Trait SearchEngine 

pub trait SearchEngine: Send + Sync {
    // Required method
    fn search(
        &self,
        query: &str,
        path: &Path,
        options: &SearchOptions,
    ) -> Result<Vec<SearchResult>, Box<dyn Error>>;
}

Trait for search engine implementations

This trait allows different search strategies to be implemented and tested independently. It enables dependency injection and makes the code more testable by allowing mock implementations.

Examples

use codesearch::traits::SearchEngine;
use codesearch::types::{SearchOptions, SearchResult};
use std::path::Path;

struct MockSearchEngine;

impl SearchEngine for MockSearchEngine {
    fn search(&self, query: &str, path: &Path, options: &SearchOptions)
        -> Result<Vec<SearchResult>, Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
        // Return mock results for testing
        Ok(vec![])
    }
}

Required Methods

fn search( &self, query: &str, path: &Path, options: &SearchOptions, ) -> Result<Vec<SearchResult>, Box<dyn Error>>

Search for patterns in code files

Arguments

• query - The search pattern (regex or literal)
• path - The directory path to search in
• options - Search configuration options

Returns

A vector of search results or an error

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
