Hosting Service Resource¶

Added in 2.5

Provides information on registered hosting services.

Review Board has a list of supported remote hosting services for repositories and bug trackers. These hosting services contain the information needed for Review Board to link with any repositories hosted on that service and access content for display in the diff viewer.

This resource allows for querying that list and determining what capabilities of the hosting service can be used by Review Board.
