A third party extension for Automation for Jira: BundleException

[Irina S]

Hi all,

We develop a plugin for Jira Data Center (Git Plugin for Jira). We are developing own Automation for Jira  triggers and managed to implement them following the instructions. Our triggers work. Great.

But we want our plugin to stay enabled when Automation for Jira plugin is disabled. How to achieve it? Is it possible to register automation-rule-component dynamically?

<automation-rule-component.../>

Steps to reproduce

• install Automation for Jira
• install our plugin
• Result: rules with our triggers can be created, actions are executed when it's required. Great
• disable Automation for Jira

Actual result

• our plugin is disabled also automatically
• our plugin can't be installed/enabled. The next exception appears in logs

Expected result

• our plugin stays enabled or at least can be installed successfully when Automation for Jira is not installed

I resolved the issue by removing this one

<component key="my-automation-trigger" name="My automation Trigger" 
           class="com.my.MyTrigger" 
           interface = "com.codebarrel.automation.api.thirdparty.EventTriggerRuleComponent" 
           public="true">

</component>

I left this one

<automation-rule-component key="my-trigger"
                           class="com.my.MyTrigger"
                           name="My trigger"
                           type="TRIGGER">
    <param name="projectSafe">true</param>
</automation-rule-component>
