Hide issue type by group with javascript

[DanielG]

Hi,

I made this Web Resource plugin that consist in hide issue type 'Query' to group of users 'client-users'.

First, I test to hide issue type 'Query' to all group of users and works fine, but when I was to hide to 'clients-users' group it doesn't works...

I use Jira 5.2.11 and I don't have context to jira, if I test REST API ("/rest/auth/1/session/") works and show information.

Any suggestion about my error on my code?

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e,context) {
        hideIssueType();
    });
     
    hideIssueType();
function hideIssueType(){
        hide();
    $("#project-field").change(function(){
        hide();        
    });        
     
}
function hide(){

AJS.$.get("/rest/auth/1/session", function (data) {
    userName = data.name;

    // check groups
    AJS.$.get("/rest/api/2/user", {username: userName, expand: "groups"}, function (data) {
        var groups = data.groups;
        var groupItems = jQuery.map(groups.items, function (val, j) {return val.name});

        if (jQuery.inArray("client-users", groups.items)) {
            //check issue type
            $("#issuetype option").each(function()  {              
                if($.trim($(this).text()) == 'Query'){            
                    $(this).remove();
                }
            });
        }
    });
});
 
}
 
});

Thanks in advance,

Daniel

I'm not familiar with JavaScript but the code may give clue

jQuery(document).ready( function($) {

JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e,context) {

hideIssueType();    

});

hideIssueType();

function hideIssueType(){

        var user=getCurrentUserName();          

        if(isUserInGroup(user,'Developers')){

            //add code here to hide issuetype           

        }

 

}

function getCurrentUserName()

{

var user;

     AJS.$.ajax({

        url: "/rest/gadget/1.0/currentUser",

        type: 'get',

        dataType: 'json',

        async: false,

        success: function(data) {

            user = data.username;

        }

     });

     return user;

}

   

   

function getGroups(user)

{

var groups;

     AJS.$.ajax({

        url: "/rest/api/2/user?username="+user+"&expand=groups",

        type: 'get',

        dataType: 'json',

        async: false,

        success: function(data) {

            groups = data.groups.items;

        }

     });

     return groups;

}

function isUserInGroup(user, group){

    var groups = getGroups(user);

    for (i = 0; i < groups.length; i++){

         if (groups[i].name == group){

              return true;

         }

    }

    return false;

}

     

 });

I do these changes and finally these is my code:

jQuery(document).ready( function($) {
 
JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e,context) {
 
hideIssueType();   
 
});
 
hideIssueType();
 
function hideIssueType(){
 
        var user=getCurrentUserName();         
 
        if(isUserInGroup(user,'client-users')){
 
            //code for hide issuetype
		 hide();
	         $("#project-field").change(function(){
       		 hide();       
    		 });           
        }
 
}

function hide(){
        $("#issuetype option").each(function()  {             
                if($.trim($(this).text()) == 'Query'){           
                    $(this).remove();
                }
            });
  
}


//code to get current username logged in jira system
function getCurrentUserName()
 
{
 
var user;
 
     AJS.$.ajax({
 
        url: "/rest/gadget/1.0/currentUser",
 
        type: 'get',
 
        dataType: 'json',
 
        async: false,
 
        success: function(data) {
 
            user = data.username;
 
        }
 
     });
 
     return user;
 
}

//code for get groups of username parameter
function getGroups(user)
 
{
 
var groups;
 
     AJS.$.ajax({
 
        url: "/rest/api/2/user?username="+user+"&expand=groups",
 
        type: 'get',
 
        dataType: 'json',
 
        async: false,
 
        success: function(data) {
 
            groups = data.groups.items;
 
        }
 
     });
 
     return groups;
 
}

//code for check that username is in group
function isUserInGroup(user, group){
 
    var groups = getGroups(user);
 
    for (i = 0; i < groups.length; i++){
 
         if (groups[i].name == group){
 
              return true;
 
         }
 
    }
 
    return false;
 
}
 
      
 
});

But it doesn't works... I don't know why because I do GET request for REST '/rest/api/2/user?username=support&expand=groups' and I get group 'client-users' but it still appears issue type 'Query' in create issue screen ! I don't know why I'm doing wrong...

It was (I think) a cache problem... I test in Chrome (I was using Firefox) and works fine!.
