This basically rewrites every integration test. We reduce the amount of
magic involved here in terms of which arguments are being passed to
ripgrep processes. To make up for the boiler plate saved by the magic,
we make the Dir (formerly WorkDir) type a bit nicer to use, along with a
new TestCommand that wraps a std::process::Command. In exchange, we get
tests that are easier to read and write.
We also run every test with the `--pcre2` flag to make sure that works,
when PCRE2 is available.
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.
libripgrep is not any one library, but rather, a collection of libraries
that roughly separate the following key distinct phases in a grep
implementation:
1. Pattern matching (e.g., by a regex engine).
2. Searching a file using a pattern matcher.
3. Printing results.
Ultimately, both (1) and (3) are defined by de-coupled interfaces, of
which there may be multiple implementations. Namely, (1) is satisfied by
the `Matcher` trait in the `grep-matcher` crate and (3) is satisfied by
the `Sink` trait in the `grep2` crate. The searcher (2) ties everything
together and finds results using a matcher and reports those results
using a `Sink` implementation.
Closes#162
This commit improves the integration test setup by running tests inside
the system's temporary directory instead of within ripgrep's `target`
directory. The motivation here is to attempt to reduce the effect of
unanticipated state on ripgrep's integration tests, such as the presence
of `.gitignore` files in ripgrep's checkout directory hierarchy
(including parent directories).
This doesn't remove all possible state. For example, there's no
guarantee that the system's temporary directory isn't itself within a
git repository. Moreover, there may still be other ignore rules in the
directory tree that might impact test behavior. Fixing this seems
somewhat difficult. Conceptually, it seems like ripgrep should run each
test in its own `chroot`-like environment, but doing this in a
non-annoying and portable way (including Windows) doesn't appear to be
possible.
Another approach to take here might be to teach ripgrep itself that a
particular directory should be treated as root, and therefore, never
look at anything outside that directory. This also seems complex to
implement, but tractable. Let's see how this approach works for now.
Fixes#448, #996
This method was supposed to panic whenever the given path wasn't under
the root of the gitignore patcher. Instead of using assert!, it was using
debug_assert!. This actually caused tests to fail when running under
release mode, because the debug_assert! wouldn't trip.
Fixes#671
This commit updates the logic for finding the value of git's
`core.excludesFile` configuration parameter. Namely, we now check
`$XDG_CONFIG_DIR/git/config` in addition to `$HOME/.gitconfig` (where
the latter overrules the former on a knob-by-knob basis).
Fixes#995
Generally speaking, ripgrep prevents the case of not having any patterns
via its arg parsing. However, it is possible for users to provide a file
of patterns via the `-f` flag. If that file is empty, then ripgrep has
nothing to search for and therefore should not ever produce any match.
One way of fixing this might be to replace the absence of patterns with
a pattern that can never match, but this still requires opening and
searching through every file, which is quite a waste. Instead, we detect
this case explicitly and quit early.
Fixes#900
This removes logic from the decompressor for skipping tar archives. This
logic was originally added under the assumption that we probably want to
avoid the cost of reading them. However, this is generally inconsistent
with how ripgrep treats files like tar archives: it should search them
and do binary detection like normal.
Fixes#918
This commit adds a new --no-ignore-global flag that permits disabling
the use of global gitignore filtering. Global gitignores are generally
found in `$HOME/.config/git/ignore`, but its location can be configured
via git's `core.excludesFile` option.
Closes#934
This commit fixes an interesting bug in the `ignore` crate where it
would basically respect any `.gitignore` file anywhere (including global
gitignores in `~/.config/git/ignore`), regardless of whether we were
searching in a git repository or not. This commit rectifies that
behavior to only respect gitignore rules when in a git repo.
The key change here is to move the logic of whether to traverse parents
into the directory matcher rather than putting the onus on the directory
traverser. In particular, we now need to traverse parent directories in
more cases than we previously did, since we need to determine whether
we're in a git repository or not.
Fixes#934
This commit improves the error message when --path-separator fails. Namely,
it prints the separator it got and also prints a notice for Windows users
for common failure modes.
Fixes#957
winapi 0.3.5 changed how it represents some of its structs, which caused
a bug to surface in atty that prevents tty detection on Windows. atty
has an open PR to fix this: https://github.com/softprops/atty/pull/28
Until a new release of atty, we pin winapi to a version that works.
This switch explicitly disables the --pre behavior. An empty string will
also disable --pre behavior, but actually utterring an empty flag value
is quite awkward, so we provide an explicit switch to do the same thing.
Thanks to @c-blake for pointing this out.
This commit mostly moves the transcoder implementation to its own
crate: https://github.com/BurntSushi/encoding_rs_io
The new crate adds clear documentation and cleans up the implementation
to fully implement the contract of io::Read.
The --pre flag can result in a pretty large performance penalty, so put
a warning in the flag documentation. This warning is important because a
flag like this could easily wind up in a user's configuration file.
The preprocessor flag accepts a command program and executes this
program for every input file that is searched. Instead of searching the
file directly, ripgrep will instead search the stdout contents of the
program.
Closes#978, Closes#981
Wrappers usually define things required for snaps to work like library path.
Ripgrep being static binary doesn't need it at all.
This will give minor speed up in scenarios when ripgrep is ran multiple
times and can be considered as good practice for static binaries.
