Implements the Atlassian FishEye API for GitLab, so that you can view GitLab commits in JIRA.

It's better than all the JIRA Git plugins because it displays the commits in a separate "Source" tab instead of adding a comment or activity for each commit.

• Simulates a part of the FishEye API
• Works with the JIRA FishEye plugin 5.0.7, 5.0.10 and 7.0.13
• Shows commits on issues (Tab "Source")
• Shows commits for projects (Tab "Source")

• Showing files that got changed in a commit.
• Project statistics
• Authentication - everyone can see all commits
• Activity streams

JIRA's issue source tab

JIRA's project source tab

Klonfisch is a PHP application that sits between JIRA and GitLab.

GitLab sends commit information to Klonfisch which stores them in a MySQL database. This is done via "web hooks".

JIRA on the other hand talks to Klonfisch, asking for commit information for projects or single issues. Klonfisch searches in the commit database and returns them to JIRA. JIRA then displays the commits in the "Source" tab of issues and projects.

You just have to install the FishEye plugin for JIRA, which takes care of talking to Klonfisch and the commit visualization.

• PHP 5.3+
• Apache with mod_rewrite enabled
• MySQL (or any other database supported by PDO)

1. git clone the klonfisch git repository
2. Create a (MySQL) database to store the commits in
3. Import data/database.sql into that database
4. Copy data/klonfisch.config.php.dist to data/klonfisch.config.php and adjust it to your environment.
5. Setup your (apache) webserver by adding a virtual host and pointing its document root to $klonfisch/www/

Klonfisch keeps record of commits to your GitLab instance via web hooks. You can setup them manually in the database, or let Klonfisch create the hooks automatically.

In every GitLab project (repository), you have to do this:

1. In GitLab project settings, click "Web Hooks"
2. Add a new Web Hook for commits only, to the URL http://klonfisch.example.org/webhook-call.php

Make a copy of data/gitlab-klonfisch.sql.dist and replace http://klonfisch.example.org with your klonfisch domain.

Then let cron run the following command every hour on the GitLab server:

gitlab-rails dbconsole < gitlab-klonfisch.sql

GitLab will then call /webhook-call.php for each single commit to a repository.

1. Install the FishEye plugin. Just installation, no configuration
2. Go to Administration / Applications / Application Links
3. Click "Add Application Link"
4. Set the Server URL, e.g. http://klonfisch.gitlab.example.org/
5. Disable Also create a link from "klonfisch" back to to this server
6. Finish the application link setup

Hide the review buttons:

1. Click "Configure FishEye Server" in the application links list
2. Set "Integration setup" to "FishEye integration only"

That's it. You do not need to setup any authentication. You do not need to setup any project connections.

Now do a commit, mentioning the issue number (e.g. "JGA-11") in the commit message. You will see the commit in JIRA's "Source" tab.

Also see Missing features.

Klonfisch simulates only one git repository, mainly to reduce the number of requests from JIRA. (helpful if you have 700+ repositories, and 200+ repositories for a single JIRA project) This leads to the issue that only the repository "test" is shown for the commits, even though they are from a different repository.

Use the branch link instead (master in $project/$repo).

After removing an application link, you need to disable the FishEye plugin and re-enable it again.

If you fail to do so, you will see errors like

This list may be incomplete, as errors occurred whilst retrieving source from linked applications:

Repository test on http://klonfisch.example.org/ failed: The application link with id '46bc9c7c-0bad-3503-9ddf-0123456789ab' was not found for instance 'FishEyeInstanceImpl...'
