xml used by rest API is invalid
Added by Florent Fievez over 13 years ago.
Updated over 9 years ago.
Description
The xml format used by REST API to insert a bug seem to be invalid. In forum page : http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/17070 an example show the following :
<issue>
<project_id>1</project_id>
<tracker_id>1</tracker_id>
<subject>test2</subject>
<description>desc1gsdfgsdg</description>
<custom_field_values>
<1>test</1>
</custom_field_values>
</issue>
Except that this XML code is invalid. Indeed:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-xml-20081126/#NT-NameStartChar
specify that every node should start by a char within :
NameStartChar ::= ":" | [A-Z] | "_" | [a-z] | [#xC0-#xD6] | [#xD8-#xF6] | [#xF8-#x2FF] | [#x370-#x37D] | [#x37F-#x1FFF] | [#x200C-#x200D] | [#x2070-#x218F] | [#x2C00-#x2FEF] | [#x3001-#xD7FF] | [#xF900-#xFDCF] | [#xFDF0-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#xEFFFF]
The result is that you cannot generate xml with DOM API. Currently, I use DOM but with a very bad workaround :
$aElem = $aXmlDoc->createElement("_TOREMOVE_1");
(...)
$aXmlOut = str_replace("_TOREMOVE_","",$aXmlDoc->saveXML($aRoot));
Can you try to fix it ?
- Status changed from New to Resolved
- Target version set to 1.0.5
- Affected version (unused) set to 1.0.4
- Resolution set to Fixed
- Affected version set to 1.0.4
Fixed in r4481. You can now use the piece of xml that the API returns to update custom fields:
<custom_fields>
<custom_field id="1">
<value>Foo</value>
</custom_field>
...
</custom_fields>
If #6403 needed to be scheduled for 1.1.0, Shouldn't this issue be to 1.1.0 too?
- Status changed from Resolved to Closed
- Target version changed from 1.0.5 to 1.1.0
You're right. No feedback, I think it can wait 1.1.
The Example is bad, good one :
<custom_fields type="array">
<custom_field id="1">
<value>Foo</value>
</custom_field>
...
</custom_fields>
I just tried the following input
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

<tracker id="4" name="Service"/>
</issue>
where the custom field is an enumeration, the value however is not updated to the provided EXPIRED.
This is Redmine 2.4.3.stable
