Search text in directory

This project provides a command line text search engine developed in Java 11.

It searches an input text in a directory file.

Unit Tests

mvn test

Build

mvn package

Start

In the project target path, execute:

java -jar search-text-in-directory-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar <pathToDirectoryContainingTextFiles>

Execution example

java -jar search-text-in-directory-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar /Users/marcus/Documents/projects/searchtextindirectory/files
11 files read in directory /Users/marcus/Documents/projects/searchtextindirectory/files
search> Marcus test many words 10000
File4.txt:80.00%
File9.txt:60.00%
File1.txt:40.00%
File10.txt:40.00%
File11.txt:40.00%
File7.txt:40.00%
File2.txt:20.00%
File3:20.00%
File5:20.00%
File6.txt:20.00%
search> 

For exiting the command line application, execute:

search> :quit

Next Steps

Here I left some ideas for improvements in our project:

• Provide the amount of found files as parameters (now it is hardcoded in 10).
• If necessary implement the text search in sub directories.
