veans is unreleased and targets bleeding-edge Vikunja, so the CLI now
speaks the Huma-backed /api/v2 exclusively (v1 is frozen and the kanban
bucket CRUD veans relies on only exists on v2).
- Transport: base path /api/v1 -> /api/v2 in Do/DoRaw; add a
content-type-aware path (DoMerge for application/merge-patch+json).
- Pagination: drop the x-pagination-total-pages header reader; every v2
list returns the {items,total,page,per_page,total_pages} envelope.
Decode it with a generic Paginated[T]/doList[T] and page until
page >= total_pages. Previously-single-GET lists (views, buckets,
comments, bots) are enveloped too — unwrap .items.
- Verbs: creates flip PUT -> POST (projects, labels, tokens, bot users,
shares, task create, comments, relations, assignees, label-attach,
bucket create); the bucket-task move flips POST -> PUT with a bare
{"task_id":N} body (URL owns project/view/bucket); task update moves
to PATCH merge-patch with a partial body.
- Errors: parse the RFC 9457 problem+json body (detail/title/code)
instead of v1's {code,message}; the status -> output.Code mapping is
unchanged.
- Discovery probes /api/v2/info, which doubles as the "new enough" check.
- Label search param s -> q; add views_buckets_tasks_put to the bot's
projects scope so the move is authorized regardless of route-init order.
Tests and the veans agent guide are updated for the new paths, verbs and
envelope. Verified end-to-end against a local v2 server: init, create,
show, list, claim, update and prime all work.
The 30s timeout on the client.New HTTPClient was hard-coded and
opaque. Long-running paginated reads against slow networks were
tripping it with no escape hatch.
Lift the value into a named constant and let .veans.yml override it
via a new optional http_timeout field (Go duration syntax, e.g.
"60s", "5m"). The field has omitempty so a freshly-written
.veans.yml from `veans init` doesn't surface the knob — operators
who need to tune it can hand-edit, but it stays out of the way for
the common case.
Runtime loader applies the override after client.New if set;
bootstrap- and login-time clients (built before .veans.yml exists)
keep the default.
The project picker used to require at least one pre-existing project
and would otherwise hard-error: "no projects visible to this user —
create one in the Vikunja UI first". Now it always offers an extra
numbered entry "Create a new project" and, when the user picks it,
prompts for a title (required) + identifier (optional). Empty-list
case routes straight to creation.
Backed by a new client.CreateProject(ctx, *Project) method (`PUT
/projects`); the e2e harness now uses that instead of the raw c.Do
call it did before.
Also fixed a latent bufio bug in StdPrompter.ReadLine that this work
surfaced: every call created a fresh bufio.Reader, which read-ahead a
buffer and threw it away on return. Second+ prompts read empty. Reuse
one buffered reader on the StdPrompter instance.
The previous init flow took whatever the user typed for --server and
called GET <url>/api/v1/info on it. If the user typed
"vikunja.example.com" (no scheme), or pasted the URL with /api/v1 in
it (double-suffix), or pointed at a localhost install on the default
:3456 port without typing the port, we'd hand back a raw HTTP error.
New `client.DiscoverServer` ports the frontend's
helpers/checkAndSetApiUrl.ts discovery: probe a small ordered set of
plausible bases for /api/v1/info, return the first one that returns
parseable Info. Candidate order:
1. scheme://host[:port]/path (as the user typed it)
2. scheme://host:3456/path (default API port)
3. opposite scheme of (1)
4. opposite scheme of (2)
Heuristics:
- Missing scheme → https for public hosts, http for localhost /
127.0.0.1 / [::1] (matches most CLIs' behaviour)
- Trailing /api/v1 from a pasted URL is stripped before probing, so
we don't double up to /api/v1/api/v1/info
- Trailing slashes normalized
Errors now list everything we tried + the last underlying network
error, so the user can see why a URL failed instead of just
"GET /info: connection refused":
veans: VALIDATION_ERROR: couldn't find a Vikunja instance reachable
from "vikunja.example.com" — tried:
- https://vikunja.example.com/api/v1/info
- https://vikunja.example.com:3456/api/v1/info
- http://vikunja.example.com/api/v1/info
- http://vikunja.example.com:3456/api/v1/info
last error: dial tcp: lookup vikunja.example.com: no such host
bootstrap.Init now defers URL canonicalisation to DiscoverServer and
caches the matched info from the probe (no second /info round-trip).
Unit tests cover the candidate-builder across the common shapes:
bare hostname, localhost, /api/v1-suffixed paste, explicit port,
subpath install, 127.0.0.1:3456, trailing slash. e2e green.
