608481 - Migrate updateInfo to python

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Public Pages, defect, P3)

Description

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

We let authors provide some release notes to end users in the add-on management pane in Fx.  There are some details at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Extension_Versioning,_Update_and_Compatibility (see the "Providing Details about Updates" section).

These are currently served from PHP:

http://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/addons/trunk/site/app/controllers/versions_controller.php?view=markup#l79

and

http://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/addons/trunk/site/app/views/versions/update_info.thtml?view=markup

An example page is at (note the capital I):

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/versions/updateInfo/95584

We want to start serving this from Python at a URL like:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4354/versions/1.01/updateinfo

This bug includes:
- building views and templates
- redirecting PHP style URLs to the new URL style
- tests
- since bug 534646 is fixed, I think we can nl2br.  CCing mossop for assurances

Fixed in commit https://github.com/jbalogh/zamboni/commit/5d643d5165b95e0183eb5bb4b85fc2690d75ec28

As I understand it, the URL will need to be added to the Django side of the Apache config to test.
