/latest API?

[farooqkz]

Hello.
I cannot find out where can I access /latest API(https://github.com/posativ/isso/blob/master/isso/views/comments.py#L1197). Trying isso_root/latest?limit=10 but getting 404 instead of JSON.
Using latest release from PyPI.
Any ideas?

Do you have the "latest-enabled" option enabled?

[farooqkz]

Nope I have not and now I see why it was throwing back 404 to me...

Actually I was looking for an API just for admin with which admin, and just admin, could iterate over comments and do something like verify or delete on all comments matching a filter. This way any filter matching will be done client side with JS rather than server side.

By the way, I saw that Github has marked me as contributor for this repo and I didn't remember what contributions I have made till I saw my PR :D

@farooqkz would you mind closing this?

You mean I close this one and open a separate issue for the question which I asked?

To answer your other question, afaik there is no explicit admin API, but rather admin uses the standard endpoints that the client also uses (/id/<action>), just using an admin cookie and a comment hash instead.

See e.g.
https://github.com/posativ/isso/blob/9e021cb6263e921ac519f52b82df3f66a297d3d1/isso/js/admin.js#L27-L33

So you can get a list of all comments via the latest API if you so desire and then filter them, get yourself an admin cookie and then delete/approve/whatever the respective comments. But why go to all that trouble when you can just edit the sqlite database directly?
