Custom Jira Announcement Banner

Summary

The announcement banner in Jira was designed as a place where announcements can be made to all JIRA users. Basically it is a piece of HTML that is customizable and displayed on every JIRA page.

Here we use it to customize jira using javascript for two reasons - to add features and to show how easy it is to further customize Jira.

Setup

Must be Jira Admin to edit the Announcement banner. It is simple as something like this:

<script>
AJS.$.getScript('https://cdn.rawgit.com/chadn/custom-jira-javascript/master/custom-jira.js', function() {
    try {
        window.cj = AJS.CustomJira();
    } catch (e) {
        console.warn("Skipping CustomJira in announcement banner, error: ", e);
    }
});
</script>

You can also look at the included announcement-banner.js to see more advanced example of using custom-jira.js
