I know I can use "SPC p f" to search for a file in the current project, which means git repository for me. Now, in my current project we have multiple git repos, and I'd like to search for files in all of them. Luckily, they all reside in the same directory (e.g. ~/projects/x/).
Is there a command in Spacemacs that lets me search for files in all the git repos under ~/projects/x?
I believe you can do it with SPC s f. When you activate it:
Prompts you to select a directory to search
Allow you to enter a search string, showing results in the HELM window
In general, SPC s shows all keybindings for general search, where f is for files.
I dug through the available helm commands again and found helm-projects-find-files, which does exactly what I want.
I put this in ~/.spacemacs into the function dotspacemacs/user-config:
(setq-default helm-locate-project-list (list "~/projects"))
(spacemacs/set-leader-keys "fm" 'helm-projects-find-files))
For searching in those files, you can use spacemacs/helm-project-smart-do-search-in-dir:
Put this somewhere in ~/.spacemacs:
(defun mine/search-in-projects ()
"Search in all my projects (i.e. what is checked out in ~/projects)"
(interactive)
(spacemacs/helm-project-smart-do-search-in-dir "~/projects"))
And this in ~/.spacemacs into the function dotspacemacs/user-config:
(spacemacs/set-leader-keys "sm" 'mine/search-in-projects)
(I used SPC-sm as key combination because the project name starts with an "m").
Oh, I just realized I can just put a marker that projectile respects (like a .projectile file) into my ~/projects/x directory. Now I can switch to the ~/projects/x project, and still am able to also narrow it to specific sub-projects by selecting e.g. ~/projects/x/p1/.
So all I needed to do was:
touch ~/projects/.projectile
Update: I realized that when doing this, I can't narrow down to a sub-project. So it's not really the best answer.
You can put this in your .spacemacs to bind SPC p f to search all projects.

There are four "location" options to Find in Path: Project, Module, Directory, and Scope. I would have thought that the most restrictive would be Directory but instead it is the only one I am seeing any results:
Directory
The expected results can be seen by doing a search from the command line in the root of the project:
$find . -name \*.js | xargs grep "n createSTFT(" 2>/dev/null
./js/cough-app-local-audio-file.js:function createSTFT(buffer) {
./js/testOnsets.js:function createSTFT(buffer) {
./js/cough-local-file.headless.js:export function createSTFT(buffer) {
I would expect the remaining types of searches to find all of those results - but instead they find .. nothing ??
Project
Module
All Places
So the only one that makes any sense is Directory .. but even that one is missing results.. What are these options supposed to do and why are they not showing the expected results? I am on Intellij 2019.3.5 Ultimate
Make sure the module was imported with the right type and has the content and/or source roots configured properly. Find in Path will work within the module roots only when you have specified the option to search in a project or in a module.
You can remove the module and add a new one or adjust the roots configuration.
First, this question relates to Oracle SQL Developer 3.2, not SQL*Plus or iSQL, etc. I've done a bunch of searching but haven't found a straight answer.
I have several collections of scripts that I'm trying to automate (and btw, my SQL experience is pretty basic and mostly MS-based). The trouble I'm having is executing them by a relative path. for example, assume this setup:
scripts/A/runAll.sql
| /A1.sql
| /A2.sql
|
/B/runAll.sql
/B1.sql
/B2.sql
I would like to have a file scripts/runEverything.sql something like this:
##/A/runAll.sql
##/B/runAll.sql
scripts/A/runAll.sql:
##/A1.sql
##/A2.sql
where "##", I gather, means relative path in SQL*Plus.
I've fooled around with making variables but without much luck. I have been able to do something similar using '&1' and passing in the root directory. I.e.:
scripts/runEverything.sql:
#'&1/A/runAll.sql' '&1/A'
#'&1/B/runAll.sql' '&1/B'
and call it by executing this:
#'c:/.../scripts/runEverything.sql' 'c:/.../scripts'
But the problem here has been that B/runAll.sql gets called with the path: c:/.../scripts/A/B.
