Is there any query string param to open the store and show the results of a query?
Related to https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch/issues/1867
The reason for asking for a querystring is to build a package that works as a proxy to the store, and implement and install a button agnostic to the store without requiring a database
Suggested params:
exact: true values1,y,yes,YES,true,TRUE, if true, q is provided, and an app has 100% match insensitive, open the description of the appq: search termid: exact app ID to be installedprovider: one ofsnap,flatpak, orreporepos: URL encoded to a file for additional repos
repos.yml
- Choose a friendly config format
- The vendor should configure the base distribution (POP!_OS based on Ubuntu, so install the package for POP!_OS, and if these repos aren't provided, install packages for Ubuntu)
- The vendor should provide the mandatory params, for example, Ubuntu should require
$ARCHand$VERSION_CODENAME - This standardized configuration file should be distributed in a public repository owned by the app provider to allow the distro maintainers to add support to their distros
Agreements
The base distros should use this as marketing related to users shouldn't run any command to install a package if they find a tutorial or the official website, the app provider doesn't require specifying the distro version, only to have a package as a proxy that follows the standard
Share button
The store should build this install link
