xzgrep

Search files possibly compressed with xz, lzma, gzip, bzip2, lzop, or zstd using regular expressions. See also: grep. More information: https://manned.org/xzgrep.

Search for a pattern within a file:

xzgrep "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file}}

Search for an exact string (disables regular expressions):

xzgrep {{[-F|--fixed-strings]}} "{{exact_string}}" {{path/to/file}}

Search for a pattern in all files showing line numbers of matches:

xzgrep {{[-n|--line-number]}} "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file}}

Use extended regular expressions (supports ?, +, {}, () and |), in case-insensitive mode:

xzgrep {{[-E|--extended-regexp]}} {{[-i|--ignore-case]}} "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file}}

Print 3 lines of [C]ontext around, [B]efore, or [A]fter each match:

xzgrep --{{context|before-context|after-context}} {{3}} "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file}}

Print file name and line number for each match with color output:

xzgrep {{[-H|--with-filename]}} {{[-n|--line-number]}} --color=always "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file}}

Search for lines matching a pattern, printing only the matched text:

xzgrep {{[-o|--only-matching]}} "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file}}
