How can I set the default value of an "Apwide File Field" during a transition?

[JoeBob Wauson]

I'm working on a workflow that will allow tasks to get passed down an echelon for action, but only one level at a time, giving leadership the chance to edit/respond to tasks before it goes all the way down to work centers, but I'm getting kinda stuck when it comes to attachments. I know I can copy all the attachments in the post-script, but I'd like to give users the option to edit the attachments before passing them along: enter the customfield "Apwide File Field". Currently I'm using scriptrunner to pre-fill dummy fields on the transition screen, leaving the original issue un-changed. Here's an example screen capture: 

---

I've managed to set the "Tasker Description for X" fields using Scriptrunner's Behaviors and this:

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

def indvTaskDesc = getFieldByName("Tasker Description for Individuals")

def issue = Issues.getByKey(getIssueContext().toString())

if (!indvTaskDesc.getFormValue()) {

    indvTaskDesc.setFormValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue('Tasker Description').toString())

}

---

However the Apwide Attachment Field ("Attachments for Units") is being a PITA. Below is the closest solution I've found, but it doesn't actually update the form, it updates the field in the background, so I have to go to transition the task and hit cancel, and then when I go to transition again it updates the form value. 

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.customisers.WithPlugin

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder

def attachmentManager = ComponentAccessor.getAttachmentManager()

def attachmentDirectoryAccessor = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(FileSystemAttachmentDirectoryAccessor.class)

@PluginModule

FileManager fileManager

// Load the issue you want to update

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

Issue issue = Issues.getByKey(getIssueContext().toString())

// find the target File Field to update

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

def fileField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue).find {it.name == "Attachments for Units"}

log.warn "File Field found: ${fileField}"

if (!issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileField)) {

    // check for attachments, then load them

    String fileName = ""

    List<Attachment> lastAttachments = attachmentManager.getAttachments(issue)

    if (lastAttachments.size() > 0) {

        log.warn "${lastAttachments.size()} attachments found"

        for (int i=0; i < lastAttachments.size(); i++) {

            // get next attachment

            fileName = lastAttachments[i].getFilename()

            //Attachment attachment = lastAttachments[i]

            Attachment attachment = lastAttachments.find({ attachment -> attachment.getFilename().equals(fileName) })

            log.warn "Found Attachment: ${attachment}"

            // get attachment binary file

            log.warn "Files found in issue folder: ${attachmentDirectoryAccessor.getAttachmentDirectory(issue).listFiles()}"

            def file = attachmentDirectoryAccessor.getAttachmentDirectory(issue)

                    .listFiles()

                    .find({ it-> it.getName().equals(""+attachment.id)})

            log.warn "File found: ${file}"

            if (file){

                // Size limit of file to upload (ex: 10Mo)

                long maxFileSize = 10*1000*1000;

                // upload the attachment binary file to File Field and get its unique id

                String fileId = fileManager.upload(fileName, new FileInputStream(file), maxFileSize)

                log.warn "FileId of newly updated file: ${fileId}"

                if (fileField) {

                    def changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder()

                    // update customfield's value using a String containing the file id

                    fileField.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileField), fileId), changeHolder)

                    log.warn "File field successfully updated with the new fileId"

                }

            }

        }

    }

}

Edit: I forgot to mention, but it's also only copying one attachment (the last one based on an alphanumeric scale running from 0-z). Haven't really started to deal with that yet, but any tips would be appreciated :)

Hi @JoeBob Wauson

Thanks for your question about our File Field Jira App.
You will soon get an answer from one of our File Field expert.

Have a nice day,

You can let your File Field experts know I've figured it out. I used a ScriptRunner "Custom script condition" to copy everything over to the custom fields immediately *before* the transition starts. From there I loop through the attachments adding them to fileId before finally adding it to the File Field. Code below:

---

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.customisers.WithPlugin

import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.customisers.PluginModule

@WithPlugin("com.apwide.document.file-field")

import com.apwide.file.api.FileManager;

import com.atlassian.jira.component.*;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.attachment.Attachment

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.attachment.FileSystemAttachmentDirectoryAccessor

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder

def attachmentManager = ComponentAccessor.getAttachmentManager()

def attachmentDirectoryAccessor = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(FileSystemAttachmentDirectoryAccessor.class)

@PluginModule

FileManager fileManager

// Load the issue you want to update

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

// find the target File Field to update

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

def fileField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue).find {it.name == "Attachments for Units"}

def fileField2 = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue).find {it.name == "Attachments for Individuals"}

log.warn "${issue.key}: File Fields found: ${fileField} and ${fileField2}"

def file

String fileId

def changeHolder

String fileName = ""

List<Attachment> lastAttachments = attachmentManager.getAttachments(issue)

if (lastAttachments.size() > 0) {

    log.warn "${issue.key}: ${lastAttachments.size()} attachments found"

    for (i in 0 .. lastAttachments.size()-1) {

        // get next attachment

        fileName = lastAttachments[i].getFilename()

        log.warn "${issue.key} [${i}]: lastAttachments[i].getFilename(): ${fileName}"

        //Attachment attachment = lastAttachments[i]

        Attachment attachment = lastAttachments.find({ attachment -> attachment.getFilename().equals(fileName) })

        log.warn "${issue.key} [${i}]: Found Attachment: ${attachment}"

        // get attachment binary file

        log.warn "Files found in issue folder: ${attachmentDirectoryAccessor.getAttachmentDirectory(issue).listFiles()}"

        file = attachmentDirectoryAccessor.getAttachmentDirectory(issue)

                .listFiles()

                .find({ it-> it.getName().equals(""+attachment.id)})

        log.warn "${issue.key} [${i}]: File found: ${file}"

        if (file != null){

            // Size limit of file to upload (ex: 10Mo)

            long maxFileSize = 10*1000*1000;

            // upload the attachment binary file to File Field and get its unique id

            log.warn "${issue.key} [${i}]: current status of file (${file}) and fileId (${fileId})"

            if (!fileId) {

                fileId = fileManager.upload(fileName, new FileInputStream(file), maxFileSize)

                log.warn "${issue.key} [${i}]: fileId (${fileId})"

            } else {

                fileId = fileId + "," + fileManager.upload(fileName, new FileInputStream(file), maxFileSize)

                log.warn "${issue.key} [${i}]: fileId (${fileId})"

            }

            log.warn "${issue.key} [${i}]: FileId of newly updated file: ${fileId}"

        }

    }

}

// Set first custom field

log.warn "fileField = ${issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileField)}"

if (!issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileField)) {

    changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder()

    // update customfield's value using a String containing the file id(s)

    fileField.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileField), fileId), changeHolder)

    log.warn "${issue.key}: File field successfully updated with the new fileId: ${fileId}"

}

// Set second custom field

log.warn "fileField2 = ${issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileField2)}"

if (!issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileField2)) {

    changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder()

    // update customfield's value using a String containing the file id(s)

    fileField2.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileField2), fileId), changeHolder)

    log.warn "${issue.key}: File field successfully updated with the new fileId: ${fileId}"

}
