Samuel Ottenhoff commented on DS-1109:
--------------------------------------
Yeah, installing the code will cause regressions for anyone depending on write
ability. I notice there are already modules on the web using the REST provider
(Drupal has a module for example).
That said, the Hedtek code contains lots of solid tests so may better serve as
the foundation to layer new code on top.
> Incorporate Hedtek Improvements to REST-API
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DS-1109
> URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1109
> Project: DSpace
> Issue Type: Code Task
> Components: REST API (experimental)
> Reporter: Peter Dietz
>
> A group of developers at Hedtek contacted the mailing list making us aware of
> their improvements they have made to the REST-API. Their improvements include
> tests, and other bug fixes to improve stability of the REST api. Their
> improvements have been made to their Git repository, which isn't quite a
> clone of the svn project for the dspace rest project.
> My / PeterDietz's question...
> Shall the dspace-rest project be moved to Github to make it easier for
> community contributions? Including to merge in these improvements from
> Hedtek. DSpace is potentially moving all code to GitHub, and if so, it would
> make sense for modules to move there as well anyways. Tim has recently moved
> the dspace-replicate module code there.
> If so, then I have no problem stitching together the history of our code
> history from SVN, and their disjoint work in their github. From then on,
> hedtek can fork the future consolidated git repository, and continue
> development as they had been. The next benefit is that DSpace can then merge
> in their improvements much easier. Merge, cherry-pick, or Pull-Request.
> Subject: [Dspace-devel] Testing the DSpace REST API
> From: Mark van Harmelen
> Hi everyone
> Through Jorum [1] we've been doing some JISC [2] funded work on testing the
> DSpace REST API. To date we have tested most of the 'read' side of the API,
> later we may be moving onto the 'write' side.
> You can find out what we have done so far at
> http://hedtek.com/2011/dspace-rest-api-testing/ including the URL of our
> github repo (that contains slightly modified code for the API and our tests).
> What we have found out about the API so far appears in the sole/first comment
> on the blog post.
> I am the sole Hedtek person on this list, if you want to ask questions or
> comment, I will pick them up, but even better please to cc them to
> hed...@googlegroups.com
> Thanks/regards
