在Sublime Text 2中搜索包含“Mickey”但不包含“Mouse”的文件

Question

Is it possible to carry out a search in Sublime Text 2 for files that contain 'Mickey'

but do not contain 'Mouse' .

Regular expressions maybe? But what would they be?

Answer 1

Yes, you could use regex to do this, using the negative lookahead expression

Open the Search Ctrl-Shift-F

Make sure you Search with Regular Expressions Alt-R

Mickey(?! Mouse)

Would return all instances of ' Mickey ' that were not followed by ' Mouse '

NOTE : make sure you include the space before Mouse !

Answer 2

Is the fact that you use this particular text editor really important? Personally, I'd just do it using grep. Something like:

grep -l Mickey filename | xargs grep -L Mouse

Explanation:

The -l option means "print the filename(s) that contain a match, not the matching lines".

xargs passes these matching filename(s) into the next grep command.

The -L option means "print the filename(s) that don't contain a match, not the matching lines".

You can then run this command on multiple files, simultaneously - perhaps by adding a -r ("recursive") option to the first grep.

Answer 3

I tried the regular expression offered by Smandoli , but it actually crashed Sublime Text 2 !

Maybe its a problem with one of the Sublime plugins I've added, I simply don't know.

The reason I wanted to use Sublime to do the search is that I'm working on a reasonably large project with well over a thousand files. So I want to search the project for files containing a particular string ('Mickey'). Edit the file if necessary and add the word Mouse. Then I could 'refresh' the search which would now omit the file I just edited because it no longer fits the search criteria. Its a reasonable work flow.

    Note: The strings are not actually Mickey and Mouse, I just used those to illustrate 
the problem. I don't work for Disney :)

Because the regex offered by Smandoli crashed Sublime I also tried the grep command offered by Tom Lord (I'm running on Windows 7 ) but couldn't see a way to only target files with a particular extension ( *.asp )

In the end I wrote a small Powershell script that seems to do the trick:

Get-ChildItem -recurse | Where-Object {$_.FullName -like "*.asp"}
    ForEach-Object { if( ( $(Get-Content $_) |
                            select-string -pattern "Mickey") )
                     { $_.PsPath }} | Get-ChildItem |
    ForEach-Object { if( !( $(Get-Content $_) |
                            select-string -pattern "Mouse") )
                     { $_.PsPath }}
