Homepage with old value
Recently a project I manage changed its homepage, so I updated in Ohloh.
https://www.ohloh.net/p/marmotta
But then I realized RDFohloh was not reflecting such change:
http://rdfohloh.wikier.org/project/marmotta
And I just manually checked and the api is returning the old value for the hompage (others, such as download page, were correclty updated):
https://www.ohloh.net/p/623297.xml?api_key=...
Could you please clarify me where the issue could be?
Thanks in advance.
hello?
Hi Sergio;
Thanks for the question and I apologize for the confusion. Looking at the Project XML package through the API (documentation: https://github.com/blackducksw/ohloh_api/blob/master/reference/project.md), one notes that the managers of the project are not included in the API.
The listing at wikier.org is showing contributors, which are available through the Contributor Fact API (https://github.com/blackducksw/ohlohapi/blob/master/reference/contributorfact.md)
Example: https://www.ohloh.net/p/623297/contributors.xml?api_key=...
Hope that helps to clear things up a bit.
Sorry Peter, but I do not understand what your answer has to to with my problem...which can be summarized saying that the field homepage_url from the api still contains an old value, which I'm not sure where it comes from since the project page at oholoh.net already render the updated one.
Wow, Sergio; my apologies. I completely misread your question. I see your point -- you are correct. The Homepage URL in the UI is http://marmotta.apache.org while the homepage_url returned in the API is http://marmotta.incubator.apache.org and they should be the same. Looking into it.
Sergio; there is indeed a bug, thanks for calling to our attention. I'm writing up a ticket and will fix it.
Sergio: the fix has been made and is in review.
OK, thanks, let me know when the patch would be applied to the public api.
looks that in the meantime the issue has been solved, now the data returned from the api is the right one:
http://rdfohloh.wikier.org/project/marmotta
thanks!
