Legacy JSON API Differences #233
Comments
|
About bugtrack_url: IIRC it was something added by the PyPI maintainers to help projects, but in parallel PEP 345 introduced Project-URL which was intended to cover source code repository, bug tracker, mailing list, etc. If PEP 426 or one of its companion keeps Project-URL (and maybe improves it with defined labels for common sites, e.g. "repository"), then this special case becomes redundant. You may want to keep it anyway to avoid breaking clients; I don’t know if they expect the key to be missing or the value to be null. |

Yea. In the UI the project urls and the few dedicated urls we have (homepage, bugtrack_url) are treated as just "special" project urls, but visually the same as the rest. This is primarily for backwards compat. |
|
If something is going to be removed, I'd do this as a next API version. |
|
PyPI also added the full releases list to the JSON dump to help mirrors. |

Interesting, regarding point 1, the warehouse code explicitly turns nulls into I don't recall why I implemented that in the Warehouse legacy code (except that XML-RPC didn't support explicit nulls for a very long time and I'm old). I'll remove it. The other changes are straight-forward and I'll address them. |

There's a parameter to xmlrpc to make it support None FWIW. Not sure if that's OK to do or not. |
