The --ignore-file-case-insensitive flag causes all
.gitignore/.rgignore/.ignore files to have their globs matched without
regard for case. Because this introduces a potentially significant
performance regression, this is always disabled by default. Users that
need case insensitive matching can enable it on a case by case basis.
Closes#1164, Closes#1170
When a "\n literal is not allowed" error is reported, ripgrep will now
suggest the use of the -U/--multiline flag, which enables matching
newlines.
Fixes#1055
The --pre-glob flag is like the --glob flag, except it applies to filtering
files through the preprocessor instead of for search. This makes it
possible to apply the preprocessor to only a small subset of files, which
can greatly reduce the process overhead of using a preprocessor when
searching large directories.
These flags provide granular control over ripgrep's buffering strategy.
The --line-buffered flag can be genuinely useful in certain types of shell
pipelines. The --block-buffered flag has a murkier use case, but we add it
for completeness.
This commit moves a lot of "utility" code from ripgrep core into
grep-cli. Any one of these things might not be worth creating a new
crate, but combining everything together results in a fair number of a
convenience routines that make up a decent sized crate.
There is potentially more we could move into the crate, but much of what
remains in ripgrep core is almost entirely dealing with the number of
flags we support.
In the course of doing moving things to the grep-cli crate, we clean up
a lot of gunk and improve failure modes in a number of cases. In
particular, we've fixed a bug where other processes could deadlock if
they write too much to stderr.
Fixes#990
This removes ripgrep-specific code for filtering files that correspond to
stdout and instead uses the 'ignore' crate's functionality for doing the
same.
These flags each accept one of five choices: none, path, modified,
accessed or created. The value indicates how the results are sorted.
For --sort, results are sorted in ascending order where as for --sortr,
results are sorted in descending order.
Closes#404
This commit adds a 'same_file_system' option to the walk builder. For
single threaded walking, it defers to the walkdir crate, which has the
same option. The bulk of this commit implements this flag for the parallel
walker. We add one very feeble test for this.
The parallel walker is now officially a complete mess.
Closes#321
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.
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 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 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
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
Specifically, this will use a buffered writer when not printing to a tty.
This fixes a long standing performance regression where ripgrep would
slow down dramatically if it needed to report a lot of matches.
Fixes#955
This commit does what no software project has ever done before: we've
outright removed a flag with no possible way to recapture its
functionality.
This flag presents numerous problems in that it never really worked well
in the first place, and completely falls over when ripgrep uses the
--no-heading output format. Well meaning users want ripgrep to fix this
by getting into the alignment business by buffering all output, but that
is a line that I refuse to cross.
Fixes#795
The new --no-ignore-messages flag permits suppressing errors related to
parsing .gitignore or .ignore files. These error messages can be somewhat
annoying since they can surface from repositories that one has no control
over.
Fixes#646
This update brings with it many bug fixes:
* Better error messages are printed overall. We also include
explicit call out for unsupported features like backreferences
and look-around.
* Regexes like `\s*{` no longer emit incomprehensible errors.
* Unicode escape sequences, such as `\u{..}` are now supported.
For the most part, this upgrade was done in a straight-forward way. We
resist the urge to refactor the `grep` crate, in anticipation of it
being rewritten anyway.
Note that we removed the `--fixed-strings` suggestion whenever a regex
syntax error occurs. In practice, I've found that it results in a lot of
false positives, and I believe that its use is not as paramount now that
regex parse errors are much more readable.
Closes#268, Closes#395, Closes#702, Closes#853
This update brings with it a new feature of the regex crate which will
now use SIMD optimizations automatically at runtime with no necessary
compile time flags. All that's needed is to enable the `unstable` feature.
Other crates, such as bytecount and encoding_rs, are still using the
old-style SIMD support, so we leave the simd-accel and avx-accel features.
However, the binaries we distribute on Github no longer have those
features enabled, which makes them truly portable.
