Filter by subcategories #21

Closed s-makin closed 1 year ago

s-makin commented 1 year ago

The ability to filter by subcategories as well as tags would be really useful for some teams. For example:

https://discourse.ubuntu.com/c/server/cloud-init/54

Is in the server category, but the cloud-init subcategory

This is actually already supported, the readme outlines e.g. dsctriage -c 'general discussions/microk8s' -s https://discuss.kubernetes.io and it works fine.

But whatever I do I can not get the same working on https://discourse.ubuntu.com I'd expect the above to be dsctriage --fullurls -s https://discourse.ubuntu.com -c "Server/cloud-init" or a lower/upper case variation thereof. But I can't get this or any other subcategory listed at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/categories working.

OTOH the fact that https://discourse.ubuntu.com/categories lists cloud-init suggests it is a sub-category and not a tag. I see in https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/about-the-cloud-init-category/17865.json that it should be category id 54.

So the question IMHO is more "What do we need to pass to dsctriage to get this selected?"

Looks like the problem is with discourse.ubuntu.com. In https://discourse.ubuntu.com/categories.json?include_subcategories=true none of the categories contain a subcategory_list array such as with https://discuss.kubernetes.io/categories.json?include_subcategories=true. I can work around this though using the subcategory_ids array
