scoop-search's Introduction

scoop-search

Fast scoop search drop-in replacement 🚀

Installation

scoop install scoop-search

PowerShell hook

Instead of using scoop-search.exe <term> you can setup a hook that will run scoop-search.exe whenever you use native scoop search

Add this to your Powershell profile (usually located at $PROFILE)

Invoke-Expression (&scoop-search --hook)

CMD.exe wrapper

If you use cmd.exe you can use a wrapper script to do the same. Name this scoop.cmd and add it to a directory in your %PATH%

@echo off

if "%1" == "search" (
    call :search_subroutine %*
) else (
    powershell scoop.ps1 %*
)
goto :eof

:search_subroutine
set "args=%*"
set "newargs=%args:* =%"
scoop-search.exe %newargs%
goto :eof
