[Vedat]

Hi,

l need your help regarding groovy script statement.

l had a mistake in the following statement:

After equals, statement gives an error.

Thanks a lot.

Hello,

Could you provide the whole script?

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def tamamlanmaTarihiCf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(111111)
Timestamp tamamlanmaTarihi = issue.getCustomFieldValue(tamamlanmaTarihiCf)
def lastClosedDateCf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(222222)
Timestamp lastClosedDate = issue.getCustomFieldValue(lastClosedDateCf)

String statusId = issue.getStatusObject().getSimpleStatus().getId()
String bulguDurumu = ''

if(issue.getProjectId().toString() == '123444' && issue.getIssueTypeId() == '1234'){

if(statusId == '10'){

if(lastClosedDate.compareTo(tamamlanmaTarihi) > 0){

bulguDurumu = 'xxxxx'

}
else{

bulguDurumu = 'yyyyyy'

}

}
else{

Timestamp now = new Timestamp(Calendar.getInstance().getTimeInMillis())

if(tamamlanmaTarihi){

if(now.compareTo(tamamlanmaTarihi) > 0){

bulguDurumu = 'aaaaaaaa'

}

}
}

}

}

return bulguDurumu

You need to convert Object to Timestamp. And you incorrectly initialize custom fields. It should be like this

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import java.sql.Timestamp


def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def tamamlanmaTarihiCf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("fieldName")
Timestamp tamamlanmaTarihi = (Timestamp) issue.getCustomFieldValue(tamamlanmaTarihiCf)
def lastClosedDateCf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("fieldName")
Timestamp lastClosedDate = (Timestamp) issue.getCustomFieldValue(lastClosedDateCf)

String statusId = issue.getStatusObject().getSimpleStatus().getId()
String bulguDurumu = ''

if(issue.getProjectId().toString() == '123444' && issue.getIssueTypeId() == '1234'){

if(statusId == '10'){

if(lastClosedDate.compareTo(tamamlanmaTarihi) > 0){

bulguDurumu = 'xxxxx'

}
else{

bulguDurumu = 'yyyyyy'

}

}
else{

Timestamp now = new Timestamp(Calendar.getInstance().getTimeInMillis())

if(tamamlanmaTarihi){

if(now.compareTo(tamamlanmaTarihi) > 0){

bulguDurumu = 'aaaaaaaa'

}
else{

bulguDurumu = 'bbbbbbbb'

}
}
else{

bulguDurumu = 'ccccccccc'

}
}

}

return bulguDurumu

If you use 13921L then you should use customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(13921L). But if you have serveral environments for Jira (dev, test, prod ) then it is better to reference your field by Name

customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("fieldName"). And if you use getCustomFieldObjectByName it must be the field name not the field Id. Because in each of the environments there is a chance that your field will have different ids.

[Cody Crandall]

Isn't getCustomFieldObjectByName deprecated? What would be the best solution moving forward if so?

[Alexey Matveev]

You can use getCustomObjectsByName. But you would need to iterate over the List.

Because of the strange decision to have multiple fields with the same name, we need to work with a List.
