JIRA.Forms.createCreateIssueForm works - but how can I open the edit issue dialog?

[Florian Bauer]

by using the following js code I am able to open the create Issue dialog:

JIRA.Forms.createCreateIssueForm({parentIssueId:null,pid:null,issueType:null}).asDialog({
			  trigger: document.createElement("a"), 
			  id: "create-issue-dialog",
			  windowTitle: AJS.I18n.getText('admin.issue.operations.create')
			}).show();

my questions are:

1. where can I find documentation to this JS stuff?
2. how can I set a field value (e.g. for a custom field)
3. how can I open the edit Issue dialog?

Cheers,

Florian

Hey Florian,

Take a look at the QuickEditPlugin. I learned how to use it to open some dialogs and it seems to be possible to open the edit issue one too. 

Here is how I open some of them:

For "create issue dialog":

JIRA.Forms
  .createCreateIssueForm({pid: projectId})
  .asDialog({windowTitle: 'Create Issue'})
  .show();
 
// OR
 
var createCreateIssueForm = require('quick-edit/form/factory/create-issue');
createCreateIssueForm({pid: projectId})
  .asDialog({windowTitle: 'Create Issue'})
  .show();

For "create subtask" dialog:

JIRA.Forms
  .createSubtaskForm({parentIssueId: parentIssueId})
  .asDialog({windowTitle: 'Create Subtask'})
  .show();
 
// OR
 
var createSubtaskForm = require('quick-edit/form/factory/create-subtask');
createSubtaskForm({parentIssueId: parentIssueId})
  .asDialog({windowTitle: 'Create Issue'})
  .show();

I hope it helps!

or is there any other official way to open standard dialogs?
