Set assignee to some specific user in post function script

[Georgiy Senenkov]

Hello,

I use JIRA 5.0 and I need to set assignee to particular user when issue is resolved in specific project. I cannot use existing post functions to set assignee because workflow is not unique and used for other projects. I think post function script should serve very well for this purpose. I found an example how to set user to specific one at

https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/44757/groovy-issue-assignment-is-not-creating-an-active-link-on-the-name

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.CommentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.util.ImportUtils
import com.atlassian.jira.user.util.DefaultUserManager
import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User

MutableIssue issue = issue

UserManager userManager = UserManager.getInstance();
 
User usera = userManager.getUser('my_user_name');
 
issue.setAssignee(usera);

but it does not work for JIRA5.0 and returns the following error

Script9.groovy: 20: unable to resolve class UserManager
@ line 20, column 13.
UserManager userManager = UserManager.getInstance()
^

1 error

I guess getInstance() method does not exist in JIRA5.0.

Could you please advise what method I can use to set user to particular one?

Thanky you in advance.

Regards, Georgiy

Try this

ComponentManager.getUserUtil.getUser('ngs')

[Georgiy Senenkov]

I tried

User usera = ComponentManager.getUserUtil.getUser('ngs')

but it returned error

Try

ComponentManager.getInstance().getUserUtil.getUser('ngs')

[Mizan]

Hmm syntax errors . i am sorry , use the below code

ComponentManager.getInstance().getUserUtil().getUser('ngs')

[Jobin Kuruvilla [Adaptavist]]

Are you sure you modified the script? The error seems to suggest the old code?

[Georgiy Senenkov]

the same error :(

i also used simplier view as

componentManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()
userUtil= componentManager.getUserUtil()
usera = userUtil.getUser('ngs')

[Georgiy Senenkov]

Yes, that's works!!!! :) Thank you very much!!!

[Mizan]

WC .,... :)

For the project try the below code , even apply some logging to check whether you get the project object

Project project=ComponentManager.getInstance().getProjectManager().getProjectObj(issue.getProjectObject().getId())

[Georgiy Senenkov]

I used

project=ComponentManager.getInstance().getProjectManager().getProjectObj(issue.getProjectObject().getId())

"Project" returned error that class is unknown. I added print

System.out.println("Project is:" +project);

and it returns "Project is:Project: MYPROJECT"

so, now i need to parse the string to get the project name.

I guess "split" can be used.

[Mizan]

You are getting the project object , try

System.out.println("Project is:" +project.getName());

[Georgiy Senenkov]

That's what I was looking for! Thank you very much!

[Amir Vegdani]

Hi Georgiy, Can you please advise what is the final script that you are using. Thanks

[Georgiy Senenkov]

Could you please point how I can read project from the issue? as I need to set assignee to particular user only in specific project.

Thank you.

Try importing below interface in your script

com.atlassian.jira.user.util.UserManager

[Georgiy Senenkov]

Thank you! It helped to resolve the error mentioned in the mail above, but now I get another error

which I guess should not appear. Do you know what might be wrong, please?

Try the below code

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.CommentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.util.ImportUtils
import com.atlassian.jira.user.util.UserManager
import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User
 
MutableIssue issue = issue
 
User usera = UserManager.getUser('my_user_name');
  
issue.setAssignee(usera);

[Mizan]

I guess you are not using quotes

Try this

User usera = UserManager.getUser('ngs'); OR

User usera = UserManager.getUserObject('ngs');

[Georgiy Senenkov]

It didn't help. The error is still there :(

[Georgiy Senenkov]

actually I used quotes. My line was exactly the same as suggested

User usera = UserManager.getUser('ngs');

[Jobin Kuruvilla [Adaptavist]]

getUser is not static

[Georgiy Senenkov]

neither

User usera = UserManager.getUser('ngs');

NOR

User usera = UserManager.getUserObject('ngs');

worked.
