Not sure if this really helps you (and I agree that the bug system really needs some sort of better programmatic interface), but you can translate most bugs.php.net pages into rss (which is easier to parse than HTML... usually (-: ) by prepending rss/ to the URL. This useful for reading. For example: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=46944 becomes: http://bugs.php.net/rss/bug.php?id=46944 yeah, I'll probably follow this way, but using the format=xml parameter: http://bugs.php.net/rss/bug.php?format=xmlid=46944 that seems better for programmatical parsing. FYI: I've implemented the parsing using the rss xml ouput. In case some development is done on this side, please keep me in the loop :) Cheers, -- Sandro Tosi (aka morph, morpheus, matrixhasu) My website: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

What I need is a way to programmatically query a given php bugs to know its status, so we can updated the connected bugs in the Debian issue tracker. You want json result set of status/assigned/last updated/summary/... I think the rss xml format is fine enough. just let php-webmas...@lists.php.net know and it'll get fixed as soon as someone sees your mail (we can't keep up with the irrelevant traffic on intern...@...)

Could you please expand it a bit? is this a newer issue trackers? just an update? It's this: http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pear/Bugtracker/ And it's not new per se. It's a kind of fork by Pear folks at one time, which I then took and forked into it's own package and modified to be usable by all PHP, PECL and PEAR. (as standalone installations first) And Philip just sent an email about it on this list: http://news.php.net/php.internals/44782 I suggest you reply to that. :) --Jani -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP-DEV] are there alternate interfaces to the bug tracking system?
hi everyone, (if there's a better place to ask this, my apologies and feel free to redirect me!) does anyone know here if there is any machine-friendly interface to the php bug tracking system? in debian we have a service called bts-link[1] which we can use to track forwarded bugs in remote systems's (i.e. a bug reported in debian which has been linked with another bug such as one on bugs.php.net). for debian package maintainers this is a major boon since we can keep better track of bugs that have been fixed or otherwise addressed upstream. so what i'm wondering is: is there an easily parseable or structured interface (xmlrpc, soap, read-only JSON export, whatever) to the php.net bts that could be used to get a bug's information? or would such a bts-link service need to resort to scraping the page for a particular bug's status? thanks! sean [1] http://bts-link.alioth.debian.org/ ps - I'm cc'ing Sandro Tosi, who i believe could answer any questions you might have about the bts-link service in case you would only provide such access under certain conditions (he is not subscribed to this list). -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Just another question: may you please list me all the possible 'Status' field values? In particular we are interested in those 'Status'es that identify the bug as closed and wontfix.
