ccat's Issues

Proper [Python] syntax

Really like ccat so far. Enjoy the speed bump over pygmentize. However, I do want to point out that ccat's syntax recognition capabilities are sort of lacking. Is it possible to customize colors on a more granular semantic level, i.e. create different color flags for variables, functions? Most lines in a Python file fall under Plaintext. Whole comment lines ignore the Comment flag and output as if it were a normal line.

go module support

This tool is installable via brew. In order to make maintenance of brew easier and also support go 1.17 could the maintainers please look at adding go module support.

Homebrew/homebrew-core#71289

What would happen if I aliased cat to ccat?

I love ccat, and I'm wondering what the consequences of setting an alias in my shell for cat -> ccat would be? Would the performance hit be significant? Might I run into encoding issues? Is this just a terrible idea?

Check this

alias ccat="pygmentize -O style=monokai -f console256 -g"

Feat req: pretty printing?

Could such a feature be considered for adding? Something like

ccat test.json --pretty

To make minified code more readable? Or is this out of scope for what you intend with ccat?

Feature Request: color output for `.patch` and/or `.diff` files

let's pretend the following file existed... it would be cool if ccat made minus (-) lines in red and plus (+) lines in green.

diff --git i/roles/splunk-shcluster/tasks/main.yml w/roles/splunk-shcluster/tasks/main.yml

Pager

What is the recommended way to page through the output of ccat? ccat README.md | less -R for example does not work (no colors) even though it works for cat my.patch | colordiff | less -R.

Or would it make more sense to integrate pager into ccat (ccat -p README.md)?

Could it be used with git diff?

I ran that:

git config --global core.pager ccat

And I've got the highlight in diff, but with some weird symbols:

I guess it the git diff colors, since it looks nice if I turn it off:

I wonder could I combine gitdiff colors (basically, red/green for -/+ lines) and ccat ones?

Disable colouring while piping

I think its sort of standard to avoid colour while the output is passed to a pipe. It helps in further processing of the data. I understand it may be handy while piping to less or so. But most of the time, its better to be avoided.

Perhaps provide a flag and disable in by default.

ccat command is already taken by ccrypt package on Ubuntu/Debian

apt-get

would be cool if we ubuntu users can apt-get install it too

unable to access ... : gnutls_handshake() failed: Public key signature verification has failed

Hi,
I want to install ccat on my new Debian Jessie 8.10 VM (using Vagrant), but there's an error :

$ go get -u github.com/jingweno/ccat
# cd .; git clone https://github.com/jingweno/ccat /home/vagrant/go/src/github.com/jingweno/ccat
Clonage dans '/home/vagrant/go/src/github.com/jingweno/ccat'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/jingweno/ccat/': gnutls_handshake() failed: Public key signature verification has failed.
package github.com/jingweno/ccat: exit status 128

Go version :

$ go version
go version go1.11.5 linux/amd64

So, have you an idea to help me please ? :)

Add environment configuration option to set terminal background color

I use dark terminal. It is a pain to write every time --bg "dark".
It should be simple to read some environment variable (or any other type of global configuration file, e.g. ~/.ccat file) and define it globally. Then command line argument can just overwrite the global configuration, if present.

P.S. I want to add that light scheme looks ok on dark terminal, but i use dark terminal with transparency and only then it is unreadable. As it is unreadable for small portion of users, i do not think it is critical.

go panics on some files

Seems to happen the most on long "jsonl" files. That is a file with JSON that has a new JSON document on each line.

Here's an example stack trace:

Colorize other commands

Is there any chance of adding colorizing to the other commands, like tail/head/more/less, etc?

As an option, you can forward all arguments to the command(let's take tail as an example).

Assuming this command was passed to the console - ctail -20 ~/Folder1/folder2/.file
It can be transformed into something like tail -20 ~/Folder1/folder2/.file | ccat

As for now, we can manually add support for this. Just add

ctail() {
  tail "$@" | ccat
}

to your bash config file(and same for all other functions, if needed). But it would be great to have those functions as built-in, without the need of transforming your bash config file.

Allow -t switch

Hi,

I recently got the following error from a script that I run regularly

Error: unknown shorthand flag: 't' in -t
Run 'ccat help' for usage.

From man cat

-t      Display non-printing characters (see the -v option), and display tab characters as `^I'.

