NAME
|
||
fzf - a command-line fuzzy finder
|
||
|
||
SYNOPSIS
|
||
fzf [options]
|
||
|
||
DESCRIPTION
|
||
fzf is a general-purpose command-line fuzzy finder.
|
||
|
||
OPTIONS
|
||
Search mode
|
||
-x, --extended
|
||
Extended-search mode. Since 0.10.9, this is enabled by default. You can disable it with +x or --no-extended.
|
||
|
||
-e, --exact
|
||
Enable exact-match
|
||
|
||
-i Case-insensitive match (default: smart-case match)
|
||
|
||
+i Case-sensitive match
|
||
|
||
--literal
|
||
Do not normalize latin script letters for matching.
|
||
|
||
--scheme=SCHEME
|
||
Choose scoring scheme tailored for different types of input.
|
||
|
||
default Generic scoring scheme designed to work well with any type of input
|
||
path Scoring scheme for paths (additional bonus point only after path separator)
|
||
history Scoring scheme for command history (no additional bonus points).
|
||
Sets --tiebreak=index as well.
|
||
|
||
--algo=TYPE
|
||
Fuzzy matching algorithm (default: v2)
|
||
|
||
v2 Optimal scoring algorithm (quality)
|
||
v1 Faster but not guaranteed to find the optimal result (performance)
|
||
|
||
-n, --nth=N[,..]
|
||
Comma-separated list of field index expressions for limiting search scope. See FIELD INDEX EXPRESSION for the details.
|
||
|
||
--with-nth=N[,..]
|
||
Transform the presentation of each line using field index expressions
|
||
|
||
-d, --delimiter=STR
|
||
Field delimiter regex for --nth and --with-nth (default: AWK-style)
|
||
|
||
--disabled
|
||
Do not perform search. With this option, fzf becomes a simple selector interface rather than a "fuzzy finder". You can later enable the search using enable-search or toggle-
|
||
search action.
|
||
|
||
Search result
|
||
+s, --no-sort
|
||
Do not sort the result
|
||
|
||
--tac Reverse the order of the input
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
history | fzf --tac --no-sort
|
||
|
||
--tiebreak=CRI[,..]
|
||
Comma-separated list of sort criteria to apply when the scores are tied.
|
||
|
||
length Prefers line with shorter length
|
||
chunk Prefers line with shorter matched chunk (delimited by whitespaces)
|
||
begin Prefers line with matched substring closer to the beginning
|
||
end Prefers line with matched substring closer to the end
|
||
index Prefers line that appeared earlier in the input stream
|
||
|
||
- Each criterion should appear only once in the list
|
||
- index is only allowed at the end of the list
|
||
- index is implicitly appended to the list when not specified
|
||
- Default is length (or equivalently length,index)
|
||
- If end is found in the list, fzf will scan each line backwards
|
||
|
||
Interface

--color='pointer:#E12672,marker:#E17899,prompt:#98BEDE,hl+:#98BC99'
|
||
|
||
--no-bold
|
||
Do not use bold text
|
||
|
||
--black
|
||
Use black background
|
||
|
||
History
|
||
--history=HISTORY_FILE
|
||
Load search history from the specified file and update the file on completion. When enabled, CTRL-N and CTRL-P are automatically remapped to next-history and previous-history.
|
||
|
||
--history-size=N
|
||
Maximum number of entries in the history file (default: 1000). The file is automatically truncated when the number of the lines exceeds the value.
|
||
|
||
Preview
|
||
--preview=COMMAND
|
||
Execute the given command for the current line and display the result on the preview window. {} in the command is the placeholder that is replaced to the single-quoted string of
|
||
the current line. To transform the replacement string, specify field index expressions between the braces (See FIELD INDEX EXPRESSION for the details).
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --preview='head -$LINES {}'
|
||
ls -l | fzf --preview="echo user={3} when={-4..-2}; cat {-1}" --header-lines=1
|
||
|
||
fzf exports $FZF_PREVIEW_LINES and $FZF_PREVIEW_COLUMNS so that they represent the exact size of the preview window. (It also overrides $LINES and $COLUMNS with the same values
|
||
but they can be reset by the default shell, so prefer to refer to the ones with FZF_PREVIEW_ prefix.)
|
||
|
||
A placeholder expression starting with + flag will be replaced to the space-separated list of the selected lines (or the current line if no selection was made) individually
|
||
quoted.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --multi --preview='head -10 {+}'
|
||
git log --oneline | fzf --multi --preview 'git show {+1}'
|
||
|
||
When using a field index expression, leading and trailing whitespace is stripped from the replacement string. To preserve the whitespace, use the s flag.
