- ** THIS IS AN UNSUPPORTED PREVIEW RELEASE **
- ** PLEASE REPORT BUGS TO rt-bugs@bestpractical.com **
-
- This is a command-line interface to RT 3.0 or newer
+ This is a command-line interface to RT 3.0 or newer.
It allows you to interact with an RT server over HTTP, and offers an
interface to RT's functionality that is better-suited to automation
The program looks for configuration directives in a file named .rtrc
(or $RTCONFIG; see below) in the current directory, and then in more
distant ancestors, until it reaches /. If no suitable configuration
- files are found, it will also check for ~/.rtrc and /etc/rt.conf.
+ files are found, it will also check for ~/.rtrc, @LOCAL_ETC_PATH@/rt.conf
+ and /etc/rt.conf.
Configuration directives:
The following directives may occur, one per line:
- - server <URL> URL to RT server.
- - user <username> RT username.
- - passwd <passwd> RT user's password.
- - query <RT Query> Default RT Query for list action
- - orderby <order> Default RT order for list action
+ - server <URL> URL to RT server.
+ - user <username> RT username.
+ - passwd <passwd> RT user's password.
+ - query <RT Query> Default RT Query for list action
+ - orderby <order> Default RT order for list action
+ - queue <queuename> Default RT Queue for list action
+ - auth <rt|basic|gssapi> Method to authenticate via; "basic"
+ means HTTP Basic authentication, "gssapi" means
+ Kerberos credentials, if your RT is configured
+ with $WebRemoteUserAuth. For backwards
+ compatibility, "externalauth 1" means "auth basic"
Blank and #-commented lines are ignored.
+ Sample configuration file contents:
+
+ server https://rt.somewhere.com/
+ # more than one queue can be given (by adding a query expression)
+ queue helpdesk or queue=support
+ query Status != resolved and Owner=myaccount
+
+
Environment variables:
The following environment variables override any corresponding
- RTUSER
- RTPASSWD
+ - RTAUTH
- RTSERVER
- RTDEBUG Numeric debug level. (Set to 3 for full logs.)
- RTCONFIG Specifies a name other than ".rtrc" for the
"user/root,1-3,5,7-10,ams" is a list of ten users; the same list
can also be written as "user/ams,root,1,2,3,5,7,8-10".
+ If just a number is given as object specification it will be
+ interpreted as ticket/<number>
+
Examples:
+ 1 # the same as ticket/1
ticket/1
ticket/1/attachments
ticket/1/attachments/3
ticket/1-3,5-7/history
user/ams
- user/ams/rights
- user/ams,rai,1/rights
For more information:
- rt help <action> (action-specific details)
- rt help types (a list of possible types)
+ The following actions on tickets are also possible:
+
+ - comment Add comments to a ticket
+ - correspond Add comments to a ticket
+ - merge Merge one ticket into another
+ - link Link one ticket to another
+ - take Take a ticket (steal and untake are possible as well)
+
+ For several edit set subcommands that are frequently used abbreviations
+ have been introduced. These abbreviations are:
+
+ - delete or del delete a ticket (edit set status=deleted)
+ - resolve or res resolve a ticket (edit set status=resolved)
+ - subject change subject of ticket (edit set subject=string)
+ - give give a ticket to somebody (edit set owner=user)

Text:
Displays a list of objects matching the specified conditions.
("ls", "list", and "search" are synonyms.)
- Conditions are expressed in the SQL-like syntax used internally by
- RT3. (For more information, see "rt help query".) The query string
- must be supplied as one argument.
+ The query string must be supplied as one argument.
+
+ if on tickets, query is in the SQL-like syntax used internally by
+ RT. (For more information, see "rt help query".), otherwise, query
+ is plain string with format "FIELD OP VALUE", e.g. "Name = General".
- (Right now, the server doesn't support listing anything but tickets.
- Other types will be supported in future; this client will be able to
- take advantage of that support without any changes.)
+ if query string is absent, we limit to privileged ones on users and
+ user defined ones on groups automatically.
Options:
The following options control how much information is displayed
about each matching object:
- -i Numeric IDs only. (Useful for |rt edit -; see examples.)
- -s Short description.
- -l Longer description.
+ -i Numeric IDs only. (Useful for |rt edit -; see examples.)
+ -s Short description.
+ -l Longer description.
+ -f <field[s] Display only the fields listed and the ticket id
In addition,
- -o +/-<field> Orders the returned list by the specified field.
