Diaspora API Dev Progress Report 15

It’s been two weeks since my last Diaspora API Dev Progress report but that’s not because nothing has been going on.  Between the RubyConf 2018 attendance last week and this week being a holiday week there was definitely a drop off in how much development time I put into Diaspora, and therefore mostly into the API.  However over that time there has been some development progress:

• All of the previous work has been successfully merged down into the main API branch.
• The Contacts API is feature complete with full tests and the completed test harness
• The Users API is feature complete with full tests and test harness with the exception of the User Contacts API method.  That method was supposed to be able to return another user’s contacts if that user allowed that.  However that feature no longer exists in Diaspora so I believe it is extraneous.  If that’s agreed upon then this is feature complete and ready to go.

This week I should be able to apply a lot more development effort than I have been able to the past couple of weeks.  Hopefully that translates into forward progress on some more endpoints.  The trend seems to be that they are getting more difficult to knock out so my velocity is slowing.  I guess it’s better than being stymied in the beginning.
