`EpicsApi` missing the ability to list epics using filters

[hsebouai]

Right now the EpicApi class does not have a method that accept some kind of EpicFilter that reflect the query parameters that are documented here

Is there any plan to add that ability in the foreseeable future?

I guess this one is not included yet in the versions released this morning (6.0.0-rc.2 and 5.3.0).

I added quite a lot of Epic-related stuff, but I don't remember having added that.

Thank you for the latest release 5.3.0.

I've checked it. and indeed there is no filter for epics yet.

Have a look at the PR #1005

You can use jitpack to test in advance, as I did in my EpicsScript.java script.

I created a tag in my fork in my fork: 5.3.0-jmini.3, to test the PR and have a fixed version created by jitpack.

Usage with gradle:

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven {
        url "https://jitpack.io"
        content {
            includeGroup "com.github.jmini"
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    // ...
    implementation 'com.github.jmini:gitlab4j-api:5.3.0-jmini.3'
    // ...
}

Usage with maven:

<repositories>
  <repository>
    <id>jitpack.io</id>
    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
  </repository>
</repositories>

<dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.unblu</groupId>
    <artifactId>gitlab4j-api</artifactId>
    <version>5.3.0-jmini.3</version>
  </dependency>
  <!-- ... -->
</dependencies>

Usage with jbang:

The example script uses Jbang where loading the dependency is really easy. You just need to declare this dependency:

//DEPS https://github.com/jmini/gitlab4j-api/tree/5.3.0-jmini.3

Instead of:

//DEPS org.gitlab4j:gitlab4j-api:5.2.0

And then Jbang does the work of adding the additional repository for you.
