  # Food

  # Food

echo -e "Food\nDrink\nSnacks" | ish 'fdd' 'Dink'
  # Drink

JSON Output (simple and raw-string)

echo -e "Food\nDrink\nSnacks" | ish 'fodd' --json
  # "Food"

echo "Food" | ish 'food' --json-string
  # "\"Food\""

All matches Output

Listing all possible matches, left to right, best to worst.

echo -e "Food\nFodge\nFreak" | ish 'fo' --all --json
  # [ "Food", "Fodge", "Freak" ]

echo -e "Food\nFodge\nFreak" | ish 'fo' --all
  # Food
  # Fodge
  # Freak

You can also match each line, individually, from a stream of lines. Each line is matched individually against the possible matches, left to right, best to worse.

  echo -e "cat cat kat\nkat kat kat\ndog dog alligator | ish --line 'dog' 'cat'

  # cat
  # kat
  # dog

About

Heavily leveraging fuse.js (I mean heavy, like most-of-the-real-code), to make cli fuzzy matching, and outputing to other programs like jq, fx, eat, gron, easy and fun.
