Need help with listeners on a date field which tracks changes on a different date field

Aisha M

Hi,

Can anyone please help me with how to use Script Listeners for the below scenario,

Field 1) DD

Field 2) Baseline Due Date (Date picker)

So, the field 1 must capture the dates on when the field 2 is entered and gets modified. Also FIELD 1 is not editable. It simply captures the dates when the Field 2 is modified and displays on the issue card.

Example> If Field 2 is modified today, then the Field 1 must display today s date and so on.

And, if Field 2 is NULL, then Field 1 must be NULL too

Accepted answers

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder

def cfm = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager() 
def cf = cfm.getCustomFieldObjectByName("DD")

if ((event.issue.getDueDate() != event.issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf)) && event.getChangeLog().getRelated('ChildChangeItem').find{ it.field == 'duedate'}){
def changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder()
cf.updateValue(null, event.issue, new ModifiedValue(event.issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf), event.issue.getDueDate()),changeHolder)
}

//log.error(event.issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf))

Script should sync only to one way duedate->dd, if change dd value in duedate value not changed.

B.R.

You need custom script listener at "Issue Updated" event. Your listener should contain code that checks field2 and field1 values and if field1!=field2, then update field1. If field1=field2, nothing to do
Here is an example, try something like this


import com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.AbstractIssueEventListener;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.sql.Timestamp

IssueManager issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
MutableIssue issueToUpdate = (MutableIssue) event.issue;



Timestamp issueDueDateValue = event.issue.getDueDate();

def customDateFieldID = <customfieldID>;
CustomField customDateFieldObj = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(customDateFieldID);

def issueCustomDateFieldValueObj = event.issue.getCustomFieldValue(customDateFieldObj)

// at this point now you have datecustomfield value and duedate value
// you can convert them to unique format (e.g. timestamp), than compare issueCustomDateFieldValueObj and issueDueDateValue
// and update custom field if you need. example:
// issueToUpdate.setCustomFieldValue(customDateFieldObj, <yourValueInProperFormat>);
// issueManager.updateIssue(event.getUser(), issueToUpdate, EventDispatchOption.ISSUE_UPDATED, false);

@Andrew Hi. Thank you for the comment. Will test it out and let you know

Andrew_g4chs4

You mean FIELD 2 it is not system field?

In that case use next:

def myField = cfm.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Your field name")
def valueMyField = event.issue.getCustomFieldValue(myField)

instead of

event.issue.getDueDate()

Total

def cfm = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager() 
def cf = cfm.getCustomFieldObjectByName("DD")
def myField = cfm.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Your field name")
def valueMyField = event.issue.getCustomFieldValue(myField)

if ((valueMyField != event.issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf)) && event.getChangeLog().getRelated('ChildChangeItem').find{ it.field == 'Your field name'})

log.error(event.getChangeLog().getRelated('ChildChangeItem'))// use that for find name of your field

Hi @Andrew I dunno if I m doing it wrong, but it aint working. .

Also, forgot to mention earlier, The FIELD 1 is not editing. It simply captures the dates when the Field 2 is entered/modified and displays it on the issue card.
