missing results?

Open jeffmcaffer opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

The following yields 3 results as show. Some of which do not have redi in the name.

http://npmsearch.com/query?q=redi&fields=name
{"results":[{"name":["redi"]},{"name":["specialone"]},{"name":["npmtest-socket.io-redis"]}],"total":3,"from":0}

By contrast, searching for redi on npmjs.com gives

3515 packages found for "redi"

Have I done something wrong? Other searches like the dom one in the doc give lots of results.

This also seems to be happening to me.

Searching: http://npmsearch.com/?q=superagent and I get plenty of plugins for superagent but not the main package.

Searching on nmpjs.com: https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=superagent brings it up as the first result.

Packages are definitely missing from the search results.

Any plans for this being fixed?

Can confirm this is happening. I would venture to say that since its been a year since there was even a commit to the repo you can count this as abandoned. I wish we could flag it or ask the owners to add a deprecation notice.
