Project Search API

[Kapeli]

Is there any API to search for projects by name? If not, could this be added?

Alternatively, is it ok if I cache the list of projects (as returned by https://read-the-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#projects) on my servers and implement my own search?

This is related to: #662 (comment).

If I read https://github.com/rtfd/readthedocs.org/blob/master/readthedocs/restapi/views/search_views.py correctly, it's not possible to search for projects by name. You'll need to provide both q and project (project slug) parameters. Perhaps we can make project_search to search for project name or slug.

(Note that API v1 is being replaced by API v2.)

@Kapeli you can search project by name using this endpoint:

I'm closing this issue since I think it's solved. Please, re open if you consider.
