grepox

Minimalist's grep written in Rust, inspired by ripgrep.

Disclaimer

This project was made as a learning project.

That being said, I do try my best to make the code as good as I know about and may occasionally revisit with optimizations.

However, it is unlikely that large feature updates are made.

Usage

``` Usage: grepox [OPTION]... QUERY [FILES]... Search for QUERY in FILES. Example: # Finds the phrase 'hello world' case-insensitively in file1.txt # and file2.txt and prints matches in color grepox -ci 'hello world' file1.txt file2.txt

Options: -i Ignore case distinctions in QUERY -n Print line number with output lines -v Invert match: select non-matching lines -F String searching, disables regex -x Only match whole lines, only works with -F -w Only match whole words, only works with -F -m= Stop after NUM matches -c Colorizes output -h Print this help and exit ```

Features

• Regex support
• Reads from stdin so users can pipe programs' outputs into it (e.g. seq 10000 | grepox '^\d{1,3}$')
• Customizable using command flags
• Colors
