Dumb question - how do I find out what an issue contains? #17

Closed scottharman closed 12 years ago

scottharman commented 12 years ago

I'm hoping to just cherry pick some fields out of the issue objects - and those of the linked issues i.e. issue.key issue.summary issue.assignee issue.reporter issue.status issue.resolution issue.priority issue.severity (custom) issue.serial_no (custom) issue.customer_name (custom) issue.linked_issue_key issue.linked_issue_summary issue.linked_issue_status

I can imagine the latter three would be difficult to find - but right now I can't even get the assignee Any thoughts on how to address this?

jiraSOAP doesn't provide the full convenience of an ORM (I never got around to it). Some things like the key and summary are attached to the object, so issue.key and issue.summary should give you the key and summary respectively.

However, things like issue.priority are only referenced, so you will have to use the issue.priority_id and then correlate it with the id of a priority.

There should be an example in the Examples file: http://rdoc.info/gems/jiraSOAP/file/docs/Examples.markdown

And in general the documentation should be helpful: http://rdoc.info/gems/jiraSOAP/JIRA/RemoteAPI http://rdoc.info/gems/jiraSOAP/JIRA/Issue#priority_id-instance_method

Thanks for the prompt response - I'll continue to play, but I suspect that I might be able to bodge enough to make it work for my needs ;) I was hoping to be able to treat issues as ActiveRecords, but now after reading a bit more that's not really the way to try and go about things Many thanks Scott
