fuzzy
Go package that provides fuzzy string matching optimized for filenames and code symbols in the style of Sublime Text, VSCode, IntelliJ IDEA et al. This library is external dependency-free. It only depends on the Go standard library.
Demo
Here is a demo of matching various patterns against ~16K files from the Unreal Engine 4 codebase.
You can run the demo yourself like so:
cd _example/
go get github.com/jroimartin/gocui
go run main.go
Usage
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/sahilm/fuzzy"
)
func main() {
pattern := "mnr"
data := []string{"game.cpp", "moduleNameResolver.ts", "my name is_Ramsey"}
matches := fuzzy.Find(pattern, data)
for _, match := range matches {
fmt.Println(match.Str)
// Output:
// my name is_Ramsey
// moduleNameResolver.ts
}
}
Installation
go get github.com/sahilm/fuzzy or use your favorite dependency management tool.
Speed
Here are a few benchmark results on a normal laptop.
BenchmarkFind/with_unreal_4_(~16K_files)-4 50 30668915 ns/op
BenchmarkFind/with_linux_kernel_(~60K_files)-4 20 70854081 ns/op
Matching a pattern against ~60K files from the Linux kernel takes about 70ms.

Types ¶
type Match ¶
type Match struct {
// The matched string.
Str string
// The index of the matched string in the supplied slice.
Index int
// The indexes of matched characters. Useful for highlighting matches.
MatchedIndexes []int
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Match represents a matched string.
func Find ¶
Find looks up pattern in data and returns matches in descending order of match quality. Match quality is determined by a set of bonus and penalty rules.
The following types of matches apply a bonus:
* The first character in the pattern matches the first character in the match string.
* The matched character is camel cased.
* The matched character follows a separator such as an underscore character.
* The matched character is adjacent to a previous match.
Penalties are applied for every character in the search string that wasn't matched and all leading characters upto the first match.
