# grip-grab (`gg`) 🧤

A fast, more lightweight ripgrep alternative for daily use cases.

```sh
❯ gg "\b(Read|Write)Half[^<]" tokio/src
```

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/13406bea-b6f2-4629-b814-366713a8d90d

## Installation
### Using Cargo
```bash
cargo install grip-grab
```

**NOTE:** if using zsh with the `git` plugin, you might need to unalias `gg` in order for grip-grab's `gg` to work:
```sh
echo 'unalias gg' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc
```

## Benchmarks

### The general idea
_With default settings for both tools, `gg` will typically be faster than `rg` on small to moderatly sized codebases (<= a couple milion lines) running on everyday machines because of its default thread heuristic. `rg` will typically be faster out of the box on larger corpora (think a checkout of the linux kernel) and machines with more logical cpus. Note that you still can tweak `gg` with the `-T` argument to achieve similar performance in those cases._

_[The following discussion with ripgrep's author on HackerNews](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41380065) might also provide more insights regarding this tool's performance (including more benchmarks across different machines and corpora)._

*NOTE*: _The following benchmarks were run on an M3 Macbook Pro with 16GB of RAM and 8 logical CPUs._

These typically take <5ms on the tokio repository which is too low to benchmark with a tool like hyperfine.

## Notes
This lightweight utility is largely based on a couple of crates from the extraordinary [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep) tool.
Its aim is to provide a minimal and lightweight version that can be easily integrated in other programs for search-related purproses.
