoted option. + + + + buglist is a shell script that submits a + Bugzilla query and writes the resulting HTML page to stdout. + It supports both short options, (such as -Afoo + or -Rbar) and long options (such + as --assignedto=foo or --reporter=bar). + If the first character of an option is not -, it is + treated as if it were prefixed with --default=. + + + + The column list is taken from the COLUMNLIST environment variable. + This is equivalent to the Change Columns option + that is available when you list bugs in buglist.cgi. If you have + already used Bugzilla, grep for COLUMNLIST in your cookies file + to see your current COLUMNLIST setting. + + + + bugs is a simple shell script which calls + buglist and extracts the + bug numbers from the output. Adding the prefix + http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?bug_id= + turns the bug list into a working link if any bugs are found. + Counting bugs is easy. Pipe the results through + sed -e 's/,/ /g' | wc | awk '{printf $2 "\n"}' + + + + Akkana Peck says she has good results piping + buglist output through + w3m -T text/html -dump + + +
+ +
+ Command-line 'Send Unsent Bug-mail' tool + + + Within the contrib directory + exists a utility with the descriptive (if compact) name + of sendunsentbugmail.pl. The purpose of this + script is, simply, to send out any bug-related mail that should + have been sent by now, but for one reason or another has not. + + + + To accomplish this task, sendunsentbugmail.pl uses + the same mechanism as the sanitycheck.cgi script; + it scans through the entire database looking for bugs with changes that + were made more than 30 minutes ago, but where there is no record of + anyone related to that bug having been sent mail. Having compiled a list, + it then uses the standard rules to determine who gets mail, and sends it + out. + + + + As the script runs, it indicates the bug for which it is currently + sending mail; when it has finished, it gives a numerical count of how + many mails were sent and how many people were excluded. (Individual + user names are not recorded or displayed.) If the script produces + no output, that means no unsent mail was detected. + + + + Usage: move the sendunsentbugmail.pl script + up into the main directory, ensure it has execute permission, and run it + from the command line (or from a cron job) with no parameters. + +
