API2 collection -> getassets: Why no sort order?

1

Hi,

in the Radzuna Backend, you can sort the assets within a collection. That’s great, but the sort order isn’t within the API output of getassets !?

This is the actual columns list:
[“ID”,“FILENAME”,“FOLDER_ID”,“FOLDER_NAME”,“EXTENSION”,“EXTENSION_THUMB”,“VIDEO_IMAGE”,“SIZE”,“WIDTH”,“HEIGHT”,“FILENAME_ORG”,“KIND”,“DESCRIPTION”,“KEYWORDS”,“PATH_TO_ASSET”,“CLOUD_URL”,“CLOUD_URL_ORG”,“DATEADD”,“DATECHANGE”,“SUBASSETS”,“LOCAL_URL_ORG”,“LOCAL_URL_THUMB”,“RENDITION_ID”,“RENDITION_URL”,“COLORSPACE”,“XDPI”,“YDPI”,“UNIT”,“MD5HASH”,“responsecode”,“totalassetscount”,“calledwith”]

It misses kinda “sort” or “order” field.
Would you mind to implement it?

Thank you. However we are not implementing this for now. Sine this is the
API you get the result data and can sort it in your app.

Thanks for the fast reply.

However, the saved sort order within a collection (it exists in the database!) is available and ready to use, why not exporting it!? I don’t get the idea here why you decline to implement it!? It’s a necessary feature to have slideshows (=> widgets) in the correct order. The external apps should get the sort order, which is made by the collections’ author to work with it.

It would be a really helpful addition, please consider to implement it anyway.

Razuna is available under an open source license. One of the benefits is
that you have access to the code and can change it to your needs. Just
saying if you can’t wait until we change something.