|
||
|
||
Also, {q} is replaced to the current query string, and {n} is replaced to zero-based ordinal index of the line. Use {+n} if you want all index numbers when multiple lines are
|
||
selected.
|
||
|
||
A placeholder expression with f flag is replaced to the path of a temporary file that holds the evaluated list. This is useful when you multi-select a large number of items and
|
||
the length of the evaluated string may exceed ARG_MAX.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
# Press CTRL-A to select 100K items and see the sum of all the numbers.
|
||
# This won't work properly without 'f' flag due to ARG_MAX limit.
|
||
seq 100000 | fzf --multi --bind ctrl-a:select-all \
|
||
--preview "awk '{sum+=\$1} END {print sum}' {+f}"
|
||
|
||
Note that you can escape a placeholder pattern by prepending a backslash.
|
||
|
||
Preview window will be updated even when there is no match for the current query if any of the placeholder expressions evaluates to a non-empty string.
|
||
|
||
Since 0.24.0, fzf can render partial preview content before the preview command completes. ANSI escape sequence for clearing the display (CSI 2 J) is supported, so you can use
|
||
it to implement preview window that is constantly updating.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --preview 'for i in $(seq 100000); do
|
||
(( i % 200 == 0 )) && printf "\033[2J"
|
||
echo "$i"
|
||
sleep 0.01
|
||
done'
|
||
|
||
--preview-window=[POSITION][,SIZE[%]][,border-BORDER_OPT][,[no]wrap][,[no]follow][,[no]cycle][,[no]hidden][,+SCROLL[OFFSETS][/DENOM]][,~HEADER_LINES][,default][,<SIZE_THRESHOLD(ALTER‐
|
||
NATIVE_LAYOUT)]
|
||
|
||
POSITION: (default: right)
|
||
up
|
||
down
|
||
left
|
||
right
|
||
|
||
Determines the layout of the preview window.
|
||
|
||
* If the argument contains :hidden, the preview window will be hidden by default until toggle-preview action is triggered.
|
||
|
||
* If size is given as 0, preview window will not be visible, but fzf will still execute the command in the background.
|
||
|
||
* Long lines are truncated by default. Line wrap can be enabled with wrap flag.
|
||
|
||
* Preview window will automatically scroll to the bottom when follow flag is set, similarly to how tail -f works.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --preview-window follow --preview 'for i in $(seq 100000); do
|
||
echo "$i"
|
||
sleep 0.01
|
||
(( i % 300 == 0 )) && printf "\033[2J"
|
||
done'
|
||
|
||
* Cyclic scrolling is enabled with cycle flag.
|
||
|
||
* To change the style of the border of the preview window, specify one of the options for --border with border- prefix. e.g. border-rounded (border with rounded edges, de‐
|
||
fault), border-sharp (border with sharp edges), border-left, border-none, etc.
|
||
|
||
* [:+SCROLL[OFFSETS][/DENOM]] determines the initial scroll offset of the preview window.
|
||
|
||
- SCROLL can be either a numeric integer or a single-field index expression that refers to a numeric integer.
|
||
|
||
- The optional OFFSETS part is for adjusting the base offset. It should be given as a series of signed integers (-INTEGER or +INTEGER).
|
||
|
||
- The final /DENOM part is for specifying a fraction of the preview window height.
|
||
|
||
* ~HEADER_LINES keeps the top N lines as the fixed header so that they are always visible.
|
||
|
||
* default resets all options previously set to the default.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
# Non-default scroll window positions and sizes
|
||
fzf --preview="head {}" --preview-window=up,30%
|
||
fzf --preview="file {}" --preview-window=down,1
|
||
|
||
# Initial scroll offset is set to the line number of each line of
|
||
# git grep output *minus* 5 lines (-5)
|
||
git grep --line-number '' |
|
||
fzf --delimiter : --preview 'nl {1}' --preview-window '+{2}-5'
|
||
|
||
# Preview with bat, matching line in the middle of the window below
|
||
# the fixed header of the top 3 lines
|
||
#
|
||
# ~3 Top 3 lines as the fixed header
|
||
# +{2} Base scroll offset extracted from the second field
|
||
# +3 Extra offset to compensate for the 3-line header
|
||
# /2 Put in the middle of the preview area
|
||
#
|
||
git grep --line-number '' |
|
||
fzf --delimiter : \
|
||
--preview 'bat --style=full --color=always --highlight-line {2} {1}' \
|
||
--preview-window '~3,+{2}+3/2'
|
||
|
||
# Display top 3 lines as the fixed header
|
||
fzf --preview 'bat --style=full --color=always {}' --preview-window '~3'
|
||
|
||
* You can specify an alternative set of options that are used only when the size
|
||
of the preview window is below a certain threshold. Note that only one
|
||
alternative layout is allowed.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window 'right,border-left,<30(up,30%,border-bottom)'
|
||
|
||
Scripting
|
||
-q, --query=STR
|
||
Start the finder with the given query
|
||
|
||
-1, --select-1
|
||
If there is only one match for the initial query (--query), do not start interactive finder and automatically select the only match
|
||
|
||
-0, --exit-0
|
||
If there is no match for the initial query (--query), do not start interactive finder and exit immediately
|
||
|
||
-f, --filter=STR
|
||
Filter mode. Do not start interactive finder. When used with --no-sort, fzf becomes a fuzzy-version of grep.
