If you put configuration file on the following directories, pt use option in the file.
- $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pt/config.toml
- $HOME/.ptconfig.toml
- .ptconfig.toml (current directory)
The file is TOML format like the following.
color = true
context = 3
ignore = ["dir1", "dir2"]
color-path = "1;34"
The options are same as command line options.
You can use pt with Unite.vim.
nnoremap <silent> ,g :<C-u>Unite grep:. -buffer-name=search-buffer<CR>
if executable('pt')
let g:unite_source_grep_command = 'pt'
let g:unite_source_grep_default_opts = '--nogroup --nocolor'
let g:unite_source_grep_recursive_opt = ''
let g:unite_source_grep_encoding = 'utf-8'
endif
You can use pt with pt.el, which can be installed from MELPA.
$ go get -u github.com/monochromegane/the_platinum_searcher/...
Download from the following url.
Or, you can use Homebrew (Only macOS).
$ brew install pt
pt
is an alias for the_platinum_searcher
in Homebrew.
