crag is a command-line rust based application and library for acessing (google) search results.
If you already have rust and cargo installed, you can install crag directly from crates.io:
console
cargo install --features=cli crag
To search with crag, just run crag [SEARCH], and wait for the results -- it's really that simple.
console
crag mountain-climbing
Of course, crag also supports several flags that modify the results returned by your search. The tool ships with built-in help text that describes the various options:
console
crag --help
...
Add crag to your project in your Cargo.toml:
toml
crag = "0.4.0"
From a high level, crag uses search engine implementations to execute search queries and return a vector of results.
Queries, engine settings, and search results are all static types; the actual search engine used should be interchangeable for any given query.
So if you want to point crag at your custom searx server, it's as simple as implementing the Soap trait for that engine.
crag also provides search implementations out-of-the-box, so you can get to searching:
