Hello all, Let me share the current state about title, summary and description fields. Currently, the store API exposes these fields for each snap (among others):
package_name -> the "technical" package name, such as generic-amd64 (not-editable, but could change due to name disputes or similar) name -> fully qualified name of a package, such as "generic-amd64.canonical" (not-editable, same remark as before) summary -> the package summary, matches the summary field in the snap.yaml file (editable from Store UI) description -> the package description, matches the description field in the snap.yaml file (editable from Store UI) title -> the human readable string for a package, initially is filled with the snap name, but can be edited from the Store UI There is a pending improvement from snappy so the title is also required in the snap.yaml, once that is done, the store will use that to populate the title field. For current examples: https://search.apps.ubuntu.com/api/v1/package/generic-amd64 https://search.apps.ubuntu.com/api/v1/package/bar So specifically to this bug report, I think the Gnome Software should always use the 'title' property from the Store results as the human readable string to show to the user. ** Changed in: software-center-agent Status: Triaged => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1555569 Title: [snaps] Show human-readable names for store apps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/click-reviewers-tools/+bug/1555569/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
