Modules	Block users from resolving issues with unresolved dependencies (on-change rule)

Use Case

If a user tries to fix an issue that depends on another issue that is not resolved, a warning is displayed. The issue state cannot be set to Fixed.

Modules

When the issue state is set to Fixed, the on-change rule in this module checks the list of linked issues for depends on-links.
If there are any linked issues in the depends on list, the rule checks the current state of each linked issue.

If all of the linked issues are resolved, proceed and resolve the current issue.
If any of the linked issues are not resolved, a warning is displayed. The transition to the Fixed state for the original issue is cancelled.

Block users from resolving issues with unresolved dependencies

var entities = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/entities');
var workflow = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/workflow');

exports.rule = entities.Issue.onChange({
  title: workflow.i18n('Block users from resolving issues with unresolved dependencies'),
  guard: function(ctx) {
    return ctx.issue.fields.becomes(ctx.State, ctx.State.Fixed) && ctx.issue.links['depends on'].isNotEmpty();
  },
  action: function(ctx) {
    ctx.issue.links['depends on'].forEach(function(dep) {
      if (!dep.project.isArchived && dep.isReported) {
        workflow.check(dep.isResolved, workflow.i18n('The issue has unresolved dependencies and thus cannot be set Fixed! (depends on {0})', dep.id));
      }
    });
  },
  requirements: {
    State: {
      type: entities.State.fieldType,
      Fixed: {}
    },
    Depend: {
      type: entities.IssueLinkPrototype,
      outward: 'is required for',
      inward: 'depends on'
    }
  }
});
