ghgrep 0.0.2

List all your Github repositories containing a filename matching a search pattern.

List all your Github repositories containing a filename matching a search pattern.

ghgrep is partially grep -l and partially find -name - you can pretend it is a special version of grep(1) in which files are actually repositories and each line of a file is actually a filename inside the repository.

Examples

Show all repositories with a readme:

ghgrep 'README.*'

List all repositories that have a file named ‘COPYING’:

ghgrep -f COPYING

List all repositories that don’t have a license file:

ghgrep -v (COPYING|LICENSE)

Installation

[$]> pip install ghgrep

or

[$]> easy_install ghgrep

Caveats

ghgrep will fail if you have any repositories without a branch named ‘master’. This is due to a bug in an upstream dependency.

Hacking

I highly recommend using virtualenv:

[$]> virtualenv --no-site-packages --distribute env
[$]> source env/bin/activate
[$]> pip install -r requirements.txt
[$]> pip install -e . # So we can import the version from inside bin/ .
