Why ComponentManager is not defined ?

[Manuel Campomanes]

Hello,

I installed "Quisapps Jira Scripting Suite" plugin on my Jira, I need to execute jython script on workflow transition so I use Jython post-function script.

I try to edit a customfield so I do that :

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField

customFieldManager = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager()
customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10008")

issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, "15/02/2012 10:02")

But I have an error cause by the ComponentManager, he's not defined (name 'ComponentManager' is not defined)

I search information about this error but I failed. I hope you can help me.

Cheers,

Manuel.

there was a problem with the import.

from com.atlassian.jira import ComponentManager

Here is the solution to set a customfield type Date in a post-function (python) :

from com.atlassian.jira import ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import datetime

customFieldManager = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager()
customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10008")

issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, datetime.datetime(2012, 5, 29, 10, 30, 45))

Check datetime documentation for more options.

A little late answer, but in case someone else has the same problem:

I also had this problem when trying to edit an old plugin.

The reason for this is that, by default, "jira-core" has been excluded as an dependency in pom.xml.
Remove the <!-- and --> in the code below to include "jira-core".
This solved my problems.

<!-- Add dependency on jira-core if you want access to JIRA implementation classes as well as the sanctioned API. -->
<!-- This is not normally recommended, but may be required eg when migrating a plugin originally developed against JIRA 4.x -->
<!--
<dependency>
<groupId>com.atlassian.jira</groupId>
<artifactId>jira-core</artifactId>
<version>${jira.version}</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
-->

ImportError: No module named com.atlassian.jira.component

How can i fix this? where can i download com.atlassian.jira.component module and install.

Any suggestions much appreciated.

that's why i thought it didn't look like python.

I take a look about this : https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/wiki/display/JSS/Scripting+Samples

It's a copy modified.

Did you write that yourself, or copy it from somewhere? That doesn't even look like jython code.
