Getting binary data from attachment files in Jira using Java.

[Prasanna Suman]

Hi,

Do you guys know how to read the actual data from an attachment file while using Java api?

And, for Jira 6.2

String filePath = PathUtils.joinPaths(ComponentAccessor.getAttachmentPathManager().getDefaultAttachmentPath(), issue.getProjectObject().getKey(), issue.getKey(), attachment.getId().toString());
					File file = new File(filePath);
					if (file.exists()) {
						// attachments file exists...
					}

Sometimes this can not work due project renaming issues;

I've been using this way to retrieve the attatchment File object when needed. Maybe this method can help you too;

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.attachment.FileSystemAttachmentDirectoryAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

File getAttatchmentFile(Issue issue,String attatchmentId){
    return ComponentAccessor.getComponent(FileSystemAttachmentDirectoryAccessor.class).getAttachmentDirectory(issue).listFiles().find({
        File it->
         it.getName().equals(attatchmentId)
    });
}

Can you please give more context - is this an issue attachment or some other attachment and what you intend to to with this data ?
