I have created a WebAPIResource extension based upon the instructions in
https://www.reviewboard.org/docs/manual/2.0/extending/extensions/webapi/
which is called based upon the user clicking on a menu item which was
created by ReviewRequestDropdownActionHook.
How do I actually do the POST call?
I tried just the usual jQuery $.post(...), but
djblets/webapi/resources.base.py tries to get the "model" and
"uri_object_keys" and fails since they are not part of the post data. It
looks like I need to create a view and model by deriving from
Backbone.View.extend Backbone.Model.extend, but I haven't found any concise
examples that I can understand well enough to use as a template.
My use case:
1. Based upon a UI event, post to the WebAPIResource
2. In the WebAPIResource.create method:
1. Lookup current review, post a comment based upon the approval
request (similar to a ship-it comment)
2. Log vote into a new database model
3. Query the existing votes and if everything looks good, trigger a
merge of the change or rejection email
Note that I'm not a Javascript or web programmer since my background is C++
and Python, so I'm sorry if my question is elementary.
Regards,
Eric
