This is the standard API for external programs that want to interact
with Bugzilla. It provides various methods in various modules.
-Currently the only method of accessing the API is via XML-RPC. The XML-RPC
-standard is described here: L<http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec>
-
-The endpoint for Bugzilla WebServices is the C<xmlrpc.cgi> script in
-your Bugzilla installation. For example, if your Bugzilla is at
-C<bugzilla.yourdomain.com>, then your XML-RPC client would access the
-API via: C<http://bugzilla.yourdomain.com/xmlrpc.cgi>
+You can interact with this API via
+L<XML-RPC|Bugzilla::WebService::Server::XMLRPC> or
+L<JSON-RPC|Bugzilla::WebService::Server::JSONRPC>.
=head1 CALLING METHODS
-Methods are called in the normal XML-RPC fashion. Bugzilla does not currently
-implement any extensions to the standard method of XML-RPC method calling.
-
Methods are grouped into "packages", like C<Bug> for
L<Bugzilla::WebService::Bug>. So, for example,
-L<Bugzilla::WebService::Bug/get>, is called as C<Bug.get> in XML-RPC.
+L<Bugzilla::WebService::Bug/get>, is called as C<Bug.get>.
=head1 PARAMETERS
-In addition to the standard parameter types like C<int>, C<string>, etc.,
-XML-RPC has two data structures, a C<< <struct> >> and an C<< <array> >>.
+The Bugzilla API takes the following various types of parameters:
+
+=over
-=head2 Structs
+=item C<int>
-In Perl, we call a C<< <struct> >> a "hash" or a "hashref". You may see
-us refer to it that way in the API documentation.
+Integer. May be null.
-In example code, you will see the characters C<{> and C<}> used to represent
-the beginning and end of structs.
+=item C<double>
-For example, here's a struct in XML-RPC:
+A floating-point number. May be null.
- <struct>
- <member>
- <name>fruit</name>
- <value><string>oranges</string></value>
- </member>
- <member>
- <name>vegetable</name>
- <value><string>lettuce</string></value>
- </member>
- </struct>
+=item C<string>
-In our example code in these API docs, that would look like:
+A string. May be null.
- { fruit => 'oranges', vegetable => 'lettuce' }
+=item C<dateTime>
-=head2 Arrays
+A date/time. Represented differently in different interfaces to this API.
+May be null.

+True or false.
+
+=item C<array>
+
+An array. There may be mixed types in an array.
In example code, you will see the characters C<[> and C<]> used to
represent the beginning and end of arrays.
-For example, here's an array in XML-RPC:
+In our example code in these API docs, an array that contains the numbers
+1, 2, and 3 would look like:
- <array>
- <data>
- <value><i4>1</i4></value>
- <value><i4>2</i4></value>
- <value><i4>3</i4></value>
- </data>
- </array>
+ [1, 2, 3]
-In our example code in these API docs, that would look like:
+=item C<struct>
- [1, 2, 3]
+A mapping of keys to values. Called a "hash", "dict", or "map" in some
+other programming languages. We sometimes call this a "hash" in the API
+documentation.
+
+The keys are strings, and the values can be any type.
+
+In example code, you will see the characters C<{> and C<}> used to represent
+the beginning and end of structs.
+
+For example, a struct with an "fruit" key whose value is "oranges",
+and a "vegetable" key whose value is "lettuce" would look like:
+
+ { fruit => 'oranges', vegetable => 'lettuce' }

-B<All> Bugzilla WebServices functions take their parameters in

+The class structure of these files is a little strange, and this README
+explains it.
+
+Our goal is to make JSON::RPC and XMLRPC::Lite both work with the same code.
+(That is, we want to have one WebService API, and have two frontends for it.)
+
+The problem is that these both pass different things for $self to WebService
+methods.
+
+When XMLRPC::Lite calls a method, $self is the name of the *class* the
+method is in. For example, if we call Bugzilla.version(), the first argument
+is Bugzilla::WebService::Bugzilla. So in order to have $self
+(our first argument) act correctly in XML-RPC, we make all WebService
+classes use base qw(Bugzilla::WebService).
+
+When JSON::RPC calls a method, $self is the JSON-RPC *server object*. In other
+words, it's an instance of Bugzilla::WebService::Server::JSONRPC. So we have
+Bugzilla::WebService::Server::JSONRPC inherit from Bugzilla::WebService.

