livegrep Description

Livegrep, a tool partially inspired by Google Code Search for interactive regex searches of gigabyte scale source repositories, is an inspiration. Livegrep can be run by calling both the codesearch search backend index/search process and the livegrep interface. Once you have created both codesearch and livegrep, you can run the sample web interface using livegrep. The codesearch binary is responsible to read source code, maintain an index, and handle searches. Livegrep is not stateless and relies on a TCP connection to connect to codesearch. Codesearch will automatically create an in-memory search index over the repositories it has specified in its configuration file. However, you can also instruct codesearch to save the index to an on-disk file. This has the double advantage of allowing large indexes to be saved to disk and allowing them to be reused.

Hound Reviews
Hound
Hound is a very fast source code search engine. This article (and the code) is the core of Hound. Regular expression matching with a trigram Index. Hound is a static React frontend which talks to a Go backend. The backend maintains an up-to date index for each repository, and answers queries through a minimal API. Hound is currently only available for MacOS and CentOS. However, it should work on any *nix platform. Although Hound is not supported on Windows, we have heard it compile and run just fine (although it does help to exclude your data folders from the Windows Search Indexer).
