Hi, Sorry if this question is already answered, but I'm new to rails and can't make it work.
according to http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Rest_Users it's possible to filter users by "name: filter users on their login, firstname, lastname and mail"
I'm trying to retrieve an User id given the user login using the REST API with the exemple presented in http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Rest_api_with_ruby I'm using the following code to do so:
class User < ActiveResource::Base
self.site ='http://localhost:3000/'
self.user = 'admin'
self.password = 'admin'
end
user = User.find(:name => 'Bob' )
however the user value returned in nil
I also realized, that the following URL do not filter the results.
localhost:3001/users.json?name='bob'
but rather give me back a empty value {"users":[],"total_count":0,"offset":0,"limit":25}.
can someone tell me what is wrong with the code?
PS: I also tried with 'login' instead of "name" but id didn't work neither.