+=head1 NAME
+
+Bugzilla::WebService::Server::JSONRPC - The JSON-RPC Interface to Bugzilla
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This documentation describes things about the Bugzilla WebService that
+are specific to JSON-RPC. For a general overview of the Bugzilla WebServices,
+see L<Bugzilla::WebService>.
+
+Please note that I<everything> about this JSON-RPC interface is
+B<UNSTABLE>. If you want a stable API, please use the
+C<XML-RPC|Bugzilla::WebService::Server::XMLRPC> interface.
+
+=head1 JSON-RPC
+
+Bugzilla supports both JSON-RPC 1.0 and 1.1. We recommend that you use
+JSON-RPC 1.0 instead of 1.1, though, because 1.1 is deprecated.
+
+At some point in the future, Bugzilla may also support JSON-RPC 2.0.
+
+The JSON-RPC standards are described at L<http://json-rpc.org/>.
+
+=head1 CONNECTING
+
+The endpoint for the JSON-RPC interface is the C<jsonrpc.cgi> script in
+your Bugzilla installation. For example, if your Bugzilla is at
+C<bugzilla.yourdomain.com>, then your JSON-RPC client would access the
+API via: C<http://bugzilla.yourdomain.com/jsonrpc.cgi>
+
+Bugzilla only allows JSON-RPC requests over C<POST>. C<GET> requests
+(or any other type of request, such as C<HEAD>) will be denied.
+
+=head1 PARAMETERS
+
+For JSON-RPC 1.0, the very first parameter should be an object containing
+the named parameters. For example, if you were passing two named parameters,
+one called C<foo> and the other called C<bar>, the C<params> element of
+your JSON-RPC call would look like:
+
+ "params": [{ "foo": 1, "bar": "something" }]
+
+For JSON-RPC 1.1, you can pass parameters either in the above fashion
+or using the standard named-parameters mechanism of JSON-RPC 1.1.
+
+C<dateTime> fields are represented as an integer number of microseconds
+since the Unix epoch (January 1, 1970 UTC). They are always in the UTC
+timezone.
+
+All other types are standard JSON types.
+
+=head1 ERRORS
+
+All errors thrown by Bugzilla itself have 100000 added to their numeric
+code. So, if the documentation says that an error is C<302>, then
+it will be C<100302> when it is thrown via JSON-RPC.
+
+Errors less than 100000 are errors thrown by the JSON-RPC library that
+Bugzilla uses, not by Bugzilla.

+=head1 NAME
+
+Bugzilla::WebService::Server::XMLRPC - The XML-RPC Interface to Bugzilla
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This documentation describes things about the Bugzilla WebService that
+are specific to XML-RPC. For a general overview of the Bugzilla WebServices,
+see L<Bugzilla::WebService>.
+
+=head1 XML-RPC
+
+The XML-RPC standard is described here: L<http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec>
+
+=head1 CONNECTING
+
+The endpoint for the XML-RPC interface is the C<xmlrpc.cgi> script in
+your Bugzilla installation. For example, if your Bugzilla is at
+C<bugzilla.yourdomain.com>, then your XML-RPC client would access the
+API via: C<http://bugzilla.yourdomain.com/xmlrpc.cgi>
+
+=head1 PARAMETERS
+
+C<dateTime> fields are the standard C<dateTime.iso8601> XML-RPC field. They
+should be in C<YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS> format (where C<T> is a literal T).
+
+All other fields are standard XML-RPC types.
+
+=head2 How XML-RPC WebService Methods Take Parameters
+
+All functions take a single argument, a C<< <struct> >> that contains all parameters.
+The names of the parameters listed in the API docs for each function are the
+C<< <name> >> element for the struct C<< <member> >>s.
+
+=head1 EXTENSIONS TO THE XML-RPC STANDARD
+
+=head2 Undefined Values
+
+Normally, XML-RPC does not allow empty values for C<int>, C<double>, or
+C<dateTime.iso8601> fields. Bugzilla does--it treats empty values as
+C<undef> (called C<NULL> or C<None> in some programming languages).
+
+Bugzilla also accepts a type called C<< <nil> >>, which is always considered
+to be C<undef>, no matter what it contains.
+
