JiraUtils.loadComponent method is no longer supported after Jira upgrades to 9.4.3

LipsaPatra

Hi Team,

With Jira upgrade to 9, JiraUtils.loadComponent method is not supported

We are currently facing the issue with JiraUtils.loadComponent method. Its no longer supported. Kindly help us with the compatible method.

Below is the code used:

import com.opensymphony.workflow.WorkflowContext;
import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowTransitionUtil;
import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowTransitionUtilImpl;
import com.atlassian.jira.util.JiraUtils;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue;
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.search.SearchProvider
import com.atlassian.jira.jql.parser.JqlQueryParser
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.search.SearchQuery

String currentUser = ((WorkflowContext) transientVars.get("context")).getCaller()
WorkflowTransitionUtil workflowTransitionUtil = (WorkflowTransitionUtil) JiraUtils.loadComponent(WorkflowTransitionUtilImpl.class)
def jqlQueryParser = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(JqlQueryParser)
def searchProvider = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(SearchProvider)
def user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getUser()
Long results = null;
CustomField parentLink = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName("Parent Link").getAt(0)
String parentKey = issue.getCustomFieldValue(parentLink)
IssueManager issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
MutableIssue parent = issueManager.getIssueByKeyIgnoreCase(parentKey)

def isDevBacklogStatus = parent.getStatus().getSimpleStatus().getName() in ['In Progress']
if (isDevBacklogStatus) {
def jqlSearch = jqlQueryParser.parseQuery("'Parent Link'= " + parentKey + " AND statusCategory not in (Done) AND key != " + issue.getKey());
def searchQuery = SearchQuery.create(jqlSearch, user)
results = searchProvider.getHitCount(searchQuery)
}
if (results == 0) {
workflowTransitionUtil.setIssue(parent)
workflowTransitionUtil.setUserkey(currentUser)
workflowTransitionUtil.setAction(21)
if (workflowTransitionUtil.validate()) {
workflowTransitionUtil.progress()
}
}

Highlighted code gives error during execution. Kindly help us with the correct method.

Waiting for a quick reply.

Thanks

Hi @LipsaPatra

Since the JiraUtils.loadComponent has been deprecated and removed in Jira 9 why not just use the ComponentAccessor to invoke the class?

So instead of using:-

WorkflowTransitionUtil workflowTransitionUtil = (WorkflowTransitionUtil) JiraUtils.loadComponent(WorkflowTransitionUtilImpl.class)

Just use:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor


def workflowTransitionUtil = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(WorkflowTransitionUtilImpl) as WorkflowTransitionUtil

I hope this helps to solve your question. :-)

Thank you and Kind regards,
Ram

Hi Ram,

Thanks for the prompt reply. However while the above codes gives null value for the workflowTransitionUtil.

However, while hovering over the .loadComponent, it suggests to use ComponentManager.loadComponent(Class, Collection)

Could you please me know how would i modify the code based on the above suggestion.

Also help us with import statement applicable.

Regards

Hi @LipsaPatra

Using the ComponentManager is not recommended, as it has been deprecated since Jira 7.11 and is no longer supported.

You need to use the ComponentAccessor.getComponent approach.

Below is a sample code for your reference:-

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowTransitionUtil

def workflowTransitionUtil = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(WorkflowTransitionUtil)
workflowTransitionUtil.setIssue(issue)

I don't seem to have any issues invoking the WorkflowTransitionUtil using the above approach.

Thank you and Kind regards,

Ram

Hi Ram,

I have used the code suggested by you :

import com.opensymphony.workflow.WorkflowContext;

import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowTransitionUtil;

import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowTransitionUtilImpl;

import com.atlassian.jira.util.JiraUtils;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;

String currentUser = ((WorkflowContext) transientVars.get("context")).getCaller()

def workflowTransitionUtil = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(WorkflowTransitionUtilImpl) as WorkflowTransitionUtil

log.info(workflowTransitionUtil)

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();

CustomField epicLink = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Epic Link');

//CustomField epicLink = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Epic Link')

MutableIssue parent = (MutableIssue) issue.getCustomFieldValue(epicLink);

if (parent != null) {

log.warn "${parent.getSummary()}"

log.warn "${parent.getStatus().getSimpleStatus().getName()}"

def isDevBacklogStatus = parent.getStatus().getSimpleStatus().getName() in ['New']

log.warn "${isDevBacklogStatus}"

log.info(parent)

if (isDevBacklogStatus) {

workflowTransitionUtil.setIssue(parent)

workflowTransitionUtil.setUserkey(currentUser)

workflowTransitionUtil.setAction(11)

if (workflowTransitionUtil.validate()) {

log.warn "inside validate"

workflowTransitionUtil.progress()

}

But still I am unable to get the desired results. I have added the piece of code entire piece of code. Let me where I am going wrong.

I am getting java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke method setIssue() on null object at Script152.run(Script152.groovy:31)

Hi @Ram Kumar Aravindakshan _Adaptavist_ @LipsaPatra

I am also getting the same error -

Script function failed on event: com.atlassian.jira.event.issue.IssueEvent, file: <inline script> java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke method setIssue() on null object

Any idea?

Regards

Hi @Ram Kumar Aravindakshan _Adaptavist_

Could you please suggest - I tried above solution and getting error

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke method setIssue() on null object at Script343.run(Script343.groovy:74)

Hi folks,

We can't use ComponentAccessor.getComponent directly here since WorkflowTransitionUtil isn't a singleton provided by Jira's component registrar. Since WorkflowTransitionUtil is mutable (setIssue(), setParams(), etc.), it couldn't possibly be a singleton.

Instead, we should use WorkflowTransitionUtilFactory's create() method to get a new instance of WorkflowTransitionUtil.

Here's an example:

import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowTransitionUtilFactory
import com.atlassian.jira.workflow.WorkflowTransitionUtil
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

WorkflowTransitionUtilFactory wfTransitionUtilFactory = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(WorkflowTransitionUtilFactory)
WorkflowTransitionUtil wfTransitionUtil = wfTransitionUtilFactory.create()

As a side note, it's bad programming practice to directly reference the implementation (that is, WorkflowTransitionUtilImpl). Instead, we should target its interface WorkflowTransitionUtil.

I hope this helps! Please drop me a reply if I can clarify anything.

Warm regards,
Ben | Jira Server/DC Support

In my case was similar and your solution work for me, thanks
