Easily search a git repo in a Node streamy way (by shelling out to git-grep(1)).
npm install git-grepjs
gitGrep(repoPath, options);
`
Where options can contain the following properties:
- rev: revision
- term: search term
Example:
`js
var gitGrep = require('git-grep');
var path = require('path');
var repoPath = path.resolve(process.env.REPO || (__dirname + '/.git'));
gitGrep(repoPath, {
rev: 'HEAD',
term: process.env.SEARCH_TERM || 'timestamped_migrations'
}).on('data', function(data) {
console.log(data);
}).on('error', function(err) {
throw err;
}).on('end', function() {
console.log("±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±");
console.log("That's all, folks!");
});
`
Sample output:
`bash
$ REPO=../rails/.git node example.js

line: '69',
text: 'mattr_accessor :timestamped_migrations, instance_writer: false' }
