# web-search plugin
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This plugin adds aliases for searching with Google, Wiki, Bing, YouTube and other popular services.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Open your `~/.zshrc` file and enable the `web-search` plugin:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```zsh
|
||
|
|
plugins=( ... web-search)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can use the `web-search` plugin in these two forms:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `web_search <context> <term> [more terms if you want]`
|
||
|
|
* `<context> <term> [more terms if you want]`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, these two are equivalent:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```zsh
|
||
|
|
$ web_search google oh-my-zsh
|
||
|
|
$ google oh-my-zsh
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Available search contexts are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Context | URL |
|
||
|
|
|-----------------------|------------------------------------------|
|
||
|
|
| `bing` | `https://www.bing.com/search?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `google` | `https://www.google.com/search?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `yahoo` | `https://search.yahoo.com/search?p=` |
|
||
|
|
| `ddg` or `duckduckgo` | `https://www.duckduckgo.com/?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `sp` or `startpage` | `https://www.startpage.com/do/search?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `yandex` | `https://yandex.ru/yandsearch?text=` |
|
||
|
|
| `github` | `https://github.com/search?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `baidu` | `https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=` |
|
||
|
|
| `ecosia` | `https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `goodreads` | `https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `qwant` | `https://www.qwant.com/?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `givero` | `https://www.givero.com/search?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `stackoverflow` | `https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=` |
|
||
|
|
| `wolframalpha` | `https://wolframalpha.com/input?i=` |
|
||
|
|
| `archive` | `https://web.archive.org/web/*/` |
|
||
|
|
| `scholar` | `https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=` |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also there are aliases for bang-searching DuckDuckGo:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Context | Bang |
|
||
|
|
|-----------|-------|
|
||
|
|
| `wiki` | `!w` |
|
||
|
|
| `news` | `!n` |
|
||
|
|
| `youtube` | `!yt` |
|
||
|
|
| `map` | `!m` |
|
||
|
|
| `image` | `!i` |
|
||
|
|
| `ducky` | `!` |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Custom search engines
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you want to add other search contexts to the plugin, you can use the
|
||
|
|
`$ZSH_WEB_SEARCH_ENGINES` variable. Set it before Oh My Zsh is sourced,
|
||
|
|
with the following format:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```zsh
|
||
|
|
ZSH_WEB_SEARCH_ENGINES=(
|
||
|
|
<context> <URL>
|
||
|
|
<context> <URL>
|
||
|
|
)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
where `<context>` is the name of the search context, and `<URL>` a URL of
|
||
|
|
the same type as the search contexts above. For example, to add `reddit`,
|
||
|
|
you'd do:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```zsh
|
||
|
|
ZSH_WEB_SEARCH_ENGINES=(reddit "https://www.reddit.com/search/?q=")
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
These custom search engines will also be turned to aliases, so you can
|
||
|
|
both do `web_search reddit <query>` or `reddit <query>`.
