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

http://fedora-search-fedora-search.e8ca.engint.openshiftapps.com/?q=firefox

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.
