Publish an event in Groovy Script

[Deleted user]

Hello,

I want to trigger one of my Script Listener programatically in the Script Console.

I think I have to "publish an event".

my research brings me to the class EventPublisher, but I don't understand how to use it...

With this class I should be able to publish an "Issue Updated" event on some Issue.

Has anyone ever tried ?

What you mean by "publish an event" if you want the script to run on issue update event then run the script on issue update event.

Excuse me I forgot to say that I want to trigger a Listener (activated with event "Issue Updated") programatically in the Script Console.

I don't think it's possible, try to get a specific issue and run the script on it from the Console:

Add this to your code-

def issue = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject("TS-93221")

I already use this technique to test my Listener, but what I would like is more complex...

I try to copy som field from an Issue to an other Issue, both of them in differents Projects and differents issueTypes.

I have a field in the target Issue like "Name of source Issue", the name who's inside is like an id in a BDD.

Example :

Source Issue with Summary = "A"

some Target Issue with Summary = "B" and field "Name of source Issue" = "A"

This Issues are linked.

My Listener copy some field from Source to Target when the Source is updated.

For example :

I have a field "Category" in both Issues, and when I update the field in the Source Issue like "Category" = "123", my Listener is fired and it's update the field in the Target Issue !

Well, this works fine, but... I want to add a new Issue in the chain !

new Target Issue with Summary = "C" and field "Name of source Issue" = "B" (remember, "B" it's our first Target)

So basically, my field "Category" it's copied in cascade :

Issue "A" -> Issue "B" -> Issue "C"

The problem is, my Listener can't copy from "B" to "C" when is fired on the "A" update...
