How can I grab the code with a p4 client without having to use a browser file-by-file? workshop.perforce.com:1666 always responds with connection refused. The only place I've found that references how to connect is :http://wiki.workshop.perforce.com/wiki/How_to_Browse. The link sent in the email validation response is dead: http://public.perforce.com/wiki/How_to_Contribute

public.perforce.com:1666 should work.

I just double checked and the Workshop server appears to be up and happy. Are you connecting from behind a corporate firewall? I've seen a couple cases now where firewalls have prevented people from accessing the Workshop p4d.

I've also added a rule to properly handle those wiki links; I rejiggered some rewrite rules last week and I accidentally broke the old wiki links. Thanks for letting me know.

yeah, I'm def behind the corp mosquito net. I can't reach public.perforce.com on 1666 either.
I'll inquire with our IT folks. Thanks and thanks for fixing the links.

Just to confirm, our Corporate firewall was blocking the outbound connection for port 1666. Sorry for the confusion.

I am looking at p4dtg and jira 6.x. The docs say to enable RPC-Jira, but that plugin is deprecated. I'm having problems just finding that plugin. Atlassian says they are moving from SOAP to REST. Is there plans to switch to REST? https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/SOAP+and+XML-RPC+API+Deprecated+in+JIRA+6.0

Sorry for the slow response; I need to check with the dev team to see if the REST version is ready to publish. It should below; when were putting the finishing touches on it when I first pushed the DTG code. I'll check up and let you know!

The REST version will be available in November. I'll make sure that the Workshop is promptly updated at the same time.

can we also have a distro directory in https://swarm.workshop.perforce.com/files/guest/perforce_software/p4dtg-sdk that has the last bundled installer (perhaps with some kind of version number or patch version) and a tgz or zip of the source code that made that particular installer?
perhaps something looking like how sdp is doing it (other than they don't add a source bundle) like https://swarm.workshop.perforce.com/files/guest/perforce_software/sdp/dist While source is secondary and I guess if you don't want to do it, that's ok with me, I can get it out of perforce, provided there's some way to identify which versions are in a particular release label/rel stream), it would be nice for the installer versions for windows and *nix.

THen maybe have a way to tell people where to download the installer at if they are looking at the P4DtG-SDK project in the 'Overview -> about'

Completely agree. There's a lot of polish work we need to do for these projects; thankfully we have another set of hands joining us soon. I'll put these in our backlog.

Hi Matt,
Could you update the p4dtg source with the REST changes now that it has been out a while?

Most definitely. I'll work to get it out this week; sorry for the delay.

Hi Matt,

A gentle ping...

Sorry for that. It's live now. You can download the whole kit and caboodle here:
