vimgrep on files in 'path'
Hi there,
I wonder if there is any "grep" like counterpart for the ":find" command in
vim. Today, ":find" helps one find any file in the 'path'. It would be nice
to perform a search for a pattern in the files reachable via 'path'. I
could then invoke, say,
:findgrep /mypattern/ **/*def.h
..to grep for "mypattern" in files reachable via 'path' that ends in
"def.h".
I tried to script it by passing the filenames to ":vimgrep" using:
:exe 'vim/mypattern/'. join(getcompletion('**/*def.h', 'file_in_path'),
" ")
..but getcompletion() sometimes does not give me the full path leading to
errors.
Regards,
-Arun

Re: vimgrep on files in 'path'
Hi!
You could use the arglist for this.
I'm not sure how to set it from a path but I think you'll find a way to do it.
Once your arglist is set, use `vimgrep /pattern/ ##` to grep the files in the
arglist.
Regards,
Tris'

That should work, shouldn't it? Or what is your issue with it?
My current vim.ctags looks like this:
--kinddef-vim=g,vim9global,Vim 9 global variables
--kinddef-vim=K,vim9const,Vim 9 constants
--kinddef-vim=L,vim9class,Vim 9 class
--kinddef-vim=I,vim9interface,Vim 9 interface
--regex-vim=/^export\s+def\s+([^(]+)/\1/f/
--regex-vim=/^\s*(g:\w+)\b/\1/g,vim9global/
--regex-vim=/^(export\s+)?(const|final)\s+(\w+)/\3/K,vim9const/
--regex-vim=/^\s*(export\s+)?(abstract\s+)?class\s+(\w+)/\3/L,vim9class/
--regex-vim=/^\s*(export\s+)?interface\s+(\w+)/\2/I,vim9interface/
That works with Universal Ctags 6.0.0, as confirmed by:
uctags --list-kinds=Vim
which outputs:
a autocommand groups
c user-defined commands
f function definitions
m maps
v variable definitions
n vimball filename
C constant definitions
g Vim 9 global variables
K Vim 9 constants
L Vim 9 class
I Vim 9 interface
In my `vimrc` I set the path to the executable:
g:tagbar_ctags_bin = '/opt/local/bin/uctags'
and for Vim tags:
g:tagbar_type_vim = {
'kinds': [
'L:classes',
'f:functions and methods',
'v:variables:1:0',
'g:global variables',
'K:constants',
'c:commands:0:0',
'a:autocommand groups:1',
'm:maps:1:0',
],
}
Life.