Fixes#135
This commit provides basic support for a --stats flag, which will print
various aggregate statistics about a search after all of the results
have been printed. This is mostly intended to support a similar feature
found in the Silver Searcher. Note though that we don't emit the total
bytes searched; this is a first pass at an implementation and we can
improve upon it later.
Closes#411, Closes#799
Namely, when ripgrep is asked to count things and is also asked to print
every match on its own line, then we should just automatically count the
matches and not the lines. This is a departure from how GNU grep behaves,
but there is a compelling argument to be made that GNU grep's behavior
doesn't make a lot of sense.
Note that since this changes the behavior of combining two existing
flags, this is a breaking change.
This commit introduces a new flag, --count-matches, which will cause
ripgrep to report a total count of all matches instead of a count of
total lines matched.
Closes#566, Closes#814
This commit adds support for printing 0-based byte offset before each
line. We handle corner cases such as `-o/--only-matching` and
`-C/--context` as well.
Closes#812
This commit makes a small tweak to the --max-columns flag. Namely, if
the value of the flag is 0, then ripgrep behaves as-if the flag were
absent.
This is useful in the context of ripgrep reading configuration from the
environment. For example, an end user might set --max-columns=150, but we
should permit the user to disable this setting when needed. Using -M0 is
a nice way to do that.
We do this because a zero value for --max-columns isn't particularly
meaningful. We do leave the --max-count, --max-filesize and --maxdepth
flags alone though, since a zero value for those flags is potentially
meaningful. (--max-count even has tests for ripgrep's behavior when
given a value of 0.)
We use the new AppSettings::AllArgsOverrideSelf to permit all flags to
be specified multiple times. This removes the need for our previous
work-around where we would enable `multiple` for every flag and then
just extract the last value when consuming clap's matches.
We also add a couple regression tests that ensure repeated switches and
flags work as expected.
This commit adds support for reading configuration files that change
ripgrep's default behavior. The format of the configuration file is an
"rc" style and is very simple. It is defined by two rules:
1. Every line is a shell argument, after trimming ASCII whitespace.
2. Lines starting with '#' (optionally preceded by any amount of
ASCII whitespace) are ignored.
ripgrep will look for a single configuration file if and only if the
RIPGREP_CONFIG_PATH environment variable is set and is non-empty.
ripgrep will parse shell arguments from this file on startup and will
behave as if the arguments in this file were prepended to any explicit
arguments given to ripgrep on the command line.
For example, if your ripgreprc file contained a single line:
--smart-case
then the following command
RIPGREP_CONFIG_PATH=wherever/.ripgreprc rg foo
would behave identically to the following command
rg --smart-case foo
This commit also adds a new flag, --no-config, that when present will
suppress any and all support for configuration. This includes any future
support for auto-loading configuration files from pre-determined paths
(which this commit does not add).
Conflicts between configuration files and explicit arguments are handled
exactly like conflicts in the same command line invocation. That is,
this command:
RIPGREP_CONFIG_PATH=wherever/.ripgreprc rg foo --case-sensitive
is exactly equivalent to
rg --smart-case foo --case-sensitive
in which case, the --case-sensitive flag would override the --smart-case
flag.
Closes#196
This commit builds on the previous argv refactor by being more principled
about how we declared our flags. In particular, we now require that every
clap argument is one of three things: a positional argument, a switch or
a flag that accepts exactly one value. The latter two are always permitted
to be repeated, and we modify the code that consumes a clap::ArgMatches to
always use the *last* value of an argument. (clap by default always uses
the first value of argument, if it has been repeated and is accessed via
one of the singleton accessors.)
Fixes#553
This commit updates the `log` crate to 0.4 and drops the dependency on
env_logger. In particular, the latest version of env_logger brings in
additional non-optional dependencies such as chrono that I don't think is
worth including into ripgrep.
It turns out ripgrep doesn't need any fancy logging. We just need a concept
of log levels and the ability to print to stderr. Therefore, we just roll
our own super simple logger.
This update is motivated by the persistent configuration task. In
particular, we need the ability to toggle the global log level more than
once, and this doesn't appear to be possible with older versions of the
log crate.
