Adding general "search" option

Open itay opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

I was wondering if it is possible (and if you had any plans) to add a general "search" option that can just search for things in the codebase. Examples might be searching in comments, or searching for things like someVariable->someFunction(), etc. It would be nice to use something like what Hound uses (the trigram index): https://github.com/etsy/hound

I am so far using google (press enter in the search input and you'll be redirected to google) I implemented a custom search by building a word index. But that index was too big for my taste.

That unfortunately wouldn't work for us - we are going to be running this internally and obviously Google can't see it.

Thanks for your input. As a commercial license holder you will be able to get a preview of a (server-side) search daemon we have implemented (probably in the next weeks/months).

Please contact us via e-mail :)

I'm also interested in that.
