Examples

Search for puppies on google.

s puppies

Search for a wifi router on amazon

Provider Expansion

We can do partial matching of provider names. This searches Facebook for hamsters.

s -p fa hamsters

Or toasters on amazon.

s -p am toasters

Provider Autocompletion

Autocompletion for providers is supported. For setting up autocompletion:

  1. Have s installed
  2. Add the following lines to ~/.bash_profile or ~/.zshrc
if [ -f $GOPATH/src/github.com/zquestz/s/autocomplete/s-completion.bash ]; then
    . $GOPATH/src/github.com/zquestz/s/autocomplete/s-completion.bash
fi

Now you are good to go.

s -p ba<TAB><TAB>
baidu     bandcamp
Fish

Alternatively, if you use fish, the following will work:

mkdir -p ~/.config/fish/completions
ln -s $GOPATH/src/github.com/zquestz/s/autocomplete/s.fish ~/.config/fish/completions/s.fish

Advanced

Setup an alias in your .profile for your favorite providers.

alias sa="s -p amazon"
alias sw="s -p wikipedia"

Use w3m to find cats instead of just your default browser.

s -b w3m cats

Search for conspiracy theories in incognito mode.

s -b "chromium --incognito" conspiracy theories
s -b "firefox --private-window" conspiracy theories

Search in a specific subreddit.

s -p reddit /r/cscareerquestions best startups.

Server Mode

A web interface is also provided. Just pass the -s flag.

Start a server on port 8080 (default).

s -s

Start a server with TLS on port 8443.

s -s -c /path/to/cert.pem -k /path/to/key.pem --port 8443

Feel free to try it out at https://jumps.io/.

Configuration

To setup your own default configuration just create ~/.s/config. The configuration file is in UCL format. JSON is also fully supported as UCL can parse JSON files.

The following keys are supported:

  • blacklist (array of providers to exclude)
  • binary (binary to launch search URI)

Set your default provider to duckduckgo:

To only search a few providers:

To exclude providers you don't need:

blacklist: [dumpert]

To add a custom provider:

customProviders [
  {
    name: example
    url: "http://example.com?q=%s"
  }