This commit fixes a bug on Windows where directory traversals were
completely broken when attempting to scan OneDrive directories that use
the "file on demand" strategy.
The specific problem was that Rust's standard library treats OneDrive
directories as reparse points instead of directories, which causes
methods like `FileType::is_file` and `FileType::is_dir` to always return
false, even when retrieved via methods like `metadata` that purport to
follow symbolic links.
We fix this by peppering our code with checks on the underlying file
attributes exposed by Windows. We consider an entry a directory if and
only if the directory bit is set on the attributes. We are careful to
make sure that the code remains the same on non-Windows platforms.
Note that we also bump the dependency on `walkdir`, which contains a
similar fix for its traversals.
This bug is recorded upstream:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/46484
Upstream also has a pending PR:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/47956Fixes#705
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
The --passthru flag causes ripgrep to print every line,
even if the line does not contain a match. This is a
response to the common pattern of `^|foo` to match every
line, while still highlighting things like `foo`.
Fixes#740
* Don't use 'smart typography' when generating man page
* Document PATTERN and PATH
* Capitalise place-holder names consistently
* Add note about PATH overriding glob/ignore rules
* Update args.rs for new PATH capitalisation
Fixes#725
The uninteresting bits of this commit involve mechanical changes for
updates to walkdir 2. The more interesting bits of this commit are the
breaking changes, although none of them should require any significant
change on users of this library. The breaking changes are as follows:
* `DirEntry::path_is_symbolic_link` has been renamed to
`DirEntry::path_is_symlink`. This matches the conventions in the
standard library, and also the corresponding name change in walkdir.
* Removed the `From<walkdir::Error> for ignore::Error` impl. This was
intended to only be used internally, but was the only thing that
made `walkdir` a public dependency of `ignore`. Therefore, we remove
it since it seems unnecessary.
* Renamed `WalkBuilder::sort_by` to `WalkBuilder::sort_by_file_name`,
and changed the type of the comparator from
Fn(&OsString, &OsString) -> cmp::Ordering + 'static
to
Fn(&OsStr, &OsStr) -> cmp::Ordering + Send + Sync + 'static
The corresponding change in `walkdir` retains the `sort_by` name, but
gives the comparator a pair of `&DirEntry` values instead of a pair
of `&OsStr` values. Ideally, `ignore` would hand off its own pair of
`&ignore::DirEntry` values, but this requires more design work. So for
now, we retain previous functionality, but leave room to make a proper
`sort_by` method.
[breaking-change]
fixesBurntSushi/ripgrep#506. Word boundary search as arg had unexpected
behavior. added capture group to regex to encapsulate 'or' option search and
prevent expansion and partial boundary finds.
Signed-off-by: Evan.Mattiza <emattiza@gmail.com>
to better organize options. These are the changes:
- color will have default value of "never" if --vimgrep is given,
and only if no --color option is given
- last overrides previous: --line-number and --no-line-number, --heading
and --no-heading, --with-filename and --no-filename, and --vimgrep and
--count
- no heading will be show if --vimgrep is defined. This worked inside
vim actually because heading is also only shown if tty is stdout
(which is not the case when rg is called from vim).
Unfortunately, clap does not behave like a usual GNU/POSIX in some
cases, as reported in https://github.com/kbknapp/clap-rs/issues/970
and https://github.com/kbknapp/clap-rs/issues/976 (having all the bells
and whistles, on the other hand). So we still have issues like rg
failing when same argument is given more than once (unless for the few
ones marked with `multiple(true)`), or having unintuitive precedence
rules (and probably non-intentional, just there because of clap's
limitations) like:
- --no-filename over --vimgrep
- --no-line-number over --column, --pretty or --vimgrep
- --no-heading over --pretty
regardless of the order in which options where given, where the desired
behavior would be that the last option would override the previous ones
given.
This reverts a couple of changes introduced in 4c78ca8 and keeps the
`PATTERN` argument consistently uppercased, so error messages can look
like:
error: The following required arguments were not provided:
<PATTERN>
