source option does not work on list

[AdilHindistan]

Brief description of your issue

When I use --source or -s to filter installed packages by source, result does not get filtered, I get the full list of installed apps instead.

Steps to reproduce

1. winget list --source winget

2. winget list --name visual --source winget

PS C:\Users\adil> winget list --name visual --source winget
Name                                                               Id                                     Version        Available Source

... (shortened)

Expected behavior

1. Get the list of all installed apps where source is winget
2. Get the list of packages that have 'visual' in name and source is winget

Actual behavior

1. I get the list of all apps regardless of the source. I.e. source is ignored
2. I get the list of all apps with 'visual' in the name regardless of the source. Source is ignored.

@AdilHindistan are you looking for packages that have an upgrade available from a given source, or are you looking for any packages installed with a corresponding manifest is a given source?

winget upgrade -s <source> would provide the list of packages with upgrades available from a given source.

@denelon That command is quite useful, thank you. In my case, I simply wanted to see what was installed by winget vs other means. Maybe the "source" is a bit misleading. I am pretty sure I did not use winget to install some of the packages listed. I guess it just means winget has a version for the installed package?
I thought I can use -s to filter installed packages list by source but I guess not?

[denelon]

@AdilHindistan you are correct. The source column in the list output just shows a package from an available source that "should" be an upgrade. We don't record what was installed by the Windows Package Manager vs. another install method yet.

I'm going to close this bug since it appears the client is behaving as expected.

I think winget list -s winget should show what apps are installed on my system, available from given source and should filter out apps that have no/different source. Currently winget list -s winget is similar to winget list command, just outputting list of all the applications installed on system instead just showing apps from given source. This command will be helpful to know exactly which installed apps winget can recognize/know if available in winget-pkgs or any custom source. Output could be similar to winget export command where apps with unknown sources are removed from the list.

@KaranKad #1155 looks like what you're suggesting.

Yeah that's exactly it 😅.
