Escaping issue

[fa-grosch]

The JqlQuery::quote method does not quote the given text correctly. In some scenarios, jira does not understand the jql query.

Jira-Version is: v7.13.0#713000-sha1:fbf4068

I build the query this way:

$jql = '(status != closed OR status changed to Closed after -10d ) AND'
    .' (summary ~ ' . \JiraRestApi\Issue\JqlQuery::quote($firstLine)
    .' OR description ~ ' . \JiraRestApi\Issue\JqlQuery::quote($firstLine) . ')';

$result = $issueService->search($jql);

For some values of $firstLine (maybe for special chars, single/double quotes, slashes or backslashes), jira responds to this with an error:

Fatal error: Uncaught JiraRestApi\JiraException: CURL HTTP Request Failed: Status Code : 400, URL:https://jira.xyz.com/rest/api/2/search

hi @fa-grosch

could you show me the full string in the $firstline variable for debugging purpose?

thanks.

Full query is:

(status != closed OR status changed to Closed after -10d ) AND (summary ~ "session_start(): Failed to read session data: files (path: /var/lib/php/session) in /var/www/service-a/public/index.php on line 14" OR description ~ "session_start(): Failed to read session data: files (path: /var/lib/php/session) in /var/www/service-a/public/index.php on line 14")

When I run it in Jira issue filter directly it results in this error:

Unable to parse the text 'session_start(): Failed to read session data: files (path: /var/lib/php/session) in /var/www/service-a/public/index.php on line 14' for field 'summary'.
Unable to parse the text 'session_start(): Failed to read session data: files (path: /var/lib/php/session) in /var/www/service-a/public/index.php on line 14' for field 'description'.

hi @fa-grosch

JQL has an advanced search operator for text field search, but this library is not yet supported.

instead you can use search operator directly like this.

        $jql =<<< JQL
(status !=  closed OR status changed to Closed after -10d ) AND 
(summary ~ "index.php on line 14*" OR description ~  "index.php on line 14*")
JQL;

    $result = $issueService->search($jql);

@lesstif the value of summary/description represents the first line of a log file so its not possible to replace a specific part of it with a wildcard.
Then I think this report is more likely a feature request than a bug :)
