This commit makes the git hash ripgrep was built with available for use
in the version string.
We also do a few minor touchups in build.rs and src/app.rs.
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
This commit adds 256-color and 24-bit truecolor support to ripgrep.
This only provides output support on ANSI terminals. If the Windows
console is used for coloring, then 256-color and 24-bit color settings
are ignored.
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

* 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
When -o/--only-matching is used with -r/--replace, the replacement works
as expected. This is not a breaking change because the flags were
previously set to conflict.
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>
Formatting of rg.1.md. Remove backticks from already indented code.
Add missing italic to some arguments, Replace -n by --line-number in
--pretty for better clarity. Add explicit example of `*.foo` instead of
`<glob>` in examples. Add vim information to --vimgrep.
In src/app.rs, also changed help text for pattern and regexp. Actually,
"multiple patterns may be given" was not true for the standalone
pattern.
This commit updates clap to v2.23.0
The update contained a bug fix in clap that results in broken code in
ripgrep. ripgrep was relying on the bug, but this commit fixes that
issue. The bug centered around not being able to override the
auto-generated help message by supplying a flag with a long of `help`.
Normally, supplying a flag with a long of `help` means whenever the user
passes `--help`, the consuming code (e.g. ripgrep) is responsible for
displaying the help message. However, due to the bug in clap this wasn't
necessary for ripgrep to do unless the user passed `-h`. With the bug
fixed, it meant the user passing `--help` and clap expected ripgrep to
display the help, yet ripgrep expected clap to display the help. This
has been fixed in this commit of ripgrep.
All well now!
v2.23.0 also brings the abilty to use `Arg::help` or `Arg::long_help`
allowing one to distinguish between `-h` and `--help`. This commit
leaves all doc strings in the `lazy_static!` hashmap however only for
aesthetic reasons.
This means all home rolled handling of `-h`/`--help` has been removed
from ripgrep, yet functionality *and* appearances are 100% the same.
Previously, `get_matches` would return even if --help or --version was
given, and we could check for them manually. That behavior seems to have
changed. Instead, we must use get_matches_safe to inspect the error to
determine what happened.
We can't use the same process for -V/--version since clap will
unconditionally print its own version info. Instead, we rename (internally)
the version flag so that clap doesn't interfere.
This permits setting the maximum line width with respect to the number
of bytes in a line. Omitted lines (whether part of a match, replacement
or context) are replaced with a message stating that the line was
elided.
Fixes#129
This includes, but is not limited to, UTF-16, latin-1, GBK, EUC-JP and
Shift_JIS. (Courtesy of the `encoding_rs` crate.)
Specifically, this feature enables ripgrep to search files that are
encoded in an encoding other than UTF-8. The list of available encodings
is tied directly to what the `encoding_rs` crate supports, which is in
turn tied to the Encoding Standard. The full list of available encodings
can be found here: https://encoding.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-encoding-get
This pull request also introduces the notion that text encodings can be
automatically detected on a best effort basis. Currently, the only
support for this is checking for a UTF-16 bom. In all other cases, a
text encoding of `auto` (the default) implies a UTF-8 or ASCII
compatible source encoding. When a text encoding is otherwise specified,
it is unconditionally used for all files searched.
Since ripgrep's regex engine is fundamentally built on top of UTF-8,
this feature works by transcoding the files to be searched from their
source encoding to UTF-8. This transcoding only happens when:
1. `auto` is specified and a non-UTF-8 encoding is detected.
2. A specific encoding is given by end users (including UTF-8).
When transcoding occurs, errors are handled by automatically inserting
the Unicode replacement character. In this case, ripgrep's output is
guaranteed to be valid UTF-8 (excluding non-UTF-8 file paths, if they
are printed).
In all other cases, the source text is searched directly, which implies
an assumption that it is at least ASCII compatible, but where UTF-8 is
most useful. In this scenario, encoding errors are not detected. In this
case, ripgrep's output will match the input exactly, byte-for-byte.
This design may not be optimal in all cases, but it has some advantages:
1. In the happy path ("UTF-8 everywhere") remains happy. I have not been
able to witness any performance regressions.
2. In the non-UTF-8 path, implementation complexity is kept relatively
low. The cost here is transcoding itself. A potentially superior
implementation might build decoding of any encoding into the regex
engine itself. In particular, the fundamental problem with
transcoding everything first is that literal optimizations are nearly
negated.
Future work should entail improving the user experience. For example, we
might want to auto-detect more text encodings. A more elaborate UX
experience might permit end users to specify multiple text encodings,
although this seems hard to pull off in an ergonomic way.
Fixes#1
The --max-filesize option allows filtering files which are larger than
the specified limit. This is potentially useful if one is attempting to
search a number of large files without common file-types/suffixes.
See #369.
Previously, ripgrep would only emit the 'bold' ANSI escape sequence if
no foreground or background color was set. Instead, it would convert colors
to their "intense" versions if bold was set. The intent was to do the same
thing on Windows and Unix. However, this had a few negative side effects:
1. Omitting the 'bold' ANSI escape when 'bold' was set is surprising.
2. Intense colors can look quite bad and be hard to read.
To fix this, we introduce a new setting called 'intense' in the --colors
flag, and thread that down through to the public API of the `termcolor`
crate. The 'intense' setting has environment specific behavior:
1. In ANSI mode, it will convert the selected color to its "intense"
variant.
2. In the Windows console, it will make the text "intense."
There is no longer any "smart" handling of the 'bold' style. The 'bold'
ANSI escape is always emitted when it is selected. In the Windows
console, the 'bold' setting now has no effect. Note that this is a
breaking change.
Fixes#266, #293
This commit completely guts all of the color handling code and replaces
most of it with two new crates: wincolor and termcolor. wincolor
provides a simple API to coloring using the Windows console and
termcolor provides a platform independent coloring API tuned for
multithreaded command line programs. This required a lot more
flexibility than what the `term` crate provided, so it was dropped.
We instead switch to writing ANSI escape sequences directly and ignore
the TERMINFO database.
In addition to fixing several bugs, this commit also permits end users
to customize colors to a certain extent. For example, this command will
set the match color to magenta and the line number background to yellow:
rg --colors 'match:fg:magenta' --colors 'line:bg:yellow' foo
For tty handling, we've adopted a hack from `git` to do tty detection in
MSYS/mintty terminals. As a result, ripgrep should get both color
detection and piping correct on Windows regardless of which terminal you
use.
Finally, switch to line buffering. Performance doesn't seem to be
impacted and it's an otherwise more user friendly option.
Fixes#37, Fixes#51, Fixes#94, Fixes#117, Fixes#182, Fixes#231
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`.
