Groovy post-function (create) add comment with custom field value

Mario Fernandes

hi all, we wan't to add a comment on issue creation based on a custom field value. For that we use groovyrunner 1.7.14 plugin on JIRA 4.3.4. I have this script be can't figure out what it's goging wrong:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.CommentManager
import org.apache.log4j.Category
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.core.user.UserUtils
import com.opensymphony.user.User
import com.opensymphony.workflow.WorkflowContext
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

String currentUser = ((WorkflowContext) transientVars.get("context")).getCaller();
User currentUserObj = UserUtils.getUser(currentUser);

Issue req = issue;
 
compManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()

sourceFieldName = "Customer Name"
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = compManager.getCustomFieldManager()
CustomField customFieldSrc = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName(sourceFieldName)
sourceFieldVal = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldSrc)

compManager.getCommentManager()
commentMgr = (CommentManager) compManager.getComponentInstanceOfType(CommentManager.class)

//create(com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, boolean)

commentMgr.create(req, currentUserObj, sourceFieldVal, true)
issue.store()

We get this error (atlassian-jira.log):

Caused by: groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.DefaultCommentManager.create() is applicable for argument types: (com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueImpl, com.opensymphony.user.User, java.lang.String, java.lang.Boolean) values: [test Mario, mf, test email, true]

Possible solutions: create(com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, boolean), create(com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.Long, boolean), iterator(), create(com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.Long, java.util.Date, boolean)

With your help, I found the solution! I had to change order of Post functions in the transition (sounds obvious afterwards, my post-script function was called before the issue was created!)

Creates the issue originally. 
— THEN
Script C:/Program Files (x86)/Atlassian/JIRA 4.3.4/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/groovyscripts/add-SOCIETE-as-comment.groovy will be run. 
Edit | Move Up | Move Down | Delete
— THEN
Re-index an issue to keep indexes in sync with the database. 
— THEN
Fire a Demande créée event that can be processed by the listeners. 
Edit

And here is my script:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.CommentManager
import org.apache.log4j.Category
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.core.user.UserUtils
import com.opensymphony.user.User
import com.opensymphony.workflow.WorkflowContext

String currentUser = ((WorkflowContext) transientVars.get("context")).getCaller();
User currentUserObj = UserUtils.getUser(currentUser);

compManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()

sourceFieldName = "Société"
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = compManager.getCustomFieldManager()
CustomField customFieldSrc = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName(sourceFieldName)
sourceFieldVal = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldSrc)

CommentManager commentMgr = compManager.getCommentManager()
commentMgr = (CommentManager) compManager.getComponentInstanceOfType(CommentManager.class)
commentMgr.create(issue, currentUser, sourceFieldVal, false)

Thanks for all!

Daniel Prahl

Currently you are passing the User object as a parameter to the method when it only requires a String containing the username.

So change the line

commentMgr.create(req, currentUserObj, sourceFieldVal, true)

commentMgr.create(req, currentUserObj.getName(), sourceFieldVal, true)

Henning Tietgens

You should use currentUser instead of currentUserObj for the create() method.

I tried both your solutions but get a java.lang.NullPointerException

Additionally I don't see any sense for the line

compManager.getCommentManager()

on it's own. You could use this to get the commentMgr and skip the next statement, so that it looks like

sourceFieldVal = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldSrc)
 
commentMgr = compManager.getCommentManager()
 
//create(com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue, java.lang.String, java.lang.String,

Henning

Henning Tietgens

Ok, the issue doesn't exists at the time you try to add the comment. You can use

transientVars.comment = sourceFieldVal

to add a comment to the transition.

Henning

Mario Fernandes

Thanks for your help Henning. Unfortunatelly, I still get an error because the issue doesn't exist on CreateIssue transition. I replaced

commentMgr = (CommentManager) compManager.getComponentInstanceOfType(CommentManager.class)
commentMgr.create(req, currentUser, sourceFieldVal, true)

transientVars.comment = sourceFieldVal

Here is the error in the log:

2013-03-26 15:37:20,484 http-443-19 WARN mf 937x17138x1 pmfwi1 84.253.14.34 /browse/INF-235 [jira.issue.transitions.TransitionLinkFactory] !!! Issue INF-235 has no workflow ID !!!

Don't try to store the issue at the end, this is done by the transition itself.

Please there is still error,despite the help by Henning,try to provide a possible solution because I like this site it will be very useful.

Henning Tietgens

You should ask a new question and describe your code and the problem you have...

Nic Brough -Adaptavist-

Um, share what? Mario has posted his code and the hint that you need to be careful where to place it. What else are you looking for here?

dhaval soni1

Can you please share ?

I need to execute this during intermediate isssue transition where issue was already created and just need to add comment for which custom field was updated in last transition screen.

can you please share me stuff for that?

thanks

Hello all,

Tear up my hair, but here is one functionnal on JIRA 6.4.3 and script runner plugin.

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManagerimport com.atlassian.jira.issue.comments.CommentManager
import org.apache.log4j.Category
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.opensymphony.workflow.WorkflowContext
import com.atlassian.jira.user.*;
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
compManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()
  
//Gets the conected user on Jira
ApplicationUser currentUser = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getUser();
  
//Gets the CustomField value
sourceFieldName = "Reopening reason" // declare here the CFname
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = compManager.getCustomFieldManager()
CustomField customFieldSrc = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName(sourceFieldName)
sourceFieldVal = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldSrc)
sourceFieldVal = "Motif de réouverture du ticket : \n" + sourceFieldVal 
  
CommentManager commentMgr = compManager.getCommentManager()
commentMgr = (CommentManager) compManager.getComponentInstanceOfType(CommentManager.class)
 
 
//Public Comment
//commentMgr.create(issue, currentUser, sourceFieldVal, false)


//OR a RESTRICTED comment to a role(10200 = Internal users role in my case)
//ComponentAccessor.getCommentManager().create(issue, currentUser, sourceFieldVal, null, 10200 as Long, true)

Just get rid of the // on to select the Public or Restricted comment.

Enjoy
