# sifr: search in files 

[![Lifecycle: maturing](https://img.shields.io/badge/lifecycle-maturing-blue.svg)](https://lifecycle.r-lib.org/articles/stages.html)

sifr is a tool for searching text strings and regular expression patterns 

recursively in directory trees from within R. It is mainly a convenience

utility for **interactive use**.

sifr supports colored console 

output, RStudio source markers, and can also return the search results as

a `data.frame` for further processing. In addition, sifr provides 

`sed_replace()` on supported platforms (such as Linux, BSD, macOS) for replacing 

regex patterns across directory trees via [sed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sed).

## Installation

And the development version from [GitHub](https://github.com/) with:

``` r

# install.packages("devtools")

devtools::install_github("s-fleck/sifr")

```

## Example

```{r example}

library(sifr)

tf <- tempfile(fileext = ".csv")

write.csv(cars, tf)

x <- sif("26", dir = dirname(tf), markers = FALSE, path_pattern = ".*\\.csv$")

print(x)

as.data.frame(x)

sed_replace("26", "twentysix", dir = dirname(tf), path_pattern = ".*\\.csv$")

sif("26", dir = dirname(tf), markers = FALSE, path_pattern = ".*\\.csv$")

sif("twentysix", dir = dirname(tf), markers = FALSE, path_pattern = ".*\\.csv$")

unlink(tf)

```
