# web-search plugin
This plugin adds aliases for searching with Google, Wiki, Bing, YouTube and other popular services.
Open your `~/.zshrc` file and enable the `web-search` plugin:
```zsh
plugins=( ... web-search)
```
## Usage
You can use the `web-search` plugin in these two forms:
- `web_search <context> <term> [more terms if you want]`
- `<context> <term> [more terms if you want]`
For example, these two are equivalent:
```zsh
$ web_search google oh-my-zsh
$ google oh-my-zsh
```
Available search contexts are:
| Context | URL |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| `bing` | `https://www.bing.com/search?q=` |
| `google` | `https://www.google.com/search?q=` |
| `brs` or `brave` | `https://search.brave.com/search?q=` |
| `yahoo` | `https://search.yahoo.com/search?p=` |
| `ddg` or `duckduckgo` | `https://www.duckduckgo.com/?q=` |
| `sp` or `startpage` | `https://www.startpage.com/do/search?q=` |
| `yandex` | `https://yandex.ru/yandsearch?text=` |
| `github` | `https://github.com/search?q=` |
| `baidu` | `https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=` |
| `ecosia` | `https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=` |
| `goodreads` | `https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=` |
| `qwant` | `https://www.qwant.com/?q=` |
| `givero` | `https://www.givero.com/search?q=` |
| `stackoverflow` | `https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=` |
| `wolframalpha` | `https://wolframalpha.com/input?i=` |
| `archive` | `https://web.archive.org/web/*/` |
| `scholar` | `https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=` |
| `ask` | `https://www.ask.com/web?q=` |
| `youtube` | `https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=` |
| `deepl` | `https://www.deepl.com/translator#auto/auto/` |
| `dockerhub` | `https://hub.docker.com/search?q=` |
| `npmpkg` | `https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=` |
| `packagist` | `https://packagist.org/?query=` |
| `gopkg` | `https://pkg.go.dev/search?m=package&q=` |
| `chatgpt` | `https://chatgpt.com/?q=` |
| `reddit` | `https://www.reddit.com/search/?q=` |
Also there are aliases for bang-searching DuckDuckGo:
| Context | Bang |
| ------- | ---- |
| `wiki` | `!w` |
| `news` | `!n` |
| `map` | `!m` |
| `image` | `!i` |
| `ducky` | `!` |
### Custom search engines
If you want to add other search contexts to the plugin, you can use the `$ZSH_WEB_SEARCH_ENGINES` variable.
Set it before Oh My Zsh is sourced, with the following format:
```zsh
ZSH_WEB_SEARCH_ENGINES=(
<context> <URL>
<context> <URL>
)
```
where `<context>` is the name of the search context, and `<URL>` a URL of the same type as the search contexts
above. For example, to add `reddit`, you'd do:
```zsh
ZSH_WEB_SEARCH_ENGINES=(reddit "https://www.reddit.com/search/?q=")
```
These custom search engines will also be turned to aliases, so you can both do `web_search reddit <query>` or
`reddit <query>`.
