Bugzilla feeds
12/13/10 14:13, by Christian Ruppert, Categories: Linux, Gentoo, English , Tags: bash, bugs, bugzilla, curl, feed, gentoo, liferea, news, shell If you ever wanted to use Bugzilla's feed to get each bug since your last query? Read on...
Bugzilla has two interesting variables, "chfieldfrom" and "chfieldto" which can be a time value. It can be a timestamp like from: date -u "+%Y-%m-%d+%H:%M".
But a small script is needed to use them properly. Some feed reader may have own variables which you can use directly in the source URL.
Code:
#!/bin/sh | |
| |
DATE_FILE=$HOME/.bugfeed | |
FEED_URL='https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?chfield=%5BBug%20creation%5D&chfieldfrom=DATE&chfieldto=Now&query_format=advanced&remaction=&title=Bug%20List&ctype=atom' | |
| |
if [ -f "${DATE_FILE}" ]; then | |
LAST_DATE=$(< $DATE_FILE) | |
else | |
LAST_DATE="-1d" | |
fi | |
| |
FEED_URL="$(echo "$FEED_URL"|sed "s/DATE/${LAST_DATE}/")" | |
#echo $FEED_URL | |
| |
DATE_NOW=$(date -u "+%Y-%m-%d+%H:%M") | |
curl "$FEED_URL" | |
| |
echo $DATE_NOW > $DATE_FILE |
The script stores the date value of your last query and uses it later as "chfieldfrom", "chfieldto" is always "now".
To use it in e.g. Liferea:
Liferea->Subscriptions->New Subscription->Advanced, select Command and choose your script. That's it.

Why not just use SD?

Because it's Bugzilla that we use in Gentoo.
