Hi, What is the current position on adding a query type to the JSON interface to return a full list of AUR packages? If creating a JSON list of that size is prohibitive, what about providing a simple, newline-delineated text file that is refreshed via a cronjob? I ask because I just discovered aurlist [1] and my immediate thought was that a simple list would save considerable bandwidth and processing vs scraping the search results. If this already exists, please point me to it while mocking me gently. Happy holidays btw ;) [2] Regards, Xyne [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/aurlist/ [2] http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/xmas/arch-holly_jolly.svg
