Jira Issue Key Parser

Issue key parser is a simple library used to parse strings for Jira issue keys from commit messages, branches, and pull requests.

This library accepts keys that follow these patterns:

• JRA-123 (all uppercase)
• jRA-123 (some uppercase, some lowercase - any order)
• jra-123 (all lowercase - any order)
• J2-123 (first part of key alphanumeric)
• [JRA-123] (keys inside square brackets)
• (JRA-123) (keys inside square brackets)
• #JRA-123 (keys prefixed with hash)

Patterns that are not accepted:

• 22-123 (issue key starts with a number)
• JRA 123 (missing hyphen from key)

Usage

After installing and importing, simply call the parse method on issueKeyParser and pass in a string e.g issueKeyParser().parse(JRA-123 my commit message).
