Brock,
The proposed search dialog allows one to specify a token and search
for it in a single authority or all authorities. The data returned
will be package name, package description and status when searching in
a single authority and package name, authority nane and status when
searcging in all repositories.
I hope you'll also be adding an advanced search option at some point to
allow users a graceful introduction into the more powerful features
available. I will be returning the package name from the search (if you
construct your query correctly). The description and status are
available through other means and you will need to do the join to line
that information up.
I believe that we want the token to match a package name or a package
description.
That is possible.
I was not able to figure out how to do this on the command line.
Should I be able to?
Here's a search that will mind SUNWipkg in either a name or
description: pkg search -l '<:attribute:fmri:SUNWipkg OR
:attribute:description:SUNWipkg>'
And here's one that finds web in either a name or description pkg
search -l '<:attribute:fmri:web OR :attribute:description:web>'
When I tried to run your code I got errors which I do not get when I
run from the gate. See attached.
As I said, this is a preliminary webrev. To fix local search, delete
line 842 ( where i,q = tmp).
For remote search, you're going to have to run your own depot since no
existing server supports search 1. The webrev I sent should work with
search to a remote depot serving search/1.

Here's the preliminary/alpah/pre-alpha/"should never see the light of

The API code has been cleaned up a tiny bit, but basically the code
is in the state it's in when I develop it.
Things I know I need to fix: error handling, formatting, removing
commented code, making it work with the test suite, and probably lots
more I can't think of at the moment.
Things that might yet be changed: Basically everything. I think the
api is converging, but I spent today doing a fairly major rewhack so
I might rethink things again as I get more distance.
I'll be updating it in place as I make changes to either the client
or server API.
John, Michal, Padraig, please let me know if there are pieces of
information missing from the API as is.
If anyone else feels like diving in, comments are of course welcome
(though ones about formatting and commented code will probably be
ignored for a while).
