Will API v5 be supported? #86

Open myanaros opened 11 years ago

myanaros commented 11 years ago

It looks like v5 will be using JSON instead of XML, among adding tons of functionality. Will support be added for v5?

jasonnoble commented 11 years ago

That is in the plan, yes.

jasonnoble commented 11 years ago

http://pivotallabs.com/new-pivotal-tracker-api-now-in-beta/ It's officially in Beta.

jomsie1 commented 11 years ago

Hi! I'm assuming V5 will be supported when it is stable and finalized? (Also assuming it will change somewhat between beta and release)

forest commented 11 years ago

Please make the gem thread safe when updating to the new API. Using the gem in sidekiq workers exposed the fundamental flaw that the PivotalTracker::Client.token is global and not thread safe.

I'm happy to help with this.

jasonnoble commented 11 years ago

Will do.

BartlomiejSkwira commented 10 years ago

V5 is beta, but is the recommended one ;)

Dan Podsedly says: Bartlomiej, thanks for pointing that out – we meant to say that V3 is no longer being enhanced and will eventually be removed. We’re clarifying the messaging in the API help docs.

V3 is still supported, but we recommend using V5 at this point. It’s quite stable, but we’re still adding some endpoints, and may tweak some minor things before removing the “beta” label.

V4 is mostly the same as V3, and was never officially released.

[edit]: any chance there is a deadline for v5 support? :P

parkerl commented 10 years ago

Love to help in any way with the move to V5

forest commented 10 years ago

I started a new thread safe gem for the Pivotal Tracker v5 API. It currently supports most get requests (read-only) as that is my current need.

https://t.e2ma.net/message/q7a3q/yhw4si API V5 is out of beta...

FWDavide commented 9 years ago

Is there any plan to move to V5 of the API ?

jsmestad commented 9 years ago

Let me see if I can reach out and get an answer to this. If not, maybe I suck it up and come back around to committing on this repo :)

guiman commented 9 years ago

I'm currently building an application using V5 (using raw api calls), and I'm thinking about using this gem instead. Is there any current working branch to start from @jsmestad? I will start a fork but interested on keep posted about this.

sbleon commented 9 years ago

I use this gem pretty extensively in a core business app, but I really also need to make the switch to v5. I would contribute to a fork. I think the public API of this gem is pretty solid and worth preserving, although the internals will probably need a pretty extensive overhaul due to the switch from v3's XML to v5's JSON.

I've already convinced a friend at work to get started into this. And completely agree on keeping the current gem API. Is there a tracking system setup for this gem in particular? If not, Pivotal Could be a good place to get one started for it.

sbleon commented 9 years ago

I don't know of any tracking system. Pivotal does seem like an obvious choice!

jasonnoble commented 9 years ago

Hey all, @jsmestad reached out to me a while back, and the following was my response. I'd love to see this get worked on, unfortunately, I don't have the time.

Tracker project is available at https://www.pivotaltracker.com/n/projects/1269684

I spent some time on this a year and a half ago…

https://github.com/jasonnoble/pivotal-tracker/tree/api_version5 This was my initial re-write. Last updated in August of 2013.

https://github.com/davincicoders/pivotal-tracker-v5 This was my student’s effort to expand on my repo above, it’s a little farther, but still a year outdated Note: https://github.com/davincicoders/pivotal-tracker-v5/blob/master/spec/spec_helper.rb This has some IMO helpful VCR stuff to filter out sensitive data from the VCR tapes (1)

I definitely think the gem needs to support V5 API, unfortunately I don’t have the time to take a leadership role on this.

Also… @forest commented on https://github.com/jsmestad/pivotal-tracker/issues/86 that the updates need to be thread safe. Looks like he has some work at https://github.com/dashofcode/tracker_api, so you may want to consider pulling (some of?) that code back into the pivotal-tracker gem. Maybe @forest has some time to help out?

1) My hope with these changes would be that someone who wants to contribute to the gem would simply have to do the following:

Login to Pivotal Tracker
Create Project -> Check the Add sample project data checkbox and click Create Project
*** Populate pivotal_credentials.yml *** (https://github.com/davincicoders/pivotal-tracker-v5/blob/master/config/pivotal_credentials.yml.example)
rake spec

This would then run all the tests. Maybe have an environment variable that would hit the live API?

forest commented 9 years ago

@jasonnoble I'm committed now to the new https://github.com/dashofcode/tracker_api gem. I am actively maintaing and have been accepting many pull requests from the community using this new gem. The read interface is mostly complete, but there is work to do still on updating data. I just pushed a version with the ability to update stories that lays a good foundation for adding update capabilities to the other resources.

The inteterface is similar to this gem as I use it heavely before I ran into thread safe issues and needed features from the v5 API. So it shouldn't be a big streach for people to change.

I'd be happy to have contributions.

jasonnoble commented 9 years ago

Would you consider combining the two? // @jsmestad

jsmestad commented 9 years ago

@jasonnoble @forest definitely. I would love to move to using Faraday anyway.

jsmestad commented 9 years ago

@forest I'm committing to re-writing this gem over the next month or two.

jasonm23 commented 9 years ago

Have you looked at Blanket Wrapper gem, it's ideal for this sort of project.

sbleon commented 9 years ago

@jsmestad how's the V5 rewrite going? Can you use any help with it? I'm trying to figure out if I should focus on https://github.com/dashofcode/tracker_api instead.

jsmestad commented 9 years ago

I have not had much time to work on it to be honest. the dashofcode/tracker_api I have used and can say its lacking some features and customization that this gem provides, but overall stable.

Justin Smestad
