!!CAUTION!! NO LONGER MAINTAINED

I won't maintain or update this program. Since you now can set let g:unite_source_grep_command = 'ag' and it's comfortably fast.

Unite plugin for Ack

Syntax

:Unite ack:directory:search_word<CR>

if directory is ommited like :Unite ack::search_word current directory is used.

Config

* g:unite_source_ack_command

command which is used. default: "ack-grep --nocolor --nogroup"

* g:unite_source_ack_enable_highlight

control whether ack search keyword is highlighted in unite buffer default: 1

* g:unite_source_ack_search_word_highlight

Highlight applied to search word default: Search

* g:unite_source_ack_ignore_case

toggle case sensitivity for ack command(-i switch), so g:unite_source_ack_command shoud not set -i explicitly. this is dirty , not consistent, but usefull. I'll refactor when time would available.

* g:unite_source_ack_enable_print_cmd

control wheter executed ack command is printed or not. defaut: 1

* let g:unite_source_ack_targetdir_shortcut

dictionary which key is shortcut and value is actulal directory Please check configuration example. default: {}

* let g:unite_source_ack_targetdir_shortcut

dictionary which key is shortcut and value is actulal directory Please check configuration example. default: {}

convert output of unite ack with shortcut

set custom filter following call unite#custom_filters('ack', ['matcher_default', 'sorter_default', 'converter_ack_shortcut'])
