Duplicate tasks in JIRA

Question

Duplicate tasks in JIRA

Opened this issue 6 years ago · 7 comments

Description
Tasks are created in the JIRA system, but the filter that eliminates duplication does not work. Duplicates are created because the jql query is incorrect and incorrectly verified by the "fingerprint".

Proposed solution
I found a working solution.
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/CONTAINS-does-not-seem-to-work-when-searching-description/qaq-p/408602
I tested this solution on local machine and it's working.

The problem is the wrong symbol "_" in the fingerprints.
The CONTAINS (~) operator incorrectly supports fingerprint.

Maybe, remove the "_" symbol from the fingeprint (by changing the jq instruction
"fingerprint": "\ ($ in.pluginid) _ \ ($ h.uri) _ \ ($ h.method)" on
"fingerprint": "\ ($ in.pluginid) \ ($ h.uri) \ ($ h.method)"

@omerlh What do you think about such an idea?

Sounds good! Seems like there is no need for a PR, right?

@omerlh Unfortunately, the solution does not work. The jql filter is incorrect.
I made the test.

Actual jql query

Modify jql query (based on https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/CONTAINS-does-not-seem-to-work-when-searching-description/qaq-p/408602)
Below is an example output :

I hope you understand :-), the current filter does not find any tasks and duplicates are created.
I think the error is in the file glue / lib / glue / filters / jira_one_time_filter.rb (line 46).
I would like to implement Glue productively, and correct reporting is very important, so I am asking for PR.

Will you able to contribute this PR?

I will try :-), but I will need help with modification
/glue/lib/glue/filters/jira_one_time_filter.rb:46.

I changed
jira.Issue.jql ("project = # {@ project} AND description ~ '# {finding.fingerprint}' AND resolution is EMPTY '). each to | issue |

on
jira.Issue.jql ("project = # {@ project} AND description ~ '"\"#{finding.fingerprint}\""' AND resolution is EMPTY"). each to | issue |

I tried this way, but I get the error:

Let's move to OWASP slack, it will be faster - feel free to ping me there :)
