Platforms

Platforms

Three provider classes, four platforms. Pick one to see its auth, its endpoints, what it maps and the traps.

Every platform answers the same nine resources with the same shapes. What changes underneath is the API, the header the token travels in, how a page says there is a next one, and which operations exist at all. The pages are short on purpose. The part worth reading is the gotcha list on each one.

REST v3 for everything except review threads, which need GraphQL for their resolved flag. The reference the others are measured against.

API v4 with Private-Token auth, project ids resolved and cached for you, iid as the number, and a group fallback for owners that are not users.


icon: i-simple-icons-gitea to: /platforms/gitea title: Gitea and Forgejo


API v1 with limit instead of per_page, empty strings and nulls where fields are missing, and Codeberg or any Forgejo through baseURL.


icon: i-lucide-server to: /platforms/gitbucket title: GitBucket


The GitHub provider pointed at a GitBucket /api/v3. What GitBucket does not serve fails with a sentence, not a 404.
