Question on adding fixVersions

[stephanwesten]

Hello,

Thank you for your project. It is very useful!

I've a question; I would like to update the fixVersions field of an issue. I thought I could use the same approach as described in the cookbook 'edit jira issue (implicit)'. So using a AddStringOperation like in:

    var operations = &models.UpdateOperations{}
    err = operations.AddArrayOperation("fixVersions", map[string]string{
        "v1": "add",
    })

However I get an error that I need to "Specify a valid version 'id' or 'name' for fixVersions"".

In examples from other languages I see people explicitly including 'name'. However this is not possible with an arrayOperation as it expects a map[string]string.

Do you know how to set the fixVersions field?

thanks

Stephan

PS in the cookbook code it says "atlassian", but it should say "client"

Hi @stephanwesten,

I appreciate your contribution to this open-source project! However, I apologies for the delayed response due I'm in the middle of a job change and my time's a bit tight.

Regarding your question, you're right, the AddArrayOperation() can't handle the multi-picker customfields like the versions, multi-groups, multi-users, etc.

I just created a new method called AddMultiRawOperation() that can handle the fixVersions and any multipicker customfield, the format is the following:

var operations = &models.UpdateOperations{}
operations.AddMultiRawOperation("fixVersions", []map[string]interface{}{

{
    "remove": map[string]interface{}{
        "name": "Version 00",
    },
},

{
    "remove": map[string]interface{}{
        "name": "Version 101",
    },
},

{
    "add": map[string]interface{}{
        "name": "Version 301",
    },
},
}
)

Finally, can you please test the new method from your side and confirm the correct behavior?, just go get with the commit hash:

Pura vida 🏄

Thanks for your support. Honestly, I do not know if i’ve the time to test it. I implemented a solution with just a plain http call that works fine and moved on. It is not nice, but i rather be open about it. Hopefully other people will benefit from your work. Thank you.
