Create Issue in project depending on custom field (ScriptRunner)

Simon Kegel //SEIBERT/MEDIA

Hey there,

I want to create a scripted post function which creates issues in project X. Project is depending on a custom field "customer" on the transition - screen.

Has anyone experience with this and / or could help me with this?

This is the code a colleague hand me over but it doesn't work right:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.link.IssueLink
import com.atlassian.jira.util.ImportUtils
import com.opensymphony.workflow.WorkflowContext
import org.apache.log4j.Category

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.util.UserManager
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.CrowdService
import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueManager
import com.atlassian.jira.bc.issue.IssueService;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueInputParameters

log = Category.getInstance("com.onresolve.jira.groovy.DelegateIssue")
log.error("Processing: " + issue.key);

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager();
IssueManager issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();
IssueService issueService = ComponentAccessor.getIssueService();

Object readLocalCustomField(issue, String fieldName) { // Read by NAME
	CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager();
	def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue).find {it.name == fieldName}
	return cf.getValue(issue)  //return issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf)
}

def project = readLocalCustomField(issue, "customer")
log.error("Customer: " + project);

issueMgr = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueManager()
projectMgr = ComponentManager.getInstance().getProjectManager()
 
String currentUserName = ((WorkflowContext) transientVars.get("context")).getCaller();
UserManager userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager();
ApplicationUser currentApplicationUserObj = userManager.getUserByName(currentUserName);
User currentUserObj = currentApplicationUserObj.getDirectoryUser();

//User currentUserObj = CrowdService.getUser(currentUserName);
 
def wasIndexing = ImportUtils.indexIssues
ImportUtils.indexIssues = true

IssueInputParameters issueInputParameters = issueService.newIssueInputParameters();

// Regular Fields
issueInputParameters.setProjectId(project.id);
issueInputParameters.setIssueTypeId(issue.getIssueTypeId());
issueInputParameters.setSummary(issue.summary);
issueInputParameters.setReporterId(issue.getReporterId());
issueInputParameters.setDescription(issue.description);
 	
// Custom Fields
def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue).find {it.name == "foo"};
issueInputParameters.addCustomFieldValue(customField.getIdAsLong(), "bar");


IssueService.CreateValidationResult result = issueService.validateCreate(currentUserObj, issueInputParameters);
if(!result.isValid()) {
    log.error("could not create issue: " +  result.getErrorCollection());
}

newissue = issueService.create(currentUserObj, result).getIssue()

// get the current list of outwards Blocks on links to get the sequence number
linkMgr = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueLinkManager()
def sequence = 0
for (IssueLink link in linkMgr.getInwardLinks(issue.id)) {
    if ("Blocks" == link.issueLinkType.name) {
        sequence++;
    }
}
 
linkMgr = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueLinkManager()
// TODO: Should check that 10000 is always the link id for Blocks
linkMgr.createIssueLink (newissue.id, issue.id, 10000, sequence, currentUserObj)
ImportUtils.indexIssues = wasIndexing

 

Any idea?  
I'm grateful for any hint.

I can't help with the scripting problem, but, I can suggest a non-programming alternative:

Use the Create Issue post function from Create on Transition for JIRA. Then use %original_customer% substitution variable in the project field.
