Get a list of discussions of an specific category with Vanilla API

jonaguera

I'm trying the Vanilla API plugin from kasperisager (https://github.com/kasperisager/vanilla-api), but I can't figure out how to obtain a list of discussions from an given category.

The most similar method is GET /category/:id , but only returns information of the category itself, and GET /discussion/:id , that returns information about the given discussions.

Is there anyway to obtain this list of discussions filtered by category with vanilla-api methods out of the box or will be necesary to extend the default functionalities?

Thanks in advance.

Use the simple api

http://vanillaforums.org/categories.json/developers

kasperisager API is working as you would expect

don;t have an answer but always good to post questions relating to plugins associated with plugin for easier reference later.

see:

and then post question from here:

http://vanillaforums.org/addon/api-application

or posting on github itself

restart a new discussion if necessary.

Without knowing the API I would suspect that you have to look at /categories/:id or /categories/:name in order to get the discussions. At least that's the way Vanilla works: http://vanillaforums.org/categories/developers

Thank you @peregrine, I posted here because I didn't be aware of the "Ask a question" link in the plugin page, but your post have been very "graphical"
