# NBrowse: .NET assembly query utility

## Overview

NBrowse is a command-line utility to browse and execute search queries in .NET

compiled assemblies. It exposes loaded assemblies through a standard set of

traversable entities (e.g. "assembly", "project", "type", "method", etc.) and

running C# statements to query anything you want to retrieve from them.

You can think of it as a stripped down [NDepend](https://www.ndepend.com/)

equivalent with no graphical interface.

This example will search in assembly `NBrowse.dll` for every type that

implements interface `IPrinter` and print them to standard output:

    $ dotnet NBrowse.CLI.dll '

        project // From current project

            .Assemblies // ...pick all loaded assemblies

            .SelectMany(a => a.Types) // ...find their declared types

            .Where(t => // ...keep those implementing interface `IPrinter`

                t.Interfaces.Any(i => i.Name == "IPrinter"))' NBrowse.dll

## Usage

Download latest [release](https://github.com/r3c/nbrowse/releases) from GitHub

or checkout code and build using your preferred

[.NET](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download) SDK.

Once you have a NBrowse.CLI executable file, run it with `-h` command line

argument to display help.

    $ dotnet NBrowse.CLI -h
