RE: [mylar-dev] Custom repository connector
|
Hi Igor,
The repository connector that should be used as an example is mylar.jira.
It is much smaller and relies almost entirely on our provisional
mylar.tasklist APIs and the jira-dashboard.tigris.org APIs (Java facade for
the JIRA server's SOAP APIs). We're continually pulling generic repository
functionality from mylar.bugzilla into mylar.tasklist, and making this
functionality available to JIRA and other connectors as we go.
As of the 0.5.2 release the Bugzilla Connector no longer parses HTML and
instead relies on Bugzilla's XML/RDF output. If you are interested in the
old HTML parsing code you could look into CVS history or into the source
archive:
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/mylar/src-archive/mylar-archive-0.5.1
.zip
My recommendation would be to try to create a thin Java API to your web app
(that screenscrapes if it has to). Once you've got the basic stuff working
like getting the results for a query then you can try starting to implement
a connector. Keep us posted on how it goes.
