Add an option to open the Chocolatey.org page for any package

Open LordMike opened this issue 5 years ago • 8 comments

To get more details, view the status, see comments, etc.. you need to be on the webpage.. But to do so, you'll have to find the given package, again, on the webpage - as there's no link to it.

Please add an option next to details (in the feed view)

.. and also in "This pc" view

@LordMike I think that this is a great idea!

The only "slight" problem with this is that not all packages come from chocolatey.org, they could be from an internal feed, where the link to the package details is different.

I will have a think about how best to handle this.

Would it be possible to identify the feed a given package comes from, and then if that feed supports "web viewing": add the link?

We could possibly do something here. In the first instance, I think we would only enable it on the chocolatey feed, and have another issue to support identifying other feed types.

Isn't this just the gallery? I think the gallery name should be replaced to be more visible.

I am not sure that I follow what you are saying here. Can you elaborate?

This gallery button. We just need to rename this button to something clearer like: choco page image

The Gallery link doesn't show on the Details page when you open it from the list of installed packages under "This PC".

You have to search for the package under "chocolatey" and then view Details there.

From "This PC" (installed packages) iDyVA0yXTR

From "chocolatey" search tZd0bdh1ra
