Search API #14

Closed Kapeli closed 10 years ago

Kapeli commented 10 years ago

There doesn't seem to be a Search API documented at http://go-search.org/infoapi. Is this available in any way? I'd like to enter the same query you'd enter at http://go-search.org/ and get the results as JSON.

No, it is not support yet. But I'm open to do it.

Can you describe a little bit about how you'll use it so that I can decide how to design the API here.

Kapeli commented 10 years ago

I'm going to use it with Dash as a way for users to find Go packages and install docs for them (from godoc.org). Basically I want something like http://api.godoc.org/search?q=go-imap - you send a query and you get sorted results in return. A way to limit the number of results to be returned would be nice too. Oh and would be great if the results would also include the godoc.org path.