So, is it possible with SQL Developer to make nested calls, and how?
This approach has two components:
-Set-up the active SQL Developer worksheet's folder as the default directory.
-Open a driver script, e.g. runAll.sql, (which then changes the default directory to the active working directory), and use relative paths within the runAll.sql script to call sibling scripts.
Set-up your scripts default folder. On the SQL Developer toolbar, Use this navigation:
Tools > Preferences
In the preference dialog box, navigate to Database > Worksheet > Select default path to look for scripts.
Enter the default path to look for scripts as the active working directory:
"${file.dir}"
Create a script file and place all scripts associated in it:
runAll.sql
A1.sql
A2.sql
The content of runAll.sql would include:
#A1.sql;
#A2.sql;
To test this approach, in SQL Developer, click on File and navigate and open the script\runAll.sql file.
Next, select all (on the worksheet), and execute.
Through the act of navigating and opening the runAll.sql worksheet, the default file folder becomes "script".
I don't have access to SQL Developer right now so i can't experiment with the relative paths, but with the substitution variables I believe the problem you're seeing is that the positional variables (i.e. &1) are redefined by each start or #. So after your first #runAll, the parent script sees the same &1 that the last child saw, which now includes the /A.
You can avoid that by defining your own variable in the master script:
define path=&1
#'&path/A/runAll.sql' '&path/A'
#'&path/B/runAll.sql' '&path/B'
As long as runAll.sql, and anything that runs, does not also (re-define) path this should work, and you just need to choose a unique name if there is the risk of a clash.
Again I can't verify this but I'm sure I've done exactly this in the past...
you need to provide the path of the file as String , give the patch in double quote it will work
**
For Example
#"C:\Users\Arpan Saini\Zions R2\Reports Statements and Notices\Patch\08312017_Patch_16.2.3.17\DB Scripts\snsp.sql";
**
Execution of Sql
#yourPath\yourFileName.sql
How to pass parameters in file
#A1.sql; (Parameter)
#A2.sql; (Parameter)
This is not absolute or relative path issue. It's the SQL interpreter issue, where by default it will look for files which are having .sql extention.
Please make sure to modify the file name to file_name.sql
Ex: if workspace is having file name called "A", then move the file from A to "A.sql"
I want an entry for release_notes.txt or release_notes.html in the start-menu. When I select the release_notes entry in the menu the text file shall apear in notepad or the html fill in a web browser. But I can't figure out how to write the commands in CMakeLists.txt to do that.
Are you using CPACK_NSIS_MENU_LINKS?
Or you could use CPACK_NSIS_EXTRA_INSTALL_COMMANDS...
Not sure if current versions of CMake provide an easier/different way, but this is what we do:
SET( CPACK_NSIS_CREATE_ICONS_EXTRA
"
CreateShortcut \\\"$SMPROGRAMS\\\\$STARTMENU_FOLDER\\\\SDK Documentation.lnk\\\" \\\"$INSTDIR\\\\doc\\\\html\\\\index.html\\\"
" )
SET( CPACK_NSIS_DELETE_ICONS_EXTRA
"
Delete \\\"$SMPROGRAMS\\\\$MUI_TEMP\\\\SDK Documentation.lnk\\\"
" )
Similar to Johannes' answer, CPACK_NSIS_CREATE_ICONS_EXTRA and CPACK_NSIS_DELETE_ICONS_EXTRA is a flexible way to manage shortcuts (Start menu, desktop, etc.), including adding command-line arguments if required. This short article gives a bit more information. It uses a slightly different path for the delete link with an explanation for why. It also includes links to NSIS documentation to show other places you can create shortcuts, etc.
