The error message is as below:

$ s foo
[Error] exit status 1

While performing any sort of query i get the output:

Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0".

Will it be possible to allow usage of provider keywords like DuckDuckGo instead of duckduckgo? It would be helpful if providers can be case insensitive.

Great program!

I used Duckduckgo as my only primary engine (with !bangs to search other websites/search engines if necessary (example: !i poo party to search Google Images for "poo party").

I have noticed that !bangs work, but only if the exclamation point (the !bang) is placed after the letter string, not before. Example: s !w giraffe sends "weechat giraffe" to DDG, whereas s w! giraffe searches wikipedia for "giraffe", as intended. In the browser, either works.

I've been using !bangs with the exclamation point before the string for three years, and it will be difficult to retrain my muscle memory. Would it be possible to implement this feature, or might there be a way to hack it in?

For the time being, I'll try to get used to putting the ! after the string.

Thanks!

If you wanted to search github with query params, is that possible?

Some examples:

# works with no params
❯ s zquest -p github -o
https://github.com/search?utf8=✓&q=zquest
# doesnt work
❯ s zquestz extension:go -p github -o
https://github.com/search?utf8=✓&q=zquestz+extension%3Ago

# doesnt work with quotes around query string
~
❯ s "zquestz extension:go" -p github -o
https://github.com/search?utf8=✓&q=zquestz+extension%3Ago

# works without `utf8`
~
❯ open https://github.com/search?q=zquestz+extension%3Ago

Thanks for sharing your project.

Yeah I'm new to Go so bear with me. I installed the Go install stuff and set my $GOPATH, then followed the instructions in the readme and I am still getting "command not found" when I try to run it. The make commands appeared to work but idk why the s command isn't. I added the $GOPATH to my dotfiles, tried a fresh terminal window, but nah.

Doing this on a Mac running El Crappytan.

Like for spotify, you can use spotify:search:%s

It would be great if you could configure s to search Google, Wikipedia (and every site which offers more than one language) in a different language than english. Perhaps you could use a config file to save a pre-selection or use a switch like "s foo -lang=de", since -l is already used.

I would like to install this package via homebrew in OSX.
I'm now working to support this in here.

I sent the pull request, and got 2 CI errors.

==> audit problems
s:
 * Formula name conflicts with homebrew/emacs/s
 * GitHub repository too new (<30 days old)

Formula name conflicts with homebrew/emacs/s

homebrew official account has homebrew-emacs repository to manage the emacs dependencies. The package name 's' is already used in this Formula repository. So, we have to use another name. What name do you want to use to install?

$ brew install xxx

GitHub repository too new (<30 days old)

s is quite new project. So I will just wait few days and send pull request again.

The automated process for updating Homebrew formulas (brew bump-formula-pr) fails during its audit phase for v0.5.14. Specifically, the use of go_resource is now deprecated. Per the error below, is it possible to implement Go vendoring so that we can pull the latest version automatically?

We need to vendor all 3rd party dependencies. Ideally we use gvt for managing deps moving forward. A PR adding this would be great, otherwise I can get to it soon.

I wonder if it's possible to support a flag to specify opening a browser in incognito mode.

I would like to allow matching providers based off of the shortest unique inital substring of the provider's text.

Example:

s -p a -> s -p amazon
s -p d -> d could match digg, dockerhub or duckduckgo
s -p duc -> s -p duckduckgo

I will most likely implement this in a day or so, just thought I would open an issue for the eventual PR if you want that feature.

You have a very permissive license in the file LICENSE, but the bottom of README.md says "all rights reserved". Would you mind removing the obsolete one, whichever that is?

I have some trouble installing on Windows (no make tools, newest I can find are from 2006). So I tried the built s.exe, however I get the following error:

[Error] Failed to stat Stdin: GetFileInformationByHandle /dev/stdin: Incorrect function.

Could you provide install instruction for Windows? Perhaps something to add to the README.md?

This

To setup your own default configuration just create ~/.s/config.

looks a bit odd. Wouldn't it be better to have in it a more standard way, like ~/.config/s ?

I installed it in win10.
I can't find which file to change to config s

Currently the uninstall rule of the Makefile assumes that GOPATH contains a single path. This assumption breaks for multiple GOPATHs. See go/build.Context.SrcDir and path/filepath.SplitList for more details.

