Create project by scriptrunner

[Emanuel Paquetelima]

Hello ,
I would like to be able to create jira projects with existing templates through a script.
Procedure:
1. Through the transition of a card on the board, you must create a project.
2. Projects must be created using pre-created templates in JIra.
3. For example, from a card with the id, name, type of project and scrum master the project must be created.
4. There must be a condition to compare if the card has a waterfall type field, for example, a project must be created through the waterfall template.
5. If it is Agile, a project must be created using the Agile template.

Can you help me with this?
Thank in advance,
BR

Hi @Emanuel Paquetelima I guess I have the script you need:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.util.thread.JiraThreadLocalUtils
import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.canned.jira.admin.CopyProject
import org.apache.log4j.Logger
import org.apache.log4j.Level
def log = Logger.getLogger(getClass())
log.setLevel(Level.DEBUG)

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def projectManager = ComponentAccessor.getProjectManager()


//change this to your template source project
def srcProjectKey = 'SPK' // source project key
def getSrcProjectObject = projectManager.getProjectByCurrentKey(srcProjectKey)

def targetKey = "SP" // you must adjust for your purpose
def targetProjectName = "Some project" // you must adjust for your purpose

if(getSrcProjectObject && targetKey && targetProjectName) {


//You have to wrap the thread in JiraThreadLocalUtils in Jira 8 or no issues will be cloned
Thread executorThread = new Thread(JiraThreadLocalUtils.wrap {
def copyProject = new CopyProject()
def inputs = [
(CopyProject.FIELD_SOURCE_PROJECT) : srcProjectKey,
(CopyProject.FIELD_TARGET_PROJECT) : targetKey,
(CopyProject.FIELD_TARGET_PROJECT_NAME) : targetProjectName,
(CopyProject.FIELD_COPY_VERSIONS) : true,
(CopyProject.FIELD_COPY_COMPONENTS) : true,
(CopyProject.FIELD_COPY_ISSUES) : true,
(CopyProject.FIELD_COPY_DASH_AND_FILTERS): false,
//(CopyProject.FIELD_ORDER_BY) : "Rank", <-- no longer a valid option so I am commenting this out
]

def errorCollection = copyProject.doValidate(inputs, false)
if (errorCollection.hasAnyErrors()) {
log.warn("Couldn't create project: $errorCollection")
} else {
def util = ComponentAccessor.getUserUtil()
def adminsGroup = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager().getGroup("jira-administrators")
assert adminsGroup // must have jira-administrators group defined
def admins = util.getAllUsersInGroups([adminsGroup])
assert admins // must have at least one admin

ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().setLoggedInUser(util.getUserByName(admins.first().name))
copyProject.doScript(inputs)
}

})

//must call start Not run or the Post functions will throw an error because it tries to access a dead thread
executorThread.start()

}else{
log.error("Cannot Clone Project as source Project, target key or target project names were Not found or Not specified")
}

this script copies also issues, versions and components from source project
