Groovy script modification - Clone w/ dependency, need project array

[Deborah Hansen]

Need to mofify code below so I can apply to a list / array of projectname...

Would also like to copy over custom fields - I have some of that code, but missing something:

for (CustomField cf : customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue)) {
    if (issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf)) {
        newissue.setCustomFieldValue(cf,  oneIssue.getCustomFieldValue(cf))
    }
}

Moved here - ran out of room...  :(

Does it not work? I can't really see what the question is ;-)

Custom fields I do like this:

newIssueCfs.intersect(customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue)).each {CustomField cf ->

To avoid trying to set a custom field that doesn't exist on the target issue. Not sure what happens if you do though, maybe harmless.

projectMgr.getProjectByName("${it}")

Probably better written:

ProjectList.each() {projectName

....

projectMgr.getProjectByName(projectName)

Try to avoid "it" in long loops, gets a bit confusing. Otherwise looks ok at first glance.

Hi Deborah,

I have done something very similar. Your custom field copy code is correct - I am using the exact same code. I wonder if your issue is caused by the placement of that code. I have it above the issue creation.

[Jon Sword]

Here is my linking code - this bypasses the 10002 concern

     Collection cloneIssueLinkTypes = issueLinkTypeManager.getIssueLinkTypesByName("Cloners")
     for (Iterator iterator = cloneIssueLinkTypes.iterator(); iterator.hasNext();) {
         IssueLinkType issueLinkType = (IssueLinkType) iterator.next();
         if (issueLinkType.getName() == "Cloners" ) {
             cloneIssueLinkType = issueLinkType.getId();
         }
     }
     linkMgr.createIssueLink (issue.id, newissue.id, cloneIssueLinkType, sequence, currentUserObj)

[Jon Sword]

A stripped down (and somewhat outdated) example of my code is here.

[Jon Sword]

P.S> I notice you use "newissue = issueFactory.getIssue()"

I use "newissue = issueFactory.cloneIssue(issue)"

This means that it automatically sets the reporter, description etc on creation (although you can override it). It makes for a bit less work.

[Deborah Hansen]

Thank you Jon! I think I'm running inot havoc because I have the for statement inside an project list array - a sub-loop in my loop.

[Deborah Hansen]

I have the project array functioning - - custom fields pending...
