It turns out that the vimgrep format really only wants one line per match, even when that match spans multiple lines. We continue to support the previous behavior (print all lines in a match) in the `grep-printer` crate. We add a new option to enable the "only print the first line" behavior, and unconditionally enable it in ripgrep. We can do that because the option has no effect in single-line mode, since, well, in that case matches are guaranteed to span one line anyway. Fixes #1866
ripgrep core
This is the core ripgrep crate. In particular, main.rs
is where the main
function lives.
Most of ripgrep core consists of two things:
- The definition of the CLI interface, including docs for every flag.
- Glue code that brings the
grep-matcher
,grep-regex
,grep-searcher
andgrep-printer
crates together to actually execute the search.
Currently, there are no plans to make ripgrep core available as an independent library. However, much of the heavy lifting of ripgrep is done via its constituent crates, which can be reused independent of ripgrep. Unfortunately, there is no guide or tutorial to teach folks how to do this yet.
