Demos, Use case

Basic demo

Using predefined patterns

Filtering content between sections

Get matches from url source

Display matches in slide mode

Find repos belonging to specific user

Displaying first and last match

Hiding lines before and after match

Specifying starting/ending line from a source to be used as a content

$ regexp-it-cli --file "samples/awesome-react.md" --regexp ".*lightweight.*" -e -m -q --starting-line-number 130
$ regexp-it-cli --file "samples/awesome-react.md" --regexp ".*lightweight.*" -e -m -q --starting-line-number 130 --ending-line-number 155
$ regexp-it-cli --file "samples/awesome-react.md" --regexp ".*lightweight.*" -e -m -q --sln 130 --eln 155
$ regexp-it-cli --file "samples/awesome-react.md" --regexp ".*lightweight.*" -e -m -q --ending-line-number 155

Screenshots

Example with a source using \b\w{7,8}\b regular expression

Example with a file source

Example using a predefined pattern import using the following options: --regexp-pattern import --only-matched-parts

Example using the .*security.* regexp with --only-matched-partsand--highlight false` options for awesome-dotnet's Readme file as a source (see full markdown file content in raw mode)

Example using the .*computer science.* regexp and --only-matched-parts option for example md file as a source (you can show full markdown file content in here or in raw mode)
