Get the Details of the Issue that Triggered the Script Post-Function

Thanks for answering Nic. Is there a way to print them locally in the server so they can be used by the script (I forgot to mention that the script is a bash script)?

If you're calling a bash script, then the call to it is some form of "exec" statement, in which you can include parameters. 

Let's say you had a bash script that simply said

echo $1

Then the code calling it in your post-function can say something like

exec ("/data/scripts/myjirascript.sh " + issue.getSummary() )

and you'll get the issue summary dumped out to the log.

Hello Nic,

To test, I created a script called myscript.sh with the following contents:

echo $1 > /path/to/myscript.log

I created this post-function:

def sout = new StringBuffer(), serr = new StringBuffer()
def proc = '/path/to/myscript.sh + issue.getKey()'.execute()

proc.consumeProcessOutput(sout, serr)
proc.waitForOrKill(1000)
println sout

During the desired transition, the log file is created but there's nothing written to it. I also tried this one:

def sout = new StringBuffer(), serr = new StringBuffer()
def command = 'sh /path/to/myscript.sh' + issue.getKey()
def proc = command.execute()

proc.consumeProcessOutput(sout, serr)
proc.waitForOrKill(1000)
println sout

But it's worse as it doesn't create the log file at all.

I checked the Jira logs and all the issue details and fields are there instead of just the issue key.

Any hints where I went wrong? Sorry for the questions as I have no prior experience with groovy scripts. Thank you.

Well, no, it won't.  Look at the command you are executing - let's say you have an issue ABC-123, your command will say

sh ./path/to/myscript.shABC-123

What a stupid mistake :( It's working now. Thanks for the help Nic!
