Zimki 1.10 released

Bill Hawes on Wed Mar 28 2007 09:00:00 GMT+0100 (GMT)

We've just released version 1.10 of Zimki. As well as fixing a number of bugs, we have made the following changes:

External APIs

zimki.file.publish method removed

We have removed the zimki.file.publish method from the Zimki external API. This is because it created a potential security risk for your realms.

Customer External API

There is a new external API available which allows you to manage your Zimki realms using external tools. The endpoint for this API is at https://www.zimki.com/api. You must authenticate using your registered email address and password.

The API documentation is at https://docs.zimki.com/CustomerExternalAPI.

We plan to release a number of desktop tools that take advantage of this feature in the near future. Watch this space…

JSON return type

Both the Zimki and Customer external APIs can return JSON as an alternative to XML - simply add a "_type=json" parameter to your request. See https://docs.zimki.com/ExternalAPI for more details.

Platform Changes

File implementation

Zimki files are now implemented as persistent instances of class zimki_file, and file publications as persistent instances of class zimki_publish. This means that you can set your own attributes on these instances.

Remote calls

Responses from zimki.remote.* calls now have a 'headers' property containing the response headers.

Portal Changes

Instance searching

There is now a search form on the instances page. You can enter an attribute name, a search clause and a value to search on. Results are paginated and pagination works across search results.

Realm backup

When backing up a realm, the backup file will now be named after your realm name.

Realm cloning

When cloning a realm, you must now identify the source realm by an API Key or API Key alias instead of realm id.
