NAME

RT::Client::REST::Transaction -- this object represents a transaction.

SYNOPSIS

  my $transactions = $ticket->transactions;

  my $count = $transactions->count;
  print "There are $count transactions.\n";

  my $iterator = $transactions->get_iterator;
  while (my $tr = &$iterator) {
      print "Id: ", $tr->id, "; Type: ", $tr->type, "\n";
  }

DESCRIPTION

A transaction is a second-class citizen, as it does not exist (at least from the current REST protocol implementation) by itself. At the moment, it is always associated with a ticket (see parent_id attribute). Thus, you will rarely retrieve a transaction by itself; instead, you should use transactions() method of RT::Client::REST::Ticket object to get an iterator for all (or some) transactions for that ticket.

ATTRIBUTES

id

Numeric ID of the transaction.

creator

Username of the user who created the transaction.

parent_id

Numeric ID of the object the transaction is associated with.

type

Type of the transactions. Please referer to RT::Client::REST documentation for the list of transaction types you can expect this field to contain. Note that there may be some transaction types not (dis)covered yet.

old_value

Old value.

new_value

New value.

field

Name of the field the transaction is describing (if any).

attachments

I have never seen it set to anything yet. (I will some day investigate this).

content

Actual content of the transaction.

description

Human-readable description of the transaction as provided by RT.

data

Not sure what this is yet.

METHODS

RT::Client::REST::Transaction is a read-only object, so you cannot store() it. Also, because it is a second-class citizen, you cannot search() or count() it -- use transactions() method provided by RT::Client::REST::Ticket.

retrieve

To retrieve a transaction, attributes id and parent_id must be set.

INTERNAL METHODS

rt_type

Returns 'transaction'.
