Feature Request: Add "List all restore points" as an option

[Gr3q]

What is says in the title. Maybe using -l?

I'm planning on adding this soon along with a remove function. (maybe -del or -rm) I have been working on a pretty major overhaul, so this should be simple once everything is working. If you want to see the status of this, checkout to the refactor fork. I still need to do a lot more unit testing before I merge it though.

[JustinTimperio]

Okay so I just added this feature in the refactor fork. I will try and merge this branch soon

[Gr3q]

Thanks, I can wait until the merge

[JustinTimperio]

Hey Gr3q, I'm looking for some help testing my refactor before I merge it. If you have any interest in doing so let me know.

Thanks

[Gr3q]

Sure, I can do that, let me know what to test for and I'll do it

[JustinTimperio]

Thanks, I appreciate the help. Version 1.6 is a massive refactor from 1.5. While the commands are the same, under the hood things are far more refined from a code perspective. Right now I'm putting the final touches on the update before I merge.

• General Bug checking is the main thing I need to do. Now that the project is getting large, it makes it much harder for me to test all the branches that could execute. I have been putting it through the paces as much as I can but I have had pretty limited time.

• The pacman hook seems to be working but I would like someone other than me to confirm that it is working.

• I have looked through the code a bunch and as far as I can tell the zst update hasn't affected anything. Now that it's fully released this can be tested fully. (Not really expecting any issues)

• Costly string comparisons and regex filters are now multi-threaded. This should reduce runtime quite a bit but I want to make sure it's not locking up on slower cpu's.

• Individual package searches are far more accurate but the regex is a little hacky. I want to make sure it works effectively for most package names.

• There is a new clean function that automates a lot of the maintenance of clearing caches and restore points. I have only done limited testing on this.

I can do point number 2, 3, 4 on 2 computers quite easily. Number 5 (and maybe 1?) sounds like it could use unit tests rather than manual testing tho.

For number 1 and 6 you will have to specify what to test for and I will do them.

[JustinTimperio]

Unfortunately, most of the testing needs to be done manually. I use flake8 to look for issues but a lot of the system commands just need to be tested manually.

I have finished 1, 3, 4, 5, 6

I think I'm going to merge this unless you have found any serious errors I have missed.

[JustinTimperio]

Since the list feature is now added I'm going to close this.
