How can I create a new property to an object?

Rafael Costa_o9pc4y

I would like add a property called "owner" to some groups. Is it possible?

I think there are 3 choices.

I'm most familiar with OfBizPropertyUtils: that stores values in propertyentry and propertytext tables (at least for jira):

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.core.ofbiz.util.OFBizPropertyUtils
import groovy.json.JsonBuilder
import groovy.json.JsonSlurper

def GROUP_EDITOR_PROPERTY = 'com.acme.jira.group-editor'
def properties = OFBizPropertyUtils.getCachingPropertySet(GROUP_EDITOR_PROPERTY, 1)
def group = ComponentAccessor.groupManager.getGroup('bamboo-users')

if (properties.exists(group.name)) {
def editorsJson = properties.getText(group.name)
def editorUserNames = new JsonSlurper().parseText(editorsJson)
return editorUserNames.collect { ComponentAccessor.userManager.getUserByName(it as String) }
} else {
def editor = ComponentAccessor.userManager.getUserByName('editorName')
def editorJson = new JsonBuilder([editor]).toString()
    properties.setText(group.name, editorJson)
}

 

But I think the JsonEntityPropertyManager may also do the trick but I haven't tried to use it with custom entities or properties. This would store data in entiry_property

And finally, there is the CrowdService that stores data in cwd_group_attributes

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def GROUP_EDITOR_PROPERTY = 'com.acme.jira.group-editor'
def cs = ComponentAccessor.crowdService

def group = cs.getGroupWithAttributes('bamboo-users')

cs.setGroupAttribute(group, GROUP_EDITOR_PROPERTY, 'editorName')
//reload the group
group = cs.getGroupWithAttributes(group.name)
group.getValue(GROUP_EDITOR_PROPERTY)
