Using ScriptRunner, how do I prevent a story from being closed when sub-tasks are open?

Jeramy

I have a script that I've added to the Close transition as a validator. 

 

Here's the script:

 

 

package Workflows.Validators

import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.util.UserMessageUtil

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

import org.apache.log4j.Logger

import org.apache.log4j.Level

import Log****.*

import Log****.Helpers.*

Logger jiraLog = Logger.getLogger(this as String)

jiraLog.setLevel(Log****Locale.logLevel)

// Get the current issue

Issue parentIssue = issue

jiraLog.debug('Source Issue: ' + parentIssue.getKey())

if (parentIssue.getSubTaskObjects().size() > 0) {

    def subTasks = parentIssue.getSubTaskObjects()

    jiraLog.debug('Associated sub-tasks: ' + subTasks)

    def allSubTasksDone = subTasks.every { it.status.name in ['Closed'] }

    jiraLog.debug(allSubTasksDone)

    if (!allSubTasksDone) {

        jiraLog.debug('Got to the part where all sub-tasks are not closed.')

        UserMessageUtil.info('Cannot close issue ' + parentIssue + ' as it has open sub-tasks')

        return false

    }else { 

        jiraLog.debug('All sub-tasks are closed.')

        return true

    }

}

if (parentIssue.getSubTaskObjects().size() == 0) {

    jiraLog.debug('No sub-tasks associated with issue: ' + parentIssue)

    return true

}

Can anyone help me figure out why the transition still set the status to Closed? When I close the issue with open sub-tasks, I get the Util message. So I know it's getting there, but the status still changes to closed.

Thank you.

Hi @Jeramy ,

If you are using Custom script validator, then you need to throw an InvalidInputException instead of returning false.

So, just change

return false

to

throw new InvalidInputException("...")
