Placeholder post for API notes and feedback to go on!

Hi! I'm playing with the API and I have some (disjointed) feedback. I don't want to cram it all into one post, so consider this a root/placeholder, I'll thread it add the "issues" as replies.

When I'm calling http://www.momiji.hack.dreamwidth.net/api/v1/journals/annathecrow/tags I am getting the tags twice, and the first list looks messed up.

First:

$VAR1 = {
          'security_level' => 'public',
          'display' => '1',
          'security' => {
                          'private' => 0,
                          'groups' => {},
                          'public' => 1,
                          'protected' => 0
                        },
          'name' => 'barbara gordon',
          'uses' => 1
        };

Second:

{
      "_id" : "33",
      "_type" : "TagDetail",
      "security_counts" : {
         "public" : 1
      },
      "url" : "http://annathecrow.momiji.hack.dreamwidth.net/tag/barbara+gordon",
      "visibility" : "public",
      "use_count" : 1,
      "name" : "barbara gordon"
   },

Maybe a leftover var dump?

Yep, got it in one - the offending line is gone in the code, though it may not vanish from display until the next time I restart Apache.

Is/will there be a way to get comments for an entry? Right now I can get a list of entries for a journal, and the contents of an entry, but not the comments.

Comment stuff in general (outside of inbox notifs) is tbd right now - there will definitely be a way to get comments on your own entries, and there will hopefully be a way to get comments on other people's entries, but comment pulls can be more server-intensive and we have to work out what people expect for privacy (because it would be really easy to, for instance, download someone else's entire journal that way), so there's a bunch of boring high-level discussions that need to happen first.

Feedback is a great Christmas present, okay :D
