Trigger kb search from scriptrunner

[Laurens Coppens]

We have a scriptrunner script that populates the summary field based on other custom fields, but after populating it, it should trigger the kb search.

When i start typing at the end of summary, it searches, but it doesn't search without human interaction.

Any idea how to trigger the kb search from within scriptrunner?

Hi there,

I did something similar with scriptrunner, but i didn't find how to specially trigger a kb_search with a value.

Instead, I catch the value of a customfield (my need here) and inject it in the summary field value and then trigger the search action through 'jQuery(\"#summary\").trigger(\"paste\");' who's calling the search. I did it by injecting js in summary.helpText

/* Behaviour for composant field */

def composant=getFieldById(getFieldChanged())

def composantVal=composant.getValue()

// SUMMARY EDiT

def summary=getFieldById("summary")

def summaryVal=summary.getValue() as String

if (composantVal!=null) {

    summary.setFormValue((String)composantVal)

    summary.setHelpText("<script>jQuery(\"#summary\").val(\""+(String)composantVal+"\"); jQuery(\"#summary\").trigger(\"paste\");</script>")

} else {

    summary.setHelpText("<script>jQuery(\"#summary\").val(\"\"); jQuery(\"#summary\").trigger(\"paste\");</script>")

}

Hi Laurens,

I just finished to implement the behavior to fill summary field but i'm now facing the exact same issue than you ... trigger the kb search..

A solution would be to add js script but i can't find any documentation on the topic ... (change the js listenner on the field)

Did you found any solution ?
