RFC: JIRA module

Hi,

I’d like to ask for reviewers and comments for a JIRA module for Ansible:

https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/6168

It was developed as one our intermittent hackathons, but has fairly complete functionality (for issue-related actions at least) and documentation. It’s starting to see some interest internally, and I’d like to get some gauge of interest from the community; if sufficient I’ll push to get it into the 1.6 release, otherwise I can maintain it as fork.

Disclaimer: I work for Atlassian.

Cheers,
Steve

Of note, to get this into 1.6, you will likely need to switch your requests over to use the new fetch_url function that ansible now provides. See the following commits for some info:

https://github.com/ansible/ansible/commit/9730157525c8cd539c2f657f40c34b73bb189e44
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/commit/a9017af2bb648930e27bab52de12f9983411778c

Thanks for the heads-up. I’ve reworked it to use fetch_url, although it required manipulating the basic-auth header directly as JIRA’s API doesn’t follow the usual semantics. PR is here:
