function Get-JiraField { <# .Synopsis This function returns information about JIRA fields .DESCRIPTION This function provides information about JIRA fields, or about one field in particular. This is a good way to identify a field's ID by its name, or vice versa. Typically, this information is only needed when identifying what fields are necessary to create or edit issues. See Get-JiraIssueCreateMetadata for more details. .EXAMPLE Get-JiraField This example returns information about all JIRA fields visible to the current user (or using anonymous access if a PSJira session has not been defined). .EXAMPLE Get-JiraField IssueKey This example returns information about the IssueKey field. .INPUTS This function does not accept pipeline input. .OUTPUTS This function outputs the PSJira.Field object(s) that represent the JIRA field(s). .NOTES This function requires either the -Credential parameter to be passed or a persistent JIRA session. See New-JiraSession for more details. If neither are supplied, this function will run with anonymous access to JIRA. #> [CmdletBinding()] param( # The Field name or ID to search [Parameter(Mandatory = $false, Position = 0, ValueFromRemainingArguments = $true)] [String[]] $Field, # Credentials to use to connect to Jira [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)] [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential] $Credential ) begin { Write-Debug "[Get-JiraField] Reading server from config file" try { $server = Get-JiraConfigServer -ConfigFile $ConfigFile -ErrorAction Stop } catch { $err = $_ Write-Debug "[Get-JiraField] Encountered an error reading the Jira server." throw $err } $uri = "$server/rest/api/latest/field" Write-Debug "[Get-JiraField] Obtaining all fields from Jira" $allFields = ConvertTo-JiraField -InputObject (Invoke-JiraMethod -Method Get -URI $uri -Credential $Credential) } process { if ($Field) { foreach ($f in $Field) { Write-Debug "[Get-JiraField] Processing field [$f]" Write-Debug "[Get-JiraField] Searching for field (name=[$f])" $thisField = $allFields | Where-Object -FilterScript {$_.Name -eq $f} if ($thisField) { Write-Debug "[Get-JiraField] Found results; outputting" Write-Output $thisField } else { Write-Debug "[Get-JiraField] No results were found for issue type by name.
