Ack searches the named input FILEs (or standard input if no files are named, or the file name - is given) for lines containing a match to the given PATTERN. By default, ack prints the matching lines. Ack can also list files that would be searched, without actually searching them, to let you take advantage of ack's file-type filtering capabilities. =head1 FILE SELECTION I is intelligent about the files it searches. It knows about certain file types, based on both the extension on the file and, in some cases, the contents of the file. These selections can be made with the B<--type> option. With no file selections, I only searches files of types that it recognizes. If you have a file called F, and I doesn't know what a .wango file is, I won't search it. The B<-a> option tells I to select all files, regardless of type. Some files will never be selected by I, even with B<-a>, including: =over 4 =item * Backup files: Files ending with F<~>, or F<#*#> =item * Coredumps: Files matching F =back =head1 DIRECTORY SELECTION I descends through the directory tree of the starting directories specified. However, it will ignore the shadow directories used by many version control systems, and the build directories used by the Perl MakeMaker system. For a complete list of directories that do not get searched, run F. =head1 WHEN TO USE GREP I trumps I as an everyday tool 99% of the time, but don't throw I away, because there are times you'll still need it. I only searches through files of types that it recognizes. If it can't tell what type a file is, then it won't look. If that's annoying to you, use I. If you truly want to search every file and every directory, I won't do it. You'll need to rely on I. =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =item B<-a>, B<--all> Operate on all files, regardless of type (but still skip directories like F, F, etc.) =item B<-A I>, B<--after-context=I> Print I lines of trailing context after matching lines. =item B<-B I>, B<--after-context=I> Print I lines of leading context before matching lines. =item B<-C [I]>, B<--after-context[=I]> Print I lines (default 2) of context around matching lines. =item B<-c>, B<--count> Suppress normal output; instead print a count of matching lines for each input file. If B<-l> is in effect, it will only show the number of lines for each file that has lines matching. Without B<-l>, some line counts may be zeroes. =item B<--color>, B<--nocolor> B<--color> highlights the matching text. B<--nocolor> supresses the color. This is on by default unless the output is redirected, or running under Windows. =item B<-f> Only print the files that would be searched, without actually doing any searching. PATTERN must not be specified, or it will be taken as a path to search. =item B<--follow>, B<--nofollow> Follow or don't follow symlinks, other than whatever starting files or directories were specified on the command line. This is off by default. =item B<-g=I> Same as B<-f>, but only print files that match I. The entire path and filename are matched against I, and I is a Perl regular expression, not a shell glob. =item B<--group>, B<--nogroup> B<--group> groups matches by file name with. This is the default when used interactively. B<--nogroup> prints one result per line, like grep. This is the default when output is redirected. =item B<-H>, B<--with-filename> Print the filename for each match. =item B<-h>, B<--no-filename> Suppress the prefixing of filenames on output when multiple files are searched. =item B<--help> Print a short help statement. =item B<-i>, B<--ignore-case> Ignore case in the search strings. =item B<--line=I> Only print line I of each file. Multiple lines can be given with multiple B<--line> options or as a comma separated list (B<--line=3,5,7>). B<--line=4-7> also works. The lines are always output in ascending order, no matter the order given on the command line. =item B<-l>, B<--files-with-matches> Only print the filenames of matching files, instead of the matching text. =item B<-m=I>, B<--max-count=I> Stop reading a file after I matches. =item B<--man> Print this manual page. =item B<-n> No descending into subdirectories. =item B<-o> Show only the part of each line matching PATTERN (turns off text highlighting) =item B<--output=I> Output the evaluation of I for each line (turns off text highlighting) =item B<--passthru> Prints all lines, whether or not they match the expression. Highlighting will still work, though, so it can be used to highlight matches while still seeing the entire file, as in: # Watch a log file, and highlight a certain IP address $ tail -f ~/access.log | ack --passthru 123.45.67.89 =item B<--print0> Only works in conjunction with -f, -g, -l or -c (filename