Silver Searcher: how to return filename without path

Question

I am using Silver Searcher to find information in my Calibre library which, by default uses long directory and filenames that are a bit redundant. Example search:

chris@ODYSSEUS:~/db/ebooks/paper-art$ ag --markdown angel

Christophe Boudias (Editor)/Origami Bogota 2014 (Paginas de Origami) (2)/Origami Bogota 2014    (Paginas de Origami) - Christophe Boudias (Editor).md
8:* [16] Angel (???)
9:* [22] Christmas Angel (Uniya Filonova)

Juan Fernando Aguilera (Editor)/Origami Bogota 2013 (Paginas de Origami) (1)/Origami Bogota 2013 (Paginas de Origami) - Juan Fernando Aguilera (Editor).md
29:* [96] Inspired Origami Angel (K. Dianne Stephens)
31:* [100] Angel for Eric Joisel (Kay Kraschewski)

I would like to return just the filename where the whole path is shown in the example. How can I do that?

Answer 1

The l (lowecase L) flag will return the files-with-matches instead of the lines matched.

e.g.

$ ag -l "angel"

you can pipe into sed to remove anything up to and including the final / which leaves the filename.

ag -l angel | sed 's=.*/=='
