atom-search-everywhere package

This project was converted from https://github.com/geksilla/atom-fuzzy-grep.

1. Written in ES6, easier to maintain.
2. Fix the problem of searching for non-ASCII characters such as Chinese.
3. Fix the problem of detecting git repository under Windows.
4. More new features.

Note: Due to porting from coffeescript, the feature has not been fully tested and there may be unknown bugs.

Feature

Atom-search-everywhere performs a full-text search of the project, similar to InfinJ IDEA's Find-in-Path.

Enter a regular expression in the input, full-text search results for the project from active text editor will be displayed.

Currently supports three searchers:

1. gitgrep. Use the git grep command to search. Faster, can eliminate files that do not need to be searched (by identifying the .gitignore file).
2. grep. Search using grep, ag, pt, etc. High performance, but may search for files that should not be searched.
3. builtin. Use the built-in search API of atom. Slow speed and good compatibility. Suitable for use in unfamiliar system environments.

When searching, it will intelligently detect the appropriate searcher. The default detection order is gitgrep, grep, builtin, and it can be modified by the custom searcherPriority option.

Install

apm install atom-search-everywhere

Or search via Settings View -> Install

Usage

Hit ctrl-alt-g or , f f in vim-mode to toggle panel.

To open dialog with last searched string there is the command search-everywhere:toggleLastSearch. You can map it in your keymap.cson:

'atom-workspace':
  'ctrl-alt-shift-g': 'search-everywhere:toggleLastSearch'

Configuration

You can specify any command you want by Grep Command String option in package settings, ag is used by default.

If you want to setup another one instead of ag here few examples:

pt

pt -i --nocolor --nogroup --column

ack

ack -i --nocolor --nogroup --column

grep

grep -r -n --color=never

ripgrep

rg -i -n -H --no-heading --column

git grep

git grep -n -E

git grep used by default for git projects if you don't want to use it uncheck Detect Git Project And Use Git Grep option in package settings.

Check package settings for more info.

Caveats

• Search folder detects on project path from active text editor.
• When no editors opened or Untitled first project root path used.
• When you have opened several projects and want to search through it you need to open any file from this project and start search dialog.
• When active item not in project home directory used as root dir.
• When no projects opened home directory used as root dir.
