ubiquity-rdoc, better rdoc searching

rubyonrails-talk
1

Hi everyone,

I wrote a set of Mozilla Ubiquity commands that allow the user to search on rdocs, also featuring autocomplete, load of any rdoc hosted on the web and changing the default rdoc when searching.

The project is hosted here: http://projects.talleye.com/ubiquity-rdoc

and GitHub.

Please, let me know any bug, suggestion, etc

wow, awesome! now i know how much i missed that :slight_smile:

maybe we could extend it a bit to jump directly to a specific method? say 'rdoc String#delete' gives us the rdoc for String's delete method (right now i'd have to get my hand off the keyboard to select it from the list). this has definitely the potential to become my new favourite rdoc browser. thanks for sharing!

Hi Jean,

Yesterday I started a branch on Github for working in persistent indexes when using rdoc-load. But improvements on search is also in my todo list.

Anyone could contribute, of course.

Thanks for the suggestion,

Cipriani

You guys could hook it into LogLibrary.com is for sale | HugeDomains. This
takes the syntax like Ruby Array#size or Ruby Array size or just
distance_of_time_words or just Array and will link you right to the
documentation.
