[User Testing] RPC

About

• Feature: RPC
• Route: https://localhost:8444/rpc

Checklist

• This feature testing stage has been completed.

Description

There have been some big changes to the RPC.

• The v query argument is now required.
• Removed support for versions 1 through 4.
  • This was announced deprecated over one month ago.
• The get-comment-form type has been removed.
  • This type is only useful for users editing comments via Javascript on the AUR website; forms cannot be submitted from different origins. This moves the RPC implementation closer to a completely public API and spec.

Users are now required to use version 5 and should refer to https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc for documentation in regards to it.

Known Bugs

#168 (closed) info type fields are included in search results, dramatically slowing the FastAPI search type.
