I'm trying to upgrade a JIRA 8.x, JDK8 plugin to JIRA 10.3 and am having trouble locating the updated version of these maven dependencies, can anyone assist? It's not clear what version numbers would correspond to JIRA 10.3, and some dependencies seem to be abandoned. Also any other changes we should look out for would be helpful, eg. the atlassian-plugin.xml.

 

- com.atlassian.plugins.rest:atlassian-rest-common:1.0.2
- com.atlassian.crowd:embedded-crowd-core:2.7.1
- com.atlassian.activeobjects:activeobjects-plugin:1.2.3
- com.atlassian.sal:sal-api:3.0.2
- com.atlassian.platform:3.0.0

Also the atlassian-maven-plugin seems to have been moved somewhere else, we're currently using:


- com.atlassian.maven.plugins:maven-jira-plugin:6.1.2

Hi @MT 

I trust that by posting this question to the Atlassian Developer Community, you will receive more answers.

As far as I know,

- atlassian-rest-common is deprecated and you can replace it with Jersey 2 or REST modules provided by Jira.

- embedded-crowd-core, it's not recommended to depend on directly, you can use jira-api or jira-core dependencies which offer user/group APIs.

- activeobjects, this page lists the used Active Objects versions for all Atlassian products (including Jira)

- sal-api,  upgrade to sal-api:4.0.0

maven-jira-plugin is now jira-maven-plugin, pick the latest compatible version from here

<plugin>
<groupId>com.atlassian.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>jira-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>9.0.4</version>
</plugin>
