Help with script to add new Cascading Select parent and child options to multiple contexts for field

Bryan Karsh_6g3o3x

Hi there,

I know this type of question has been asked many times here, but I am stuck on my particular edge case. We have a Cascading Select field that is used throughout our company for business logic. It has over a hundred contexts. Fairly often, requests will be made to add an option (or more) to all contexts in the field. This would be a manual nightmare.

I know there is the most excellent built-in scriptrunner script for bulk updating custom fields options... and I would certainly use that if it could apply to all contexts at once. But alas, it makes me pick one at a time.

I know back in the day, the source for that script was available to look at. I know that is no longer an option. So.. looking at various examples, I started to cobble something together (see below). Right now what I have will iterate through all the contexts and list the Parent  and Child options.

What I need help with is the bit where I want to add the new options. Let's say I have:

Foo1

  Bar1

  Bar2

Foo2

  Bar3

  Bar4

 

-- and I want to add those as options to each context. I'm assuming I'd need to put it in some sort of map, and add it to the options that way. But the devil's in the details, and I am hitting a wall.

I ended up creating this -- which seems to do the job. Feel free to suggest ways it can be improved! It uses a delimited text file (projectKey#parentOption#childOption) as its source.

 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.context.IssueContextImpl;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.option.Option
import groovy.xml.MarkupBuilder

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
def optionsManager = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager()
def projectManager = ComponentAccessor.getProjectManager()

def writer = new StringWriter()
def xml = new MarkupBuilder(writer)


Long parentSequence  = 100L // used to indicate where parent option is displayed in field

Long childSequence  = 100L // use to indicate where child option is displayed in field


/*

Notes:

-- script doesn't create contexts -- still need to implement that
it works fine if contexts exist already

-- it tokenizes on '#' currently, since some options may have
commas in them
