very simple tool to perform web searches from the terminal written in node. Inspired by zquestz/s (and other cli apps) in functionality, but with a different implementation.

a small experimenting learning js and node (and just having fun).

currently works on osx and linux, no window support yet.

1. node
2. npm

npm install -g search-cli

alrnatively, you can download this repository and install from source

git clone https://github.com/latrokles/search-cli.git
cd search-cli
npm install

  Usage: search [options] <query>

  Options:

    -h, --help                       output usage information
    -V, --version                    output the version number
    -s, --service <service>          to perform search on (e.g. google, npm)
    -c, --configure                  configure a new service
    -l, --list                       list configured services

search-cli services are stored in a json configuration file placed in the user's home directory during installation (at ~/.search-cli.json).

search-cli comes with some services already configured by default, but new services can be configured by:

1. running search-cli with the --configure flag (this runs in interactive mode).
2. manually editing the configuration file to add a new service.
