Modify script to set a sue date and time in a datetime field

[Graham Horsman]

I'm trying to set an issues DateTime field at issue creation time based on priority. I've started by using Mizan's script in this question: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/27052/customize-priority-based-on-custom-field

However I want the datetime to be set more granularly. 1 hour for Critical, 2 Hours for high etc. I've modified the script sucessfully to use my own priorties but I can't figure out how I can set the datetime field to be set with the time as well as the date. Note I haven't even figured out how to call the custom field yet!

My version of the script is here:

import java.sql.Timestamp
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

// initializing the priority

def CRITICAL = 1;
def HIGH = 3;
def MEDIUM = 9;
def LOW = 30;

// calender which returns the date according to the priority defined

private GregorianCalendar getDate(double roll)
{
        Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
        cal.setFirstDayOfWeek(Calendar.MONDAY);
        cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY,0);
        cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE,0);
        cal.set(Calendar.SECOND,0);
        cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND,0);

        for (int x=0;x<roll;x++)
{
                cal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);
           }

        return cal;
}

MutableIssue mutableIssue = (MutableIssue) issue;
def priority = mutableIssue.getPriority().getString("name");
def setDueDate = mutableIssue.getDueDate();
 //onlY set the dueDate if the date isn't already set (i.e. if it == null).

        GregorianCalendar cal;

         if(priority.equals("Critical"))
{
                cal = getDate(CRITICAL);
           }
   else if(priority.equals("High"))
{
                cal = getDate(HIGH);
           }
   else if(priority.equals("Medium"))
{
                cal = getDate(MEDIUM);
           }
        Timestamp dueDate = new Timestamp(cal.getTimeInMillis());
        mutableIssue.getPriorityObject();
        mutableIssue.setDueDate(dueDate);

Hey Graham,

Haven't tested this code but maybe you can get some ideas from it.

Hi Bhushan,

Thanks very much for this. It'll take me a while to work my way through it but I'll have a play and see how I get on!

Sorry about the bounty being added and cancelled. I'm trying to assign 5 karma but it keeps setting it to 30 which is a bit steep for me :/
