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 regex update fixes the Rust nightly build failure by in turn updating
its simd dependency to 2.x.
The regex update also includes a literal optimization that uses Tuned
Boyer Moore.
Fixes#617
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]
This only bumps the regex dependency. The new clap version causes a bump
in unicode-segmentation, which in turn requires a Rust 1.15, which is
above ripgrep's currently supported minimum Rust version of 1.12.
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.
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.
