About searching for packages
You can search for packages globally across all of GitHub AE, or search for packages within a particular organization. For more information, see "About searching on GitHub."
Tips:
- This article contains links to example searches on the GitHub.com website, but you can use the same search filters with GitHub AE. In the linked example searches, replace
github.comwith the hostname for your enterprise. - For a list of search syntaxes that you can add to any search qualifier to further improve your results, see "Understanding the search syntax".
- Use quotations around multi-word search terms. For example, if you want to search for issues with the label "In progress," you'd search for
label:"in progress". Search is not case sensitive.
Searching within a user's or organization's packages
To find packages owned by a certain user or organization, use the user or org qualifier.
| Qualifier | Example |
|---|---|
user:USERNAME | user:codertocat matches packages owned by @codertocat |
org:ORGNAME | org:github matches packages owned by the GitHub organization |
Filtering by package visibility
To filter your search by whether a package is public or private, use the is qualifier.
| Qualifier | Example |
|---|---|
is:public | is:public angular matches public packages that contain the word "angular" |
is:private | is:private php matches private packages that contain the word "php" |
