Search packages

Open Seanld opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Need to add new functionality: the ability to search packages in your list by running a command like latte search <package-name> and it will scan all of your repositories in the cache for a repository of that name.

Adding this may require having a package index file somewhere inside of the host server, unless there's some way to scan files on the host sever remotely without needing a special file with all packages listed inside explicitly.

This would be useful; another thing I'd love to see would be the ability to search with "*" to list all packages (may be useful for scripts that utilize Latte)

@cyanisaac like latte search *? To list all packages that you can install based on your repositories?

Yes. Alternatively some kind of list command. It could be useful for people exploring packages or useful for extension by scripts

@cyanisaac I'm already working on this as we speak... Maybe I can close this issue before the end of the day!
