I thought I would try an interactive text-mode client for Launchpad bugs, in the hope that it would be either faster, or easier to add new features to than the web ui. This would overlap a bit with bughugger, but bughugger seems not so feature complete, and text stuff is perhaps easier to prototype than a gui.
It's now in <https://edge.launchpad.net/hydrazine>, and it does work enough to do some bug operations: pillar bzr select_new # shows the first new bug status confirmed description open # in a browser tags +dirstate importance low title blah blah comment blah blah description next I think there is still some potential, but it's not quite as good as I hoped, mostly because API calls (from Australia) are very slow, commonly more than 2 seconds each. Doing an api call is not noticeably faster than opening the corresponding web page, and one can manually overlap network operations in a browser by opening multiple tabs. Still, some of this can be avoided by changing the app to just make fewer rpc calls, and after that perhaps doing them in the background. <https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/lazr.restful/+bug/336866> bites quite a lot when you try to make multiple changes to a bug in quick succession. If anyone cares to try it or to propose merges to add more features, feel free... -- Martin <http://launchpad.net/~mbp/> _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
