DESCRIPTION
Search the Fisherman index database. You can use a custom index file by setting $fisher_index
to your preferred URL or file. See fisher help config
and Index in fisher help tour
.
A copy of the index is downloaded every time a search query happens, keeping the index up to date all the time.
The index file consists of records separated by blank lines '\n\n'
and each record consists of fields separated by a single line '\n'
.
For example:
name
url
info
tag1 tag2 tag3 ...
author
See Output for more information.
OPTIONS
-
-s --select[=all|cache|remote]
: Select the record source. --select=cache queries only local plugins, i.e., those inside$fisher_cache
. --select=remote queries all plugins not in the cache, i.e, those available to install. --select=all queries everything. -
-f --field=name|url|info|tag|author
: Display only the given fields from the selected records. Use --field as a shortcut for --field=field. For examplefisher search --url
will display only the URLs for -
--field[=match]
: Filter the result set by field=match, where field can be one or more ofname
,url
,info
,tag
orauthor
. If match is not given, this is equivalent to --select=field. Use!=
to negate the query. -
--field[~/regex/]
: Essentially the same as --field=match, but with Regular Expression support. --field~/regex/ filters the result set using the given /regex/. For example, --name=/^match$/ is the same as --field=match and --url~/oh-my-fish/ selects only oh-my-fish plugins. Use!~
to negate the query. -
-a --and
: Join query with the logical AND operator. -
-o --or
: Join query with the logical OR operator. This the default operator for each query. -
-Q --query=field[&&,||]field...
: Use a custom search expression. For example,--query=name~/[0-9]/||name~/^[xyz]/
selects all plugins that contain numbers in their name or begin with the characters x, y or z. -
-q --quiet
: Enable quiet mode. -
-h --search
: Show help.
OUTPUT
The default behavior is to print the result set to standard output in their original format.
