I'm trying to make a JIRA Listener with tutorial but the tutorial is outdate and I've encoutered a problem. Plugin builds, installs but when I want to register Listener I'm getting 

Class [com.example.tutorial.plugins.IssueCreatedResolvedListener] is not of type JiraListener.

I'm trying to do this on JIRA 6.4.13 but tutorial on JIRA 7.x would be also apprieciated.

recent Jira versions uses Spring Scanner as described at https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/atlassian-spring-scanner. Generally, you should:

  • in pom.xml add provided dependency for atlassian-spring-scanner-annotation
  • create a Spring XML file in src/main/resources/META-INF/spring/;
  • remove any component-import from atlassian-plugin.xml;
  • instead of removed component-import, add @Component annotation to your listener class;
  • you class should implement InitializingBean, DisposableBean and LifecycleAware interfaces;
  • overide afterPropertiesSet() to register your listener.

So, your code should looks like this

@ExportAsService
@Component
@Named("IssueCreatedResolvedListener")
public class IssueCreatedResolvedListener implements InitializingBean, DisposableBean, LifecycleAware {
    @ComponentImport
    private final ApplicationProperties applicationProperties;
    @ComponentImport
    private final EventPublisher eventPublisher;
    @ComponentImport
    protected final LifecycleManager lifecycleManager;

    @Inject
    public IssueCreatedResolvedListener(final ApplicationProperties applicationProperties, final EventPublisher eventPublisher,
        final LifecycleManager lifecycleManager) {
        this.applicationProperties = applicationProperties;
        this.eventPublisher = eventPublisher;
        this.lifecycleManager = lifecycleManager;
    }

    @Override
    public void afterPropertiesSet() {
        eventPublisher.register(this);
    }

    @EventListener
    public void onIssueEvent(IssueEvent issueEvent) {
        ...
    }

    ...

}

Hope this helps!
