Task:Download client for extras-applications/REST-API

The REST-API to fetch the content is based on the content part of the open collaboration services API. Right now the following calls are implemented:

CATEGORIES

The categories API is fully implemented. An example for the OS2008:

.../categories?parent=OS2008 :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ocs>
   <meta>
       <status>ok</status>
       <message></message>
       <totalitems>16</totalitems>
   </meta>
   
       <category>
           <id>id</id>
           <name>Multimedia</name>
       </category>
       <category>
           <id>id</id>
           <name>Games</name>
       </category>
       ...
       <category>
           <id>id</id>
           <name>Travel</name>
       </category>
   
</ocs>

LIST

The idea of this call is to get a list regarding to the arguments, given in the specification. The following arguments are implemented:

• search: searches for a specified keyword
• categories: filters the list by the specified category
• page: content page
• pagesize: items per page

Further the list of fields, which are returned by the request are the ones you find in the example:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ocs>
   <meta>
       <status>ok</status>
       <message></message>
       <totalitems>1</totalitems>
   </meta>
   
       <content>

           <id>id</id>
           <name>name</name>
           <version>1.0</version>
           <changed>2009-05-06T12:05:13+0000</changed>
           <created>2009-05-06T12:05:13+0000</created>
           <downloads>0</downloads>
           <score>0</score>
