Configuration

The app looks for an ops-watcher.yaml file which should contain the following:

jira_username: my.email@mydomain.com
jira_password: jiraapikey
jira_baseurl: https://example.atlassian.net
jira_enabled: true
jira_query:
  - <as many JQL queries as you like without and filters by date>
  - watcher = currentUser()

Alternatively, the config can contain a field called jira_token which if present will take preference over user name and password for bearer auth style communication with Jira

When the app runs, it queries the JIRA API every minute for each JQL query in the configuration.
If a new issue has been raised or updated for any of those queries since the last run, a Mac OS push notification is sent using the terminal-notification command.
