# rg
> Ripgrep, a recursive line-oriented search tool.
> Aims to be a faster alternative to `grep`.

- Recursively search current directory for a pattern (regular expression):
`rg {{pattern}}`
- Recursively search for a pattern in a file or directory:
`rg {{pattern}} {{path/to/file_or_directory}}`
- Include hidden files and entries listed in `.gitignore`:
`rg {{[-.|--hidden]}} --no-ignore {{pattern}}`
- Only search the files whose names match the glob pattern(s) (e.g. `README.*`):
`rg {{pattern}} {{[-g|--glob]}} {{filename_glob_pattern}}`
- Recursively list filenames in the current directory that match a pattern:
`rg --files | rg {{pattern}}`
- Only list matched files (useful when piping to other commands):
`rg {{[-l|--files-with-matches]}} {{pattern}}`
- Show lines that do not match the pattern:
`rg {{[-v|--invert-match]}} {{pattern}}`
- Search for a literal string pattern:
`rg {{[-F|--fixed-strings]}} -- {{string}}`
