usage

var bugzilla = bz.createClient();
 
bugzilla.getBug(678223, function(error, bug) {
  if (!error) {
    alert(bug.summary);
  }
});

API

bz.createClient(options) creates a new Bugzilla API client, optionally takes options like the JSON-RPC API url and username + password:

var bugzilla = bz.createClient({
  url: "https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/jsonrpc.cgi",
  username: 'bugs@bugmail.com',
  password: 'secret'
});

Client methods

Each method takes a callback that takes an error message (if any kind of error occurs) as its first argument, and the expected return data as its second.

getBug(id, callback)
retrieves a bug given a bug id.
