Helper class for making your own search tools along with a built-in transient Ripgrep search window.
- uses the fantastic
ripgrepto search your Unity code, assets, prefabs and scene files - handy search window with multithreaded dispatch and parsing of ripgrep search results
- advanced Unity users (those who know scene/asset/prefab file internals and basic regex) can find pretty much anything fast
- find references to anything by just searching the GUID
- save commonly used searches
- optionally add any paths you want searched for code/files that live outside of the Unity world
- install ripgrep (make sure it's on your path for Windows and available from
/usr/local/bin/rgfor macOS) - Unity LTS release (not tested on anything that isn't an LTS because I'm not insane enough to use one)
cmd/ctrl + Gopens the search window- type at least 3 letters and press enter
- escape stops the search if it is active or closes the search window if it is complete
- results will ping on click and open to the search result line in TextMate on double-click (if on macOS with TextMate installed)
