xml used by rest API is invalid

Description

The xml format used by REST API to insert a bug seem to be invalid. In forum page : http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/17070 an example show the following :

<issue>
<project_id>1</project_id>
<tracker_id>1</tracker_id>
<subject>test2</subject>
<description>desc1gsdfgsdg</description>
<custom_field_values>
<1>test</1>
</custom_field_values>
</issue>

Except that this XML code is invalid. Indeed:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-xml-20081126/#NT-NameStartChar
specify that every node should start by a char within : 

    NameStartChar       ::=       ":" | [A-Z] | "_" | [a-z] | [#xC0-#xD6] | [#xD8-#xF6] | [#xF8-#x2FF] | [#x370-#x37D] | [#x37F-#x1FFF] | [#x200C-#x200D] | [#x2070-#x218F] | [#x2C00-#x2FEF] | [#x3001-#xD7FF] | [#xF900-#xFDCF] | [#xFDF0-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#xEFFFF]

The result is that you cannot generate xml with DOM API. Currently, I use DOM but with a very bad workaround : 

$aElem = $aXmlDoc->createElement("_TOREMOVE_1");
(...)
$aXmlOut = str_replace("_TOREMOVE_","",$aXmlDoc->saveXML($aRoot));

Can you try to fix it ?

  • Status changed from New to Resolved
  • Target version set to 1.0.5
  • Affected version (unused) set to 1.0.4
  • Resolution set to Fixed
  • Affected version set to 1.0.4

Fixed in r4481. You can now use the piece of xml that the API returns to update custom fields:

<custom_fields>
  <custom_field id="1">
    <value>Foo</value>
  </custom_field>
  ...
</custom_fields>

If #6403 needed to be scheduled for 1.1.0, Shouldn't this issue be to 1.1.0 too?

You're right. No feedback, I think it can wait 1.1.

The Example is bad, good one : 

<custom_fields type="array">
  <custom_field id="1">
    <value>Foo</value>
  </custom_field>
  ...
</custom_fields>

I just tried the following input


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<issue>
 <id>3273</id>
 <subject>ch.elexis.base.ch.legacy.feature.feature.group</subject>
 <description/>
 <start_date>2014-08-20T00:00:00+02:00</start_date>
 <project_id>0</project_id>
 <tracker_id>0</tracker_id>
 <custom_fields type="array">
   <custom_field id="2" name="Abostatus">
     <value>EXPIRED</value>
   </custom_field> 
 </custom_fields>
 <project id="3" name="Praxis Dr. Mustermann"/>
 <tracker id="4" name="Service"/>
</issue>

where the custom field is an enumeration, the value however is not updated to the provided EXPIRED.

This is Redmine 2.4.3.stable
