Redmine

Hello,

do you find a solution for your problem? I am also searching for a way to migrate from Jira to Redmine.

Thank you

Best regards

Yes,but:

My company gave me the task of making it work. A big task. The code size is now more than twice as big.
The individual rakes had to be enlarged. New ones had to be written. A lot of things were missing. For example: the customs fields. The workflows are read in too simplified. The statuses do not correspond to the specifications, etc.

To share my solution, I have to wait for the ok from my company first.

Thank you very much for the answer.
In the meantime I have made some progress. I found out that there was data in the JIRA backup through a plug-in, which is why the importer could not handle the backup file.
Furthermore, the users were not assigned to the projects.
Yes the customfields are among other things still a problem, so I am of course very curious whether the release of your company get.

The users who are not assigned to projects can be fished out in this way:

def self.parse_anonymous_users()
    log_ids=[]
    $doc.elements.each("entity-engine-xml/AuditChangedValue[@name='Username']") do |node|
      delta_to = node.attributes.get_attribute("deltaTo").value if   node.attributes.get_attribute("deltaTo")
        if  !$MIGRATED_USERS_BY_USERNAME[delta_to]
          log_id = node.attributes.get_attribute("logId").value if   node.attributes.get_attribute("logId")
          if log_id
            log_ids.push(log_id) 
          end
        end
    end
    log_ids
  end

Thank you very much,

How satisfactory was the transition from Jira to Redmine?

95%

Small corrections to the workflow are still necessary manually.
20 projects, some of them large, migrated within 2 hours. Post-corrections approx. 3 hrs.

Various plug-ins were migrated as custom fields. These do not make sense. Manually deleted in Redmine.

One of the plugins that has been adopted as a custom field is:
Epic Colour:
Description:
The Epic Colour field is for use with Jira software only.

Hello Jörg Heyer

My boss agrees in principle that we share the "migrate_jira.rake" with you, but he still has a few questions and would like you to contact him.

matthias.uhde@projektfokus.ch

Could you have a quick chat with him?

Best regards

Hello Heribert Gasparoli,

I have sent an e-mail to Mr Uhde, thank you very much.

Hi, did you get an answer?
I've also written an email.

It would save a ton of time for our team.

I have recently moved our company Jira to Redmine, fairly complex (data accumulated > 10 years), ~500 users, ~100 projects, ~100 000 issues.

https://gitlab.com/rk86/redmine-jira-import

It is not simple, multi-step process, if you expect one-click solution - this is not (and I don't believe there could be).
Basically I needed to learn Ruby (to some level) just to be able to handle this task.

I would be glad if it helps anybody.

Regards,
Alex

Heribert,

Sorry, your comment makes no sense.
All my source code is available on the link I provided, if it helps anybody - great.
No agreement of "sharing" is required.
Neither I need any help from you - our migration is done.

Alex

Sorry Alex

I read it wrong. Not quite awake yet.
