Description

I doesn't seem to be possible to get projects as JSON
I did add this

  def index
    respond_to do |format|
      >>>>>>> format.json { render :text => Project.visible.find(:all, :order => 'lft').to_json, :layout => false }
      format.html { 
        @projects = Project.visible.find(:all, :order => 'lft') 
      }
      format.xml  {
        @projects = Project.visible.find(:all, :order => 'lft')
      }
      format.atom {
        projects = Project.visible.find(:all, :order => 'created_on DESC',
                                              :limit => Setting.feeds_limit.to_i)
        render_feed(projects, :title => "#{Setting.app_title}: #{l(:label_project_latest)}")
      }
    end
  end

Looks like the JSON api for projects was missed. I'm going to be reviewing the existing APIs and trying to clean them up over the next few weeks.

Great thank!

Another info:

I wanted to use JSON to create a mobile application with Rhomobile
I had problems with the "Issues" REST interface because of illegal characters.
Rhomobile have a "Rho::AsyncHttp.get" method to consume JSON services.
My Redmine instance return something like

[{"start_date":"2010/09/10","deliverable_id":211,"estimated_hours":null,"priority_id":4,"created_on":"2010/09/10 16:56:56 
+0200","project_id":278,"root_id":8117,"lock_version":3,"lft":1,"fixed_version_id":113,"updated_on":"2010/09/13 20:47:44 
+0200","subject":"Adaptations","id":8117,"done_ratio":90,"assigned_to_id":11,"tracker_id":2,"category_id":null,"parent_id":null,
"due_date":null,"status_id":2,"description":"Hello, Anglais =\u003E","author_id":255,"rgt":2}]

I noticed a problem with the last character "\u003E". Once replace by "\u003e" (lowercase) it worked !!
So I did modify the Issues controller to return lowercase UTF8 entities.

 format.json { 
   j = @issues.to_json
   j.gsub!(/(u00)(.?)(.?)/){|n|  n.downcase}
   render :text => j, :layout => false 
 }

instead of

  format.json { render :text => @issues.to_json, :layout => false }

Strange....

I don't know where the problem comes from. I sent a ticket to Rhomobile

From http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627.txt?number=4627 section 2.5 defining JSON, a unicode escape sequence is:

a reverse solidus, followed
by the lowercase letter u, followed by four hexadecimal digits that
encode the character's code point. The hexadecimal letters A though
F can be upper or lowercase.

so it would appear to be the client library which is at fault
