Automatically Increment Custom Field on Transition

Michael Swansegar

Greetings.  I have looked around and found pieces of code but no real solution.  I don't care if it is scriptrunner or not but I am open to suggestions.

In the workflow I want to add a post function to a few of the transitions that go to a number custom field and increase it by 1.  So if it was blank before it becomes 1.  if it is 3 it becomes 4.

 

This seems rather simple but I am hitting my head on the wall of what to do.  I am on JIRA 7.6 and ScriptRunner 5.5.2 .  Again, open to suggestions.

That was outdated, this is actual working code with code comments!

 

 

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue;

//Update "Churn Number" to the name of your custom field.
String customFieldName = "Churn Number";
DefaultIssueChangeHolder changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder();
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();


//Update "Churn Number" to the name of your custom field.
CustomField cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Churn Number");

//NOTES: If the current value is 0 use 0 not null. If it is a real number use the real number.
def currValue = (Double)cf.getValue(issue) ?: 0
def newValue = currValue+1;
cf.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(currValue,newValue), changeHolder);
