Greppable

This is an IRC bot for grepping through the module ecosystem. It can be addressed by its full name ('greppable6') or its short name ('grep').

Functionally it does git grep -I --perl-regexp --line-number -e … inside perl6-all-modules repository. You can do it yourself just as easily, with the only exception that you won't get links to the sources.

You can find some extra examples in tests: greppable.t

⚠ please note that it takes a perl5 regex, not something else.
