Feature Description

One of Giteas best features is the blazing fast indexed full text search available at /explore/code. Unfortunately it seems that there is no REST API to access this feature programmatically. Such an API would be very useful to visualize results or present them in some other way.

Therefore I propose to introduce a new REST API

GET /api/v1/version/code?q=<queryString>&t=<fuzzy>&page=<pageNumber>&limit=<pageSize>

It should return a list of search results, containing at least the matched repository, file path, line number und line content

[{
    "repository": "my-repository",
    "path": "src/test/resources/strings.properties",
    "lineNumber": 255,
    "line": "TEXT=Lorem ipsum solor delet"
}]
