dotfiles VS ripgrep

True, but you can represent that in the db as a a CLI invocation to run in a subshell.

The big gain from something like carapace or my theoretical SQLite-based completion system is faster startup time. I had to remove zsh-completions from my shell setup as it added too much to the startup time (https://github.com/bbkane/dotfiles/blob/master/zsh/README_no...)

"small embeddable dynamic languages" are usually used to configure or program other larger compiled applications. This is bes understood by example:

https://create.roblox.com/docs/tutorials/scripting/basic-scr... - make a mini game in Roblox

https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module?tab=readme-ov-... - configure and extend NGINX

https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/config/lua/general.html - make your terminal more useful (my personal config changes the tab color based on the process name - https://github.com/bbkane/dotfiles/blob/master/wezterm/dot-c...

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MQBr9hwf0BY - configure your text editor

I switched to iTerm2 a few years ago due to blurry fonts on zoom with Terminal.app . Wonder if that's still a problem?

A few months ago I switched to WezTerm and, after some config wrestling, I've been very happy using it (https://github.com/bbkane/dotfiles/tree/master/wezterm).

Yes, but it's super awkward to actually use day to day

I've got something of a wrapper script at https://github.com/bbkane/dotfiles/blob/8573e44d0f9fb5ddcbdc...

It doesn't read from files unfortunately, but https://openobserve.ai/ is very easy to set up locally (single binary) and send otel logs/metrics/traces to.

Here's how I run it locally for my little shovel project - https://github.com/bbkane/shovel#run-the-webapp-locally-with... .

Also linked from that README is an Ansible playbook to start OpenObserve as a systems service on a Linux VM.

Alternatively, see the shovel codebase I linked above for a "stdout" TracerProvider. You could do something like that to save to a file, and then use a tool to prettify the JSON. I have a small script to format json logs at https://github.com/bbkane/dotfiles/blob/2df9af5a9bbb40f2e101...

That sounds super similar my setup ( https://github.com/bbkane/dotfiles/tree/master/zsh ). I'll check out a few of those I haven't yet.

Here's a small script I use often to tag commits with Git.

It shows the current status, lists out the most recent tags, prompts for a new tab and message, and finally pushes.

Everything is colorized so it's easy to read and I use it quite often for Golang projects.

Ooh I'm doing this too, but with Python to add a "category" field (based mostly on description), nushell to munge the CSV into more CSVs so I can build html charts and tables with this script. in my opinion, transforming the two original CSVs (checking account and credit card history) into the html doc with all the charts is best done as this sort of pipeline so you can replace bits as you find better alternatives (for example I started with SQLite instead of nushell for the "child CSV" parts)

I use https://github.com/bbkane/dotfiles/blob/master/bin_common/bin_common/git_lines_changed_tsv.sh to turn this into a tsv which can then be charted by piping to https://github.com/bbkane/dotfiles/blob/master/bin_common/bin_common/scatterplot.py .

ripgrep - https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep

Basic code searching skills seems like something new developers are never explicitly taught, but which is an absolutely crucial skill to build early on.

I guess the knowledge progression I would recommend would look something kind this:

- Learning about Ctrl+F, which works basically everywhere.

- Transitioning to ripgrep https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep - I wouldn't even call this optional, it's truly an incredible and very discoverable tool. Requires keeping a terminal open, but that's a good thing for a newbie!

- Optional, but highly recommended: Learning one of the powerhouse command line editors. Teenage me recommended Emacs; current me recommends vanilla vim, purely because some flavor of it is installed almost everywhere. This is so that you can grep around and edit in the same window.

- In the same vein, moving back from ripgrep and learning about good old fashioned grep, with a few flags rg uses by default: `grep -r` for recursive search, `grep -ri` for case insensitive recursive search, and `grep -ril` for case insensitive recursive "just show me which files this string is found in" search. Some others too, season to taste.

- Finally hitting the wall with what ripgrep can do for you and switching to an actual indexed, dedicated code search tool.

live grep: ripgrep

The world has moved on though to opinionated tools, and Rust isn't even the furthest in that direction (That would be Go). The equivalent of those two lines in Cargo.toml would be this example of a basic configuration from the jacoco-maven-plugin: https://www.jacoco.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/examples/build/pom.x... - That's 40 lines in the section to do the "defaults".

Yes, you could add a load of config for files to include/exclude from coverage and so on, but the idea that that's a norm is way more common in Java projects than other languages. Like here's some example Cargo.toml files from complicated Rust projects:

Servo: https://github.com/servo/servo/blob/main/Cargo.toml

rust-gdext: https://github.com/godot-rust/gdext/blob/master/godot-core/C...

ripgrep: https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/blob/master/Cargo.toml

socketio: https://github.com/1c3t3a/rust-socketio/blob/main/socketio/C...

I'm not clear on why you're seeing the results you are. It could be because your haystack is so small that you're mostly just measuring noise. ripgrep 14 did introduce some optimizations in workloads like this by reducing match overhead, but I don't think it's anything huge in this case. (And I just tried ripgrep 13 on the same commands above and the timings are similar if a tiny bit slower.)
