Overview

Small tool for greping supporting .gitignore and custom .ignore file. This make easy to ignore files that reside in git like rspec support files.

Installation

cargo install gkosgrep

Usage

I did this to use inside vim as a replacement for the silver searcher that would be easier to customize what is ignored. The usage is damn simple

gkosgrep <pattern> <rootfolder=.> <ignorefiles=.gitignore .ignore>

I'm using = specify the defaults here. If ignored file is missing it is just ignored. To use this with fzf inside vim, do:

command! -bang -nargs=* Rg
  \ call fzf#vim#grep(
  \   '<REPLACE_PATH_HERE>/rgrep/target/release/rgrep . '.shellescape(<q-args>), 0,
  \   {}, <bang>0)

Then use Rg command to filter files
