.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B fd
|
|
is a simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to
|
|
.BR find (1).
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-H, \-\-hidden
|
|
Include hidden files and directories in the search results
|
|
(default: hidden files and directories are skipped).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-I, \-\-no\-ignore
|
|
Show search results from files and directories that would otherwise be ignored by
|
|
.IR .gitignore ,
|
|
.IR .ignore ,
|
|
.IR .fdignore ,
|
|
or the global ignore file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-u, \-\-unrestricted
|
|
Alias for '--no-ignore'. Can be repeated; '-uu' is an alias for '--no-ignore --hidden'.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-no\-ignore\-vcs
|
|
Show search results from files and directories that would otherwise be ignored by
|
|
.I .gitignore
|
|
files.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-s, \-\-case\-sensitive
|
|
Perform a case-sensitive search. By default, fd uses case-insensitive searches, unless the
|
|
pattern contains an uppercase character (smart case).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-i, \-\-ignore\-case
|
|
Perform a case-insensitive search. By default, fd uses case-insensitive searches, unless the
|
|
pattern contains an uppercase character (smart case).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-g, \-\-glob
|
|
Perform a glob-based search instead of a regular expression search.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-regex
|
|
Perform a regular-expression based search (default). This can be used to override --glob.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-F, \-\-fixed\-strings
|
|
Treat the pattern as a literal string instead of a regular expression. Note that this also
|
|
performs substring comparison. If you want to match on an exact filename, consider using '\-\-glob'.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-a, \-\-absolute\-path
|
|
Shows the full path starting from the root as opposed to relative paths.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-l, \-\-list\-details
|
|
Use a detailed listing format like 'ls -l'. This is basically an alias
|
|
for '--exec-batch ls -l' with some additional 'ls' options. This can be used
|
|
to see more metadata, to show symlink targets and to achieve a deterministic
|
|
sort order.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-L, \-\-follow
|
|
By default, fd does not descend into symlinked directories. Using this flag, symbolic links are
|
|
also traversed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-p, \-\-full\-path
|
|
By default, the search pattern is only matched against the filename (or directory name). Using
|
|
this flag, the
|
|
.I pattern
|
|
is matched against the full path.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-0, \-\-print0
|
|
Separate search results by the null character (instead of newlines). Useful for piping results to
|
|
.IR xargs .
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-max\-results count
|
|
Limit the number of search results to 'count' and quit immediately.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-1
|
|
Limit the search to a single result and quit immediately. This is an alias for '--max-results=1'.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-show-errors
|
|
Enable the display of filesystem errors for situations such as insufficient
|
|
permissions or dead symlinks.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-one\-file\-system, \-\-mount, \-\-xdev
|
|
By default, fd will traverse the file system tree as far as other options dictate. With this flag, fd ensures that it does not descend into a different file system than the one it started in. Comparable to the -mount or -xdev filters of find(1).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-h, \-\-help
|
|
Print help information.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-V, \-\-version
|
|
Print version information.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-d, \-\-max\-depth " d
|
|
Limit directory traversal to at most
|
|
.I d
|
|
levels of depth. By default, there is no limit on the search depth.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-\-min\-depth " d
|
|
Only show search results starting at the given depth. See also: '--max-depth' and '--exact-depth'.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-\-exact\-depth " d
|
|
Only show search results at the exact given depth. This is an alias for '--min-depth <depth> --max-depth <depth>'.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-prune
|
|
Do not traverse into matching directories.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-t, \-\-type " filetype
|
|
Filter search by type:
|
|
.RS
|
|

|
|
regular files
|
|
.IP "d, directory"
|
|
directories
|
|

|
|
as a normal search pattern.

|
|
\-\-exclude node_modules

|
|
be shown with respect to the given base path. Note that relative paths which are passed to fd via the

|
this directory.
