[Lukas Kinc]

Hi,

I need get list of custom fields which I have on all of screens on a project.

Have you any advice how can I get this by groovy script?

Thanks

Hi Lukas,

I ended up in the exactly same situation as you and solved it by:

//imports ad lib...

Set<String> getFieldsOnScreen(FieldScreenScheme fieldScreenScheme, IssueOperation issueOperation) {
    CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(CustomFieldManager)
    Set<String> result = new HashSet<String>()

    FieldScreen fieldScreen = fieldScreenScheme.getFieldScreen(issueOperation) 
    fieldScreen.getTabs().each{FieldScreenTab fieldScreenTab ->
        fieldScreenTab.getFieldScreenLayoutItems().each{FieldScreenLayoutItem fieldScreenLayoutItem ->
            String fieldId = fieldScreenLayoutItem.getFieldId()
            // I am only interested in custom fields - change appropriately
            if (fieldId.startsWith("customfield")) {
               CustomField customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(fieldId)
               result.add(customField.getName())
            }
        }
    }

    return result
}

Set<String> getFieldsOnScreens(FieldScreenScheme fieldScreenScheme) {
    // I am only interested in Edit and View screens - change appropriately
    return getFieldsOnScreen(fieldScreenScheme, IssueOperations.EDIT_ISSUE_OPERATION) + getFieldsOnScreen(fieldScreenScheme, IssueOperations.VIEW_ISSUE_OPERATION)
}

IssueTypeScreenSchemeManager issueTypeScreenSchemeManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueTypeScreenSchemeManager()

IssueTypeScreenScheme issueTypeScreenScheme = issueTypeScreenSchemeManager.getIssueTypeScreenScheme(<My Project>) 
FieldScreenScheme fieldScreenScheme = issueTypeScreenScheme.getEffectiveFieldScreenScheme(<My IssueType>)

return getFieldsOnScreens(fieldScreenScheme)

Hi Sune,

the easiest way I saw on this site.

By the way, it does not take care of the "technical" fields hidden in transition screens nor postFunctions.

+1 anyway.

Hi Lukas,

I can show you how to get a list of all fields on the screens for a given issue if that helps.

Would you like to share with us this knowledge?

Hi Adam,

The code I pasted above should do it.
