Searching code with Sourcegraph

Searching code with Sourcegraph

[Development] Posted Aug 17, 2020 20:37 UTC (Mon) by benhoyt

Sourcegraph is a tool for searching and navigating around large code bases. The tool has various search methods, including regular-expression search, and "structural search", which is a relatively new technique that is language-aware. The open-source core of the tool comes with code search, go-to-definition and other "code intelligence" features, which provide ways for developers to make sense of multi-repository code bases. Sourcegraph's code-searching tools can show documentation for functions and methods on mouse hover and allow developers to quickly jump to definitions or to find all references to a particular identifier.
