582462 - Fix the URL in the <reviews> element

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: API, defect, P1)

Description

[Ben Parr [:bparr]]

In version 1.5 of the API, the text content of the <reviews> element is a URL. Currently, following this URL lands you on the main page for the add-on. It should instead lead you to the "Reviews for [Add-on Name]" page.

For example:

API result: https://services.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/api/1.5/addon/6622
API <reviews> URL: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6622/reviews/?src=api (ends up on main page for the add-on)
Expected Review Page: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/reviews/display/6622

What is the deadline for this fix?

Comment 2

[Dave Townsend [:mossop]]

I think so long as it is fixed by the time Firefox 4 is released that should be fine, so that would be around start of October.

Comment 3

[Benjamin Smedberg]

Dave says this doesn't need to block, although we still want it.

It looks like this somehow fixed itself.  I went through the steps to reproduce above and the URL from <reviews> in the API response lands on 'Reviews for DOM Inspector', as requested.

Did I miss something?  If so, please reopen.

The bug was probably filed while we were transitioning reviews from remora to zamboni.
