Field behaviour to validate reporter is in specific group

[Guy LaRochelle]

Hello

I'm trying to create a field validation using behaviour, that I would like to run whenever someone changes the reporter of an issue (during creation or elsewhere in edit mode).

Basically, we need to make sure that the Reporter always belongs to a specific group.

I have tried something like the following, but without success.

//Required Imports
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

def groupManager = ComponentAccessor.getGroupManager()

// Get a pointer to the reporter field and get user
def ReporterField = getFieldById("reporter")
def ReporterValue = ReporterField.value as ApplicationUser

if(groupManager.isUserInGroup(ReporterValue, 'ReportersGroup')){
   ReporterField.setError("Reporter must be in Reporters group.")
   ReporterField.setFormValue(null)
}else{
// If a valid value is entered clear any errors and accept the value
   ReporterField.clearError()
}

 Please help!

Hi Mark, 

You will need to do the filtering in your rest end point. 

So, for a case insensitive search, you will need something like 

def templateList = results.issues.collect { issue-> issueManager.getIssueObject(issue.id).getCustomFieldValue(customField) }.findAll {it != null} as List<String>

rt = [
    items : templateList?.findAll { it.toLowerCase().contains(query?.toLowerCase())}?.collect { row ->

    // rest of the script
}

That should do the trick, ping me if it doesn't :)

Kind regards, 

Thanos

Many thanks, @Thanos Batagiannis [Adaptavist]!

It works perfect!

As i noticed, for all time that i work with scriptrunner plugin, many useful things just not described in documentation, like this for example or for setFormValue have examples only for selectlists and textfields and for dates, userpickers, grouppickers need some R&D actions from users.

In my opinion behaviours very poorly documented, I am using Idea and see so many methods in behaviour api, which are not described. It will be great to do JavaDoc for them.

So i have one question.

Do Adapatavist have plans on improving documentation?

Hi Mark,

Glad that we made it work.

I hear you and you are right. The thing is that ScriptRunner abilities are endless and no kind of 'traditional' documentation can cover all the cases. 

So right now we are working into 2 major areas 

The first one is to improve our "traditional" documentation - in progress

The second one is a way to share scripts with the public in a better way than just examples in the documentation - in progress

Regarding the select list conversion issue itself, we are also working in a solution that will make it much more easier and more flexible. 

Kind regards and thanks a lot for the feedback,

Thanos

Hello @Mark Markov  and @Thanos Batagiannis [Adaptavist] 

I need to implement something like this:

I want to create a select list field for a particular project with options which appear on screen as:

<value of a custom field(any other custom field) of an issue><space><Value of summary field of the same issue>

 and the no. of options should be same as the no. of issues in that particular project.

Could you please help.

Thanks and Regards,

Swapnil Srivastav.
