[SOLVED] - add javascript to a custom field

[Cristian Calaf]

Hello.

I have a custom field which I use to add a little javascript code on the description, now I would like to add a bigger js code, so I thinked in include a file:

Description:

<script type="text/javascript" src="code.js"></script>

Could I do this?

In which directory must I copy "code.js", I'm using ubuntu server.

thanks

add javascript file as webresource in plugin,

webresource module:

<web-resource key="test-js" name="javascript">
        <dependency>jira.webresources:global-static</dependency>
        <description>JavaScript</description>
        <resource name="test.js" type="download" location="templates/js/test.js" />
        <context>atl.general</context>
         <context>atl.admin</context>
    </web-resource>

is it helped?

Don't do that. Create an issue and attach that JavaScript and use the path of that script in your custom field. This will make sure that it survives upgrades.

If I understand you, you want that I create a new issue with the unique purpose of upload a attached script, after updates jira will maintain the uploaded files directory, so this scripts will continue working, is this ok?

thanks
