fe-cli

fe-cli is a simple command-line application written in Rust that mimics the basic functionality of the grep command. It allows you to search for a specified pattern within a file and outputs the lines containing that pattern.

Features

• Search for a pattern in a file
• Display lines containing the pattern

Installation

To install fe-cli, you need to have Rust and Cargo installed. If you don't have Rust installed, you can install it from here.

Clone the repository and build the application using Cargo:

git clone https://github.com/vishalg0wda/fe-cli.git
cd fe-cli
cargo build --release

The executable will be available in the target/release directory.

Usage

Run the fe-cli command followed by the pattern you want to search for and the file you want to search in:

./target/release/fe-cli <PATTERN> <FILE>

For example:

./target/release/fe-cli foo example.txt

This command will search for the pattern foo in the file example.txt and print each line that contains the pattern.

Example

Consider the following content in example.txt:

foo bar
baz qux
foo baz
qux foo

Running the command:

./target/release/fe-cli foo example.txt

Will output:

foo bar
foo baz
qux foo
