Setting the due date

[Irina Solarcuka]

Hi,

I'm junior in JIRA. Could somebody help to resolve the following task?

I need to preset the due date=creation date+3 days for one project.

Hi,

I think You can do it using a script in the post function JJUPIN or JPython.

Or in the screen transition in javascipt

[Irina Solarcuka]

Thanks,

As a "screen transition" do you mean transition's post function. Have you got any script example?

[Nadir MEZIANI]

Hi,

There are some transitions that have no screen, so we use some scripts in the post-transition function as JJUPIN or another scripting plugin (#{dueDate}=#{created}+3d)

With javascript , you put this script in your description field duedate

var bb = new Date();
var cc = new Date();
cc.setDate(bb.getDate()+3);
calendar.setDate(cc);
calendar.callHandler();

Hey Irina, seems like there has been a discussion on this before. You can get it to work using Behaviour Plugin. You can read more about it in here.

Thank you! A little bit more...

I've tried to run this script:

import java.sql.Timestamp

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

// initializing the priority

def BLOCKER = 1;

def CRITICAL = 2;

def MAJOR = 3;

def MINOR = 9;

def Trivial = 30;

// calender which returns the date according to the priority defined

private GregorianCalendar getDate(double roll){

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();

cal.setFirstDayOfWeek(Calendar.MONDAY);

cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY,0);

cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE,0);

cal.set(Calendar.SECOND,0);

cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND,0);

for (int x=0;x<roll;x++){

cal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);

}

return cal;

}

MutableIssue mutableIssue = (MutableIssue) issue;

def priority = mutableIssue.getPriority().getString("name");

def setDueDate = mutableIssue.getDueDate();

//only set the dueDate if the date isn't already set (i.e. if it == null).

GregorianCalendar cal;

if(priority.equals("Kritiska")){

cal = getDate(CRITICAL);

} else if(priority.equals("Augsta")){

cal = getDate(MAJOR);

} else if(priority.equals("Vidēja")){

cal = getDate(MINOR);

} else if(priority.equals("Zema")){

cal=getDate(Trivial);

}

Timestamp dueDate = new Timestamp(cal.getTimeInMillis());

mutableIssue.getPriorityObject();

mutableIssue.setDueDate(dueDate);

but in the log file I've found the following:

In the discussion link I've provided above, discussed about the similar error as well. You can scroll down a bit or try CTRL+F for "Cannot invoke method getTimeInMillis() on null object" on the link.
