I use Apache NetBeans 13 for Drupal PHP development. Sometimes I need to find some text in a directory. The search works ok, but it always ignore .yml files. So it can search in a file without excluding yml. If I change extension of an .yml file the search works properly with it.
So how to make NetBeans to search in .yml files too?
I have a project that has hundreds of .c .h and .cpp files. I'd like to start using vscode with this project; however, I need to be able to tell vscode what files to actually include in the project (because depending on the build, many files are not included). Is there a way to force a file list into vscode without using the GUI/Add-File mechanism?
On the left-side bar in Jupyter Lab, I can search for a file in the current directory
However, I have to be in the exact folder to find a file.
I would like to search for the file recursively, or alternatively search through all files in the root directory. In this example, I would like to find file.txt even when searching from folder
Can this be done?
I have been using vscode and PlatformIO for a little while now.
I would like my .gitignore file to be:
.pioenvs
.piolibdeps
.vscode/
but for some reason the IDE insists on adding the following every time I start up:
.vscode/c_cpp_properties.json
.vscode/launch.json
I am already ignoring the entire .vscode directory, why is it valuable to ignore individual files within that directory?
When using emacs Projectile and helm-projectile, I am used to search for text inside the whole project. However is there a way to search only part of the project?
Something like:
search inside a subfolder only
search while excluding a subfolder
Yes you can exclude (sub) folders. Add a line in your .projectile:
-/sub/folder
So search inside a subfolder, I don't see something automatic. You could put project files in some subfolders (https://projectile.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration/#file-local-project-root-definitions) and switch projects.
For now I am using rgrep, which prompts for a string and a directory to find.
I would be happy to hear about an equivalent solution using ag, and I should mention I haven't yet dug into the link from #goromlagche (https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher#emacs).
Install helm-ag, this requires silversearcher-ag package; for debian apt install silversearcher-ag. And then you can
helm-do-ag to search inside a sub-folder/directory inside project
to ignore sub-folders/directories add them to either .gitignore or .hgignore if it is git and hg project respectively or add then to .projectile file, details here.
