Week 5 plan

By Ilya Martynov
January 30th, 2006
  • There are minor glitches in new APIs implemented last week (bad naming of methods, methods placed in wrong service, etc). This needs to be fixed.
  • Finish security layer and make ready SOAP API for the production.
  • Start publishing docs on SOAP API: top level description of services, perhaps examples of usage.
  • If time permits add versions of APIs which allow to use codes instead of numeric IDs.

    I need to know how to get a token so I can use the API.

    I need to import publishers before feb 1st.

    forget it I figured it out on my own. god support sucks with ym.

    Freddie, I’m glad you’ve figured out how to login.

    The problem is that the SOAP API service is in early-development stage and is not in production yet. This is why there is no docs (yet), not all APIs have been implemented and no support. What you can see is a testing environment which runs on copy of production database. I.e. even if you change something via the API the changes are not going to be pushed in the production. To be fair I’m not even sure how you learned about the API. To my best knowledge it haven’t been announced widely.

    Wow. I didn’t expect THAT. Thanks Ilya.. Saved me wasting more time on this.

    By the way, You probably know already but just in case, publisher->get($t, $id) doesn’t return anything but an error. Got it while I was figuring out the PHP format for the publisher structure.

    Yeah, it is known problem :) The bug with publisher->get($t, $id) is fixed in SVN already. It should work in the next version.
