Andre Dietisheim commented on JBIDE-14744:
------------------------------------------

btw. I agreed with Clayton that they would not change Quickstart listings but rather provide changes in a new version (which translates to me to a new, additional url to get the listing):

(08:35:29 PM) adietish: clayton: but this being said, the quickstart not being API is problematic for us
(08:36:45 PM) adietish: clayton: no easy way to replace existing users. can only tell them to upgrade and this needs to be in a smooth way. Not good to simply break them on day X, should give them some time to ramp up

(08:37:48 PM) adietish: clayton: support for quickstart is planned for june this year, so I suggest we should think about what list of quickstart we deliver then. This should be authoritative for at least 1y from then on
(08:38:10 PM) adietish: clayton: see my prob?
(08:38:46 PM) clayton: adietish: can't say i disagree, we just have to work with what we have now.  quickstarts api can remain stable, but that doesn't mean that we won't have a newversion
(08:39:41 PM) adietish: clayton: sure, new added version works
(08:40:34 PM) adietish: clayton: whoever wants can get the freshest and latest Eclipse tooling. But we cant simply break GA-users and GA-version is our stable for 1y
(08:40:43 PM) clayton: yup

> For QuickStarts, brokers may choose to 
> a) enable community quickstarts 
>    (the URL you saw below, set by COMMUNITY_QUICKSTART_URL being a URL in /etc/openshift/broker.conf)
> b) enable their own list of quickstarts 
>    (a different url, /broker/rest/quickstarts, configured from /etc/openshift/quickstarts.json)
> c) disable the quickstarts link 
>    (delete /etc/openshift/quickstarts.json)
> To correctly fetch the quickstarts for a server, retrieve the API document
>   /broker/rest/api
> and look for the LIST_QUICKSTARTS link.  If it is present, you may retrieve quickstarts.  If it is absent, you should assume there are no quickstarts.
> Retrieving the list of quickstarts, unlike other REST API feed calls, is very specific:
> * API versioning is not supported
> * Only JSON is supported
> * The body of the response is slightly different than standard REST API feed results
> * If you encounter a parse error or an unexpected data value you are required to handle it gracefully by omitting the entry - the API may change without warning (although hopefully not)
> The format of the JSON response (in either a) or b) above) is:

> You should assume that arbitrary content could be injected into any of these fields and defend yourself against XSS appropriately.  You should also assume that the structure could be changed at any time.
> Cartridge spec:
> The cartridge spec is defined as either:
> a) a comma delimited list of cartridge name search conditions
> b) a string containing a JSON array
> If the leading character of the cartridge spec is '[', you must convert the cartridge spec to JSON and submit the value provided to the server on creation as the "cartridges" field.
> Otherwise, 
> 1) split the string by "," into "segments"
> 2) trim whitespace from each segment
> 3) split each segment by "|" into "matches" - these represent logical ORs
> 4) strip leading and trailing "*" characters
> 5) For each segment, return all cartridges that have a case-insensitive substring match on any of the "matches" in that segment for the user to select.
