- Tracker changed from Defect to Feature
- Subject changed from Dots in JSONP Callback handler to Extend JSONP callback handler syntax support
- Target version set to Candidate for next major release
According to json-p.org The proposed solution, allowed syntax could include these forms:
functionName({JSON});
obj.functionName({JSON});
obj["function-name"]({JSON});
For now, only the first one is partly supported whith functionName bein composed of digits and characters A to Z plus _ (see source:/trunk/lib/redmine/views/builders/json.rb@11272#L30).
Theoretically functionName should also be checked as being a valid javascript identifier name, thus allowing some Unicode characters, but this might look a bit overkill?

I would definitely agree that at least foo.bar(...) support should be added (which I assume is what this issue originally asked for specifically, based on the subject history).
Some JS libraries e.g. Dojo use a global namespace for their JSONP request support so that only one global variable is created instead of multiple, and currently the regex in http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/repository/entry/trunk/lib/redmine/views/builders/json.rb will strip periods, making Redmine's JSONP REST API unusable with these JS libraries.
Here's an example of the kind of function names Dojo's dojo/request/script module uses: dojo_request_script_callbacks.dojo_request_script0

Angular JS also uses object based JSONP callbacks.
Please support this ! :)

I added the dot to the regex, which at least fixes the obj.functionName({JSON}); example.

I just spent several hours implementing workarounds because Redmine does not adhere to the JSONP specification. I'm still not done... I'm using Angular JS like the user in comment #3. This issue is years old and has a link to a commit (comment #4) that contains a 1 line fix.
What needs to happen for this to be included in the next Redmine release.

Could we pretty please have this single character added to this line?
Just for your sanity here is a description of the regex;
// [^a-zA-Z0-9_.] // // Options: Case sensitive; ^$ match at line breaks; dot doesn’t match line breaks; Regex syntax only // // Match any single character that is NOT present in the list below and that is NOT a line break character (line feed) «[^a-zA-Z0-9_.]» // A character in the range between “a” and “z” (case sensitive) «a-z» // A character in the range between “A” and “Z” (case sensitive) «A-Z» // A character in the range between “0” and “9” «0-9» // A single character from the list “_.” «_.»

Perhaps someone with SVN skills would kindly submit my patch to the Redmine SVN repo.

One of reasons which pull request is bad is if source repository is deleted, diff is also deleted.
