@PublicApi

This interface is designed for plugins to consume (call its methods).

Clients of @PublicApi can expect that programs compiled against a given version will remain binary compatible with later versions of the @PublicApi as per each product's API policy as long as the client does not implement/extend @PublicApi interfaces or classes (refer to each product's API policy for the exact guarantee---usually binary compatibility is guaranteed at least across minor versions).

Note: since @PublicApi interfaces and classes are not designed to be implemented or extended by clients, we may perform certain types of binary-incompatible changes to these classes and interfaces, but these will not affect well-behaved clients that do not extend/implement these types (in general, only classes and interfaces annotated with @PublicSpi are safe to extend/implement).

Class Overview

Service that retrieves issue-assignable User objects.

Assignees may be filtered on a search string or on recent issue or user history.

Public Methods

public Collection<User> findAssignableUsers (String query, Issue issue, ActionDescriptor actionDescriptor)

Get assignable Users based on a query string and issue.

Matches on the start of username, Each word in Full Name & email.

Results are sorted according to the UserBestNameComparator.

Parameters
query String to search for.
issue Issue to check Assignee permissions against
actionDescriptor an com.opensymphony.workflow.loader.ActionDescriptor describing the context in which the Assignee is being searched
Returns
  • List of User objects that match criteria.

public Collection<User> findAssignableUsers (String query, Project project)

Get assignable Users based on a query string and project.

Matches on the start of username, Each word in Full Name & email.

Results are sorted according to the UserBestNameComparator.

Parameters
query String to search for.
project Project check Assignee permissions against
Returns
  • List of User objects that match criteria.

public List<User> getAssignableUsers (Collection<Issue> issues, ActionDescriptor actionDescriptor)

Get all Users that may have all of the given Issues assigned to them, for a given workflow state.

The ActionDescriptor may be used to check for workflow states that only allow a subset of normally-assignable users.

Note: This method is exactly equivalent to getAssignableUsers(Issue, ActionDescriptor), but returns only those users that are assignable for all of the issues. This is significantly more efficient than calling getAssignableUsers(Issue, ActionDescriptor) multiple times and filtering the lists yourself.

Parameters
issues the Issues to find assignable users for
actionDescriptor workflow action descriptor to filter users on
Returns
  • a list of Users sorted by name

public List<User> getAssignableUsers (Issue issue, ActionDescriptor actionDescriptor)

Get all Users that may have an Issue assigned to them, for a given workflow state.

Parameters
issue the Issue to find assignable users for
actionDescriptor workflow action descriptor to filter users on
Returns
  • a list of Users sorted by name

public Set<String> getRecentAssigneeKeysForIssue (Issue issue)

Returns the keys of Users that the given Issue has recently been assigned to.

The current assignee should be included in the returned list.

Parameters

  • a Set of assignee keys

public Set<String> getRecentAssigneeKeysForUser (User remoteUser)

Returns the keys of Users that have recently been assigned to issues by the specified User.
