This adds a `replacement` field to each submatch object in the JSON output. In effect, this extends the `-r/--replace` flag so that it works with `--json`. This adds a new field instead of replacing the match text (which is how the standard printer works) for maximum flexibility. This way, consumers of the JSON output can access the original match text (and always rely on it corresponding to the original match text) while also getting the replacement text without needing to do the replacement themselves. Closes #1872, Closes #2883
ripgrep core
This is the core ripgrep crate. In particular, main.rs is where the main
function lives.
Most of ripgrep core consists of two things:
- The definition of the CLI interface, including docs for every flag.
- Glue code that brings the
grep-matcher,grep-regex,grep-searcherandgrep-printercrates together to actually execute the search.
Currently, there are no plans to make ripgrep core available as an independent library. However, much of the heavy lifting of ripgrep is done via its constituent crates, which can be reused independent of ripgrep. Unfortunately, there is no guide or tutorial to teach folks how to do this yet.