|
||
|
||
--print-query
|
||
Print query as the first line
|
||
|
||
--expect=KEY[,..]
|
||
Comma-separated list of keys that can be used to complete fzf in addition to the default enter key. When this option is set, fzf will print the name of the key pressed as the
|
||
first line of its output (or as the second line if --print-query is also used). The line will be empty if fzf is completed with the default enter key. If --expect option is
|
||
specified multiple times, fzf will expect the union of the keys. --no-expect will clear the list.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --expect=ctrl-v,ctrl-t,alt-s --expect=f1,f2,~,@
|
||
|
||
--read0
|
||
Read input delimited by ASCII NUL characters instead of newline characters
|
||
|
||
--print0
|
||
Print output delimited by ASCII NUL characters instead of newline characters
|
||
|
||
--no-clear
|
||
Do not clear finder interface on exit. If fzf was started in full screen mode, it will not switch back to the original screen, so you'll have to manually run tput rmcup to re‐
|
||
turn. This option can be used to avoid flickering of the screen when your application needs to start fzf multiple times in order.
|
||
|
||
--sync Synchronous search for multi-staged filtering. If specified, fzf will launch ncurses finder only after the input stream is complete.
|
||
|
||
e.g. fzf --multi | fzf --sync
|
||
|
||
--version
|
||
Display version information and exit
|
||
|
||
Note that most options have the opposite versions with --no- prefix.
|
||
|
||
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
||
FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND
|
||
Default command to use when input is tty. On *nix systems, fzf runs the command with $SHELL -c if SHELL is set, otherwise with sh -c, so in this case make sure that the command
|
||
is POSIX-compliant.
|
||
|
||
FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS
|
||
Default options. e.g. export FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="--extended --cycle"
|
||
|
||
EXIT STATUS
|
||
0 Normal exit
|
||
1 No match
|
||
2 Error
|
||
130 Interrupted with CTRL-C or ESC
|
||
|
||
FIELD INDEX EXPRESSION
|
||
A field index expression can be a non-zero integer or a range expression ([BEGIN]..[END]). --nth and --with-nth take a comma-separated list of field index expressions.
|
||
|
||
Examples
|
||
1 The 1st field
|
||
2 The 2nd field
|
||
-1 The last field
|
||
-2 The 2nd to last field
|
||
3..5 From the 3rd field to the 5th field
|
||
2.. From the 2nd field to the last field
|
||
..-3 From the 1st field to the 3rd to the last field
|
||
.. All the fields
|
||
|
||
EXTENDED SEARCH MODE
|
||
Unless specified otherwise, fzf will start in "extended-search mode". In this mode, you can specify multiple patterns delimited by spaces, such as: 'wild ^music .mp3$ sbtrkt !rmx
|
||
|
||
You can prepend a backslash to a space (\ ) to match a literal space character.
|
||
|
||
Exact-match (quoted)
|
||
A term that is prefixed by a single-quote character (') is interpreted as an "exact-match" (or "non-fuzzy") term. fzf will search for the exact occurrences of the string.
|
||
|
||
Anchored-match
|
||
A term can be prefixed by ^, or suffixed by $ to become an anchored-match term. Then fzf will search for the lines that start with or end with the given string. An anchored-match term
|
||
is also an exact-match term.
|
||
|
||
Negation
|
||
If a term is prefixed by !, fzf will exclude the lines that satisfy the term from the result. In this case, fzf performs exact match by default.
|
||
|
||
Exact-match by default
|
||
If you don't prefer fuzzy matching and do not wish to "quote" (prefixing with ') every word, start fzf with -e or --exact option. Note that when --exact is set, '-prefix "unquotes" the
|
||
term.
|
||
|
||
OR operator
|
||
A single bar character term acts as an OR operator. For example, the following query matches entries that start with core and end with either go, rb, or py.
|
||
|
||
e.g. ^core go$ | rb$ | py$
|
||
|
||
KEY/EVENT BINDINGS
|
||
--bind option allows you to bind a key or an event to one or more actions. You can use it to customize key bindings or implement dynamic behaviors.
