@ -22,61 +22,66 @@ The **search** pattern can be:
- an expression whith wild card supporting the shell expansion, the default - an expression whith wild card supporting the shell expansion, the default
- a regular expression, using the flag -re - a regular expression, using the flag -re
The only thing that needs to be remembered is to wrap in double quote the regular expression in conjunction with the **-re** flag
when you choose to use it, for example:
``` ```
vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re "(.*)rem(.*)" vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re '(.*)rem(.*)'
``` ```
all items matching the pattern are show in the result tree: in this specific case any name containing **rem** substring<br /> all items matching the pattern are show in the result tree: in this specific case any name containing **rem** substring<br />
The same results above can be achieved using the command version with the shell expansion: The same results above can be achieved using the command version with the shell expansion:
``` ```
vfind ~/nerd_tree/ *rem* vfind ~/nerd_tree/ '*rem*'
``` ```
You can use as pattern any valid regular expression, for example pattern as this You can use as pattern any valid regular expression, for example pattern as this
``` ```
vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re "(.*)rem|tree(.*)" vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re '(.*)rem|tree(.*)'
``` ```
The folder matching the pattern are show collapsed with information about the total number of files and the size of the subtree. The folder matching the pattern are show collapsed with information about the total number of files and the size of the subtree.
If you want to show the subtree expanded you can use the flag **-s** If you want to show the subtree expanded you can use the flag **-s**
``` ```
vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re "(.*)rem(.*)" -s vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re '(.*)rem(.*)' -s
``` ```
## Include/Exclude path ## Include/Exclude path
You can include a set of results selecting specific branch (or paths) with the option **-i** (include). You can include a set of results selecting specific branch (or paths) with the option **-i** (include).
For example: In this case the match is made exactly on the pattern provided, for example:
``` ```
vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re "(.*)py" -i src vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re '(.*)py' -i src
``` ```
include the results that along the path have the name **src**.<br /> include the results that along the path have the name **src**.<br />
**NOTE** the command above is equivalent to **NOTE** the command above is equivalent to
``` ```
vfind ~/nerd_tree/ *py -i src vfind ~/nerd_tree/ '*py' -i src
``` ```
You can include the -i more than once, for example: You can include the -i more than once as in this case:
``` ```
vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re "([0-9][0-9])|(^tree_(.*))" -i src -i .git vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re '([0-9][0-9])|(^tree_(.*))' -i src -i .git
``` ```
the above command will search for files or folders with a **two digits** name or with the name beginning with **tree_** the above command will search for files or folders with a **two digits** name or with the name beginning with **tree_**
only in the path ***src*** or ***.git*** only in the path ***src*** or ***.git***
In a similar manner you can exclude paths with the option **-e**, too in this case you can specify more than once the option -e In a similar manner you can exclude from the results tree paths or items with the option **-e**.
> The **-e** option can be any valid pattern that support the shell expansion
too in this case you can specify more than once the option -e
``` ```
vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re "(.*)py" -e src vfind ~/nerd_tree/ -re '(.*)py' -e src
```
```
vfind -e .git -e __pycache__ ~/nerd_tree/ 'ntree*'
``` ```
