Description

Currently there is no support for this. But it's needed for clients who are interested in the diffs of a review request.

Testing Done

Includes a test.

reviewboard/webapi/urls.py (Diff revision 1)

I think I'd prefer that this just be /diff/.

Sorry, I didn't see this earlier but for some reason I use the account "mak" for this request instead of "mknittig", so I didn't get a mail. My GitHub Account is "mknittig".

Can you give me write access to the wiki at Google Code so I can document to API method? My Google account username is "markus@myd0.de".

Should work now.

Thanks, but I'll just noticed a bug. :-/ In urls.py I use "diff" and in tests.py I use "diffs". While "diff" is more consistent with the current API, logically "diffs" would be the better name...

Yeah, the naming is perhaps confusing, but I'd prefer consistency in this case. I don't think it's so bad, though I agree that diffs may be more correct if we were doing this from scratch.

Nice patch; I just did the same thing myself and was getting ready to submit it for review!

I have seen http 500 errors if you call "review_request.diffset_history.diffsets.all()" or ".latest()", and there are no diffsets.

The existing code typically does the following:

  public_diffsets = review_request.diffset_history.diffsets
  if public_diffsets.count() > 0:
    ...

My original code didn't have that code and was throwing 500 on some review requests.
I added that "count() > 0" check and haven't seen one since.

Christian, can you comment on whether this should be added?

Thanks all!

reviewboard/webapi/urls.py (Diff revision 2)

I'd say this should definitely be changed to "diffs".
