Optional Indexing Of Package Descriptions (*useful* feature) HOPEFULLY #3445
-
|
Could we choose (when we install choco) for additinal desciption assets for each app when searching each package. SO if i search something I want there with the package string and ID and version it says a description the community gathers for it, both the GUI and CUI if possible. And also, we can voluntarily commit to developing descriptions for the source database for corresponding descriptions that are brief, and maybe in the description the Author Example: choco search quickcpu quickcpu 4.5.1 by (CODERBAG): CPU Unparking and Power Plan Configuration Software [Approved] Downloads cached for licensed users - Possibly broken for FOSS users (due to original download location changes by vendor) Or like (PACKAGE NAME) (VER) (Author or associated developer) (BRIEF AND USEFUL DESC) and whatever disclaimer goes after etc. I will try to commit if this suggestion is taken, and I hope this becomes a vital (but optional) feature so we don't have to scour for the package off MajorGeeks to see if the package name corresponds to the TRULY intended program we want the package of from online. We can all commit to making descriptions that can become indexed into the choco program soon to the best of our ability given this idea is taken onboard. Thanks all, StormieFN (Aspiring programmer) |

@StormieFN package descriptions and summaries are already available in the CLI if you run with
--verbose, e.g.choco search quickcpu --verbose, and in the GUI if you double click the package (or right click and select details).
