Add option to search apps using Github api #40
Comments
This is a good idea, but i'm not sure about filtering results to get rid of non-APK releases, because there could be 100s of results and checking each needs one API request so even a user with a token could run out quickly (and it would take a long time). But yeah, allowing the user to search then pick a result can be looked into. |
i think the token running out is not so likely. I use an app called raycast to search github repo's and I never hit a limit. Filtering is def, a challenge. Even without the filter it could already help to add apps people know. |
Is there no official way that Github devs designate what platform their repos target? Like a Tag for android? |
Added: https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium/releases/tag/v0.7.0-beta No way to filter only for android Apps as far as I can see, so it's up to the user to recognize what they want. |
As a way to move more to apps discovery I think a great start would be to utilize the option to use API keys of GitHub to search repositories. Ideally these would be filtered based on the results having releases with an APK file.
This all would remove the requirement to find the url of the app and copy it over etc.