- -S var=val Submits the specified variable with the request.
- -t type Specifies the type of object to look for. (The
- default is "ticket".)
+ -o +/-<field> Orders the returned list by the specified field.
+ -r reversed order (useful if a default was given)
+ -q queue[s] restricts the query to the queue[s] given
+ multiple queues are separated by comma
+ -S var=val Submits the specified variable with the request.
+ -t type Specifies the type of object to look for. (The
+ default is "ticket".)
Examples:
- rt ls "Priority > 5 and Status='new'"
- rt ls -o +Subject "Priority > 5 and Status='new'"
- rt ls -o -Created "Priority > 5 and Status='new'"
+ rt ls "Priority > 5 and Status=new"
+ rt ls -o +Subject "Priority > 5 and Status=new"
+ rt ls -o -Created "Priority > 5 and Status=new"
rt ls -i "Priority > 5"|rt edit - set status=resolved
rt ls -t ticket "Subject like '[PATCH]%'"
+ rt ls -q systems
+ rt ls -f owner,subject
+ rt ls -t queue 'Name = General'
+ rt ls -t user 'EmailAddress like foo@bar.com'
+ rt ls -t group 'Name like foo'
--
that refers to the links for tickets 1-3). Consult "rt help <type>"
and "rt help objects" for further details.
+ If only a number is given it will be interpreted as the objects
+ ticket/number and ticket/number/history
+
This command writes a set of forms representing the requested object
data to STDOUT.
Options:
+ The following options control how much information is displayed
+ about each matching object:
+
+ Without any formatting options prettyprinted output is generated.
+ Giving any of the two options below reverts to raw output.
+ -s Short description (history and attachments only).
+ -l Longer description (history and attachments only).
+
+ In addition,
- Read IDs from STDIN instead of the command-line.
-t type Specifies object type.
-f a,b,c Restrict the display to the specified fields.
-S var=val Submits the specified variable with the request.
- -v Verbose display
+
Examples:
rt show -t ticket -f id,subject,status 1-3
rt show ticket/3/attachments/29/content
rt show ticket/1-3/links
rt show ticket/3/history
- rt show -v ticket/3/history
+ rt show -l ticket/3/history
rt show -t user 2
+ rt show 2
--
Edits information corresponding to the specified objects.
+ A purely numeric object id nnn is translated into ticket/nnn
+
If, instead of "edit", an action of "new" or "create" is specified,
then a new object is created. In this case, no numeric object IDs
may be specified, but the syntax and behaviour remain otherwise
-S var=val
Submits the specified variable with the request.
-t type Specifies object type.
+ -ct content-type Specifies content type of message(tickets only).
Examples:
# Interactive (starts $EDITOR with a form).
rt edit ticket/3
rt create -t ticket
+ rt create -t ticket -ct text/html
# Non-interactive.
- rt edit ticket/1-3 add cc=foo@example.com set priority=3
+ rt edit ticket/1-3 add cc=foo@example.com set priority=3 due=tomorrow
rt ls -t tickets -i 'Priority > 5' | rt edit - set status=resolved
rt edit ticket/4 set priority=3 owner=bar@example.com \
add cc=foo@example.com bcc=quux@example.net
Options:
-m <text> Specify comment text.
+ -ct <content-type> Specify content-type of comment text.
-a <file> Attach a file to the comment. (May be used more
than once to attach multiple files.)
-c <addrs> A comma-separated list of Cc addresses.
-b <addrs> A comma-separated list of Bcc addresses.
+ -s <status> Set a new status for the ticket (default will
+ leave the status unchanged)
-w <time> Specify the time spent working on this ticket.
-e Starts an editor before the submission, even if
arguments from the command line were sufficient.

+ If Value is a string it must be quoted and may contain the wildcard
+ character %. If the string does not contain white space, the quoting
+ may however be omitted, it will be added automatically when parsing
+ the input.
+
+ Simple query expressions can be combined using and, or and parentheses
+ can be used to group expressions.
+
+ As a special case a standalone string (which would not form a correct
+ query) is transformed into (Owner='string' or Requestor like 'string%')
+ and added to the default query, i.e. the query is narrowed down.
+
+ If no Queue=name clause is contained in the query, a default clause
+ Queue=$config{queue} is added.
+
+ Examples:
+ Status!='resolved' and Status!='rejected'
+ (Owner='myaccount' or Requestor like 'myaccount%') and Status!='resolved'
