Scriptrunner listener last changed comment

[Sabrina F_]

Hi everyone!

I am looking for a possibility to get the latest changed comment within an issue. I know that I can iterate through all comments and get the latest through the timestamp, but is there another possibilty, as I don't want to loose performance?

TIA!!

Hi @Sabrina F_ ,

To get the last comment of an issue : 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def commentManager = ComponentAccessor.getCommentManager()
def lastComment = commentManager.getLastComment(issue)

To get the last updated comment of an issue : 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def commentManager = ComponentAccessor.getCommentManager()

def comments = commentManager.getComments(issue).sort { it.getUpdated() }
def lastUpdatedComment = comments.last()

To get the comment body : 

String body = comment.getBody()

I am afraid that if you need the last updated comment, you need to sort at some point. 

Hope that helps.

And then, of course, restrict it to the corresponding comment-events for your use-case. If possible also restrict it to the projects to avoid unnessessary executions. Then your performance should be fine.

Thumbs up for thinking of performance, not everyone does!
