Process buffer width is too short for output list parsing

Open basicx-StrgV opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

The winget process that gets startet, uses the default buffer width. The default buffer width is too short and because of this winget does not output the full name and id of some packages. This results in incomplete parsing of the name and/or id of some packages.

Winget Output Sample

After parsing the result could look like this: Parsing Output Sample

Thanks to @FelixWorkspace for telling me that this is in fact a problem on Microsoft's site and not an error in my implementation.

See the following issue in the winget-cli repo, for more information: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/issues/1653

Because I was unable to find a temporary workaround the issue will be keeped open, until Microsoft fixes the problem in the winget-cli, in the hopes of finding a workaround.
