create_issues documentation is wrong about project field

[jangeja]

When creating issues, if one of the issues contain an invalid value for a field, the program quits on an AttributeError.

File "jiracli.py", line 159, in create issues = self.jira.create_issues(field_list=fields['issues']) File "/Users/jangeja/everops/CLIs/jiraCLI/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/jira/client.py", line 936, in create_issues r = self._session.post(url, data=json.dumps(data)) File "/Users/jangeja/everops/CLIs/jiraCLI/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/jira/resilientsession.py", line 154, in post return self.__verb('POST', url, **kwargs) File "/Users/jangeja/everops/CLIs/jiraCLI/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/jira/resilientsession.py", line 147, in __verb raise_on_error(response, verb=verb, **kwargs) File "/Users/jangeja/everops/CLIs/jiraCLI/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/jira/resilientsession.py", line 50, in raise_on_error error_list = response['errors'].values() AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'values'

The actual response from the failed create is [{u'status': 400, u'elementErrors': {u'errorMessages': [], u'errors': {u'versions': u"Version name '1.2' is not valid"}}, u'failedElementNumber': 0}]

So its calling .values() on the list object causing it to fail

Any news on this? I have the same problem.

Same problem for me, I was able to reproduce it with this sample of code.

issue_list = [
{
    'project': {'name': 'DBG'},
    'summary': 'Test GOJIRA',
    'description': '',
    'issuetype': {'name': 'Evolution'},
}]


issues = jira.create_issues(field_list=issue_list)

Then this is the stack

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".\update_jira.py", line 25, in <module>
    issues = jira.create_issues(field_list=issue_list)
  File "D:\Program Files\Python\Python36-32\lib\site-packages\jira\client.py", line 975, in create_issues
    r = self._session.post(url, data=json.dumps(data))
  File "D:\Program Files\Python\Python36-32\lib\site-packages\jira\resilientsession.py", line 153, in post
    return self.__verb('POST', url, **kwargs)
  File "D:\Program Files\Python\Python36-32\lib\site-packages\jira\resilientsession.py", line 146, in __verb
    raise_on_error(response, verb=verb, **kwargs)
  File "D:\Program Files\Python\Python36-32\lib\site-packages\jira\resilientsession.py", line 49, in raise_on_error
    error_list = response['errors'].values()
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'values'

This is not technically a bug, if instead of:

issue_list = [
{
    'project': {'name': 'DBG'},
    'summary': 'Test GOJIRA',
    'description': '',
    'issuetype': {'name': 'Evolution'},
}]

you use

issue_list = [
{
    'project': 1234,
    'summary': 'Test GOJIRA',
    'description': '',
    'issuetype': {'name': 'Evolution'},
}]

The same example will work. It just requires IDs currently.

@ssbarnea I am not sure if we should just update documentation or update this as an enhancement.

[ssbarnea]

@hdost Please update the documentation and close the bug. For enhancements we welcome anyone to create PRs.