Relevant section of the Makefile:

uninstall:
    rm $(GOPATH)/bin/$(APPNAME)

Hello,

I'm BM. A very nice and polite guy.

How can I search sorted by date using s?

How about using this. It would be a lot faster to add providers this way. Will start work on it soon if you agree.

I know this is not very helpful, but when I try to search with s, nothing happens. If I run with -v, I get the search url. If I run with --verson I get the version s 0.5.6. In all cases, exit code 0.

I see your timezone is the opposite of mine. I can help you merging the PRs when your not online so we won't get huge merge conflicts. If you inform me correctly what you want with the project and what not I'm pretty sure I can do the job for you if you want. @zquestz

Hey,
I'm trying to use s-search -b w3m but I get the message: executable "w3m" not found in $PATH which it is.
I've also tried to set the config file in .config/s/config with "binary: /usr/bin/w3m"
With no luck, so far.
Is this a problem of the snap packaged version or am I doing something wrong?

Btw, I've also tried to use firefox instead with no luck, I get the same issue if I try -b with any browser.
Thanks,

There are two -k here

sudo should not be in there, let the build fail or tell the user they need sudo.
and why not just go install? the $GOPATH should already be defined by the user.

Hi, I noticed that in the latest update zsh completion is provided by generating it through a flag. I did so, and placed it in a _s file inside my $fpath with other completion files, and made it executable.

However, it's not recognising tab-completion; other files inside the same dir in $fpath are working.

Like Facebook or Youtube. It would be a lot easier to just type: fb or yt.

Non XFCE Desktops most likley only have xdg-open but not exo-open.
See: https://github.com/zquestz/s/blob/master/launcher/launcher.go#L12

This tool is installable via brew. in order to maintain go 1.17 support as well make maintenance easier could the maintainers please add go module support.

Homebrew/homebrew-core#47627

This would help users install the tool without having to include Go on their system.

Customize config file path

By specifying an alternate config file on the command line (like ssh -F):

s --config=/path/to/s/config <query> [flags]

Preferring $XDG_CONFIG_HOME as the user config dir, with ~/.config as fallback:

$XDG_CONFIG_HOME="/home/$USER/local/cfg" s <query> [flags]

It would be nice to search like:
s -p reddit -r cscareerquestions best startups 2016

which would search in reddit.com/r/cscareerquestions "best startups 2016"

I install s-search via home brew, 9.4M.

$ pwd
/usr/local/Cellar/s-search/0.5.11/bin
$ s --version
s 0.5.11
$ ll
total 9.4M

Hi,
I 'm confused if I should use s or surfraw . There is no comparison elsewhere!
Could you provide some features of s (pros and cons if possible) compared to surfraw or other CLI search tools (ddgr , googler .....)

EDIT: typos :(

I installed this package using brew and I try to use it and it tells me bash: subl: command not found I havent installed sublime text or anything like that and I cant find an alias so Im not sure whats going on.

Hello,

I'm BM. A very nice and polite guy.

Is it possible to search by date with s?

I want URL's from this week only using a specific keyword.

eg: I would like to add https://s.taobao.com/search?q=test for myself via cli.

It would be nice if s could return URL.
Something like this could be useful:

firefox --new-tab "$(s -u -p wikipedia rhinos)"

(-u or -r or whatever you think is better)

There are other examples.
What do you think?

Best regards.

Would be awesome to search shodan from s.

https://www.shodan.io/

How can I install s from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/s/ using yaourt or pacman?

I had this idea to have a config file for s just for the language and locale of the searches.
This way we can limit the provider list for each country.

Like the dumpert provider is probably never used for a person who isn't dutch and the arxiv provider vice versa.

For example we can just create something like a config file with the option to show only the providers for a special country like NL or RU or just simply ALL.

For example the config file can look as follow:

locale: NL
sitescountry: NL

If I want to just search in English I just change the above one or if I only want the list limit to one country I change the bottom one.

This way we can prevent that the provider list is getting way to big by adding just stuff that no one cares about in some countries and make it still clear.

Another benefit is that the autocomplete and the <tab> support will work a lot better if we have, for example, a lot of Russian sites added. It will be a lot more usefull to use and the list won't be that big this way.

What's your opinion about this?
