| Laney | what's the right invocation to change the owner of a git_repository from the API? | 14:44 |
| Laney | I tried setting 'owner' and calling lp_save() on all the things but it didn't get updated | 14:45 |
| cjwatson | That ought to work. Do you have a transcript? | 14:47 |
| Laney | I'll run it again. | 14:48 |
| cjwatson | You should just need to call lp_save on the repository | 14:48 |
| Laney | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/m4ZGPBFjNC/ | 14:49 |
| cjwatson | gits[0].lp_refresh() | 14:51 |
| cjwatson | Wait, what is gits in this case? | 14:52 |
| cjwatson | Can I have a more complete transcript? :P | 14:52 |
| cjwatson | I bet gits is a collection | 14:52 |
| Laney | It is, it's from getBranches() or something | 14:52 |
| cjwatson | Listify it first, or assign gits[0] to a variable | 14:53 |
| cjwatson | Otherwise the __getitem__ inside gits[0] does a separate fetch from the webservice each time and so forgets your changes | 14:53 |
| cjwatson | Bit of a gotcha with collections | 14:53 |
| Laney | Ahh, this is a peculiarity with LP programming that I'm not aware of | 14:53 |
| Laney | That works, thanks! | 14:53 |
| cjwatson | np, it's not at all obvious when you haven't encountered it before | 14:54 |
| Laney | Oh, but I've got to fix the subscribers too | 14:54 |
| cjwatson | You can call methods without this trick - it's only property assignments that are problematic | 14:55 |
| cjwatson | Though it may be a good idea anyway to avoid excessive webservice calls | 14:55 |
| cjwatson | https://help.launchpad.net/API/launchpadlib#Three_things_to_make_your_client_faster has a little trick to see what webservice calls are happening | 14:56 |
| Laney | That'll be useful, cheers | 15:00 |
| Laney | Good semantic use of HTTP error codes (409 in this case) | 15:01 |
| cjwatson | Yeah, the LP webservice is sort of what you get if you go all-out on REST design and kinda forget the performance bit | 15:02 |
