Coding first Listener Not firing.

[CJ_Marchand]

Hi everyone.

I built a Behavior that is working but am not having luck with Listener.

The listener does not seem to be firing.

I need it to fire on a field changed event. 

I added the "Issue create" Event to see if I could get anything but am not having any luck.   

This is my code for now.

I have stripped it code down for testing.  Just want to see the event fire.

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue                       ;

import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours       ;

import groovy.transform.BaseScript                          ;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueFieldConstants         ;

@BaseScript FieldBehaviours fieldBehaviours                 ;

try {

     getFieldById('customfield_18801').setFormValue( "Hello txtField" ) ;    

    getFieldById('description').setFormValue( "Hello from Listener" ) ;

} catch(Exception e1) {

    getFieldById('customfield_18801').setFormValue( e1.getMessage() ) ;

}

pic of my Listener setup is included.

Below is the code I'm using 

import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

def Issue issue = issue

def User user = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager().getUserByName("username").getDirectoryUser()
def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.issueLinkManager

def linkCollection = issueLinkManager.getLinkCollection(issue, user)

if (linkCollection && linkCollection.allIssues) {
def CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_xxxx")
def linkedIssue = linkCollection.allIssues.first()
return linkedIssue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
}

I get the error at the underlined code.

Hi Ashish,

Were you able to figure it out or do you still need help with this issue?

Hi Joshua,

Can you please help me on this.

Thanks,
Ash.

Hi Ash,

You could create a scripted field that gets values from issues  that are linked. For example, if Parent issue A was of type "Bug", the code for your scripted field would look like this:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
def issueLinkManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueLinkManager()
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
if (issue.issueType.name == "Bug") {
    issueLinkManager.getOutwardLinks(issue.id).first() { issueLink -> // go through all issues linked off of the Story
        def linkedIssue = issueLink.getDestinationObject()
        def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("customfield_xxxx")
        return linkedIssue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
    }
}

Hi Joshua,

Thanks for your code, I see cannot find matching method error at line 5 as shown

[Joshua Yamdogo @ Adaptavist]

Hi Ash,

Sorry about that, that script contained a small error.

However, I think that script will not work for you anyway. Could you clarify the relationship between Issue A and Issue B? Is this correct:

• Issue A is the parent issue
• Issue B is a sub-task of Issue A

In that case, a script like this should work:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def subTasks = issue.getSubTaskObjects()
def childCfValue
if (subTasks) {
    issue.getSubTaskObjects().each { subtask -> // go through sub-task issues
        def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_12220")
        childCfValue = subtask.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
    }
}
return childCfValue

[Ash]

Issue A is a Parent issue and Issue B is a linked issue to the parent issues.

Thank you,  I will try this code and update you.

Hi Joshua

Can I get the script for linked issues? I am trying to get it for a linked issue which should have a custom text field filled. If it is empty, my validator should through error. 

Above script is working for subtasks. I tried to change it for linked issues but in vain, the linked issues script is not working, throwing error as shown in above screenshot of Ash
