Set the components to show only few values using groovy script

[avinashp]

I am trying to show only few values in the components field using behaviours on the create issue screen. Can anyone help with the Initialiser script ?

This short example limits the list of components in the issue screen to only the components that are less than 5 characters in length:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def allComponents = ComponentAccessor.projectComponentManager.findAllForProject(issueContext.projectId)
def componentField = getFieldById('components')

def allComponentAsMap = allComponents.collectEntries{["$it.id":it.name]}
def smallComponents = allComponentAsMap.findAll{it.value.length() <5}
componentField.setFieldOptions( smallComponents)

Thanks @PD Sheehan  i was struggling to get the collect entries statement. 

This really helps. Appreciate it.

For defining different components 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def allComponents = ComponentAccessor.projectComponentManager.findAllForProject(issueContext.projectId)
def componentField = getFieldById('components')

def allComponentAsMap = allComponents.collectEntries{["$it.id":it.name]}
def smallComponents = allComponentAsMap.findAll{it.value in ["acomponent", "bcomponent"]}
componentField.setFieldOptions( smallComponents)
