Search engines for Butler

During development, you constantly need to search for stuff on the web, but previously you had to:

  • Open the reference browser
  • Open a new tab
  • Type your query

Now, you can quickly and easily do this from Butler 🥳

The search options will appear when there are no other matches found in $butler$. If there's still a match but you want to search for something you can add a space after your query.

Soon, we'll add keywords to Butler so you'll be able to trigger the searches by typing in a keyword (for example: g styled-components for searching google)

By default, you can search Google, npm, Stack Overflow, and GitHub, but you can customize the built-in search engines, remove them, and add new ones by going to Settings -> Butler -> Search Engines .

Note: The URLs must contain {{search}} for the search engine to be valid, for example: https://github.com/search?q={{search}}
