Fuzzy find among projects lines, and use globs to filter filtes

[pure-bliss]

Hi!

I'm trying to create a fzf-lua call, that fits all my needs. I'm using grep_project to fuzzy search among all of the lines of the project. I'd like to extend this functionality by being able to use globs.

Right now I use:

require("fzf-lua").grep_project({ fzf_opts = { ["--nth"] = "2..", ["--delimiter"] = ":" } })

If I open this search, and type in NodeToolbar -- !*test* then the globs are not used as intended. However if I hit <C-g> to switch to Regex search, then it works, but then its not a fuzzy search.

Is it possible to achieve this functionality?

I tried my best to find a solution online, or generate one with AI, but nothing I found worked

Here is my fzf-lua config

require("fzf-lua").setup({
	winopts = {
		height = 0.97,
		width = 0.97,
		border = "single",
		preview = {
			scrollbar = false,
			layout = "vertical",
			vertical = "down:65%",
		},
	},
	grep = { rg_glob = true },
	lsp = {
		code_actions = {
			previewer = "codeaction_native",
			preview_pager = "delta --side-by-side --width=$FZF_PREVIEW_COLUMNS --hunk-header-style='omit' --file-style='omit'",
		},
	},
	keymap = {
		builtin = {
			["<down>"] = "preview-page-down",
			["<up>"] = "preview-page-up",
		},
		fzf = {
			["down"] = "preview-page-down",
			["up"] = "preview-page-up",
		},
	},
})

What you want is to feed all lines of the desired globs in order to fuzzy match, for that use an empty search term -- !*test* (space before double hyphen) and press ctrl-g twice (if starting from grep project), you can then fuzzy match the selected globs.

To start directly with the glob :lua FzfLua.grep({search=' -- !*test*', no_esc=true}).

Possible to do it interactively with transform-search action:
https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/blob/ba6d1b8772ce5e75ff999dcca21c0fadb689d7bf/CHANGELOG.md#L129

EDIT: fail to sleep again, take it away...

M.grep_project_glob = function()
  local last_gq
  local cmd = 'rg --column --line-number --no-heading --color=always --smart-case'
  local actions = require('fzf-lua.actions')
  require('fzf-lua').fzf_exec(('%s ""'):format(cmd), {
    previewer = 'builtin',
    actions = {
      ['enter'] = actions.file_edit_or_qf,
      ['ctrl-s'] = actions.file_split,
      ['ctrl-v'] = actions.file_vsplit,
      ['ctrl-t'] = actions.file_tabedit,
      ['alt-q'] = actions.file_sel_to_qf,
      ['alt-Q'] = actions.file_sel_to_ll,
      change = {
        fn = function() end,
        exec_silent = true,
        postfix = 'transform:'
          .. require('fzf-lua.shell').raw_action(function(sel)
            local sq, gq = unpack(vim.split(unpack(sel), '%s%-%-%s'))
            local gq_changed = gq ~= last_gq
            last_gq = gq
            if gq_changed then return ('reload(%s "" --iglob %q)+search:%s'):format(cmd, gq, sq) end
            return ('+search:%s'):format(sq)
          end, '{q}'),
      },
    },
  })
end

Thanks guys, booth of the methods work, the custom fzf command packs it all together, I think I'll use that. Thanks again!
