Code search engine solution for developers
About Hound
Hound is an extremely fast source code search engine. The core is based on this article (and code) from Russ Cox: Regular expression matching with a trigram index. Hound itself is a static React frontend that talks to a Go backend. The backend keeps an up-to-date index for each repository and answers searches through a minimal API. Currently Hound is only tested on MacOS and CentOS, but it should work on any *nix system. Hound on Windows is not supported but we've heard it compiles and runs just fine (although it helps to to exclude your data folder from Windows Search Indexer).

livegrep
Livegrep is a tool, partially inspired by Google Code Search, for interactive regex search of ~gigabyte-scale source repositories. To run livegrep, you need to invoke both the codesearch backend index/search process, and the livegrep web interface. To run the sample web interface over livegrep itself, once you have built both codesearch and livegrep. The codesearch binary is responsible for reading source code, maintaining an index, and handling searches. livegrep is stateless and relies only on the connection to codesearch over a TCP connection. By default, codesearch will build an in-memory index over the repositories specified in its configuration file. You can, however, also instruct it to save the index to a file on disk. This has the dual advantages of allowing indexes that are too large to fit in RAM, and of allowing an index file to be reused.
