是否可以通过Java API从插件管理jira webhooks？

Question

I'm writing plugin for Jira and i need to manage webhooks from plugin code (read, add, edit and delete actions). I have found only one way to manage webhooks - REST API... So, question is simple: can i manage webhooks via java API from my plugin? And if i can, how?

I've found this artifacts: https://maven-repository.com/artifact/com.atlassian.webhooks , but when i try to component-import some interfaces like com.atlassian.webhooks.spi.provider.WebHookRegistry my plugin does not start...

As I understand, you need to fire your code on issue create/update/delete. Then you need to write JIRA Event Listeners for appropriate issue events. Here is tutorial: https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Writing+JIRA+Event+Listeners+with+the+atlassian-event+Library

==================

Sorry, missed the point. I am looking through the sources of jira-webhooks-plugin which is part of JIRA sources (and you get access to them when you buy any JIRA license) and do not see neither com.atlassian.webhooks.spi.provider.WebHookRegistry interface nor implementation.

I see that webhooks are created like this:

                final WebhookDao webHookDao = ao.create(WebhookDao.class,
                    new DBParam("LAST_UPDATED_USER", userManager.getRemoteUsername()),
                    new DBParam("URL", targetUrl),
                    new DBParam("LAST_UPDATED", new Date()),
                    new DBParam("NAME", name),
                    new DBParam("FILTER", filter.isPresent() ? filter.get() : ""),
                    new DBParam("REGISTRATION_METHOD", registrationMethod),
                    new DBParam("ENABLED", true),
                    new DBParam("EXCLUDE_ISSUE_DETAILS", JiraWebHookListenerParameters.ParametersParser.getExcludeIssueDetails(params)),
                    new DBParam("PARAMETERS", JiraWebHookListenerParameters.ParametersParser.getRemainingParameters(params))
            );
            webHookDao.setEvents(Iterables.toArray(events, String.class));
            webHookDao.save();

But probably you will not be able to execute this code in your plugin. Anyway, I advise you to loook into sources.

Please update me with your results.
