# contextFind

[![CRAN_Status_Badge](https://www.r-pkg.org/badges/version/contextFind)](https://cran.r-project.org/package=contextFind) [![R CMD Check](https://github.com/s87jackson/contextFind/actions/workflows/R-CMD-check.yaml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/s87jackson/contextFind/actions/workflows/R-CMD-check.yaml) [![](https://cranlogs.r-pkg.org/badges/grand-total/contextFind)](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=contextFind) The goal of `contextFind` is to help developers find relevant parts of their code, especially helpful when code expands beyond a single file, such as with Shiny applications. The package includes an addin to bind `contextFind()` to a hotkey (e.g., Ctrl+Shift+F). This opens a mini shiny application with inputs for the search string, the directory, whether to search subdiretories, and how many lines of context to print before and after the found search string:

Clicking the contextFind button prints the results to the console. For each result (match), `contextFind()` provides a clickable labelled link indicating the file and line number of the result, followed by `contextLines=2` lines before and after the occurrence, with the found string highlighted in yellow. The results are ordered with most recently modified files at the bottom of the list for ease of reading in the console. ## Installation You can install the latest version of `contextFind` from [GitHub](https://github.com/) with: ``` r devtools::install_github("s87jackson/contextFind") ``` or the CRAN stable release with: ``` r install.packages("contextFind") ``` ## Use After installing contextFind, restart RStudio, then set contextFind to a hotkey by selecting Tools \>\> Modify Keyboard Shortcuts:

Now typing Ctrl+Shift+F opens the gadget to perform the search. If text is higlighted when you type the hotkey, it will be passed to the gadget automatically. In the example below, we search for the string ‘selected’ and see the results:
