Add ability to search by hashtags

ChocolateyGUI should have the ability to search for hashtags which have been assigned to a particular package on Chocolatey.org

When I implemented this in ChocoPM, I did it by just searching the tags field as if I was search the Title or Package name fields. Do want to make it so that the user has to explicilty decided to search hashtags? Or give them the ability to only search tags?

Or possible give the ability to type something like:

Chocolatey #manager

And have the search be smart enough to apply Chocolatey to the Title field and manager to the tags field?

I like the idea of allowing the user to use

#hashtag

This is a well known nomenclature for hashtags, and I think it is something that we could support. Perhaps a watermark in the search box giving an example of what can be searched for?

Eeyup. That's the general idea.

Coolio :-)

Looks like this can be done by default using tag:<tag>. So whatever UI feature I add will basically just automatically set-or-append that to the search box.

In addition: the search should consider the package's IDs. E.g. when search for 'adb' I did not find the (installed) package 'Android Debug Bridge', although its package id is 'adb'. Reading RichiCoder1's comment above, I tried with id:adb but that returned nothing.
