This also updates some code to make use of our more liberal versioning
requirement, including the use of crossbeam-channel instead of the MsQueue
from the older an unmaintained crossbeam 0.3. This does regrettably add
a sizable number of dependencies, however, compile times seem mostly
unaffected.
Closes#1019
This commit does the work to delete the old `grep` crate and effectively
rewrite most of ripgrep core to use the new libripgrep crates. The new
`grep` crate is now a facade that collects the various crates that make
up libripgrep.
The most complex part of ripgrep core is now arguably the translation
between command line parameters and the library options, which is
ultimately where we want to be.
1.23.0 is the first Rust release of 2018 and is around half a year old,
which seems old enough to move to. This also lets us bring in encoding_rs
0.8, which includes performance optimizations.
This fixes a bug where ripgrep's man page wasn't generated in the ARM
cross-compile build. Mostly, this should just require installing
asciidoc and making sure we test that it actually works.
Fixes#791
This fixes CI to handle the new documentation files. We also continue to
do more cleanup. In particular, we devise a nicer way of detecting the
most recent Cargo OUT_DIR by writing a dummy file, and looking for the
most recently modified version of that file.
This commit uses the recent refactoring for defining flags to
automatically generate a man page. This finally allows us to define the
documentation for each flag in a single place.
The man page is generated on every build, if and only if `asciidoc` is
installed. When generated, it is placed in Cargo's `OUT_DIR` directory,
which is the same place that shell completions live.
This cleans up our CI scripts but doesn't significantly change anything.
Mostly this is removing dead code and wrong comments, and making the style
a bit more consistent.
This commit adds opt-in support for searching compressed files during
recursive search. This behavior is only enabled when the
`-z/--search-zip` flag is passed to ripgrep. When enabled, a limited set
of common compression formats are recognized via file extension, and a
new process is spawned to perform the decompression. ripgrep then
searches the stdout of that spawned process.
Closes#539
[ignore] tests and new matched_path_or_any_parents method
The test data (gitignore rules and expected result) is based on the test
repo at <https://github.com/behnam/gitignore-test>.
The new `matched_path_or_any_parents` method fixes a bug
in gitignore matching where rules of form `<dir>/*` result in ignoring
only first-level files, but no deep files. This is not correct, as `<dir>/*`
matches the first-level directories under `<dir>`, resulting all to be
ignored. The new method fixes it by trying to match all parents in the
path against the gitignore rules.
The new method is necessary because it necessarily entails a
performance hit for trying to match all parents.
There were two important reasons for the switch:
1. Performance. Docopt does poorly when the argv becomes large, which is
a reasonable common use case for search tools. (e.g., use with xargs)
2. Better failure modes. Clap knows a lot more about how a particular
argv might be invalid, and can therefore provide much clearer error
messages.
While both were important, (1) made it urgent.
Note that since Clap requires at least Rust 1.11, this will in turn
increase the minimum Rust version supported by ripgrep from Rust 1.9 to
Rust 1.11. It is therefore a breaking change, so the soonest release of
ripgrep with Clap will have to be 0.3.
There is also at least one subtle breaking change in real usage.
Previous to this commit, this used to work:
rg -e -foo
Where this would cause ripgrep to search for the string `-foo`. Clap
currently has problems supporting this use case
(see: https://github.com/kbknapp/clap-rs/issues/742),
but it can be worked around by using this instead:
rg -e [-]foo
or even
rg [-]foo
and this still works:
rg -- -foo
This commit also adds Bash, Fish and PowerShell completion files to the
release, fixes a bug that prevented ripgrep from working on file
paths containing invalid UTF-8 and shows short descriptions in the
output of `-h` but longer descriptions in the output of `--help`.
Fixes#136, Fixes#189, Fixes#210, Fixes#230
We should probably still test on it, but I'd prefer distributing exactly
one Linux binary. Since the musl build is a totally static executable,
we should prefer that.
(The right answer is to test on GNU nightly, but don't produce a release
artifact.)
