| grep |
Search and optionally replace regexps in objects contents
Accepts many options:
--recurse recursive search
--maxdepth n descend at most n levels
--type metatype search only objects of meta type xxx
--owner xxxx objects owned by user xxxx
--newer /other/object objects modified more recently than other
--older /other/object objects modified less recently than other
--mmin n objects modified less than n minutes ago
--mtime n objects modified less than n days ago
--properties search in properties too
--replace xxxx replaces each occurence of the pattern
with the string xxx.
--invert invert the search: objects that don't match
the regexp are selected
--ignorecase ignore case: this is just for convenience since
it's always possible to use a pattern which
explicitly asks for ignoring case.
e.g.:
grep --recurse --ignorecase ¨^word" *_html
this one will search recursively for each document which
id ends in "_html" and which has "word" at the beginning of
a line, ignoring differences between UPPER and lower case.
grep --properties --type "DTML*" --type Folder somestring *
This one will search for "somestring" in all objects which
meta type is Folder or begins with "DTML" and their
properties.
The string to search for and the optionally replacing
string could be any regular expression defined by the
standard re python module.
Hint: You may use multiple --type or --owner arguments
and each can contain wildcards.
WARNING: don't forget to enclose your regexps between
single or double quotes or else some regexps
won't work as expected.
Caveats: If not given the --properties option, only
searches in the document_src() and title
attributes of objects that have a document_src
attribute (if not clear email me).
