User-friendly, tiny source code searcher written in pure Python.

bor can be installed by running pip install bor. It requires Python 3.8.0+ to run.

bor currently supports class and def keywords. Other Python keywords will be added in the future releases.

bor {keyword} {pattern}

By default, bor runs in your current directory. You can run bor with the specific source file or directory:

bor {keyword} {pattern} {source_file_or_directory}

By default, if bor encounters an error(syntax, indentation error etc.) while analyzing files, it will stop working. If you want to the ignore errors, you can use --ignore-error or -i argument. For example;

bor class Cat --ignore-error

Cat is equivalent in the regular expression as ^Cat$

bor class Cat

Output:

Cat at examples/test.py:18

.Cat is equivalent in the regular expression as Cat$

bor class .Cat

Output:

Cat at examples/test.py:18
BlueCat at examples/test.py:26

get. is equivalent in the regular expression as ^get

bor def get. examples/test.py

Output:

get_value at examples/test.py:5
get_blue_value at examples/test.py:11
get_purple_value at examples/test.py:14
get_meow at examples/test.py:22

.cat. is equivalent in the regular expression as cat+

bor def .cat.

Output:

catch_me_if_you_can at examples/test.py:8
am_i_blue_cat at examples/test.py:30
where_is_the_cat at examples/test.py:38
