Support searching for issues

Open sorin-ionescu opened this issue 11 years ago • 4 comments

On popular repositories that have thousands of issues ghi list | grep <foo> is too slow. Please support the use of the GitHub search API to search for issues matching a regular expression or plain text, whatever the API supports.

Started to play around with that, will push it later. @stephencelis, I implemented it as an own command, as s was already taken by search I named it find, is that ok? The search API is a little different from the the issue API - however I plan to add a -k --keyword (or better -q --query) option to the list command, which redirects to the find command.

The reason to create an own command for that feature is a separation of concerns (the actual query string needs a different build-up and so on) and the richer search API which provides more filtering options than the plain issue API.

@sorin-ionescu, the API supports only plain keywords.