The Story So Far
I've got a nice solution with a desktop application project, a few library projects, and a couple of development tools projects (also desktop applications). At the moment, my build server outputs all of the code into one OutputPath. So we end up with
drop-x.y.z\
Company.MainApplication.exe <-- main application
Company.MainApplicationCore.dll <-- libraries
Helper.exe <-- developer tools
Grapher.exe
Parser.exe
... <-- the rest of the output
But, we're growing up and people outside of our team want access to our tools. So I want to organize the output. I decided that what we would want is a different OutputPath per executable project
drop-x.y.z\
Company.MainApplication\
Company.MainApplication.exe <-- main application
Company.MainApplicationCore.dll <-- libraries
... <-- application specific output
Helper\
Helper.exe <-- developer tools
... <-- tool specific output
Grapher\
Grapher.exe
...
Parser\
Parser.exe
...
What I Did
I found this simple command. I like it because it retains all the Solution working-dir context that makes msbuild a pain.
msbuild /target:<ProjectName>
For example, from my solution root as a working directory, I would call
PS> msbuild /target:Helper /property:OutputPath="$pwd\out\Helper"
I'm testing this from PowerShell, so that $pwd resolves to the full path to my working directory, or the Solution root in this case. I get the output I desire.
However, when I run this command
PS> msbuild /target:Company.MainApplication /property:OutputPath="$pwd\out\Company.MainApplication"
I get the following error output (there's no more information, I ran with /verbosity:diagnostic)
The target "Company.MainApplication" does not exist in the project.
What I Need
The command fails on any project with a dot or dots in the name. I tried with many combinations of working directories and properties. I tried several ways of escaping the property values. I also tried running the command from a <Task> in a targets file.
I need to know either
A) How to fix this command to work property
B) How to achieve the same output with minimal friction
Try using an underscore as an escape character for the dot in the target parameter, e.g.
msbuild /target:Company_MainApplication /property:OutputPath="$pwd\out\Company.MainApplication"
Specify the target after the -target: switch in the format :. If the project name contains any of the characters %, $, #, ;, ., (, ), or ', replace them with an _ in the specified target name.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/how-to-build-specific-targets-in-solutions-by-using-msbuild-exe?view=vs-2019
Dan Nolan's answer and comments are correct. Just want to supplement the Microsoft documentation.
The /targets: switch is to identify a <Target to run in the project file. You need to supply your .csproj file as a an argument that is not prefixed by a /xx option marker.
You might also want to work based on the .sln file. In that case, you still dont specify the project in the .sln to build in this manner. I'll leave you to search up the correct syntax in case that's what you end up doing.
So I found the question about how to view the change history of a file, but the change history of this particular file is huge and I'm really only interested in the changes of a particular method. So would it be possible to see the change history for just that particular method?
I know this would require git to analyze the code and that the analysis would be different for different languages, but method/function declarations look very similar in most languages, so I thought maybe someone has implemented this feature.
The language I'm currently working with is Objective-C and the SCM I'm currently using is git, but I would be interested to know if this feature exists for any SCM/language.
Recent versions of git log learned a special form of the -L parameter:
-L :<funcname>:<file>
Trace the evolution of the line range given by "<start>,<end>" (or the function name regex <funcname>) within the <file>. You may not give any pathspec limiters. This is currently limited to a walk starting from a single revision, i.e., you may only give zero or one positive revision arguments. You can specify this option more than once.
...
If “:<funcname>” is given in place of <start> and <end>, it is a regular expression that denotes the range from the first funcname line that matches <funcname>, up to the next funcname line. “:<funcname>” searches from the end of the previous -L range, if any, otherwise from the start of file. “^:<funcname>” searches from the start of file.
In other words: if you ask Git to git log -L :myfunction:path/to/myfile.c, it will now happily print the change history of that function.
Using git gui blame is hard to make use of in scripts, and whilst git log -G and git log --pickaxe can each show you when the method definition appeared or disappeared, I haven't found any way to make them list all changes made to the body of your method.
