Description/Features

This plug-in adds custom fields of "Last closed date/user", "Last resolved date/user", "Reopening count of an issue", searching capabilities according to these custom fields, and a report of "User/Group action tracking report"

A plugin that allows user

  • add custom fields of
    • Last Closure Date : Shows issue' s last closing date|
    • Last Closure User : Shows the user that closed the issue|
    • Last Resolution Date : Shows issue' s last resolution date|
    • Last Resolution User : Shows the user that resolved the issue|
    • Reopening Counter : Shows the reopening count and history of the issue|
  • show tab of reopenings history
  • search issues by above custom fields
  • display a histogram of issues that user/group modified over a specified period

Installation and Usage

  1. Put plug-in's newest jar file to your WEB-INF/lib folder.
    Get jar file according to your JIRA version below.
  2. Restart JIRA

    4. Reopening Counter
      All custom fields may be seen as follows :



      To see custom fields as a view in issue, add field to screen from Administration -> Screens menu item and Configure as below. I only added "Reopnening History" to be seen in issue' s page.

      If you want, you may add other custom fields to your screen.
      After these steps you may need to re-index by Administration -> Indexing -> re-Index

Examples

Navigation bar with custom fields

If you add custom fields to navigation bar, you may see JIRA navigator as below

      Hi Collin,

      Sorry about that. I just recognized that Jira 3.7 API has some changes such as ActionManager interface. I used this interface in 3.6.5 api. i am gonna fix it if i have time to understand new design api.

    We are developing some rpc-jira-plugin for our instance of jira.
    After installation of mkk-jira-plugin-1.0.jar our plugin crash.

    I'm researching this problem!
    During call of method

    RemoteIssue issue = issueService.getIssueById(user, issue);

    we've got an exception:

    (java.lang.RuntimeException) java.lang.RuntimeException: class tr.com.mkk.plugin.jira.LastResolvedDateCFType passed an invalid value of type: class java.sql.Timestamp

    Looks like the problem is in LastResolvedDateCFType class. There is the following method:

    public String getStringFromSingularObject(Object value) {
    assertObjectImplementsType(User.class, value);
    return userConverter.getString((User) value);
    }

    but real type of passed parameter value is java.sql.Timestamp and NOT com.opensymphony.user.User
    So "assertObjectImplementsType(User.class, value)" throws an RuntimeException.
    As for me method "getStringFromSingularObject" should convert Timestamp to String
    and "getSingularObjectFromString" vice versa: String to Timestamp.
    The same problem with LastClosedDateCFType class.

    After I change that our plugin brings to life. And yours plugin also work good as before.

    Is it a bug or I don't understund something?

    It is a bug.

    Please notice that class "LastClosedDateCFType" is almost exact copy of class "LastClosedUserCFType" and author probably has forgotten to change some methods.

     General question to author:

    Can I submitt here a new version of this plugin with this error fixed and refactored to work with newest JIRA (3.8) ????

    Great plugin, has helped a lot! However, it only works with some of our issue types, as we have some custom workflows.

    These workflows don't have a 'Resolved' status so the field doesn't work in this case (However, we still set the issue resolution, which effectively makes the issue 'Resolved'). I would suggest that a better way to determine when the issue is 'Resolved' is when the Resolution is set to something other than 'UNRESOLVED', rather than relying on the workflow status.

    I'm using Jira 3.6.3 with v1.1 of this plugin, though from the source it looks as if the same would be true in v1.2.

    Just my 2 pence, and to save anyone in a similar situation the confusion I went through!

    We've installed the plugin and created the custom fields, can see them in search/filter and navigator columns, but are getting the following errors when we try to create new items. Any ideas on how to fix this? (We're running the plugin vsn 1.2 and Jira vsn 3.7.4 on this instance -- do you know if the issue might be fixed with Jira 3.8?)  In case it's useful, we're running Java Version 1.5.0_11.

      In JIRA Enterprise 3.9.1 we get this same error when creating new issues for some projects - notably projects that do not use Project Roles.

      Removing the field of type LastClosedDateCFType solves this problem! So there is definitely something wrong with this field!

    Thanks Tuncay -- we're still confused as to which date you are referring to -- when we initially create a new item in Jira, the resolve and close dates will (by definition) be null.  Is there another date that we need to make sure is not null?  For issues we created before configuring the new custom fields, I can see the resolve/close dates just fine.

      In JIRA all actions are stored in tables called "changegroup" and "changeitem".

      This plugin is searching those changes by the tables mentioned above.
      Every resolved or closed issue has records in these tables.

      In changegroup table there is a CREATION date field. This field is filled by JIRA and must not be null.
      Can you check this field? The error may be related with this null field.

      In code (if you looked at source files, you may see) at LastResolvedDateCFType class

      in getSingularObjectFromString method (where you get NullPointerException) there is a line as below

      new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.SSS").parse(string).getTime());

      here, i assume that your string parameter may be null and in DateFormat you get NullPointerException.

      I sent a new plugin version to you which checks for nulls before parsing it to a Timestamp in this method as below.

      if (null == string) return null;

      i am not sure, but i hope it would work.

      cheers

    trying to run the MKK User History Report and I get the following errors

    A valid "Start Date" is required to generate this report.

    any ideas?

      Obviosly you must get this error if you do not enter a Start Date field to report.

      There is only a control of null values to generate this error.

    First, let me say this is a very handy plugin.

    It would be awesome if there was a version of this that actually saved values to the issue record for last resolved/closed date/user.  This would allow folks to create their own reports, include these fields on dashboards in pie charts, etc. 

     I think you'd have to implement a service to do it, but that would give one the most flexibility when it came to using the fields.

     Just a thought. . .

    You mentioned above that there was a new jar file that might fix this issue could you post it here or get it to me.

     Thanks.
