Zoekt is a fast trigram-based text search engine designed for searching source code across many repositories. It ships CLI indexers for directories and git repos plus a web server UI, and is now actively developed under sourcegraph/zoekt.
Use cases
- search across all my company's source code
- index git repositories for fast code search
- run a self-hosted code search web server
- find symbols and identifiers across a large codebase
- mirror and index GitHub orgs automatically
- grep-like search over monorepos
When to choose
- you need fast full-text or symbol search over many repositories
- you want a self-hosted code search service with a web UI
- you need git branch-aware indexing of source code
When to avoid
- you need natural-language or semantic search rather than exact text matching
- you need a general-purpose document search engine with ranking features like Elasticsearch
- the project's active development has moved to sourcegraph/zoekt and you want latest features
