Script to get the max/larger sprint end date or sprint value

Alok Kumar

Hi,

I have the script which calculates the maximum/larger date from linked issues. However it is not working for Sprint filed. I want to create a scripted field which will display the larger end date from story which is linked within an epic. below is my script:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat

//Check that current issue is an Epic

if(issue.issueType.name == "Epic")

{

    log.warn("found an Epic")

    //Initialize appropriate managers

    def linkManager = ComponentAccessor.issueLinkManager

    def cfm = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager

    //Get the EpicPlannedCompletion field and initialize a list to hold the date values

    def EpicPlannedCompletionField = cfm.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Sprint")

    def EpicPlannedCompletionDates = [] as List<Date>

    //Loop through all of New Feature's epics and collect their date objects

    linkManager.getOutwardLinks(issue.id).each{

        if(it.issueLinkType.name == "Issues in epic")

        {

            def epicIssue = it.destinationObject

            if(epicIssue.issueType.name == "Story"){

            EpicPlannedCompletionDates.add(epicIssue.getCustomFieldValue(EpicPlannedCompletionField) as Date)

            log.warn("added a date")}

        }

    }

    if (EpicPlannedCompletionDates.size()==0){

        return null

        }

   

    //Initialize min and max

    def minDate = EpicPlannedCompletionDates[0] as Date

    def maxDate = EpicPlannedCompletionDates[0] as Date

    log.warn("piching the first date " + minDate)

    //Find actual min and max Dates

    for(int i = 1; i < EpicPlannedCompletionDates.size(); i++)

    {

    log.warn("Iteration "+i)

        def currentDate = EpicPlannedCompletionDates[i]

        if (currentDate!=null && minDate != null) {

            if(currentDate.before(minDate))

            {

                minDate = currentDate

            }

                if(currentDate.after(maxDate) && maxDate!= null)

                {

                maxDate = currentDate

            }

        }

        else { //Moving "currentDate" into "minDate" and "maxDate" as soon as currentdate is no null

            minDate = currentDate

            maxDate = currentDate

            }

    }

//If I was unable to find any dates associated with the epic

if(minDate == null || maxDate ==null){

    return null

}   

return maxDate    

}

else //Return null if issue is not an Epic

{

    return null

}

Hi Alok

I reviewed your script and I think I understand what you are trying to do. 

But there are some mistakes/improvements:

1) The Sprint custom field can't return a date. It will return an array of Sprint objects. You'll have to extract the date from the last or current sprint.

2) There is a better way to deal with issue in epic using @JiraAgileBean notation and the EpicLinkManager

3) Scripts are lot cleaner if you don't do large if/else blocks only to return null on the else block.. Instead, just return null early when you find an appropriate condition.

4) Leverage Groovy collection extensions to filter, sort and get max values

 

Here is what the corrected script looks like:

import com.atlassian.greenhopper.manager.issuelink.EpicLinkManager
import com.atlassian.greenhopper.service.sprint.Sprint
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.customisers.JiraAgileBean
import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.customisers.WithPlugin

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat
@WithPlugin("com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira") agilePlugin

//Check that current issue is an Epic
if (issue.issueType.name != "Epic") return null

log.warn("found an Epic")

//Initialize appropriate managers
def cfm = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
@JiraAgileBean EpicLinkManager epicLinkManager

def sprintCf = cfm.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Sprint")

def storiesInEpicWithSprints  = epicLinkManager.getIssuesInEpic(issue).findAll{
    it.issueType.name == 'Story' && it.getCustomFieldValue(sprintCf)
}

if(!storiesInEpicWithSprints) {
    log.warn "there are no stories in the epic, or none of them are associated with Sprint(s)"
    return null
} 

log.info "Epic has stories with sprints: $storiesInEpicWithSprints"
def storyWithMaxDate = storiesInEpicWithSprints.max{
    def sprints = it.getCustomFieldValue(sprintCf) as List<Sprint>
return sprints.last().endDate //return the endDate of the sprint, the max will find the last one
}
log.info "The story with latest sprint end date is: $storyWithMaxDate.key"
//now we have the story, lets extract the sprints
def sprints = storyWithMaxDate.getCustomFieldValue(sprintCf) as List<Sprint> //sprints stores an array even if there is only 1 sprint
//return the date the last sprint(current) in the array
sprints.last().endDate
