Fogbugz Command Line Client

Built out of a desire to automate some FogBugz tasks, I've thrown this CLI together using the ruby-fogbugz wrapper. It's also great if you want a quick list of your current tasks, or a quick summary of any number of cases. See the output of fogbugz --help for details. You can get additional help on individual commands by adding the --help flag (fogbugz list --help, for example).

See this post for information on valid search syntax: http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/4399/

Features

• Search for cases
• Show cases
• List objects (people, projects, categories, statuses, areas, wikis, mailboxes)
• Resolve cases (with an additional flag to Resolve and Close in one shot)
• Close cases
• Reopen cases
• Easy to use interface
• Easy configuration
