Description Jesse Glick 2000-12-05 17:58:37 UTC
I wanted to automate creating a bug list from Bugzilla and saving it to disk for
off-line perusal. Unfortunately this does not seem to be possible. buglist.cgi,
the normal search CGI, accepts GET requests with a list of criteria, which is
great. But the long-format bug listing is long_list.cgi according to source for
the page (the "Long Format" button); and its parameter is not the search
criteria, but rather a fixed list of bugs. So in order to automate getting the
long-format list, something would have to extract the bug numbers from
buglist.cgi by parsing it, and then pass this list to long_list.cgi. Why not
just let long_list.cgi accept GET requests with search criteria to begin with,
so that you could simply make up one URL that would provide all the search
results you wanted in long format? Better yet, merge the two CGIs, so that there
can be a checkbox on the query page for long format vs. short format.