Could ccat at least ignore that switch to be compatible with the cat command on macOS?

Kind regards,
David

export default theme to use with vim

I find default theme of ccat is pretty nice when display color of .go files.

Is there a way to import it to use as a colorscheme for golang in vim? maybe a go.vim?

Rainbow Colors

Rainbow colors are nice to have like: lolcat

Lolcat's deficit is handling utf8, which Golang handles gracefully. This would be great to have in ccat so I can move all my monitoring/uptime scripts from lolcat to ccat.

restrict to specific extensions?

would it be possible to restrict ccat to a particular set of extensions (ie .js, .json, etc), otherwise defaulting to regular cat?

Pipe output to some other command(s) before colorizing

Is it possible to pipe the file output's to some other command before colorizing?

E.g. ccat file --pipe-to="grep 'pattern'"

EDIT: I found out know it's possible to do it like this:

cmd file | [commands] | ccat

Reading from stdin instead, so I guess it solves it for me.

suport php future?

i am a phper ,this tool is such cool,but i found that it does not support php，so sad :(

Dockerfile highlighting breaks on wildcards

FROM base:1.0.0

RUN rm -rf /path/to/wildcard/*

RUN stuff && things

FROM base:1.0.0

RUN rm -rf /path/to/something

RUN stuff && things

In the first case everything from /* onwards is not highlighted.

thank u.

Missing from AUR

Hey!

I think I installed ccat from the AUR previously, however both ccat and ccat-git now seem to be missing.

Cheers!

Wrong behavior when ccat directory

When I ccat directory I expect some error message but ccat shows nothing

Also exit status is 0

Error: Calling Formula.sha1 is disabled!

I started getting this error today. I think you need to release a new version.

Use Formula.sha256 instead.

Line number support ?

I saw the original cat has the switch -n that would prefix line numbers , might be useful ?

theme support?

how to solve messy code ?

Actual:

Except:

because my computer is chinese, i have set encoding to utf-8, still can't solve.

Infinite stream

Is it possible to use ccat to colorize infinite stream?

My use case is to use it with tail -f like this:

tail -f /some/log/file.log | ccat

Currently it is not displaying anything.

Mismatched SHA

I was going through the installation instructions with brew but get a mismatch SHA error on install:

I removed the tar file as it suggests but no dice. Any ideas on what might be happening?

Thanks!

Error while using brew.

Use Formula.sha256 instead.

cless?

cat -> ccat
less -> cless ?
it would be really nice.

Am I doing something wrong here?

Log line includes timestamp

$ ccat foo
2017/05/12 09:51:26 open foo: no such file or directory

I think it's go's default log package causing this. The timestamp here doesn't make much sense.

conflicting formulas

seems formula have been added upstream: Homebrew/legacy-homebrew@f8e10bb

one solution is to remove this tap:

brew untap jingweno/ccat

Request: Include PHP Syntax

It would be awesome to have PHP7 included in the alternatives. Let me know if I can help.

ccat /directory/name doesn't warn that target is a directory

ccat /directory/name does not warn that the target is a directory – it simply returns with exit code 0 and nothing printed to screen. While not a serious issue, considering the user will likely discover their error, it does have potential to cause unnecessary confusion.

cat returns the following: cat: /directory/name: Is a directory with exit code 1

OS X 10.11.5 / ccat v1.1.0

Support 256 color terminals (at least)

Let us pass in a 3 digit number such as

ccat -G String="248" FILE

Then we could significantly customize the colors to our preferences.

ccat pipe into less not coloring syntax

Title is pretty self explanatory but if you ccat file.go | less the scrollable text is not colored. Not entirely sure if you can color something and then pipe it but if you can it would be a nice feature to run through long files using less to scroll

Screenshots and/or Recordings

Support for markdown would be nice.

nice colors?

Defining the comments on the command line (or automatically).

Hi,

If I just :
#ccat ~/.tcshrc
I can see that the comments are not displayed in lightgrey.
It could be useful to be able to define what a comment is and to automatically set it depending on the kind of file.
shell script, .bashrc, .tcshrc, ... => #
text file => none or user-defined
verilog => //
...

Either ccat could recognize the file type or the user could define the comment with a -comment = ... argument.
multi-line arguments will be more tricky but lets start with a simple stuff.

Regards.

Xuo.
