| sil2100 | Hello! Looking for some LP API expertise: I would like to get the list of package uploads for a selected uploader, something like we have on the LP UI in the 'Uploaded packages' section of user info | 12:03 |
|---|---|---|
| sil2100 | Is there some better way than browsing through the whole publishing history and looking for certain people there? | 12:03 |
| sil2100 | I didn't see any API call that could do it per user | 12:04 |
| cjwatson | I'm not sure what a good approach there would be. The exact implementation of "Uploaded packages" is difficult to export since it returns a collection of `SourcePackageRelease`s rather than `SourcePackagePublishingHistory`s | 12:07 |
| cjwatson | Perhaps it should just be another parameter to archive.getPublishedSources | 12:08 |
| sil2100 | That would be useful, since source_package_publishing_history does have all the fields of interest | 12:08 |
| cjwatson | There are some subtleties there that aren't obvious from the field names; but broadly, yes | 12:09 |
| cjwatson | I also haven't checked whether we have sufficient indexes to do that query efficiently | 12:10 |
| sil2100 | cjwatson: in that case, maybe a bit unrelated to LP, but do you know of any other easy way I could access to data of which (or actually only how many) developers have been actively doing uploads in the recent x months> | 12:48 |
| cjwatson | sil2100: Have you considered just looking at the -changes list archives? | 12:49 |
| sil2100 | hm, I guess that could be a bit better than going through all those spph | 12:51 |
| cjwatson | there used to be a page with pie charts by uploader+release, but I've lost it | 12:54 |
| sil2100 | That one would be useful | 12:56 |
| cjwatson | http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~stefanor/ubuntu-activity/ but it only goes up to yakkety | 13:07 |
| sil2100 | cjwatson: big thanks! | 13:09 |
| sil2100 | This will be very helpful | 13:09 |
