fetch/update a single bug? #946

Open srl295 opened 2 years ago

srl295 commented 2 years ago

may be related to #516 somewhat

Maybe I should just be more patient.

However, sometimes there's a new bug assigned to me or an important change to a bug. It would be nice to be able to request a partial pull, of just one specific bug:

I use bugwarrior every day with all of my clients. It could be helpful to shorten the time to switch to a new task.

Some of the queries take a while, and have rate limits. So a shorter query could reduce server load for everyone.

Yes, once #516 is implemented for a given service it ought to be fairly easy to add a command to just pull a given issue through the same method and feed it into the synchronization.

However I'm doubtful there would be enough interest to justify this feature and it seems like resources would be better spent on economizing requests and improving the way we work with rate limits.

I don't know if this is even a thing but it would be nice if services offered an api parameter to filter out issues that haven't changed since X timestamp. Then one should be able to greatly increase the polling frequency without threatening to surpass rate limits.