output). The filenames are output separated with a null byte instead of the usual newline. This is helpful when dealing with filenames that contain whitespace, e.g. # remove all files of type html ack -f --html --print0 | xargs -0 rm -f =item B<-Q>, B<--literal> Quote all metacharacters. PATTERN is treated as a literal. =item B<--rc=file> Specify a path to an alternate F<.ackrc> file. =item B<--sort-files> Sorts the found files lexically. Use this if you want your file listings to be deterministic between runs of I. =item B<--thpppt> Display the all-important Bill The Cat logo. Note that the exact spelling of B<--thpppppt> is not important. It's checked against a regular expression. =item B<--type=TYPE>, B<--type=noTYPE> Specify the types of files to include or exclude from a search. TYPE is a filetype, like I or I. B<--type=perl> can also be specified as B<--perl>, and B<--type=noperl> can be done as B<--noperl>. If a file is of both type "foo" and "bar", specifying --foo and --nobar will exclude the file, because an exclusion takes precedence over an inclusion. Type specifications can be repeated and are ORed together. See I for a list of valid types. =item B<-u, --unrestricted> All files and directories (including blib/, core.*, ...) are searched, nothing is skipped. =item B<-v>, B<--invert-match> Invert match: select non-matching lines =item B<--version> Display version and copyright information. =item B<-w>, B<--word-regexp> Force PATTERN to match only whole words. The PATTERN is wrapped with C<\b> metacharacters. =item B<-1> Stops after reporting first match of any kind. This is different from B<--max-count=1> or B<-m1>, where only one match per file is shown. Also, B<-1> works with B<-f> and B<-g>, where B<-m> does not. =back =head1 THE .ackrc FILE The F<.ackrc> file contains command-line options that are prepended to the command line before processing. Multiple options may live on multiple lines. Lines beginning with a # are ignored. A F<.ackrc> might look like this: # Always sort the files --sort-files # Always color, even if piping to a filter --color F looks in your home directory for the F<.ackrc>. You can specify another location with the F variable, below. =head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES =over 4 =item ACKRC Specifies the location of the F<.ackrc> file. If this file doesn't exist, F looks in the default location. =item ACK_OPTIONS This variable specifies default options to be placed in front of any explicit options on the command line. =item ACK_COLOR_FILENAME Specifies the color of the filename when it's printed in B<--group> mode. By default, it's "bold green". The recognized attributes are clear, reset, dark, bold, underline, underscore, blink, reverse, concealed black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, on_black, on_red, on_green, on_yellow, on_blue, on_magenta, on_cyan, and on_white. Case is not significant. Underline and underscore are equivalent, as are clear and reset. The color alone sets the foreground color, and on_color sets the background color. =item ACK_COLOR_MATCH Specifies the color of the matching text when printed in B<--color> mode. By default, it's "black on_yellow". See B for the color specifications. =back =head1 ACK & OTHER TOOLS =head2 Vim integration F integrates easily with the Vim text editor. Set this in your F<.vimrc> to use F instead of F: set grepprg=ack\ -a That examples uses C<-a> to search through all files, but you may use other default flags. Now you can search with F and easily step through the results in Vim: :grep Dumper perllib =cut =head1 GOTCHAS Note that FILES must still match valid selection rules. For example, ack something --perl foo.rb will search nothing, because I is a Ruby file. =head1 AUTHOR Andy Lester, C<< >> =head1 BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests to the issues list at Google Code: L =head1 ENHANCEMENTS All enhancement requests MUST first be posted to the ack-users mailing list at L. I will not consider a request without it first getting seen by other ack users. There is a list of enhancements I want to make to F in the ack issues list at Google Code: L Yes, we want to be able to specify our own filetypes, so you can say .snork files are recognized as Java, or whatever. Patches are always welcome, but patches with tests get the most attention. =head1 SUPPORT Support for and information about F can be found at: =over 4 =item * The ack homepage L =item * The ack issues list at Google Code L =item * AnnoCPAN: Annotated CPAN documentation L =item * CPAN Ratings L =item * Search CPAN L =item * Subversion repository L =back =head1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS How appropriate to have Inowledgements!
