Inability to query API for packages mapped to different name. #1683

Closed Zopolis4 closed 10 months ago

Zopolis4 commented 10 months ago

For example, if I query the API for acpica, I get no result.

This is because it is listed under acpia-tools.

However, a number of distributions have it mapped to just acpica, including Chromebrew.

If I know that Chromebrew maps it to acpica, would it not make sense to be able to submit this information in my query, and get the desired result?

i.e. something like https://release-monitoring.org/api/v2/projects/?name=acpica&mapping=Chromebrew would search every package tracked by Chromebrew for the acpica mapping, which would return acpia-tools.

If you want to find it by mapping in specific distribution, you can use https://release-monitoring.org/api/v2/packages/?name=<package_name>. The api/v2/projects is more oriented to search by project's atributes.
