REST API current status

Added by Mauro Condarelli over 11 years ago

Hi, can someone please confirm current (Redmine version: 2.1.4.stable) status of REST API?
In particular:
  • Is creation of Journals supposed to work when creating an issue?
  • If it is supported: is creation of journal details also supported?
  • If it is not: when can we hope to have it implemented (rough estimate is ok).

I am writing an app (java) to import/export projects to/from Readmine installations, but I need a full control via REST (or: "as full as possible").
App is also able to make a sensible copy of a project subtree on the same Redmine installation.

Specifically:
  • it copies projects and subprojects.
  • it copies users not present on target, but involved in the copied projects.
  • it optionally copies Issues for the copied projects.
  • it allows modifications of some project characteristics before copy.
  • it allows chenges to the assigned users set before copy.
  • yes, it takes into account the notorious ID mapping problem.
  • no, it doesn't currently handle repositories.
  • yes, I plan to add repository support in the near future.

Currently I can dump the journals, but restoring them somewhere doesn't work.

Obviously Status of REST API impacts heavily on what I can or cannot do.
