set date time custom field to current date time using groovy

Paresh Gandhi

I hvae code which works fine to modify custom field value if it is text. I want to update the datetime custom field. I guess date time formatting is wrong in my code.

I also tried

cf.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf), new java.util.Date()),changeHolder);

but did not work

it throws

org.ofbiz.core.entity.GenericEntityException: while inserting: [GenericEntity:CustomFieldValue][id,10270][datevalue,Wed May 14 12:16:21 CDT 2014][issue,10119][parentkey,null][customfield,10009] (Java type java.util.Date not currently supported. Sorry.)

Your date format looks wrong, you have MM twice. I think you want a java.sql.Timestamp, not a Date.

Paresh Gandhi

can you please provide me an example

Thanks!

I was able to set time using

issue.setCustomFieldValue(cf, new Timestamp(new Date(2012,9,17).getTime()))

however how do i set it to current date and time. I counld not find function to pass that to above new Timestamp method.

Lots posts on this board asking the same question but I found nothing that works. I used to do tons of Java script, but not for years, and I'm just getting started with Groovy scripts and JIRA config. I beat my head against this problem for hours on end.

Here is something that works for me in a WF transition script:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import static java.lang.Math.*
import java.sql.Timestamp
 
//Get current issue
Issue issue  		= issue
customFieldManager 	= ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager()

//Getting custom field value
cfSSDate        	= issue.getCustomFieldValue( customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Date of Site Survey") )
 
//Getting custom field object
cfoSID        		= customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Scheduled Install Date")

//change Scheduled Install Date to Date of Site Survey + 7 days (604800000ms)
dSID =  new java.sql.Timestamp(cfSSDate.getTime() + 604800000)


//pass setCustomFieldValue a custom field object and a java.sql.Timestamp
issue.setCustomFieldValue(cfoSID, dSID)
 
//this works too today = new java.sql.Timestamp(new Date(2015,5,17).getTime())
//issue.setCustomFieldValue(cfoSID, today)

Hi there! I'm trying to use this script to set a timestamp in a custom field (Time Stamp In Progress) in a post-function transition. I need to set Time Stamp In Progress to the current date and time when the transition from Open to In Progress occurs. I'm getting multiple errors:

On line 10: [Static type checking] - cannot find matching method com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager#getCustomerFieldManager(). Please check if the declared type is correct and if the method exists.

On line 13: [Static type checking] - the variable [cfSSDate] is undeclared.

On line 16: [Static type checking] - the variable [cfoSID] is undeclared.

On line 19: [Static type checking] - the variable [date] is undeclared. Cannot find matching method com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue#setCustomFieldValue(java.lang.Object). Please check if the declared type is correct and if the method exists.

I don't have much experience with Groovy Scripts, so any advice is appreciated!

@Lauren Robinette yes I can see this is deprecated https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/7.11.0/com/atlassian/jira/ComponentManager.html
