Dear all,

In a effort to run fedora-packages [0]  on our infrastructure Openshift instance, I have been working on replacing the current full text search engine powered by xapian by a new service that uses postgresql full text search capabilities and Django DRF.

The proof of concept of this service [2] is running on a dedicated Openshift instance [3]. There is currently only one API available that allow to search for a package. For example


will return the search results related to the firefox packages.

I will be working on adding fedora-search support in fedora-packages, I am also looking for feedbacks and possible applications that could use this new service.
