## Provider/Tag Autocompletion



Autocompletion is supported for providers and tags. To set up autocompletion:



### Bash Linux



```zsh

s --completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/s

```



### Bash MacOS



```zsh

s --completion bash > /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/s

```



### Zsh



Generate a `_s` completion script and put it somewhere in your `$fpath`:



```zsh

s --completion zsh > /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions/_s

```



### Fish



```zsh

s --completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/s.fish

```



### Powershell



```powershell

(& s --completion powershell) | Out-String | Invoke-Expression

```



## Advanced



Setup an alias in your `.profile` for your favorite providers.



```bash

alias sa="s -p amazon"

alias sw="s -p wikipedia"

```



Use w3m to find cats instead of just your default browser.



```zsh

s -b w3m cats

```



Search for conspiracy theories in incognito mode.



```zsh

s -b "chromium --incognito" conspiracy theories

s -b "firefox --private-window" conspiracy theories

```



Search in a specific subreddit.



```zsh

s -p reddit /r/cscareerquestions best startups.

```



## Server Mode



A web interface is also provided. Just pass the `-s` flag.



Start a server on port 8080 (default).



```zsh

s -s

```



Start a server with TLS on port 8443.



```zsh

s -s -c /path/to/cert.pem -k /path/to/key.pem --port 8443

```

## Configuration



To setup your own default configuration just create `~/.config/s/config`. The configuration file is in UCL format.



For more information about UCL visit:

[https://github.com/vstakhov/libucl](https://github.com/vstakhov/libucl)



The following keys are supported:



* blacklist (array of providers to exclude)

* binary (binary to launch search URI)

* cert (path to cert.pem for TLS)

* customProviders (array of custom providers)

* key (path to key.pem for TLS)

* output (output only mode)

* port (server port)

* provider (search provider)

* tag (search tag)

* verbose (verbose mode)

* whitelist (array of providers to include)



Set your default provider to duckduckgo:



```ucl

provider: duckduckgo

```



To only search a few providers:



```ucl

whitelist: [google, amazon, wikipedia]

```



To exclude providers you don't need:



```ucl

blacklist: [dumpert]

```



To add a custom provider:



```ucl

customProviders [

  {

    name: example

    url: "http://example.com?q=%s"

    tags: [example]

  }

]

```



Custom providers require a few things:



* An alphanumeric name. `^[a-zA-Z0-9_]*$`

* A `%s` token for the query string.

* A valid URL scheme.
