./textproc/hgrep, Grep with human-friendly search output

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 0.3.1, Package name: hgrep-0.3.1, Maintainer: pin

hgrep is a grep tool to search files with given pattern and print the matched
code snippets with human-friendly syntax highlighting.
In short, it's a fusion of bat and grep or other alternatives like ripgrep.

This is similar to -C option of grep command, but hgrep focuses on human
readable outputs. hgrep is useful to survey the matches with contexts around
them.
When some matches are near enough, hgrep prints the lines within one code
snippet. Unlike grep -C, hgrep adopts some heuristics around blank lines to
determine efficient number of context lines.

As an optional feature, hgrep has builtin grep implementation thanks to ripgrep
as library. It's a subset of rg command. And it's faster when there are so many
matches since everything is done in the same process.

Log message:
textproc/hgrep: update to 0.3.0

v0.3.0 - 21 Jan 2023
 - Update syntect dependency to v5.0.0. Thanks to lazy loading, this change
   makes loading assets at startup about 70% faster. The small benchmark showed
   hgrep command was 1.7x faster when searching a small file with -p syntect
   compared to v0.2.8.
 - Update bat dependency from 0.20 to 0.22. This introduces several improvements
   and fixes which were recently added to bat when using -p bat.
 - Add --generate-man-page flag to generate a manual page file. Save the output
   to your man directory to show the help with man command. If you install
   hgrep with Homebrew, it will be automatically generated.
 - Add several syntax highlighting for configuration files (Git configs, Fish
   history, SSH config, Nginx config, ...).
 - Wrapp the --help output looking at the terminal width. The output is more
   compact than v0.2.8.
 - Improve error handling when failing to enable ANSI color sequences support
   on Windows.

v0.2.8 - 10 Jan 2023
 - Fix some command line boolean flags wrongly took an argument.
   (thanks @Ryooooooga, #15)

v0.2.7 - 04 Jan 2023
 - Fix crash when reading from rg --vimgrep. Note that --vimgrep flag is not
   assumed by hgrep. Please use rg -nH. (#13)
 - Fix errors are not reported when they are caused by the second match or
   later.
 - Update dependencies to the latest. Especially migrating to clap v4 improved
   the --help output.
 - Migrate to Rust 2021 edition.

textproc/hgrep: use mk/atomic64.h.

Also sneak in -latomic via BUILDLINK_TRANSFORM on powerpc platforms,
cannot use LDFLAGS since it's cargo which invokes cc as linker, and
cargo apparently does not respect passed LDFLAGS.

Log message:
textproc/hgrep: update to 0.2.1

-Heuristic algorithm to choose the foreground color of matched regions was
 improved. Now hgrep generates multiple candidates for the foreground color,
 and chooses one of them looking at the color distances from the background
 color.
-Add new Material theme. It is a very popular low-contrast color theme. Try it
 by hgrep --theme Matrial.
-Add new Carbonight theme. It is a minimal monotone color theme. Some people
 feel that too colorful outputs are hard to see. This color theme might fit to
 such people.
-Built-in grep allows K/M/G suffix at --max-filesize option to specify a file
 size easily.
-Built-in grep adds new flag --invert-match for invert matching. It shows lines
 that do not match the given pattern.
-Built-in grep adds new flag --one-file-system. When enabled, the search will
 not cross file system boundaries relative to where it started from.
-Built-in grep adds new short flag-. as alias of long flag --hidden.
-Built-in grep adds new flag --no-unicode which disables Unicode-aware search.
-Built-in grep improves the output from --type-list. Now types are printed in
 bold texts which is easier to see.
-Syntax assets were updated to the latest. They improve some syntax highlight
 detection (for example, vimrc for Vim files) and solve some highlighting
 issues.
-Fix a broken pipe error when hgrep command is piped to a pager command like
 less. This happened when less exits earlier than hgrep command, for example,
 when you immediately quit a pager by q without scrolling the output to the end.
 In the case, hgrep still tried to output the result to stdout even if the pipe
 had already been closed and it caused a broken pipe error. In v0.2.1, hgrep
 correctly ignores such broken pipe errors.
-Fix --no-wrap deprecated flag was not removed at v0.2.0. Use --wrap instead if
 you used the flag.
-Fix checksum of downloaded package via Homebrew on arm64 macOS.
-Fix --type-list flag did not print types when a pattern argument is not given.
-(Dev) Move asset-builder tool directory to assets/builder.
-(Dev) The script to update test snapshots is now 25x faster.
-(Dev) CI job to run clippy and rustfmt is now 6x faster.
