FuzzyMatch

FuzzyMatch is a tool to find files using a pattern (and an excuse to write Elixir and have fun) 😄

I will try to add new features and improve the fuzzy match algorithm slowly. Contributions are very welcome.

Installation

1. Clone fuzzy_match repo:

git clone https://github.com/alvesdan/fuzzy_match.git

2. Build executable

mix escript.build

3. Create symlink to fuzzy_match to use it anywhere

ln -s /usr/local/bin/fuzzy_match fuzzy_match

Usage

fuzzy_match
Usage: fuzzy_match [--limit] PATTERN [FOLDER]

The following options are available:

--limit     Limit the number of results to display
--exclude   Exclude from results using regex
