Pre-Hook for Comits to have JIRA IDs when branch name contains JIRA ID as well

Question

Hey Guys,

I have tried to implement pre-hook by Scriptrunner in bitbucket - "Require commits to be associated with a JIRA issue" .

Goal is to achieve that every commit before pushing will contain the JIRA ID

Problem - In the name of branches I use related JIRA Ticket ID, by the conditon in this defined pre-hook"The issue can either be mentioned in the commit message, or be present in the branch name"

I tried using conditions but so far I wasn't able to fix this, could anyone help me in this please?

You can use the Better Commit Policy for Bitbucket app for these type of use cases. (It is an app that adapts the Better Commit Policy for Jira app to Bitbucket.)

It can verify commit messages for issue keys, verify branch names for issue keys, even do that selectively with scope limiting.

One of the best things is that it will suggest you the most likely issue keys you want to enter like this:

remote: ========================================================================
remote:                                REJECTED!
remote: ========================================================================
remote: 1.1 COMMIT [6ecb44a] on [master] Exactly one issue key must be mentioned in the commit message "Guard against the NullPointerException"
remote: ========================================================================
remote: Did you mean one of these issues?
remote: [FOO-82] Crash when submitting the form using Safari
remote: [FOO-27] Keyboard shortcuts
remote: [FOO-11] As a user, I want to choose my own language for the app
remote: ========================================================================

So you can make it very convenient for the developer.

Hi Michal,

The condition block for a pre-defined Pre-Hook such as "Require commits to be associated with a JIRA issue", is used to determine which changes the hook applies to.

I therefore suggest you create a Custom Pre-Hook.

In order to create a Custom Pre-Hook for your needs, please use the Custom Pre-Hook functionality, outlined in the docs here: https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/bitbucket/PreReceiveHooks.html#_custom_pre_receive_hooks

You then should be able to add your code above to the inline script field of the Custom Pre-Hook.

However, I think you want to swap the

true

and

false

statements around, as false blocks the push and true allows it.

See the documentation for details.

Please let me know if this resolves your issue?

I am also going to see if we can improve the built in "Require commits to be associated with a JIRA issue" pre-hook for a future release of ScriptRunner.

Kind regards,
