Add integration with search tools like Spacemacs

[ghost]

Spacemacs has nice integration with several search tools like ag(the sliver searcher), pt(the platinum searcher), grep, ack, swiper etc. under SPC s keybinding. It would be really nice to have similar functionality in Proton.

@ikhthiandor, you can try atom-fuzzy-grep package.
It was inspired by helm-ag. Just add atom-fuzzy-grep to :additional-packages and desired keybinding to :keybindings (example)

I particularly miss helm-swoop (SPC s s). It would be a nice addition, if possible.

I just wish atom-fuzzy-grep looked better.

The fuzzy finder in Spacemacs is really easy to scan, atom-fuzzy-grep not so much.

@jessejanderson you could always fork it and make it prettier 😄

[geksilla]

@jessejanderson, feel free to create an issue in atom-fuzzy-grep repo. I will try to do my best to get it works better.

@geksilla 👍 and upon re-reading I realize my comment sounded a little harsher than intended ("oops, I'm a jerk"). 😬

It's not that it looks bad, the design is fine - it's just that for me it's more difficult to visually parse what I'm seeing and find what I'm looking for.

Another package to consider for helm-swoop: t9md/atom-narrow

It's still in Alpha, but it looks really promising. It even has vim-mode-plus integration.

Commands:

• narrow:lines: Lines of current buffer.
• narrow:fold: Fold start rows.
• narrow:search: ag (the_silver_searcher) search. need install by your self.
• narrow:search-current-project: narrow:search in the project active editor belongs.
• narrow:focus: Focus narrow editor. use this directly focus from other pane item.
