BZ::Client::FlagType - The API for creating, changing, and getting info on Flags
version 4.4002
This class provides methods for accessing and managing Flags in Bugzilla.
my $client = BZ::Client->new( url => $url, user => $user, password => $password ); my %results = BZ::Client::FlagType->get( $client, \%params ); my $id = BZ::Client::FlagType->create( $client, \%params ); my @updates = BZ::Client::FlagType->update( $client, \%params );
This section lists the class methods, which are available in this module.
$id = BZ::Client::FlagType->get( $client, \%params );
Get information about valid flag types that can be set for bugs and attachments.
Added in Bugzilla 5.0.
You must pass a product "name" and an optional "component" name.
product (string) The name of a valid product.
component (string) An optional valid component name associated with the product.
A hash containing two keys, bug and attachment. Each key value is an array of hashes, containing the following keys:
id (int) An integer ID uniquely identifying this flag type.
name (string) The name for the flag type.
type (string) The target of the flag type which is either bug or attachment.
description (string) The description of the flag type.
values (array) An array of string values that the user can set on the flag type.
is_requesteeble (boolean) Users can ask specific other users to set flags of this type.
is_multiplicable (boolean) Multiple flags of this type can be set for the same bug or attachment.
Either the product does not exist or you don't have access to it.
The component provided does not exist in the product.
$id = BZ::Client::FlagType->create( $client, \%params );
This allows you to create a new Flag Type in Bugzilla.
Marked as unstable as of Bugzilla 5.0.
Some params must be set, or an error will be thrown. These params are noted as Required.
name (string) A short name identifying this type.
Required.
description (string) A comprehensive description of this type.
inclusions (array) An array of strings or a hash containing product names, and optionally component names. If you provide a string, the flag type will be shown on all bugs in that product. If you provide a hash, the key represents the product name, and the value is the components of the product to be included.
For example:
[ 'FooProduct', { BarProduct => [ 'C1', 'C3' ], BazProduct => [ 'C7' ] } ]
This flag will be added to All components of FooProduct, components C1 and C3 of BarProduct, and C7 of BazProduct.
exclusions (array) An array of strings or hashes containing product names. This uses the same format as inclusions.
This will exclude the flag from all products and components specified.
sortkey (int) A number between 1 and 32767 by which this type will be sorted when displayed to users in a list; ignore if you don't care what order the types appear in or if you want them to appear in alphabetical order.
is_active (boolean) Flag of this type appear in the UI and can be set.
Default is true.
is_requestable (boolean) Users can ask for flags of this type to be set.
cc_list (array) An array of strings. If the flag type is requestable, who should receive e-mail notification of requests. This is an array of e-mail addresses which do not need to be Bugzilla logins.
is_specifically_requestable (boolean) Users can ask specific other users to set flags of this type as opposed to just asking the wind.
is_multiplicable (boolean) Multiple flags of this type can be set on the same bug.
grant_group (string) The group allowed to grant/deny flags of this type (to allow all users to grant/deny these flags, select no group).
Default is no group.
request_group (string) If flags of this type are requestable, the group allowed to request them (to allow all users to request these flags, select no group). Note that the request group alone has no effect if the grant group is not defined!
The ID of the newly-created group.
The group name you entered does not exist, or you do not have access to it.
The component does not exist for this product.
Either the product does not exist or you don't have editcomponents privileges to it.
One of the e-mail address in the CC list is invalid. An e-mail in the CC list does NOT need to be a valid Bugzilla user.
You must specify a non-blank name for this flag type. It must no contain spaces or commas, and must be 50 characters or less.
You must specify a description for this flag type.
The CC list must be 200 characters or less.
The sort key is not a valid number.
This flag type is not available for the products you can administer. Therefore you can not edit attributes of the flag type, other than the inclusion and exclusion list.
@results = BZ::Client::FlagType->update( $client, \%params ); $results = BZ::Client::FlagType->update( $client, \%params );
This allows you to update a flag type in Bugzilla.
Note: The following parameters specify which products you are updating. You must set one or both of these parameters.
ids (array of ints) Numeric ids of the flag types that you wish to update.
names (array of strings) Names of the flag types that you wish to update. If many flag types have the same name, this will change ALL of them.
Note: The following parameters specify the new values you want to set for the products you are updating.
An array of strings or a hash containing product names, and optionally component names.
If you provide a string, the flag type will be shown on all bugs in that product.
If you provide a hash, the key represents the product name, and the value is the components of the product to be included.
This flag will be added to all components of FooProduct, components C1 and C3 of BarProduct, and C7 of BazProduct.
FooProduct
C1
C3
BarProduct
C7
BazProduct
An array of strings or hashes containing product names.
This uses the same fromat as "inclusions".
request_group (string) If flags of this type are requestable, the group allowed to request them (to allow all users to request these flags, select no group).
Note that the request group alone has no effect if the grant group is not defined!
An array of hashes with the following fields:
id (int) The ID of the product that was updated.
name (string) The name of the product that was updated.
changes (hash) The changes that were actually done on this product.
The keys are the names of the fields that were changed, and the values are a hash with two keys:
added (string) The value that this field was changed to.
removed (string) The value that was previously set in this field.
Note that booleans will be represented with the strings 1 and 0.
1
0
Here's an example of what a return value might look like:
[ { id => 123, changes => { name => { removed => 'FooFlagType', added => 'BarFlagType' }, is_requestable => { removed => '1', added => '0', } } } ]
