Strict search -> fuzzy search #8

Closed freemanoid closed 11 years ago

freemanoid commented 11 years ago

There is no convention among gem developers about naming so sometime they uses dashes sometimes underscores.

Today we have strict search so activeadmin works but active admin doesn't.

It would be good to use some kind of fuzzy search so we will be capable to find a gem if we really don't its correct name.

Thanks for the suggestion.

We won't implement that, as it's quite easy to find the official gem name by looking at the Gemfile of a project using the gem, or directly in the gemspec file in the gem repository. Also if you start writing "active" in the search field, it will show all registered gems containing "active" in their name.

I close the issue but if really want a fuzzy search a pull request is welcome.
