Widen the scope of difference sessions
Reported by Ben Hood | 2010-09-27 10:48:50 UTC | in 0.8
ATM a difference session is scoped on a pair. To makes things easier for the client, the API should accept either:
- A list of pairs to include
- A list of pair groups to include
- A combination of both
- Or no argument, which means that every known pair will be returned

All the underlying plumbing for this is now complete - the Session Manager internally supports this, as do the various caches. All that is necessary to complete is to update the REST API to support sending alternative configurations.

Hi,
Given that the REST API currently defines this as the way to create a session...
POST /diffs/pairs/{pair}
...it would be useful if the session-creation URL was something generic, such as:
POST /diffs/sessions/new
You would then send your parameters: pairs, groups, or nothing for all known pairs. You could keep the first URL for the times when you want to monitor one pair.

This actually has been changed already - perhaps we just haven't regenerated the docs. As of yesterdays, sessions are now created with a POST against /diffs/sessions, providing a pairs= query parameter to indicate the pairs you are interested in.

The docs have been regenerated and committed subsequent to this API
change. Jonathan, are you able to compile the site with Jekyll? -

To get this ticket closed down, for now we'll defer the support for subscribing to groups (pushed to #50). The interface for now will support subscribing to everything (by not specifying pairs) or to a list of pairs.
