I wanted to search my company's github source website using regular expressions. is that possible in anyway?
Github has its own search syntax with qualifiers you can add, but not full regex. The api uses the same syntax as the in-browser search. Save this answer. Show activity on this post.
GitHub Codesearch can be found at github.com/codesearch and will let you type in anything you're looking for in source code and get highlighted results of any files in our public repositories that match.
state the specific string you're looking for using the "intext:" search operator. add the programming language you're interested in, using the "ext:" operator (i.e. "ext:py", "ext:R", "ext:rb", etc.) search in all public repos in Github using the "site:" operator mrgloom mentioned.
AFAIK you would need to set that up yourself. Github has its own search syntax with qualifiers you can add, but not full regex. The api uses the same syntax as the in-browser search.
