/rest-service/reviews-v1?state

Methods

GET

Get all reviews as a list of ReviewData structures. Note that this may return a lot of data, so using /reviews-v1/filter/<filter> is usually better.

The state parameter is a comma separated list of state names from the set Draft, Approval, Review, Summarize, Closed, Dead, Rejected, Unknown.

request query parameters
parameter value description

state

string

only return reviews that are in these states.

available response representations:

  • 200 (reviews) [ expand ]

POST

Create a review from the given createReview element.

The sub-elements of the createReview element determine what type of review is created and how it is populated. The following rules govern which sub-elemnts can be present and how they are used in the review creation process

  • If the snippet element is specified a reviewData element must be supplied and no other elements may be supplied.
  • At least one of reviewData and detailedReviewData must be supplied. If both are supplied, the reviewers element of the detailedReviewData element is used. All other elements of detailedReviewData are ignored.
  • If the state element is present and has the value of "Review" in the reviewData (or detailedReviewData if used), then the review will be approved at creation, where allowed
  • The changesets and path elements can be supplied with either the reviewData or detailedReviewData elements.

The reponse includes the Location header that contains the URL of the newly created entity.

/rest-service/reviews-v1/{id}/addFile

resource-wide template parameters
parameter value description

id

string

Methods

POST

Adds a file to the review, optionally diff'ed to a second file.

In contrast to a patch, files can be either binary or text. Depending on the filetype, size and contents, Crucible may be able to display either parts, or the entire file in the review. It is possible to upload two versions of the file, in which case Crucible will display a diff and report that the file was modified. When only a single file is uploaded, Crucible treats the file as newly added.

This action returns the ReviewData document on success.

This resources uses multipart form-data to receive the file(s), character set indication and optional comments (it does not expect an XML document with embedded files, as that would require the client to first encode the files in Base64). Making a multipart form-data request can be done manually, but you will probably want to use a library.

During testing it is convenient to let your browser generate the requests using the test html form below: 

 <html>
 <head><title>Rest File Upload Test</title></head>
 <body>
     <form action="http://localhost:8060/rest-service/reviews-v1/CR-4/addFile" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
         <table>
             <tr>
                 <td>File (required):</td>
                 <td><input name="file" type="file"/></td>
             </tr>
 

             <tr>
                 <td>Diff to (optional):</td>
                 <td><input name="diffFile" type="file"/></td>
             </tr>
             <tr>
                 <td>Character Set (optional):</td>
                 <td><input name="charset" type="text" value="UTF-8"/></td>

                 <td><input type="text" name="comments"/></td>

Methods

GET

/rest-service/repositories-v1/{repo}/{revision}/{path:.*$}

resource-wide template parameters
parameter value description

revision

string

the SCM revision string.

repo

string

name of the Crucible SCM plugin repository.

path

string

the path of a file or versioned directory (note that versioned directories are not supported by all SCM plugins).
Methods

GET

Represents the details of a versioned entity (file or directory). This resource can be reached by following the file's self-link from a browse result.

Note that most responses support title expansion to minimize the costs of accessing the resources. Since file meta data is not always provided by SCM plugins, it is not expanded by default in the rest responses. Use title expansion to explicitly make Crucible include it.

The xml root element declares which elements are expandable (in this response: details and diffRevision). To expand both, use: ?expand=details,diffRevision

/rest-service/auth-v1

This resource is used to create session tokens.

Methods

/rest-service/auth-v1/login?userName &password

Methods

GET

This resource offers the ability for client applications to authenticate with Crucible and use the returned session identifier to make further calls without the need to send the caller's username and password every time.

Usage of this resource is not required, as Crucible's REST API also supports basic HTTP authentication whereby the caller embeds the username and password in the HTTP request headers of every call, making the process completely stateless.

Note that there is a potential problem with using authentication tokens in REST. Although session tokens are not set to expire, it is possible for users to explicitly purge all their authenticated sessions on the Crucible logout page. Doing that will also delete the sessions of any REST client that runs under that user's username. This will cause Crucible to treat further invocations with the deleted session token as anonymous (and will not result in an error). This in turn will restrict access to anonymous content only.
This issue is tracked under: CRUC-1452.

request query parameters
parameter value description

userName

string

the username.

password
