bugzilla-submit
===============

Authors: Christian Reis <[e-mail]>

bugzilla-submit is a simple Python program that creates bugs in a Bugzilla
instance. It takes as input text resembling message headers (RFC-822
formatted) via standard input, or optionally a number of commandline
parameters. It communicates using HTTP, which allows it to work over a
network.

Requirements
------------

Its only requirement is Python 2.3 or higher; you should have the
"python" executable in your path.

Usage Notes
-----------

* Please constrain testing to your own installation of Bugzilla, or use
* http://landfill.bugzilla.org/ for testing purposes -- opening test
* bugs on production instances of Bugzilla is definitely not a good idea

Run "bugzilla-submit --help" for a description of the possible options.

An example input file, named bugdata.txt, is provided. You can pipe it
in as standard input to bugzilla-submit, providing a Bugzilla URI through
the command-line.

Note that you must create a ~/.netrc entry to authenticate against the
Bugzilla instance. The entry's machine field is a *quoted* Bugzilla URI,
the login field is your ID on that host, and the password field is the
your password password. An example entry follows:

    machine "http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/"
    login [e-mail]
    password snarf
