#+title: gsearch
gsearch is a command-line tool based on gscite that allows you to quickly search for citations. It provides a convenient way to retrieve references based on a search term and display them in BibTeX format.
* Installation
To use gsearch, you need to have Rust and Cargo installed on your system. If you don't have them installed, you can follow the official Rust installation guide at [[https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install][https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install]].
Once you have Rust and Cargo set up, you can clone the gsearch repository from GitHub:
#+begin_src shell
git clone https://github.com/your_username/gsearch.git
#+end_src
Change to the project directory:
#+begin_src shell
cd gsearch
#+end_src
Build the project using Cargo:
#+begin_src shell
cargo build --release
#+end_src
After a successful build, you can find the gsearch binary in the target/release directory.
* Usage
To search for citations using gsearch, you need to provide a search term as a command-line argument. Here's an example:
#+begin_src shell
$ ./gsearch --search_term "machine learning"
$ @book{zhou2021machine,
title={Machine learning},
author={Zhou, Zhi-Hua},
year={2021},
publisher={Springer Nature}
}
#+end_src
#+end_src
The above command will search for references related to "machine learning" and display the first reference in BibTeX format.
* Command-Line Arguments
gsearch supports the following command-line arguments:
- ~--search_term~ or ~-s~: The search term to be used for retrieving references. It is a required argument.
* Dependencies
gsearch depends on the following libraries:
- [[https://crates.io/crates/gscite][gscite]]: A Rust library for retrieving citations from Google Scholar.
- [[https://crates.io/crates/futures_util][futures_util]]: A collection of utility functions and combinators for working with asynchronous Rust.
- [[https://crates.io/crates/clap][clap]]: A powerful command-line argument parsing library for Rust.
