girder_client 3.0.0a6 and girder 2.5, KeyError: 'release' on upload

Support
1

Hello,

I try to use the python girder_client version 3.0.0a6.dev15 to communicate with a girder server version 2.5. My version of python is 3.7.

I have an error when trying to upload a file on the server, using either uploadFileToFolder or uploadFileToItem method.

The error is the following:

    9 || Traceback (most recent call last):
    8 ||   File "test.py", line 7, in <module> 
    7 ||     fileGirder = client.uploadFileToFolder(...)
    6 ||   File ".../girder_client-3.0.0a6.dev15-py3.7.egg/girder_client/__init__.py", line 1006, in uploadFileToFolder
    5 ||     progressCallback)

  18  || KeyError: 'release'

In my case, the result of self.get('system/version'), line 1 is:

 {'SHA': '582567eb86ec6518281c758b3870c0bcac1afd82', 'apiVersion': '2.5.0', 'date': '2019-03-01T17|28| 09+0000', 'git': True, 'serverStartDate': '2019-03-12T16:50:59.381648+00:00', 'shortSHA': '582567e'}

It does not contains the field release as required.

In order to reproduce, you can try this little python example:

import girder_client as gc

client = gc.GirderClient(apiUrl = 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v1')
client.authenticate(apiKey = '<apiKey>')                                                                                                                                         
temp_folderId = '<rootFolderId>'                                                                                                                                                                       
folderGirder = client.loadOrCreateFolder('newFolder', temp_folderId, 'folder')                                                                                                                                  
fileGirder = client.uploadFileToFolder(folderGirder['_id'], '<fileToUpload>')

Is girder_client 3.0 not compatible with girder 2.5 ?

Remarque:

Replacing

self._serverVersion = self.get('system/version')['release'].split('.', 3)

by

self._serverVersion = self.get('system/version')['apiVersion'].split('.', 3)

solve the issue in my case. Not sure it would work with newer girder version though.

Thanks for reporting. I submitted a fix at https://github.com/girder/girder/pull/2976 that should go in before the final release.
