Update numerical custom field from string array

[Peter Ellis]

Hi,

I am trying to do two things here. Firstly, I want to turn a string from an array into an numeric and then save that into a numeric custom field (Story Points). 

The script works perfectly other than the part above.

This is an example of the array,

def storyTypeTasks = 

["Summary": "Config - Verify Circuit", "Description": "Config - Verify Circuit", "Task Type": "Technical task", "Component":"Configuration Team", "Story Points": "15"],

import org.apache.log4j.Logger
import org.apache.log4j.Level

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def log = Logger.getLogger("com.bttv.MDTStoryPostFunction")
log.setLevel(Level.DEBUG)

def constantManager = ComponentAccessor.getConstantsManager()
def user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()

def issueFactory = ComponentAccessor.getIssueFactory()
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def subTaskManager = ComponentAccessor.getSubTaskManager()

// Get project Type field details
def storyTypeField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Story type")
log.debug "storyTypeField = " + storyTypeField

// Get story type for current story
Issue story = issue
def storyType = story.getCustomFieldValue(storyTypeField)
log.debug "storyType = '" + storyType + "'"

//get story points
def Storypointsfield = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Story Points")

// Find matching story type and tasks to create
def storyTypeTaskTemplate = storyTypeTasks.find{ it.key == storyType.getValue() }
log.debug "storyTypeTaskTemplate = '" + storyTypeTaskTemplate + "'"

// This story project type is templated
if(storyTypeTaskTemplate) {
log.debug "Processing template..."
log.debug "Story '" + story.summary + "' with type '" + storyType + "' has task template"
log.debug "storyTypeTaskTemplate: '" + storyTypeTaskTemplate + "'"
// Iterate thru list of tasks to create
storyTypeTaskTemplate.getValue().each {
log.debug "storyTypeTaskTemplate.each: '" + it + "'"

// Build issue
MutableIssue newTask = issueFactory.getIssue()
newTask.setSummary(it["Summary"])
newTask.setDescription(it["Description"])
newTask.setParentObject(story)
newTask.setProjectObject(story.getProjectObject())
newTask.setIssueTypeId(constantManager.getAllIssueTypeObjects().find{
it.getName() == "Sub-task"
}.id)

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

// THIS IS THE LINE THAT FAILS 

//Set Temp story Points
newTask.setCustomFieldValue("Story Points",it["Story Points"])

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

// Set component
def theComponent = ComponentAccessor.getProjectComponentManager().findByComponentName(story.getProjectObject().getId(),it["Component"])
newTask.setComponent([theComponent])

// Create task
def newTaskParams = ["issue" : newTask] as Map<String,Object>
Issue task = issueManager.createIssueObject(user, newTaskParams)

// Create subtask linkage
subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(story, task, user)
log.debug "Issue with summary ${task.summary} created"
}

// Not template for this type of epic
} else {
log.debug "Story '" + story.summary + "' with type '" + storyType + "' has NO task template"
}
