Scriptrunner listener watcher script

[Jacob Francois]

I hope this is an easy one - I am testing out my script ( I know I will have to add an event issue when I finalize my script I am just testing with one issue for now) 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.IssueEventBundle
import com.atlassian.jira.event.AbstractEvent
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager

IssueManager im = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
MutableIssue issue = im.getIssueObject("MH-5548")

def watcherManager = ComponentAccessor.getWatcherManager()
def userUtil = ComponentAccessor.userUtil
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10625")
def system = cField.getValue(issue)

if(system == "Looker (BI)") {
userUtil.getAllUsersInGroupNames(['BI']).each { user ->
watcherManager.startWatching(user, issue)
}

} else {
return "hello"
}

For some reason when I test the value I get null. When I return system I get [Looker (BI)] which I'm assuming it is returning a value within a list. 

I'm not sure what I am doing wrong here. 

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

I think it's going wrong in this block:

def system = cField.getValue(issue)

if(system == "Looker (BI)") {
userUtil.getAllUsersInGroupNames(['BI']).each { user ->
watcherManager.startWatching(user, issue)
}

The first line there is fine, but what ends up in "system" is probably not what you think iti is.  The type of field determines what object you get back from that line, and because Groovy is weakly typed, it's not complaining when you get something you are not expecting.

For example, ff the field is a multi-select, then you're going to get a list of options back, if it's a single-select, then either an option or a singleton list with one option in it.  You'll only get "Looker (BI)" from it as a string if the field is text, and even then, it's not a good idea to compare strings with ==, you should use string1.equals(string2)

So, back to the start.  What type of field is the custom field you are reading?

This is a single select field 

[Mike Schultz]

This works in my instance with a Select List (Single Choice) field.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.IssueEventBundle
import com.atlassian.jira.event.AbstractEvent
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager
import com.atlassian.jira.security.groups.GroupManager

IssueManager im = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
GroupManager gm = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()
MutableIssue issue = im.getIssueObject("TEST-1234")

def watcherManager = ComponentAccessor.getWatcherManager()
def userUtil = ComponentAccessor.userUtil
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_13126")
def system = cField.getValue(issue)

log.warn(system)

if(system.toString() == "High") {
gm.getUsersInGroup('jira-administrators').each { user ->
watcherManager.startWatching(user, issue)
}

} else {
return "hello"
}

@Mike Schultz - I just realize my field is a multi select field. Any thoughts ? 

[Mike Schultz]

This should work then. Use log.info(system) to get the value before the block to confirm. In my case, it's [Entity One]

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.IssueEventBundle
import com.atlassian.jira.event.AbstractEvent
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager
import com.atlassian.jira.security.groups.GroupManager

IssueManager im = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
GroupManager gm = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()
MutableIssue issue = im.getIssueObject("TEST-1234")

def watcherManager = ComponentAccessor.getWatcherManager()
def userUtil = ComponentAccessor.userUtil
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_55522")
def system = cField.getValue(issue)

log.warn(system)


if(system.toString().equals("[Entity One]")) {
gm.getUsersInGroup('jira-administrators').each { user ->
watcherManager.startWatching(user, issue)
}

} else {
return "hello"
}

@Mike Schultz - This doesn't work. when I add more values it gives me a null. 

[Mike Schultz]

if(system.toString().contains("Entity One")) {

[Mike Schultz]

Try this and let me know.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.IssueEventBundle
import com.atlassian.jira.event.AbstractEvent
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager
import com.atlassian.jira.security.groups.GroupManager

IssueManager im = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
GroupManager gm = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()
MutableIssue issue = im.getIssueObject("MH-5548")

def watcherManager = ComponentAccessor.getWatcherManager()
def userUtil = ComponentAccessor.userUtil
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10625")
def system = cField.getValue(issue)

if(system.toString() == "[Looker (BI)]") {
gm.getUsersInGroup('BI').each { user ->
watcherManager.startWatching(user, issue)
}

} else {
return "hello"
}

[Jacob Francois]

Still doesn't work. I've tried using toString() in different places and it never worked. @Mike Schultz

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist- 

[Mike Schultz]

@Jacob Francois If you add a logging statement within the if block, does it trigger?

if so, you may need to apply the changes to the issue. With something like: 

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.UpdateIssueRequest
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption

def AuthContext=ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext()

updateIssueRequest = UpdateIssueRequest.builder().eventDispatchOption(EventDispatchOption.DO_NOT_DISPATCH).sendMail(false).build()

issueManager.updateIssue(AuthContext.getLoggedInUser(),
mutableIssue,
updateIssueRequest)

[Jacob Francois]

@Mike Schultz when I run the code I get a null return(or hello). I don't think the issue is with what is inside the if or else statement. the problem is that system == "looker (bi) goes to else when I know it is true. 

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Ok, as I mentioned, a single-select list won't hold a string, they hold an option.

To compare an option with a string, you probably want the name of the option, not the whole option object.

[Jacob Francois]

Any thoughts on how to do that @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- - also the field is a multi select.