However, you can use gitattributes and the textconv property to piece together a solution that does just that. Although these features were originally intended to help you work with binary files, they work just as well here.
The key is to have Git remove from the file all lines except the ones you're interested in before doing any diff operations. Then git log, git diff, etc. will see only the area you're interested in.
Here's the outline of what I do in another language; you can tweak it for your own needs.
Write a short shell script (or other program) that takes one argument -- the name of a source file -- and outputs only the interesting part of that file (or nothing if none of it is interesting). For example, you might use sed as follows:
#!/bin/sh
sed -n -e '/^int my_func(/,/^}/ p' "$1"
Define a Git textconv filter for your new script. (See the gitattributes man page for more details.) The name of the filter and the location of the command can be anything you like.
$ git config diff.my_filter.textconv /path/to/my_script
Tell Git to use that filter before calculating diffs for the file in question.
$ echo "my_file diff=my_filter" >> .gitattributes
Now, if you use -G. (note the .) to list all the commits that produce visible changes when your filter is applied, you will have exactly those commits that you're interested in. Any other options that use Git's diff routines, such as --patch, will also get this restricted view.
$ git log -G. --patch my_file
Voilà!
One useful improvement you might want to make is to have your filter script take a method name as its first argument (and the file as its second). This lets you specify a new method of interest just by calling git config, rather than having to edit your script. For example, you might say:
$ git config diff.my_filter.textconv "/path/to/my_command other_func"
Of course, the filter script can do whatever you like, take more arguments, or whatever: there's a lot of flexibility beyond what I've shown here.
The closest thing you can do is to determine the position of your function in the file (e.g. say your function i_am_buggy is at lines 241-263 of foo/bar.c), then run something to the effect of:
git log -p -L 200,300:foo/bar.c
This will open less (or an equivalent pager). Now you can type in /i_am_buggy (or your pager equivalent) and start stepping through the changes.
This might even work, depending on your code style:
git log -p -L /int i_am_buggy\(/,+30:foo/bar.c
This limits the search from the first hit of that regex (ideally your function declaration) to thirty lines after that. The end argument can also be a regexp, although detecting that with regexp's is an iffier proposition.
git log has an option '-G' could be used to find all differences.
-G Look for differences whose added or removed line matches the
given <regex>.
Just give it a proper regex of the function name you care about. For example,
$ git log --oneline -G'^int commit_tree'
40d52ff make commit_tree a library function
81b50f3 Move 'builtin-*' into a 'builtin/' subdirectory
7b9c0a6 git-commit-tree: make it usable from other builtins
The correct way is to use git log -L :function:path/to/file as explained in eckes answer.
But in addition, if your function is very long, you may want to see only the changes that various commit had introduced, not the whole function lines, included unmodified, for each commit that maybe touch only one of these lines. Like a normal diff does.
Normally git log can view differences with -p, but this not work with -L.
So you have to grep git log -L to show only involved lines and commits/files header to contextualize them. The trick here is to match only terminal colored lines, adding --color switch, with a regex. Finally:
git log -L :function:path/to/file --color | grep --color=never -E -e "^(^[\[[0-9;]*[a-zA-Z])+" -3
Note that ^[ should be actual, literal ^[. You can type them by pressing ^V^[ in bash, that is Ctrl + V, Ctrl + [. Reference here.
Also last -3 switch, allows to print 3 lines of output context, before and after each matched line. You may want to adjust it to your needs.
Show function history with git log -L :<funcname>:<file> as showed in eckes's answer and git doc
If it shows nothing, refer to Defining a custom hunk-header to add something like *.java diff=java to the .gitattributes file to support your language.
Show function history between commits with git log commit1..commit2 -L :functionName:filePath
Show overloaded function history (there may be many function with same name, but with different parameters) with git log -L :sum\(double:filepath
git blame shows you who last changed each line of the file; you can specify the lines to examine so as to avoid getting the history of lines outside your function.
