Plugin access to Jira Configuration Properties

[Jason Jason]

Is there an easy way to access Jira Configuration Properties from my plugins like the '<tt>jira.projectkey.pattern' property?
</tt>

Well after testing this one, the following works (I am using Dependency injection to get an instance of ApplicationProperties)

this.applicationProperties.asMap().get("jira.projectkey.pattern") that will return what I am looking for.

Though I tried

this.applicationProperties.getString("jira.projectkey.pattern") and got a null. go figure.

I was also unable to get what I wanted from the PropertiesManager.

Use PropertySet to do it.

PropertySet propertySet = PropertiesManager.getInstance().getPropertySet();
String value = propertySet.getString(PROPRTY_KEY);

That's good to know. Thanks Jason

FYI, PropertiesManager.getInstance is deprecated

The JavaDoc recommends either to use Dependancy Injection or ComponentManager.getComponent(PropertiesManager.class)

Well looks like I asked too soon,

You can get ApplicationProperties from the ComponetManager.

ComponentManager.getInstance().getApplicationProperties().getString("jira.projectkey.pattern");

This looks like it will work

oh yes, for the properties in jira application properties, use ApplicationProperties.
