majiayu000 Use fd for file search, rg for content search.
Common Patterns
Find files by name:
fd "pattern" [path]
fd -H "pattern" [path] # include hidden files
fd -e md -e txt "README" [path]
Search file contents:
rg -n "pattern" [path]
rg -i "pattern" # case-insensitive
rg -S "pattern" # smart case
rg --files-with-matches "pattern" # list files only
rg -n "pattern" --glob '!node_modules/*'
Find definitions:
rg -n "^(class|interface|function|def)\\s+Name\\b"
rg -n "^class\\s+ClassName\\b" --type python
Search with context:
rg -n "pattern" -A 2 -B 2
Combine searches:
fd -0 "Controller" -t f | xargs -0 rg -n "handleRequest"
