Time off estimate call has changed and broken the gem

[gorenje]

Hi,

It seems that something has changed @ bamboo causing this gem to fail:

client = Bamboozled.client( :subdomain => SOMEDOMAIN, :api_key => API_KEY)
client.employee.time_off_estimate(EMPLID, Date.today)

Raw Response of that (at least for me):

[{"timeOffType":"9","name":"Compensation ","units":"days","balance":"...","end":"2015-05-22"} ....

i.e. an array that does not have with_indifferent_access

So that causes an exception:

undefined method `with_indifferent_access' for #<Array:0x007fd133ec7eb0>

And then the response is parsed using XML which, in turn, throws up its hands with:

MultiXml::ParseError: Start tag expected, '<' not found

I dunno with this is related to us upgrading active_support (4.2.1) or whether the response format from bamboo has changed.

Interesting... I'm the original author of the gem, however I'm no longer at Skookum and I don't use Bamboo or have access to it anymore. Perhaps @moondev or @iamdustan might be able to help out.

Good luck!

@markrickert Thanks for headsup. For us it's not an issue since we're using the patched-with-a-hack version. Perhaps if others have this issue, we can get a confirmation and a better solution!

@gorenje thanks for reporting the issue 😃 I'm taking a look at this over the weekend. Would you mind pointing me to your patched version? Hopefully we can get a universal fix for everyone.

I'm having the same problem when I call client.time_off.requests:

Fatal error: Start tag expected, '<' not found at :1. (MultiXml::ParseError)

@enriikke my fix was this gorenje@d478a86

Thanks @gorenje & @pkananen we are putting together a roadmap for upgrading the gem and including additional functionality. I will work on a quick fix for this as well.

I'm having a similar error trying to do client.meta.fields
MultiXml::ParseError: Start tag expected, '<' not found

This is fixed in #40.
