StructuralSearch - An easy-to-use library for structural search and replace in text in any programming language.
If you like or are using this project please give it a star. Thanks!
Forget about regular expressions and *enjoy searching
- Describe search pattern🔎
// Just text and placeholders var template = StructuralSearch.ParseFindTemplate("void $methodName$($params$)")
- Find it in any text📄
// All the matches are already here var results = template.ParseString("void MyMethodName(int value1, double value2)"
- Enjoy the search results📑
// The found text part parseResult.Match.Value // void MyMethodName(int value1, double value2) // The exact coordinates of the match parseResult.Match.Column // Start 1, End 45 parseResult.Match.Line // Start 1, End 1 parseResult.Match.Offset // Start 0, End 44 // Placeholders parseResult.Placeholders // { "methodName" : "MyMethodName" }, { "params": "int value1, double value2" } // The exact coordinates of each placeceholdder parseResult.Placeholders[0].Column // Start 6, End 18 parseResult.Placeholders[0].Line // Start 1, End 1 parseResult.Placeholders[0].Offset // Start 5, End 17