|
||
|
||
--bind takes a comma-separated list of binding expressions. Each binding expression is KEY:ACTION or EVENT:ACTION.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --bind=ctrl-j:accept,ctrl-k:kill-line
|
||

|
||
|
||
ACTION COMPOSITION
|
||
Multiple actions can be chained using + separator.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --multi --bind 'ctrl-a:select-all+accept'
|
||
fzf --multi --bind 'ctrl-a:select-all' --bind 'ctrl-a:+accept'
|
||
|
||
ACTION ARGUMENT
|
||
An action denoted with (...) suffix takes an argument.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
fzf --bind 'ctrl-a:change-prompt(NewPrompt> )'
|
||
fzf --bind 'ctrl-v:preview(cat {})' --preview-window hidden
|
||
|
||
If the argument contains parentheses, fzf may fail to parse the expression. In that case, you can use any of the following alternative notations to avoid parse errors.
|
||
|
||
action-name[...]
|
||
action-name~...~
|
||
action-name!...!
|
||
action-name@...@
|
||
action-name#...#
|
||
action-name$...$
|
||
action-name%...%
|
||
action-name^...^
|
||
action-name&...&
|
||
action-name*...*
|
||
action-name;...;
|
||
action-name/.../
|
||
action-name|...|
|
||
action-name:...
|
||
The last one is the special form that frees you from parse errors as it does not expect the closing character. The catch is that it should be the last one in the comma-separated
|
||
list of key-action pairs.
|
||
|
||
COMMAND EXECUTION
|
||
With execute(...) action, you can execute arbitrary commands without leaving fzf. For example, you can turn fzf into a simple file browser by binding enter key to less command like
|
||
follows.
|
||
|
||
fzf --bind "enter:execute(less {})"
|
||
|
||
You can use the same placeholder expressions as in --preview.
|
||
|
||
fzf switches to the alternate screen when executing a command. However, if the command is expected to complete quickly, and you are not interested in its output, you might want to use
|
||
execute-silent instead, which silently executes the command without the switching. Note that fzf will not be responsive until the command is complete. For asynchronous execution, start
|
||
your command as a background process (i.e. appending &).
|
||
|
||
On *nix systems, fzf runs the command with $SHELL -c if SHELL is set, otherwise with sh -c, so in this case make sure that the command is POSIX-compliant.
|
||
|
||
RELOAD INPUT
|
||
reload(...) action is used to dynamically update the input list without restarting fzf. It takes the same command template with placeholder expressions as execute(...).
|
||
|
||
See https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/issues/1750 for more info.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
# Update the list of processes by pressing CTRL-R
|
||
ps -ef | fzf --bind 'ctrl-r:reload(ps -ef)' --header 'Press CTRL-R to reload' \
|
||
--header-lines=1 --layout=reverse
|
||
|
||
# Integration with ripgrep
|
||
RG_PREFIX="rg --column --line-number --no-heading --color=always --smart-case "
|
||
INITIAL_QUERY="foobar"
|
||
FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND="$RG_PREFIX '$INITIAL_QUERY'" \
|
||
fzf --bind "change:reload:$RG_PREFIX {q} || true" \
|
||
--ansi --disabled --query "$INITIAL_QUERY"
|
||
|
||
PREVIEW BINDING
|
||
With preview(...) action, you can specify multiple different preview commands in addition to the default preview command given by --preview option.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
# Default preview command with an extra preview binding
|
||
fzf --preview 'file {}' --bind '?:preview:cat {}'
|
||
|
||
# A preview binding with no default preview command
|
||
# (Preview window is initially empty)
|
||
fzf --bind '?:preview:cat {}'
|
||
|
||
# Preview window hidden by default, it appears when you first hit '?'
|
||
fzf --bind '?:preview:cat {}' --preview-window hidden
|
||
|
||
CHANGE PREVIEW WINDOW ATTRIBUTES
|
||
change-preview-window action can be used to change the properties of the preview window. Unlike the --preview-window option, you can specify multiple sets of options separated by '|'
|
||
characters.
|
||
|
||
e.g.
|
||
# Rotate through the options using CTRL-/
|
||
fzf --preview 'cat {}' --bind 'ctrl-/:change-preview-window(right,70%|down,40%,border-horizontal|hidden|right)'
|
||
|
||
# The default properties given by `--preview-window` are inherited, so an empty string in the list is interpreted as the default
|
||
fzf --preview 'cat {}' --preview-window 'right,40%,border-left' --bind 'ctrl-/:change-preview-window(70%|down,border-top|hidden|)'
|
||
|
||
# This is equivalent to toggle-preview action
|
||
fzf --preview 'cat {}' --bind 'ctrl-/:change-preview-window(hidden|)'
