Bug report regarding getting revisions:

Getting revisons by ID (on the latest ID) GET "​http://test-hmg.ckan.net/api/search/revision?since_revision=44aac9b6-ba24-43a8-87a1-f6923dc523ff"

Returns a whole load of stuff (it's also quite slow - about 10 seconds)

I'm expecting it to return just an empty array - am I doing something wrong here - if so could you clarify correct use of the API?

GET "​http://test-hmg.ckan.net/api/search/revision?since_time=2010-04-30T23:45" Returns the empty string - I'd expect an empty array ie []

GET "​http://test-hmg.ckan.net/api/search/revision?since_time=2010-04-31T23:45" Returns an internal server error 500 - I think it should probably be "bad Request" 400 (the date is invalid)

Various bugs I've been encountering:

• Autocomplete of tag names no longer works (no longer works on ​http://ckan.net/). Appears to be due to no longer have a routes for apiv2 (i'm seeing failing calls to: ​http://ckan.net/apiv2/package/autocomplete?callback=callback&incomplete=a)
• Incorrect url generated for API in page footer (e.g. ​http://ckan.net/rest/get_api) due to use of old 'rest' rather than new 'api'

Latter issue was masked by existence of 'default' routes:

   map.connect('/{controller}', action='index')
   map.connect('/:controller/{action}')
   map.connect('/{controller}/{action}/{id}')

Having these is, I think, bad practice as it is better to be explicit and we should therefore remove asap.

In addition I think we should be cautious about 'default' routes in core such as:

    map.connect('/api/rest/:register', controller='api', action='list',
        conditions=dict(method=['GET'])
        )

As it makes it harder for extensions to introduce their own APIs (here one could perhaps add something at /api/rest/{my-object} but only by using before_map rather than after_map).

We need to offer a strongly simplified version, read-only of CKAN under publicdata.eu, with a focus on its role as search engine instead of a data catalogue.

This ticket relates to work on the PDEU theme only!
