How to get issue id in javascript using web-resource module

Dheeraj Kumar Aggarwal

I am trying the following way, but failed :

<web-resource key="view-issue-page-web-resources" name="Web Resources">

<resource type="download" name="viewIssue.js" location="includes/js/viewIssue.js">

<param name="issueId" value="${issue.id}"/>

</resource>

<context>jira.view.issue</context>

</web-resource>

AJS.params.issueId is returning undefined.

How can I get the issue id in the js file?

I think you already know that you can get the project key using

pkey = AJS.$("#key-val").text()

If the key is not sufficient you can the use Ajax to get the rest about the issue (Jira 5 required)

function getIssueByKey(pkey)
{
var result = null;
     AJS.$.ajax({
        url: "/rest/api/2.0/issue/"+pkey,
        type: 'get',
        dataType: 'json',
        async: false,
        success: function(data) {
            result = data
        } 
     });
     return result;
}

id = getIssueByKey(pkey).id

But honestly right now i also don't know how to do that easier or for Jira 4, If there is time during the holiday i will look at that closer
