## Setup ##
The URL for your JIRA instance is set by `$JIRA_URL` or a `.jira_url` file.
Add a `.jira-url` file in the base of your project. You can also set `$JIRA_URL` in your `~/.zshrc` or put a `.jira-url` in your home directory. A `.jira-url` in the current directory takes precedence, so you can make per-project customizations.
The same goes with `.jira-prefix` and `$JIRA_PREFIX`. These control the prefix added to all issue IDs, which differentiates projects within a JIRA instance.
For example:
```
cd to/my/project
echo "https://jira.atlassian.com" >> .jira-url
```
(Note: The current implementation only looks in the current directory for `.jira-url` and `.jira-prefix`, not up the path, so if you are in a subdirectory of your project, it will fall back to your default JIRA URL. This will probably change in the future though.)
### Variables ###
*`$JIRA_URL` - Your JIRA instance's URL
*`$JIRA_NAME` - Your JIRA username; used as the default user for `assigned`/`reported` searches
*`$JIRA_PREFIX` - Prefix added to issue ID arguments
*`$JIRA_RAPID_BOARD` - Set to `true` if you use Rapid Board
*`$JIRA_DEFAULT_ACTION` - Action to do when `jira` is called with no arguments; defaults to "new"
### Browser ###
Your default web browser, as determined by how `open_command` handles `http://` URLs, is used for interacting with the JIRA instance. If you change your system's URL handler associations, it will change the browser that `jira` uses.
