A little Clojure library that provides regex-based file grepping and/or text substitution.
multigrep is available as a Maven artifact from Clojars.
$ clj -Sdeps '{:deps {com.github.pmonks/multigrep {:mvn/version "RELEASE"}}}'$ deps-try com.github.pmonks/multigrep$ lein try com.github.pmonks/multigrepThe multigrep functionality is provided by the multigrep.core namespace.
Require it in the REPL:
(require '[multigrep.core :as mg])Require it in your application:
(ns my-app.core
(:require [multigrep.core :as mg]))The library provides two functions - grep (for searching for text within files) and greplace! (for searching and replacing text within files).
The API documentation has full details, and the unit tests contain comprehensive usage examples.
API documentation is available here.
This project uses the git-flow branching strategy, with the caveat that the permanent branches are called main and dev, and any changes to the main branch are considered a release and auto-deployed (JARs to Clojars, API docs to GitHub Pages, etc.).
For this reason, all development must occur either in branch dev, or (preferably) in temporary branches off of dev. All PRs from forked repos must also be submitted against dev; the main branch is only updated from dev via PRs created by the core development team. All other changes submitted to main will be rejected.
The project was originally developed under my personal GitHub account. In early 2018 it was transferred to the clj-commons GitHub organisation, but then, as that group refined their scope and mission, it was determined that it no longer belonged there, and the project were transferred back in late 2021. During this time the build tooling for the project also changed from Leiningen to tools.build, which created further groupId churn (tools.build introduced special, useful semantics for com.github.username groupIds that don't exist with Leiningen or Clojars).
