get a group name if it contains a keyword

Hi Community,

i need to add as watchers a specific group members with a postfunction while creating an issue.

Each user has a client group with all named the same way as its ended with '-clients' .

So i need a method that it fetch the group that name ended with '-clients' and add the members as watchers in the created issue.

The contains i've added below returns only a bloean value and i need to have the name of the group 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.security.roles.ProjectRoleManager
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import org.apache.log4j.Logger
import org.apache.log4j.Level

def currentAppUser = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser().name

def groupManager = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()
def Keyword = "-administrators"
def searchgroup = groupManager.getGroupNamesForUser(currentAppUser).contains(Keyword)
//log.debug ("Test " + searchgroup)

//return searchgroup

if (searchgroup) {

def watcherManager = ComponentAccessor.getWatcherManager()

def userUtil = ComponentAccessor.userUtil

userUtil.getAllUsersInGroupNames([searchgroup]).each {user ->

watcherManager.startWatching(user, issue)

}
}
else {
log.debug ("The user is not a member of a client group" )
}

Thanks in advance.

You are using the wrong method for the filtering as .contains() are designed to return a Boolean value. The following should give you a list of group name (type String). 

def searchgroup = groupManager.getGroupNamesForUser(currentAppUser).findAll{
    it.contains(Keyword)
}

I hope this helps!

Hi @Benz Kek (Adaptavist) ,

Thanks a lot for the reply

yep i used find() method with regex to catch the group having that keyword on it then made a loop to catch all the group containing this keyword.
