Hi, I wanted to use the AUR API to list packages that depend on a specific package. But it seems that the API does not implement this kind of search.
The use-case is the following: when I bump a package in [community],
I would like to list all packages in the AUR that potentially need a
rebuild.
Would this be a welcome addition to the API? If it is, I may try to hack
this myself (but I have no guarantee about available time, and I stopped
writing PHP and raw SQL years ago)
The API I have in mind is the following:
/rpc/?type=search&by=depends&arg=ocaml → returns all packages that depend
on ocaml
/rpc/?type=search&by=makedepends&arg=ocaml → returns all packages that
make-depend on ocaml
/rpc/?type=search&by=optdepends&arg=ocaml → returns all packages that
opt-depend on ocaml
Thanks,
Baptiste
