Listening to changes
In this section, you will learn how to listen for Elements Checklist panel update events.
- Check the Java setup if not already done.
- You may also want to browse the API Javadoc.
Available event
There is only one event available in the API for now.
This is the event definition :
public class PanelUpdatedEvent { /** The issue on which the panel was updated. */ public Issue getIssue() {...} /** The panel content after update. */ public Panel getNewPanel() {...} /** The panel content before update. */ public Panel getOldPanel() {...} /** The update time. */ public long getTimestamp() {...} /** The updater. */ public ApplicationUser getUser() {...} }
Listening to events
Listening to panel events works exactly the same as listener for standard Jira events :
@Named public class MyListener implements InitializingBean, DisposableBean { private final EventPublisher eventPublisher; @Inject public MyListener (@ComponentImport EventPublisher eventPublisher) { this.eventPublisher = eventPublisher; } @EventListener public void onPanelUpdatedEvent(PanelUpdatedEvent event) { // do stuff here } @Override public void afterPropertiesSet() throws Exception { eventPublisher.register(this); } /** * Called when the plugin is being disabled or removed. */ @Override public void destroy() throws Exception { eventPublisher.unregister(this); } }
When this service is instanciated, every update to a panel will call the onPanelUpdatedEvent method.
Performances
As there can be a lot of updates on a platform, make sure to only pick the events that you need (especially for synchronous processing)
