:ViraFilterProjects -> IndexOutOfBounds

[maricn]

branch dev: https://github.com/n0v1c3/vira/blob/be80ff2783302127bb7606d9acc845a2781f0888/python/Vira/vira_api.py#L380-L381

branch VIRA-247: https://github.com/n0v1c3/vira/blob/e43320406c67831da35b88fcb56a235a9741fade/python/Vira/vira_api.py#L383-L384

In response from:

            projectDesc = self.jira.createmeta(
                projectKeys=project, expand='projects')

I get several:

{"expand": "projects", "projects": []}

It seems JIRA API returns empty "projects" response for archived projects. Python plugin jira uses issues/createmeta which probably suffers from the same limitation mentioned here - archived projects have empty permission scheme so our user doesn't have the privilege to query it. (Maybe.)

Anyways, trying to access [0] will cause IndexOutOfBounds exception.

Looks like get_projects's response can be reused without making additional request with jira.createmeta in print_projects.

To overcome the issue, I applied the following patch to VIRA-247 (e433204) that also takes care of parallelizing requests to the API:

The idea was to re-use the print and always keep refreshing the data in the menus is the idea as it is growing. I am sure my work arounds for more information than we were supposed to have was most of our pain but this one is a new on for sure. Must not delete enough projects.

I did a test on this with a few servers and had no issues. Feel free to make a pull request for it.

@maricn I have pushed this one in. I will hopefully get the async done tonight and then we will have something good for testing out there.

[n0v1c3]

When approved I will close this issue

This issue doesn't appear any more, good to close. :)

I was going to wait for a push from you but I just did the copy and past. I will be wrapping up cleanup on that branch at least to dev today and master quickly.
